28、ars from prize money and ads. The industry is clearly thriving. What it takesBecoming a professional is not just about being good at playing gamesit also takes a lot of hard work.

29、exgamer George. Not all fun and gamesIt can be a difficult job as well. Stress is a big problem for gamers. Tiredness is another, and injuries(受伤)are common. Top player Hai Lam had wrist(手腕)problems after years of pro gaming. Careers(生涯)are short, and many gamers retire(退休)before they are 30 and try
30、 to find another job. However, the bad points probably wont change the dreams of many teenage gamers.

35、be feelings. In Friendship:In friendship you should be honest and express your feelings directly. You must love the positive qualities of your friend. At the same time you must tell your friend what you “dislike” about him or her. In Family: Family members “share” all the feelings and whatever comes
36、 their way. In order to keep the family relation strong, you must“love”other members, “like”their ways,“care for”them and “help”them at any time. A family must teach and share“values”,“respect”with each other to stay “together”. Use these nice words and you would see the difference for yourself. In
37、the Workplace: “Hello” and “Hi” filled with a lot of energy shall be your opening words every time you meet your workmates, followed by a warm “Good morning”. Do remember to address your leader with a little respect added to these words. In the workplace, you should be “willing”to do teamwork. These
38、 words are not only nice but also powerful. And they can help you strengthen the relation with your workmates. In short, remember that words do matter.

41、cultures have different wordsCHave you tried to run or walk for exercise and then give up? If you answered yes, you should try a new kind of exercise: aquatic(水中的)exercise. Aquatic exercise is like exercise on land, but you do it in a swimming pool. More and more people are trying aquatic exercise.
42、Aquatic exercise feels easier than exercising on land. Why?You weigh about 90% less in the pool. It is better for your knees than running or walking. Water is about 1,000 times thicker and heavier than air. To move through the water, your body has to work four times as hard. As a result,you can burn
43、 more calories(卡路里). In fact, most people say they feel more relaxed in the water. They stop thinking about the things that make them worried. They feel in control of their bodies. The cool, quiet environment makes them feel good. But what if you are afraid of the water? No problem! There is nothing
44、 to worry about. Aquatic exercise is safe and easy to learn. It doesnt require any special skills. You dont even need to know how to swim. Aquatic exercise is for everyone. 66.

DHave you ever heard the phrase “You never get a second chance to make a first impression (印象)?”It may sound like an unusual piece of advice, but it is truethe first impression someone has of you when meeting yo
47、u for the first time will probably influence how that person treats you or reacts to you in the future. What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds. When you meet someone for the first time, by the time you have
48、stated you name or shaken hands,the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are. So how do you make a good first impression? All things grownups tell you such as being polite,and being welldressed are very important. However, the most important tool for making a good
49、first impression is your face. Smiling,being responsive,and looking like you are happy will almost always leave a positive(积极的)impression on people,especially those who do not know you. Most people, generally speaking,are ready to smile back when they are smiled at. Furthermore,smiling and being in
50、a positive mood help you to know and get a better understanding of new things.
