You wont, however, get anywhere with poor social skills.One reason is that social skills can only be developed in a social atmosphere. So unless you plan to live on a desert is
20、land for the rest of your life, you need to learn how to get along with other people. Otherwise social awkwardness(难堪)，difficulty in meeting people and being unable to communicate your ideas will hurt no matter who you are.。On the other hand., having great social skills can be helpful in almost any
21、situation. If you can easily make friends, share your thoughts and understand other persons feelings, these abilities can make you better at almost anything you do.Genes(基因) certainly play a role in determining how outgoing and attractive you can be. But social skills, like reading and writing, can
22、be trained. You arent born able to read, why do you expect any other skill to develop automatically(自动地)？Several years ago, if you had told me social skills were in your genes, I would have believed you. I had few close friends and had difficulty sharing my ideas. I spent most of my time, lonely. Fi
23、nally, I was tired of the way things were and made efforts to change them. I joined Toastmasters to work on Public Speaking. I started writing every day and I put myself in new places to meet new people. No improvement took place immediately, but after a few years of work, my old life is hardly reco
24、gnizable. Today I have dozens of close friends I can depend on and hundreds of friends in every area of my life.61.

27、d the information on the post sign and decided which bus to take. About five minutes later the bus they wanted came along. They prepared to get on. Suddenly people rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted insulting remarks about the foreigners. The bus conductor cam
28、e rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed. No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus so that the first person who arrived at a bus-stop is the first person to get on the bus.Learning the language
29、 of a country isnt enough. If you want to ensure a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolit
30、e to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, You might see a man apparently shaking his head at another and assume (认为) that he is disagreeing. But in many parts of India a rotating (旋转) movement of the head is a gesture
31、that express agreement or acceptance. Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to express “yes” a nod means “no”.In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting talking to someone, even at an important meeting.
32、 Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause offence (冒犯). It is considered too informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also when in Thailand avoid touching the head of an adult its just not done.Attitudes to women vary considerably around the world. In Japan, fo
33、r example, it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home.Knowing about customs and attitudes is useful when you are travelling, but you also need to know the language used to express different degrees of formality (礼节).64.

39、ad the news carefully and must be satisfied with a quick look at the front page, at other times, they may be in such a hurry that they have time only for a glance at the headlines.American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information. There are newspapers to satisfy all sorts of readers.
40、Some newspapers are sensational（耸人听闻的）, which feature crime, sex and gossip(传播流言蜚语); some are serious, which focus on factual(事实的;真实的) news and the analysis of world events.

41、wspapers and perhaps only one edition each day. In some areas the paper is even printed weekly.Most newspapers have several sections, especially on Sundays when the section is larger than usual.

42、age.

Sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people.The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Every year, millions of people are murdered
49、 by these two killers. And to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bringing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing the
50、ir diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span(寿命) can be prolonged.
