26、Sometimes willpower is much like the television remote control—hard to find just when you want it most. 【1】 But there are ways to increase your willpower.
*Don’t try to change your economic situation, win a promotion and lose weight all on the same morning. Set one clear, specific goal and make a realistic plan to achieve it. Extra willpower sometimes requires extra energy, so don’t spread yourself too thin. 【2】
*Whatever your goal is, don’t expect to achieve it overnight. 【3】 If you are trying to kick a coffee habit, start by replacing your morning cup of coffee with a glass of water, instead of promising never to drink coffee again. Congratulate yourself on the small achievements. These successes help your willpower grow.
【4】 Ask friends, family or colleagues for assistance and tell them exactly how they can help. If your credit card bills have risen, for instance, let friends know that you are cutting back on expenses. Suggest having a common dinner instead of meeting at an expensive restaurant. Find a support group or organization related to your goal and attend their meetings. You can get valuable advice, understanding and information.
*If possible, change your environment to encourage positive behavior. Want to get in shape? Keep an extra set of workout clothes in your office as a reminder to stop by the gym on the way home. Want to quit smoking? 【5】
A.Real success takes time.
B.Focus on one goal at a time.
C.Change your environment to change your life.
D.Improve your willpower by a support network.
E.Changing your behavior requires more than willpower.
F.Avoid bars or restaurants where you might be attracted to light up.
G.Breaking a bad habit or forming a new and healthy one can be difficult.
27、Best wedding speeches stay in our memory forever, marking the importance of the wedding day for everyone involved. It can be quite challenging to fit all the feelings you want to share into a single speech. Most times, a humorous speech is just perfect, because it works for all weddings. Let us share some tips.
For mother of the bridegroom (新郎). You’ll talk about his growing up and how he was well raised. You can also say something about the bride (新娘). Finish by how proud you are and how they are well made for each other. “The first time I saw you, it was love. My little baby grew into a wobbly toddler, and then a smart child. The preteen and teen years and the next thing I knew, you’ve become a man.”
For mother of the bride. Tell your daughter that she’s beautiful and strong. Talk about the good memories in her growing years. “It’s no news that we love our kids so much, and seeing them grow up is hard. Everything they do fills you with pride. Now I’m grateful and proud that she has found love in the bridegroom. May your marriage be long, happy, and peaceful together.”
For father of the bridegroom. Your son will be looking to you for support and wisdom for marriage. So, good wedding speeches from the father of the bridegroom can contain learning from each other. “My greatest blessing is having a son, one that mirrors me in many ways. But like his dream, he’s grown into his own person. My son will make an amazing husband. I wish you every best.”
For father of the bride. As the father of the bride, you have responsibilities to your baby girl. Give the young couple pieces of advice and your best wishes. "From me to you, I’ll tell you that a successful marriage requires falling in love many times and doing it with the same person always.”

28、Nobody knows the value of a good doll better than Jandrisevits. “Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand,” she said. It’s a conclusion she came to while working as a social worker using dolls to help her young clients adapt to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls. But for the kids missing a limb or who had lost their hair, there were none they could relate to.
So, seven years ago, when a friend revealed that her child was stuck in self-doubt and self-distrust, Jandrisevits, now 49, knew what might help the youth through this potentially challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, ‘You are perfect the way you are,’ and to build self-esteem (自尊) that way, but never offer them anything that looks like them,”she says.
Jandrisevits went about changing that. She crafted a doll by hand — using fabric, stitching, and markers — that resembled (像) her friend’s child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo online of the happy child and doll, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby, who was missing a leg.
Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits was making dolls for children with scars, birthmarks, facial deformities(畸形), — in short, a doll that looked like them. She quit her job and started a nonprofit, A Doll Like Me.
Working out of her home in Milwaukee, from photos sent by parents or caregivers, it takes Jandrisevits roughly three days to craft only one doll. A GoFundMe page helps her cover costs and allows her to donate her services. She hasn’t charged for a doll since she began her nonprofit.
In all, she’s made more than 400 dolls. The waiting list is long, but Jandriscvits will never give up. As she explains on her GoFundMe page, “Every kid, regardless of gender, ethnicity, age, medical issue, or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”
【1】What made Jandrisevits realize the value of dolls?
A.The influence of dolls on her.
B.Her working experience.
C.The changing medical situations.
D.Her relation to the unlucky kids.
【2】What does the underlined word ―that‖ refer to in paragraph 3?
A.Children’s concern about their looks.
B.The problems faced by the child of a friend.
C.The challenging period the youth are going through.
D.The fact that words alone fail to help build self-esteem.
【3】What can be inferred about Jandrisevits’ making dolls?
A.It targets children with mental problems.
B.It is time-consuming but meaningful.
C.It is thought poorly of by people.
D.It brings in a good fortune.
【4】Which of the following best describes Jandrisevits?
A.Creative and caring.
B.Ambitious and devoted.
C.Considerate and sensitive.
D.Knowledgeable and generous.
29、In high school, you can take part in a club you enjoy, whether that’s singing coking, or something else. 【1】 If your school doesn’t offer a club that interests you, staring your own club will allow you to continue to enjoy this hobby. Follow the steps below to start a club.
Brainstorm ideas.
First, decide what you want your club to focus on. You may already know, but if you don’t, think about activities you enjoy doing.【2】 You can do this by looking at your school’s student handbook or asking someone at the school office.

【3】 Think about what the aim of the club is, and what activities you want members to take part in. By making them clear, you will be able to provide a clearer vision (构想) of your club when you present the idea to the school and potential members.
Register (登记) your club with the school
Most high schools require clubs to be school-agreed.【4】 If your school doesn’t agree, you likely won’t be able to have club meetings or post information at school, so learn how to register your club and make it official.
【5】
Once your club is allowed by the school, it’s time to recruit (招募) members. Mention your club to your friends and people who you think will be interested. If your school allows it, create and post flyers one week before the first meeting that state the club’s name, goal, and the time and date of the first meeting.
A.Spread the word.
B.Hold your first club meeting.
C.If you enjoy skiing, you could start a ski club at your school.

E.Once you know what you want your club to be about, it's time to get more detailed.
F.Once you have your idea, check to make sure your school doesn't already have a similar club.
G.This may be as simple as filling out a form, or it may require discussing the chub with the school staff.
