Reporter: Why did you start this new website for Alcott Middle School?

Sarah: Three months ago, my mom was complaining about how she never hears about the days our school ends early until after the fact. She works late and sometimes she has to ask our neighbor at the last minute to pick me up after school. It happened several times, and she was frustrated that there wasn’t better notification (通知) from the school.

Reporter: Didn’t your school already have a website with that information?

Sarah: We had a website. But there wasn’t much information on it, and nobody was in charge of keeping it up to date (包含最新信息的). I asked my teacher if our class could update the school calendar. That seemed pretty easy.

Reporter: Was it?

Sarah: Yeah, and it was kind of fun. So then we asked the principal (校長) if we could redo the whole site. He said okay, so we went to work. We discovered websites that taught us how to make our site look better and added more hot links that people could click to get more information about a subject. We posted photos from basketball games. Our class even started a blog about what’s going on at school. Then we persuaded the teachers to create their own pages.

Reporter: So what’s next?

Sarah: A few friends and I started a small Web design business. We’re asking other schools if they’ll employ (雇用) us to set up a site like the one we created.

Reporter: Wow! That’s pretty enterprising (有事業(yè)心的) for a 13-year-old.

Sarah: I guess so. But it doesn’t seem like work when you’re doing something you enjoy.

Building Trust in a Relationship Again

Trust (信任)is a learned behavior(習(xí)得行為) that we gain from past experiences(以往經(jīng)歷). 1.Trust is a risk.But you can’t be successful when there’s a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.

Unfortunately，we’ve all been victims of betrayal（背信）.Whether we’ve been stolen from，lied被欺騙 to，misled被誤導(dǎo)，or cheated on被哄騙，there are different levels of losing trust.Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore（有時(shí)候人們就是不能再信任別人）. 2. It’s understandable（可理解的），but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship（人際關(guān)系） again，we have some steps you can take to get you there.

3. Having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome結(jié)果 would be for your well-being幸福.

4.If you’ve been betrayed(如果你遭遇了背叛)，you are the victim(受害者) of your circumstance(客觀環(huán)境).But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”(“受害者的心態(tài)”).At some point in all of our lives，we’ll have our trust tested or violated. 被破壞

You didn’t lose “everything”.Once trust is lost，what is left? Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle角度，look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life.5.Instead，it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room余地 for positive growth and forgiveness(寬恕).

A.Learn to really trust yourself.

B.It is putting confidence in someone(對(duì)某人寄托信任).

C.Stop regarding yourself as the victim.

D.Remember that you can expect the best in return.

AB.They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again. .(他們曾經(jīng)受過嚴(yán)重傷害，不能容忍這種事情再次發(fā)生。)

AC.This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.

AD.Seeing the positive（積極的） side of things doesn’t mean you’re ignoring(忽視) what happened.

Easy Ways to Reach and Keep a Healthy Weight

Weight loss is most likely to be successful when people change their habits, replacing old, unhealthy ones with new, healthy ones. Here are 5 ways to make that happen.

1.Exercises.

1. Walking the family dog, cycling to school and doing other things that increase your daily level of activity can all make a difference. If you want to burn more calories, increase the intensity of your workout and add some strength exercise to build muscles. The more muscle you have, the more calories you burn, even when you aren't exercise.

2. 2.

One reason people get less exercise these days is an increase in screen time-- the amount of time spent watching TV, surfing the Internet or playing video games. Limit recreational screen time to less than 2 hours per day.

3. Watch out for sugary drinks.

One key factor in weight gain is that some people drink lots of sugary drinks, such as soda, juice drinks and sports drinks. 3.

4. Eat 5 servings of fruit and vegetables a day.

4. They're also packed with fiber, which means they can fill you up. And when you fill yourself up on fruit and vegetables, you are less likely to overeat when it comes to high-calorie foods like chips and cookies.

5. 5.

Breakfast can promote your metabolism(新陳代謝), burning calories and giving you energy to do more during the day. People who skip(跳過) breakfast often feel so hungry that they eat more later on. So they get more calories than they would have if they didn't eat breakfast.

A. Reduce screen time.

B. Don't skip breakfast.

C. So go for water or low-fat milk instead of sugary drinks.

D. Diets aren't the way to go when it comes to losing weight.

E. Fruit and vegetables are about more than just vitamins and minerals..

F. Most dieters gain back all the lost weight when they go back to their old eating habits.

G. Regular physical activity burns calories and builds muscles, both of which help you look and feel good and keep weight off.

The Science of Risk-Seeking

Sometimes we decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when we weight the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth taking. 1. Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it may have to do with how our brain work.

The reason why any of us take any risks at all might have to do with early humans. Risk-taking were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. 2. As the quality of risk-taking was passed from on ration to the next, humans ended up with a sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.

So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years ago, too much risk-taking could get one killed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it.3.

No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientist say that willingness to take risk increases during your teenage years.4. To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experience. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.

5., for the risk-seeker a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.

As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we’ll continue to hit mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.

A. It all depends on your character.

B. Those are the risks you should jump to take.

C. Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.

D. Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.

E. This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.

F. However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weight risks and rewards.

G. New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous situation.
