• 2． The Boy Made It! One Sunday，Nicholas，a teenager，went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine．In the early afternoon，when he was planning to go home，a fierce snowstorm swept into the area．Unable to see far，he accidentally turned off the path．Before he knew it，Nicholas was lost，all alone!He didn't have food，water，a phone，or other supplies．He was getting colder by the minute．
     Nicholas had no idea where he was．He tried not to panic．He thought about all of the survival shows he had watched on TV．It was time to put the tips he had learned to use．
     He decided to stop skiing．There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put．The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow．If he didn't，his body temperature would get very low，which could quickly kill him．
     Using his skis，Nicholas built a snow cave．He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle．Then he piled branches on top of himself，like a blanket，to stay as warm as he could．
     By that evening，Nicholas was really hungry．He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn't lose too much water．Not knowing how much longer he could last，Nicholas did the only thing he could he huddled （蜷縮） in his cave and slept．
     The next day，Nicholas went out to look for help，but he couldn't find anyone．He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave，because without shelter，he could die that night．On Tuesday，Nicholas went out again to find help．He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him．After two days stuck in the snow，Nicholas was saved．
     Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV．He had often watched Grylls' survival show Man vs．Wild．That's where he learned the tips that saved his life．In each episode （一期節(jié)目） of Man vs．Wild，Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out．
     When Gxrylls heard about Nicholas' amazing deeds，he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive．

• 3．My color television has given me nothing but a headache．I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn't fit．I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model．I realized this day later，when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid．The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night．Fortunately，I didn't get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed．
     Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static（靜電）noise．For some reason，when certain shows switched into a commercial，a loud noise would sound for a few seconds．Gradually，this noise began to appear during a show，and to get rid of it，I had to change to another channel and then change it back．Sometimes this technique would not work，and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound．I actually began to build up my arm muscles（肌肉）shaking my set．
     When neither of these methods removed the static noise，I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away．At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist，and it stopped working altogether．My trip to the repair shop cost me ＄ 62，and the set is working well now，but I keep expecting more trouble．

• 4．Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table，reading his book．His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to copy him in every way he could．
     One day the grandson asked，"Grandpa，I try to read the book just like you，but I don't understand it，and I forget what I understand as soon as I close the book．What good does reading the book do？"
     The grandpa quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied，"Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water．"
     The boy did as he was told，but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house．The grandpa laughed and said，"You'll have to move a little faster next time，"and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again．
     This time the boy ran faster，but again the basket was empty before he returned．Out of breath，he told his grandpa that it was impossible to carry water in a basket，so he went to get a bucket instead．
     The grandpa said，"I don't want a bucket of water；I want a basket of water．You're just not trying hard enough．"
     The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard，but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again．Out of breath，he said，"Grandpa，it's useless!"
     "So，you think it is useless？"the grandpa said，"Look at the basket．"
     The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different．It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean．
     "Grandson，that's what happens when you read the book．You might not understand or remember everything，but when you read it，you'll be changed，inside and out．"

• 5．Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp Everyone is forgetful，but as we age，we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit and that can be a very annoying thing. （1）

  Read on for some techniques worth trying.
     1. （2）

  
     People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's disease （早老性癡呆癥），according to a recent study. （3）

     Mildly raised glucose（葡萄糖） levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels.In fact，exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain. （4）

  
     3.Learn something new.
     Take a Spanish class online，join a drawing club，or learn to play cards.A study found that mental stimulation （刺激） limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind.But the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time. （5）
