33、y characteristics go along with success in intercultural experiences. Their findings have often been unclear or incomplete. But three characteristics stand out in their reports: patience, a sense of humor, and the awareness of being unclear.Patience, of course, is the ability to keep calm even when
34、things do not go as one wants them to, or hopes they will, or has even been sure they will. Impatience sometimes brings improvements in relations with other people, but usually it does not.

Scientists say were all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understoo

43、,” says Jim Martland, Research Chief of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction.

64、d up a bad habitcheating in examination.There are three main reasons. First, schools have given students too many examinations, some of which are too difficult. Second, some students are not diligent and they dont work hard at their lessons. More time is wasted playing games on surfing the Internet.
65、 Therefore, they havent enough time to prepare for the exams. Third, students have to do so to satisfy their parents and teachers.In my opinion, cheating in exams should be forbidden because it not only goes against the school rules but also does great harm to students. “No pains, no gains.” We students are supposed to be honest and hardworking, only in this way, can we improve our study and make progress. Besides, our teachers should offer fewer examinations and severely punish those who cheat in the examination.本资料由www. 提
