Passage One

Learning how to write is like taking a course in public speaking. I’d ask whether anyone in class had ever taken such a course. Invariably a few hands would go up.

― What did you learn in that course? ‖ I’d ask.

―Well, the main thing was learning how to face an audience, not to be inhibited ( 拘谨；抑制) , not to be nervous , ‖

Exactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowadays, you don’t hear much about grammar and vocabulary. Instead, you’re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed, how to speak without a prepared script, how to reach out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your longstanding nervous inhibitions.

It is the same in writing. (81) The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who’ read what you wrote. You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and reach out to the person at the other end of the line.

Of course, in public speaking, with the audience right in front of you, the problem is easier. You can look at them and talk to them directly. In writing, you’re alone. It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her. But that effort is necessary or at least it ’s necessary until you’ve reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously ―talk on paper. ‖Learning how to write is similar to learning how to speak in public in that a writer should ___________.

When you stretch out in the sun you can do one of the three things: you can use no sun tan oil, an ordinary sun tan oil; or Bergasol.

If you don't use any sun tan oil when you're in

the sun, you will burn surprisingly quickly. If you use an ordinary sun tan oil, you will protect your skin to a lesser or greater degree.How much protection depends on the "protection-factor number" on the bottle. Some oils block out so many of the sun's rays and you can stay in the sun all day without burning but you won't go very brown,either.

Bergasol will protect your skin like an ordinary

sun tan oil. It also has a tan accelerator that speeds up the rate at which the sun activates the skin cells that produce melanin(黑色素). It is melanin that gives the skin its brown colour. Bergasol enables you to go brown faster,am as the days pass the difference will become more obvious.Unfortunately, this special formulation isn't Cheap to prepare.So Bergasol is rather more expensive than ordinary sun tan oil. However, the price looks more attractive as you do.

Bergasoi It makes you go brown faster

Protection Many people imagine that "cover-up" means you don't get a tan. Nothing to show for your holiday.

Not so. With "cover-up", you can get brown if

you want to. The point of "cover-up" is to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun which,according to the experts ,make your skin look older.

That's what Solex Cover-up is all about--protection for your skin. It has a Sun Protection Factor 8,which makes it suitable for anyone. Find out how it works for you by consulting the Solex Sun Chart.

20.Whatever you do, don’t challenge a chimpanzee named Ayumu to a number memory game. In 2007, Ayumu became famous for his lightning speed at a game that goes like this: A player views a computer screen where the numbers 1 through 9 appear briefly at once and then turn to white squares.The player then taps the squares where the numbers had been, in order from 1 to 9.People can do it.But no human competitor has ever completed the game faster or more accurately than Ayumu the chimp.For almost five years Ayumu remains undefeated.Psychologist Nicholas Humphrey of Darwin College at Cambridge University in England now thinks he knows the secret behind the chimp’s ability.Humphrey suspects Ayumu’s brain may have a condition that allows the chimp to see numbers as colors.This would mean that Ayumu may see a color glow after the numbers disappears.Then, instead of remembering the numbers, he remembers a sequence of colors, each associated with a number.The condition that Humphrey believes Ayumu may have is called synesthesia.Humans withsynesthesia may associate numbers and letters with colors.For example, a person may see thenumber “5” as the color blue.Until now, scientists had assumed only humans could havesynesthesia.Humphrey found the inspiration for his idea at a 2011 scientific conference.There, he heard apresentation about Ayumu’s memory abilities and another talk about synesthesia.He then put the two ideas together.Not everyone is convinced that Humphrey is correct.Primatologist Tetsuro Matsuzawa of thePrimate Research Institute at Kyoto University in Japan has spent decades studying the amazingmemories of chimpanzees, including Ayumu.He maintains that chimps simply have faster memory recall than people.What is Ayumu famous for?
