The relationship between student and teacher is less formal (正式的) in the U.S. than in many other
countries, especially at the college level. (1)當老師走進教室時, 學生不必起立. Students are generally
encouraged to ask questions during class, to go to the teacher's office for help after class, and to phone
if they can't go to school and need help with their lessons. (2)Most teachers allow students to enter class
late or leave early, if necessary.
    (3)However, students are still asked to be ________ to their teacher and classmates and to be ________
during a test. When students want to ask questions, they usually put up a hand and wait. When the teacher
or a student is speaking to the class, it's rude to talk to another classmate, even in a low voice. When a test
is being given, talking to a classmate is not only rude but also wrong. In the eyes of most American teachers,
students who are talking to each other during a test are cheating (作弊).

    What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, and red? If you do, you must be an optimist,
a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grey and blues? Then you
are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and
determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what
psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of
colour preference, and the influence that colours have on human beings. They tell us that we don't choose
our favourite colours as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your
eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
    A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress
brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. Light and bright
colours make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder,
and have fewer accidents when their machines and painted orange rather than black or dark grey.
    Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or
a few colourful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you
find out what colours they like and dislike. And don't forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character
when you choose a piece of handkerchief.

    Millions of children in the United States go to summer camps. Some go to play outdoors at traditional
camps in the woods, in the mountains or on lakes. But families now have many choices of special camps.
These can be in the middle of nature or a big city. Special camps offer young people the chance to learn
about different subjects: anything from space exploration to business to medicine.
    In technology camps, one subject that children can learn about is video game design. They learn how
to use computer programs to create games of their own. One program that teaches video game design is
called Cybercamps. Children can learn how to design their own virtual (實際上的) worlds to set their
video game in. Then, they program their own rules and objects into the game.
    Cybercamps also offers courses in robot building and Web design. A recent story in the Washington
Post described how one child made a robot that could sing a song. Another made a robot that could follow
a black line drawn on a piece of cardboard. Also, children can learn how to make Web sites. One child
made a site for Pokemon, one of his favourite cartoon shows.

     What are the limits (極限) of human body? The BBC's Focus magazine has some answers.
How cold can you stand?
     Normal body temperature is around 37℃. At 35℃ you're unable to write your name. Even walking is very
difficult. At 33℃ you may find it difficult to think, understand and form (形成) opinions properly. By the time
you have cooled to 20℃, your heart would have stopped beating. Limit: 0℃. Ice would form in your tissues
(纖維組織), killing all the cells.
How spicy can you eat? 
     There is capsaicin (辣椒素) in many foods. The more capsaicin, the hotter the dishes are. If you're healthy
enough, you can survive (存活) eating a teaspoon of pure capsaicin. But you would find it impossible to eat
anything else for a few hours. Limit: 5g capsaicin.
How fast can you run?
     The fastest man in the world is Asafa Powell. The runner finished the 100m in 9. 74 seconds in 2007. This
gives an average (平均的) speed of 36. 96km/h. Top runners are at their fastest around 80 metres, so a runner's
greatest speed may reach 43.06km/h. Limit: 43.06km/h.
How loud is too loud?
     The loudest sound you can hear is 168 dB (分貝). Sound louder than that may do harm to your ears. The
loudest sound ever recorded was the eruption of Krakatoa (卡拉卡托火山爆發(fā)) in 1883. It was 180 dB, 160km
away.
Limit: 168 dB
