   The waiter came hurrying up. Before I came downstairs I had prepared __6__ carefully for what I must __7__.

   The waiter asked me _10__ I could not understand, but I spoke only my one prepared word “breakfast”. He looked at me in a   11  way. So I repeated it. Still he did not understand.

After six months of living in New Zealand, I realized one thing. Despite my  1   for greater contact with local students,  2   I initiated(開(kāi)始) the contact, it wouldn’t happen. Local students are not interested in contacts with the international students, because they regard us as shy,  3    and sometimes snobby （勢(shì)利的） people. Of course we know that’s not true. I want to change their opinions.

After  4     the problem, I put on my “confidence mask” each morning and walked around with a smile on my face. I chatted with people whenever I had the chance. I showed that I was not afraid to  5     them, and that I was worthy of being a friend.

A side-effect of my  6     confidence was that my emotions occasionally broke down Only in the  7     of my room, where no one could see, would I reveal my real emotions. All the rejections, funny looks, and  8     behind my back calling me a weirdo（古怪的人） melted  into tears. Once that was done, I would put on my confidence mask once again and start a new day.

It finally worked  My name became known throughout the school as I appeared to be 9     and active. Slowly, I discovered that I no longer needed to put on my confidence mask. I had real    friends. Instead of dragging myself to school and  10    to be happy, I was truly happy. I could not believe it when I was elected to the student government as Deputy Head boy----the first international student to receive the title.

From my  11     in New Zealand, I believe one thing will always be true: If you try your best to reach your goals, you’ll achieve your  12     dreams.

1.A. desire                B. invitation  C. devotion        D. effort

2.A. if                  B. otherwise    C. unless          D. once

3.A. energetic       B. considerate    C. free           D. dull

4.A. getting              B. realizing    C. solving  D. making

5.A. get up with           B. put up with         C. open up to    D. look forward to

6.A. accepted       B. proved          C. elected     D. forced

7.A. public              B. privacy     C. possession      D. protection

8.A. laughing         B. talking   C. acting        D. walking

9.A. minded          B. talented C. humorous     D. enthusiastic

10.A. looking         B. helping  C. pretending    D. treating

11.A. experience         B. trouble        C. travel         D. struggle

12.A. great               B. impossible         C. hopeful          D. reasonable

Five Simple Ways to Increase Your Intelligence

Your brain needs exercise just like a muscle. If you use it often and in the right ways, you will become a more skilled thinker and increase your ability to focus.

Here are 5 simple ways anyone can squeeze a bit more productivity out of the old gray matter.

1._______– This is a hard sell. People love vegetating in front of the television, myself included more often than I’d like. The problem is watching television doesn’t use your mental capacity OR allow it to recharge. It’s like having the energy sapped out of a muscle without the health benefits of exercise.

When you feel like relaxing, try reading a book instead. If you’re too tired, listen to some music. When you’re with your friends or family, leave the tube off and have a conversation. All of these things use your mind more than television and allow you to relax.

2._______ – I used to think that I’d learn more by not exercising and using the time to read a book instead. But I realized that time spent exercising always leads to greater learning because it improves productivity during the time afterwards. Using your body clears your head and creates a wave of energy. Afterwards, you feel invigorated and can concentrate more easily.

3._______– Many people like to read popular suspense fiction, but generally these books aren’t mentally stimulating. If you want to improve your thinking and writing ability you should read books that make you focus. Reading a classic novel can change your view of the world and will make you think in more precise, elegant English. Don’t be afraid to look up a word if you don’t know it, and don’t be afraid of dense passages. Take your time, re-read when necessary, and you’ll soon grow accustomed to the author’s style.

4.________– Nothing makes it harder to concentrate than sleep deprivation. You’ll be most rejuvenated if you go to bed early and don’t sleep more than 8 hours. If you stay up late and compensate by sleeping late, you’ll wake up lethargic(無(wú)精打采) and have trouble focusing. In my experience the early morning hours are the most tranquil and productive. Waking up early gives you more productive hours and maximizes your mental acuity(敏銳) all day.

If you have the opportunity, take 10-20 minute naps when you are hit with a wave of drowsiness. Anything longer will make you lethargic, but a short nap will refresh you.

5.________ – Often our lives get so hectic that we become overwhelmed without even realizing it. It becomes difficult to concentrate because nagging thoughts keep interrupting. Spending some time alone in reflection gives you a chance to organize your thoughts and prioritize your responsibilities. Afterwards, you’ll have a better understanding of what’s important and what isn’t. The unimportant stuff won’t bother you anymore and your mind will feel less encumbered.

Conclusion – I hope you aren’t disappointed that none of the techniques I’ve proposed are revolutionary. But simple, unexciting answers are often the most valid. The challenge is having the will to adhere to them. If you succeed in following these 5 tips, you’ll be rewarded with increased mental acuity and retention of knowledge.
