[1] Most gift-giving shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it is possible to form some associations between the kinds of things bought and the people who buy them. [2] Clothing The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be seen but how you see yourself as well. When someone gives you something to wear that corresponds to your self-image, theyre saying, I agree with you. I like you the way you are. Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment. On the other hand, a gift of clothing that does not match your personality could be an insult to your character.[3] Expensive gifts Naturally, some gifts like jewellry will be more expensive than others. But some people give higher priced gifts than necessary for the situation. Someone who gives an expensive gift often feels that he should receive more praise than if he had given a less expensive gift. Therefore he is giving himself a gift, too: status.[4] Homemade gifts Making something by hand become the exception on many countries today— so much so that giving a homemade gift is sometimes considered extraordinary. If you receive a homemade gift, youre lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. No matter what the results of the homemade gift look like, remember its the thought that counts.[5] Books People who gives books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. A good way to know this is to find out whether or not the giver bought the book according to how large it is. If you happen to receive a large heavy book, its giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Anyhow, giving a book can be a way of sharing a feeling or a newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.

[1] One Sunday, Nick Tyler went with his aunt and uncle to see the Acropolis, the famous hill in the city of Athens.On their way they stopped at a large white marble stadium that the Greeks had built in 330 B.C.The Greek nation had rebuilt it in 143 A.D., and then again in 1896 for the first modern Olympic Games.How thrilled the athletes must have been, Nick thought, to perform in such a stadium.[2] Soon the Tylers arrived at the Acropolis itself.They climbed many steps to reach the top, and there they stood before the ruins of the beautiful Parthenon.Nick had seen pictures of the temple before, but the actual sight of the structure gave him an unexpected pleasure.Its design and proportion were perfect.[3] The Greeks had built the Parthenon during their Golden Age, and it should have lasted for thousands of years, but it didnt.According to one of the guides near the gate, an army had once used the temple as a storehouse for ammunition; then during a battle, it had exploded and left the building in ruins.Nick thought the soldiers ought not to have put the ammunition there; surely they could have kept it in another place.However, they probably never imagined that there would be such an explosion.Or perhaps they might not have appreciated the beautiful design of the fine structure.[4] Nick and his relatives also visited one of the smaller structures on the Acropolis, and then they went down to the marketplace of old Athens.The early Greeks must have liked to buy things in the shops there; they could always look up and see the beautiful temple on the hill.[5] Afterwards, the Tylers stopped at a place which some people believe is the actual building where Socrates spent his last days.Nick felt sad when he thought of the death of that great teacher.Socrates, however, would have been very happy to know that many of his ideas still live today.[6] When they returned home, Nick thanked his aunt and uncle for the interesting afternoon.They had been glad to show him the most famous monuments in their city.They had wanted to take him to other places that day, but there was not enough time.However, Nick would be in Athens for a whole year, and he would have many more Sundays for sightseeing and such experiences.

[1] Many primitive peoples believed that by eating an animal they could get some of the good qualities of that animal for themselves. They thought, for example, that eating deer would make them run as fast as the deer. Some savage tribes believed that eating enemies that had shown bravery in battle would make them brave.Man-eating may have started because people were eager to become as strong and brave as their enemies.[2] Among civilized people it was once thought that ginger root by some magical power could improve the memory. Eggs were thought to make the voice pretty.Tomatoes were also believed to have magical powers. They were called love apples and were supposed to make people who ate them fall in love.[3] Later another wrong idea about tomatoes grew upthe idea that they were poisonous. How surprised the people who thought tomatoes poisonous would be if they could know that millions of pounds of tomatoes were supplied to soldiers overseas during World War II.[4] Even today there are a great many wrong ideas about food. Some of them are very widespread.[5] One such idea is that fish is the best brain food. Fish is good brain food just as it is good muscle food and skin food and bone food. But no one has been able to prove that fish is any better for the brain than many other kinds of food.[6] Another such idea is that you should not drink water with meals. Washing food down with water as a substitute for chewing is not a good idea, but some water with meals has been found to be helpful. It makes the digestive juices flow more freely and helps to digest the food.[7] Many of the ideas that have no foundation, according to scientists, have to do with mixtures of foods. A few years ago the belief became general that orange juice and milk should never be drunk at the same meal. The reason given was that the acid in the orange juice would make the milk curdle and become indigestible. As a matter of fact, milk always meets in the stomach a digestive juice which curdles it; the curdling of the milk is the first step in its digestion. A similar wrong idea is that fish and ice cream when eaten at the same meal form a poisonous combination.[8] Still another wrong idea about mixing foods is that proteins and carbohydrates should never be eaten at the same meal. Many people think of bread, for example, as a carbohydrate food. It is chiefly a carbohydrate food, but it also contains proteins. In the same way, milk probably the single best food, contains both proteins and carbohydrates.It is just as foolish to say that one should never eat meat and potatoes together as it is to say that one should never eat bread or drink milk.

A dream is made up of a series of mind-pictures that form during sleep. The people and actions in these pictures seem real to the person who is dreaming. When a person is asleep, he has little or no control over his mind. Then ideas and feelings come out to form the mi奥鹏华中师范大学平时在线作业nd picture known as dreams.Dreams may be influenced by different things that are present during sleep. If a person is cold, he may dream that he is out in a snowstorm. Worries or anger may also influence the content of a dream..Some people think that they seldom dream, and other people are quite sure that they do not dream at all. Studies of human sleep have shown, though, that everyone dreams every night. If a person thinks he does not dream, it is because he does not remember dreaming when he wakes up. Usually, a person may dream three to seven times for a total of one or two hours of dreaming every night.Perhaps you are wondering just how research workers can be sure that a person is dreaming. The story behind the discovery is an interesting one.During their research studies of human sleep, Dr Kleitman and his assistants noticed that a person sleeping made sudden eye movements. These eye movements occurred at least several times a night. When a sleeper was awakened during these periods of eye movement, it was learned that he had been dreaming. In most cases, the dreamer could then recall his dream. The persons eye movements, scientists believe, were caused by the movements of his eyes as he followed the events of the dream. Not only does everyone dream, but it seems that we all need to dream. One theory is that dreaming gives us a chance to escape from the rules of our real world. In dreams we can see our wishes come true. We can be rich, powerful, successful.Another theory is that in our dream we are trying to work out our problems that have troubled us during waking moments.Whatever the explanation, we all do dream, and dreaming is necessary and important to us.
