　　In today’s world English is the most wildly used language．It is our duty to learn English in the new situation of the reform and opening(改革開放)to the outside world．How can we master the English language? I’d like to give you some good advice．

　　First, get interested in it．I enjoy listening to foreign friends talking when I was a child．At the same time I watched the English programme Follow Me on TV．From then on, I kept on learning English．The more I learned, the more progress I made．

　　Second, practice makes perfect．Many people study English very hard, but they are very shy to speak it in public, for they are afraid of making mistakes．Remember you have to make a mistake before you can correct it．A native English speaker makes mistakes sometimes, too．

　　The Peales were a famous family of American artists．Charles Willson Peale is best remembered for his portraits of leading figures of the American Revolution．He painted portraits of Franklin and Jefferson and over a dozen of George Washington．His life-size portrait of his sons Raphaelle and Titian was so realistic that George Washington reportedly once tipped his hat to the figures in the picture．

　　Charles Willson Peale gave up painting in his middle age and devoted his life to the Peale museum, which he founded in Philadelphia．The world’s first popular museum of art and natural science mainly covered paintings by Peale and his family as well as displays of animals in their natural settings．Peale found the animals himself and found a method to make the exhibits more lifelike．The museum’s most popular display was the skeleton(骷髏)of a huge, extinct elephant, which Peale unearthed on a New York farm in 1801．

　　Everyone has got two personalities－the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real．You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your behaviour, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you．In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position．The important position is the one that you go to sleep in．

　　If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person．You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas．You don't like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings．You're quite shy and you aren't very confident．

　　If you sleep curled up(卷曲), you are probably a very nervous person．You have a low opinion of yourself and so you're often defensive．You're shy and you don't normally like meeting people．You prefer to be on your own．You're easily hurt．

　　If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality．You know your strengths and weaknesses．You're usually careful．You have a confident personality．You sometimes feel anxious, but you don't often get depressed．You always say what you think even if it annoys people．

　　Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables．"Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure," says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members．"But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now．"
