Whether at home or in a restaurant, meals in Brazil are sacred(神圣的) ; a time to ea

Whether at home or in a restaurant, meals in Brazil are sacred(神圣的) ; a time to eat, but also to share precious moments with family and friends. Now, here's a Brazilian custom I miss enormously: a decent, sit-down, leisurely-paced lunch and/or dinner. To this day, I have to keep reminding myself, "what's the big hurry? " and I confess that one of the things I look forward to, when I go to Brazil, is the "family" meal. We have a joke that, if you see people sitting around a table in the US, having lunch for longer than 1/2 hour, it must be a business lunch. And also, sitting at your desk and eating lunch while you work is incomprehensible to most Brazilians, who leave their offices to eat with their colleagues and friends in restaurants and cafes. You guess, lunch is usually a more substantial meal than in the U.S.

(68) For lunch and, depending on the location, also dinner, Brazilians have wonderful, inexpensive restaurants where home-style. meals are sold by kilo. You just pile the food on your plate and someone will weigh it for you. The same goes for desserts. You order drinks from your waiter and pay him at the end of your meal.

Dinner is served much later than in the U. S. In the big cities, children are a common sight in restaurants at night, since Brazilians will take their kids out to dinner at all hours. As a result of this and the traditional Sunday lunches, Brazilian kids learn table manners at an early age. For many of my Brazilian friends, dinner is a lighter meal of bread, cheese and cold cuts. So expect either type of meal.

In Brazil, people usually have meals______.

A.in a hurry at restaurants

B.in a leisurely manner

C.at their desk in the office

D.for less than 1/2 hour

Many people think there is no need to take special care over home security."I'm all right,

Many people think there is no need to take special care over home security.

"I'm all right, I'm insured".

Maybe—if you're fully insured. Even then you can never recover the real value you place upon your possessions. But you can't insure against the upset and unhappiness that we all feel if our homes are seriously damaged by some stranger, our windows and doors smashed, our precious possessions ruined.

"It won't happen to me".

Won't it? A home is broken into almost every minute of the day. Thefts of all kinds, including cars and property stolen, happen twice as frequently.

"I've nothing worth stealing".

You may think not. But in fact every one has something worth a thief's attention. And we all have things of special value to us even if they're worth little or nothing in cash terms.

"I'm only a tenant here".

The thief doesn't care whether you're a tenant or an owner-occupier. You're just as likely to be robbed. Have a word with the owner of the house if you think extra locks and fastenings are necessary.

"They'll get in any way".

Most thieves are always looking for easy jobs. They are soon discouraged by houses they can't get into quickly and easily. So it's worth taking care.

This booklet will help you—It's based on the practical experience of police forces throughout the country. Most of the suggestions will cost you only a few minutes extra time and thought. A few may involve some expense, but this is small compared with the loss and unhappiness you might otherwise suffer. If you are in doubt, ask for free advice from the Crime Prevention Officer at your local police station.

Why should you still worry about protecting your possessions when you have insured them?

A.You tend to undervalue your possessions.

B.You cannot insure against any damage to property.

C.A robbery can ruin your happiness at home.

D.It takes a long time to recover all your money.

Whether in your life or work, the following things are not the reasons for you to feel embarrassed. It’s OK and just move on.

1. Mistakes while learning

There will be times when you have people above you (a boss) or even next to you (a coworker) that will get really annoyed with you for “ruining” something “important”.

36__________ Even if you make mistakes and get a punishment, persevere and push on. You do not need to be embarrassed for learning from your mistakes.

2. Food choices

People are different and have different taste buds (味蕾). Whether it is healthy or not, food is a choice and it is part of life. 37__________ You do not need to be embarrassed for food you do or do not like. Tell them, “It is a personal choice I have made, and I am committed to it.”

3. Your past

Allowing positive experiences to define, limit, improve, and outshine (凸显) you may cause you to be caught up in the past and unable to truly live in the present. Whether your history is positive, negative, or somewhere in between, don’t hold on to the negative experiences and let it reflect your current behavior. 38__________

4. The clean lines of your car / home / workspaceWhen everyone gets in the car, you realize your Starbuck bags are still on the floor. So what Think about it this way: everyone has a “messy” aspect of their life. Maybe their home is completely clean, but the relationship with their spouse (配偶) is messy. Someone’s car gets washed once a week, but his/her work life could use some help.

39__________ We don’t apologize to others about our personal limitations. By being outwardly embarrassed, it only brings more attention to the fact!

5. Putting yourself first

If you find yourself saying no to something or making up lies to get out of it, tell them the truth, and don’t apologize. You will feel much better in the long run if you are honest with them and yourself. If you’re not up to a voluntary duty, you don’t have to be. You can politely refuse the person’s request.

40__________ Put yourself first.

A. It is simply a personal choice that people make for their own reasons.

B. It is okay to be selfish from time to time.

C. Errors are bound to happen when you have on your training wheels.

D. Each of them waits for your immediate help.

E. Let bygones (过去的事) be bygones.

F. Forgetting history means betrayal.

G. No one on Earth lives a perfectly “clean” life in every aspect.

A new study suggests that contrary to most surveys. People art actually more stressed at h
ome than at work. Researchers measured people’s cortntlol. Which is it at stress marker. While they were at work and while they were at home and found it higher at what is supposed to be a place of refuge.

“Further contradicting conventional wisdom, we found that women as well as men have lower levels of stress at work than at home,” writes one of the researchers. Sarah Damaske, In fact women say they feel better at work. She notes. “it is men not women. Who report being bappicr at home than at work,” Another surprise is that the findings hold true for both those with childrcn and without, but more so for nonparents. This is why pcoplc who work outside the home have better health.

What the study doesn’t measure is whether people are still doing work when they’ re at home, whether it is household work or work brought home from the office. For many men, the end of the workday is a time to kick back. For women who stay home, they never get to leave the office. And for women who work outside the home, they often are playing catch-up-with-household tasks. With the blurring of roles, and the fact that the home front lags well behind the workplace in making adjustments for working women, it’ s not surprising that women are more stressed at home.

But it’s not just a gender thing. At work, people pretty much know what they’re supposed to be doing: working, making money, doing the tasks they have to do in order to draw an income. The bargain is very pure: Employee puts in hours of physical or mental labor and employee draws out life-sustaining moola.

On the home front, however, people have no such clarity. Rare is the household in which the division of labor is so clinically and methodically laid out. There are a lot of tasks to be done, there are inadequate rewards for most of them. Your home colleagues-your family-have no clear rewards for their labor; they need to be talked into it, or if they’ re teenagers, threatened with complete removal of all electronic devices. Plus, they’ re your family. You cannot fire your family. You never really get to go home from home.

So it’s not surprising that people are more stressed at home. Not only are the tasks apparently infinite, the co-workers are much harder to motivate.

According to Paragraph 1,most previous surveys found that home______ .

A.was an un realistic place for relaxation

B.generated more stress than the workplace

C.was an ideal place for stress measurement

D.offered greater relaxation than the workplace

According to Damaske, who are likely to be the happiest at home?A.Working mothers

B.Childless husbands

C.Childless wives

D.Working fathers

The home front differs from the workplace in that______ .A.home is hardly a cozier working environment

B.division of labor at home is seldom clear-cut

C.household tasks are generally more motivating

D.family labor is often adequately rewarded

The word“moola”(Line 4,Para 4)most probably means______ .A.energy

B.skills

C.earnings

D.nutrition

The blurring of working women’s roles refers to the fact that______ .A.they are both bread winners and housewives

B.their home is also a place for kicking back

C.there is often much housework left behind

D.it is difficult for them to leave their office
