We all know the importance of curiosity, and here are some tips on how to develop it.
Keep an open mind. This is essential if you are to have a curious mind. Be open to learning, unlearning, and relearning things. Therefore, you should be prepared to accept this possibility and change your mind.
Most people just accept the world as it is. This way, they will certainly lose the “holy curiosity”. Try to dig deeper beneath the surface of what is around you. A sure way to dig deeper beneath the surface is asking questions. What, why, when, who, where, and how are the questions curious people always ask.
Don’t label anything as boring. Whenever you label something as boring, you close one more door of possibilities. Curious people are unlikely to consider things boring. Even if they don’t yet have time to explore them, they will leave the door open to be visited another time.
Take learning as something fun. If you see learning as a burden, there’s no way you will want to dig deeper into anything. That will just make the burden heavier. However, if you think of learning as something fun, you will naturally want to dig deeper.
Read diverse materials. It will introduce you to the possibilities and excitement of other worlds which may attract your interest in exploring further. One easy way to do this is through reading diverse materials. It’ll feed your mind with the excitement of a new world.
| A．It doesn’t matter that you don’t agree to others’ opinions. |
| B．Try to pick a book or magazine on a new subject. |
| C．Some things you know and believe might be wrong. |
| D．Don’t spend too much time on just one world. |
E. Never take things as granted.
F. So look at life through the glasses of fun and enjoy the learning process.
G. Instead, they always see these things as a door to an exciting new world.

阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

F.Give others chances to talk about themselves.
G.Some ways to make people like you_____________
Studies show that the word that people say more than any other word is “I”. People love to talk about themselves, their lives, their hobbies, their families, their passions, etc. when you become interested in people, ask them questions and allow them to talk. They will like you for that.______________
We’ve all been in situations where you recognize a person but can’t remember his/ her name. it’s awkward, uncomfortable and sometimes embarrassing. If you want to make people like you, you need to begin to remember their names. Develop a system. When you meet someone use his/ her name 3 times in your conversation, or write down his/ her name in a notebook with some notes about him/her after the conversation.________________
Listening is an active process. It is much more than being silent. It involves empathy, which is to walk in the speaker’s shoes and understand his/ her feeling. Listening is a skill that is developed with practice and as you master it, people will like you more and more._________________
People love it when you talk to them in terms of their interests. They love it when you are knowledgeable on subjects they enjoy. They love it when you can have intelligent conversation with them about what matters most to them. One way to do this is to study topics of their interests before you meet with people. If you know that you will have a business lunch with a huge baseball fan, then take some time to broaden your knowledge of the game.________________
Making people feel they are important can be done in all kinds of ways. You can give a compliment, remember their birthday or a spe4cial occasion, recognize them for their skills and contribution or give them a gift. Leave every person happier for having met you.

Helping Students Find Their Writing Voices
One of the most frustrating things for writing teachers is reading papers that simply lack style. When all of the research has been completed and all of the sentences are structured well, but the paper still lacks some pizzazz（活力），it can be boring to grade. If you are searching for ways to help your students find their voices, why not try making students themselves the topic of the writing?
Who are you?
One of the most difficult questions for students to answer is: “Who are you?” _
