19、n about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldnt catch anything.I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish.” I remember being even more upset then because, “Im not a fish!” I didnt know how to t
20、hink like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does? As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish
21、is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don t have any eyelids(眼皮)and the sun hurts their eyes. Th
22、e more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, We all need to think like salespeople.” But it didnt completely make sense.

26、 be fad(时尚)for a lot of people these days. Whether that is good or bad, we cant really say, but for the tow of us, going green is not a fad but a lifestyle. On April22, 2011, we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant ch
27、allenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task. With the idea of going green every single day for a year, Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people abou
28、t how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.

35、u really dont want.According to a new study, most of us fear receiving a gift brought back from abroad by those whose intentions are entirely good, but whose taste in presents is rather more lacking. A survey conducted by travel search website Skyscanner saw over two thirds of those questioned (69 p
36、er cent) admit that they would rather not receive souvenirs from other peoples holidays. Just four per cent of the 2,000 respondents said they find holiday gifts of use.The presents most likely to make us say an unconvincing thank you are ornaments, with 14 per cent of the surveys respondents listin

This is the view of the CWS, which has just brought out a new report.According t
44、o the report, shoppers believe food labels(标签) because they think there are strict regulations in place. 36So the food industry can get away with all sorts of tricky strategies to make products look bigger and sound better than they are.The report has identified the different ways in which shoppers
45、are misled. 37_ Descriptions on packaging are sometimes inaccurate in an attempt to oversell the product. One example given in the report is the phrase haddock fillets, used for a product that is in fact cut from big blocks of fish rather than individual slices.38These include traditional, wholesome
46、, or premium. The claim that a brand is 90% fat-free hides the fact that it contains 10% fat, which above recommended levels. Phrases such as free from preservatives make a virtue out of a normal attribute of food. Labels have a wide variety of text sizes on them. You sometimes need a magnifying gla
47、ss to read the small print. 39Another deliberate type of misinformation lies in the image. Many pictures on packets use small plates to make the product look bigger. 40However, misleading messages on packaging could soon be a thing of the past. The CWS recently produced a code which, if used, would
48、end the current inaccuracies and half-truths. It has called on the government to support it as a way of improving food standards.A. Meaningless adjectives are often used to give a positive message.B. An officer says the labels will receive very serious consideration.C. Photographs are sometimes reto
49、uched(修饰) to achieve the same effect.D. By contrast, the hard sell (强行推销) information is given emphasis.E. The rules are, in reality, very weak at present.F.
