1. I am sure that since winter is approaching, your skates are set to come out, just waiting to be used. Impress your friends with your new trick on how to ice-skate backwards with the help of these tips.

Stand straight

The first thing that you need to do is: stand straight. 2. , if you feel that you are falling backwards. Don’t worry; this happens to all.

Confidence is what you need

The most important step while learning how to skate backwards is having enough confidence in yourself and in what you are doing. How can you achieve this? By practice. One of the important ice skating tips and techniques is that if you feel that you are losing your balance, then scissor（做剪式運動）your skates. 3. .

Maintain/keep speed

Try sculling（滑）with one skate while rolling in a straight line with the other. That is, keep pushing yourself backwards with an outwards stroke（滑動）. Now bring the skate which you are using to scull, and then again, repeat the same process. Make sure that you put most of your weight on the skate which is moving straight and not the one with which you are sculling.

Now, try the same thing using the other foot.

4. .

Once you are confident that you can scull with either foot, the next thing that you have to do is increase your speed. Try some of your own tricks now. Scull with either foot or with both at the same time.

Scull and be aware

While you keep one foot straight, keep sculling with the other. You can do that with both feet at the same time. 5. , but don’t get so involved that you don’t see where you are going. If you are not watching your back, you might just bang against something or someone.

 

A. Don’t you just love ice skating every winter?

B. While going backwards, just get used to the feeling of moving backwards

C. Keep practicing this till you are confident about it

D. Increase your speed now

E. One must be brave enough to learn to ice-skate backwards

F. Concentrate on what you are doing

G. Just put your chin up and slightly bend your knees

"Do you like my dress?" she asked a passing stranger. "My mommy made it just for me." She said with tears in her eyes.

"I think it’s very pretty, but why are you crying?"

With a quiver（顫抖）in her voice the girl answered "After Mommy made me this dress she had to go to the heaven（天堂）Finally the woman realized what the child meant. She gently held the child in her arms and together they cried for the mommy that was gone.

Then suddenly the little girl stopped crying, stepped back and began to sing. She sang so softly that it was almost a whisper. It was the sweetest sound the woman had ever heard almost like the song of a very small bird.

After the child stopped singing she explained to the lady: "My mommy used that song to me before she went away, and she made me promise to sing it whenever I started crying and it would make me stop."

"See," she said, "it did, and now my eyes are dry!"

As the woman turned to go, the little girl grabbed her sleeve（袖子）. "Madam, can you stay just a minute? I want to show you something."

"Of course", she answered.

Pointing to a spot on her dress, she said: "Right here is where my mommy kissed my dress and here," pointing to another spot, "and here is another kiss, and here, and here. Mommy said that she put all those kisses so that I would have her kisses for everything that made me cry."

Then the lady realized that she wasn't just looking at a dress, no, she was looking at a mother...who knew that she was going away and would not be there to kiss away the hurt that she knew her daughter would get. So she took all the love she had for her beautiful little girl and put them into this dress that her child now so proudly wore.

We’re trying to decide where to go on our vacation this summer. We usually go to the Lake Arrowhead for a few weeks, but we’d like to go somewhere else this year. We’re tired of doing the same thing summer after summer. Some friends of ours suggested that we go to Hawaii. That would be wonderful! I’m sure we’d enjoy a trip like that, but of course it’s out of the question. In the first place, it would be rather expensive, and in the second place, there wouldn’t be enough time. If we’re lucky enough to save some money between now and next summer, and if I’m lucky enough to get four weeks of vacation instead of two weeks, maybe we can go to Hawaii next year. As a matter of fact, if we wanted to plan a trip like that, it might be advisable to stay home this summer and not go any place. That’s one way we could begin to save some money for next year’s trip. Also, if we were to stay here, I could offer to work instead of taking two weeks off; then maybe my boss would suggest that I be given four weeks’ vacation next summer instead of two weeks.

From bankers to factory staff, employees in the West face a cold prospect of losing their jobs as a global recession(衰退) starts to bite. For colleagues in the East, the pain is more likely to come through a pay cut.

Human resource experts say cultural differences explain why Asian companies try harder to preserve jobs in difficult times, which will prevent unemployment and may help Asian economies survive at a time of slowing exports. The East Asian attitude may also make it easier for companies to recover quickly from the economic downturn since they will not need to rehire or train new staff, but build up a more loyal and devoted group.

"In the Confucian mindset(儒家思想), the right thing to do is to share the burden（負擔）, which is the sense of collective responsibility. While in the West, it's more about individual survival," said Michael Benoliel, associate professor of organizational behavior at Singapore Management University (SMU).

In contrast, local Western companies from General Motors to Goldman Sachs plan to lay off workers by the thousands, but at the Asian units of Western multinationals or western units of Asian groups, job cuts will probably be less severe.

Japan's jobless rate was 4 percent in September, up from 3.8 percent in January, while Hong Kong's was flat at 3.4 percent. But US unemployment is expected to have jumped to 6.3 percent last month from below 5 percent in January.

Experts say that while there are noticeable differences in labor practices in East and West, the gap will narrow as more firms become more multinational and competition forces firms to adopt the best practices of rivals(對手) from abroad.

1.The underlined word "prospect" in the first paragraph most probably means _________.

A. future B. scene

C. weather D. place

2.Compared with job cuts, pay cuts can bring the following benefits EXCEPT that _________.

A. it's helpful to the economy recovery

B. it can form a team working harder and more loyally

C. it will keep the experienced and skilled workers

D. it costs the company less money to survive

3.According to Michael Benoliel, the Confucian mindset focuses on _________.

A. human rights

B. personal profits

C. sharing responsibility

D. individual survival

4.The passage mainly tells us ________.

A. the difficulties all the companies around the world will meet with today

B. the different labor solutions of Asian and Western in global recession

C. the ways to cut down the cost of the companies in economic downturn

D. the cultural differences between Eastern and Western world at present
