When your pet is sick, you know it needs medication. But pets, like babies, don't know the pill you want them to take will help them.        Here are some tips to help get your pet to take liquid medicine.
      If the answer is yes, then your easiest path is to mix it with canned food. First give your hungry pet a small amount of canned food without the medication. It's important that the pet nibbles (一点一点地吃) at the food and sees that there's nothing wrong.
Next, while the pet is still hungry, mix the medication in a small amount of food and present it. Repeat as necessary to get the entire dose (剂量)down.     If the pet decides not to finish the meal, the dose will be wasted.
If the chemist says the medication cannot be taken with food, you need a syringe (注射器) or a dropper (滴管) to get the liquid down your pet's throat.
       Keep a cheerful tone in your voice so the pet doesn't sense your stress or hesitation. Position your pet where it cannot run away, perhaps having a dog sit with his back against a wall or chair ---- or a cat on your lap.
       Use your other hand to insert the syringe or dropper between the cheek and back teeth. Slowly squeeze the medication so the pet won't choke. Try to keep your pet's mouth closed for about 30 seconds until you see it has swallowed. If your pet is being obstinate (倔强的) , stroke (抚摸) its throat gently or blow on the face.
Be sure you end the process with praise and perhaps a treat so your pet will not associate medication with a bad experience.

A．Before you call your pet in, be sure to have the medication and any other materials you’ll need ready.

B．Once the pet is in position, use one hand to gently open the pet's mouth from above, tilting(倾斜) back the head slightly.

C．Ask the vet(兽医) if the liquid medication can be given with food.

D．You should know the reason why the pet refuses to take medicine.

E. Never mix the medication with the full meal.
F. They just know it smells funny and they don't want it.
G. Don’t force your pet to swallow all the medicine

●Does failure really exist ?
If you believe you have failed, then you have. If you believe you don’t have the ability to succeed, then you don’t.          The moment you decide to give up or stop working toward your goals, failure is born.
●   
Most people give themselves an out without even realizing it. They are willing to work hard on reaching their goals, but only until the going gets too rough or their energy dies down. Don’t do that!           Never quit, never admit failure, and never lose heart.
●Don’t believe in a clear finish line for goals.
It’s a good idea to set a general timeline, but remember that something will be beyond your control.           If you lock yourself into a given timeline, you might make yourself feel like a failure!  Instead, get a general idea of when you’d like your goal to be completed. Then take it one day at a time and focus on making progress instead of reaching the finish line in as little time as possible.
●Be sure that you don’t see difficulties as failures.
Difficulties mean only one thing: it’s not time for your goal to be completed yet. That’s it! It doesn’t mean you failed; it doesn’t mean you’re weak; it doesn’t mean you’ll never achieve your goals.      You’ve got to keep moving forward and find a way over, around, or through the difficulties.

A．Never give up on yourself.

B．Failure only exists in your own mind!

C．That’s exactly how failure makes us feel.

D．It simply means you have not done enough yet.

E. You can never say exactly when your goal will be reached.
F. Instead, make up your mind to make your goal happen, no matter what!
G. Work hard towards your goal, and you will be likely to get good results.

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
    Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. Still others keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases hormones (荷尔蒙) which speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc.         
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
____ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “   Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry.   

A．In general the person feels excited and ready to act.

B．They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.

C．Expressing anger violently is more harmful than repressing it.

D．Anger may cause you a cancer.

E. Do not express your anger while angr feel from time to time.

Snow is a subject of great interest to weather experts .       . One reason is that heavy amounts of snow fall in surprisingly small areas . Another reason is that a small change in temperature can mean the difference between snow and rain .
Just what is snow , anyway ? Snow is a form of frozen water .       . These crystals grow from water droplets in cold clouds . They usually grow around dust particles（颗粒）. All snow crystals have six sides , but they grow in different shapes . The shape depends mainly on the temperature and water levels in the air .
   . About two and one-half centimeters of rain has as much water as 15 centimeters of wet snow . About 76 centimeters of dry snow equals the water in two and one-half centimeters of rain .
Snowfall helps to protect plants and some wild animals from winter weather . Fresh snow is made largely of air trapped among the snow crystals .      .
Snow can also influence the movement of sound waves . When there is fresh , soft snow on the ground , the surface of the snow absorbs , or takes in , sound waves .      . Then , the snow’s surface will help to send back sound waves . Under these conditions , sounds may seem clearer and may travel farther .

A．Much of the water the world uses comes from snow .

B．It contains groups of ice particles called snow crystals .

C．It is difficult to predict where , when or how much snow will fall .

D．Under some conditions , these particles may grow larger and form solid pieces of ice .

E. Snow contains much less water than rain .
F. However , snow can become hard and flat as it grows older or if there have been strong winds .
G. Because the air has trouble moving , the movement of heat is limited .

As Nicole and Mike Zupan get closer to retirement, they worry about more than just covering their own living expenses for the next several decades.
 He is autistic(患自闭症的) and may never be able to live on his own. Their idea of retirement is to live a quiet life close to their son.   They want to create a special needs trust to help pay for treatment and other expenses he might face as an adult.
“Because of our son’s needs, I guess I never really considered true retirement for us,” she says.
 She is to attend college in a few years.
The Zupans’ ideal plan is for Mike, 60, to retire first, in five to seven years, and for Nicole, 52, to continue working for several years beyond that before she joins him in retirement.
But before they can get there, they want to pay off the $18,000 in credit card debt, partly because their son’s treatment is not covered by insurance. They have about $230,000 left on the mortgage(按揭) for their home in Fairfax County, Va., which they assess will take about 12 years to pay off.     
Matters are complicated by the fact that Nicole, who worked as a preschool teacher, is now unemployed while she recovers from foot operation.    Mike’s $120,000 income, which he earns as a government clerk, is enough to cover their basic living expenses. But Nicole wants to get back to work so the family could afford more treatment for Josef and pay down their debt faster. They also would be able to save more for their long-term goals, including retirement, their daughter’s college tuition and their son’s future living expenses.

A．Besides they have a $14,000 loan they used on home improvements.

B．It’s unlikely that Josef will go to college.

C．They’re also trying to save for their 14-year-old daughter, Elshaday.

D．They want to set aside enough money for their 15-year-old son, Josef.

E. It could be a few weeks before she can return to the workforce.
F. Can their retirement savings cover them?
G. He may need to move into a group home when he gets older.
