11． If a friend helps you a lot, what do you do in return? You could just say "thanks", or you could write a(an) (1)       note which is more polite. But most people don't do this. Why don't people like (2)       thank-you notes? And how do most people react (反应) when they (3)       one? Kumar from University of Texas made a study of it. He asked each student to write a thank-you note to another person (4)       email. Then, they questioned both the writer and the recipient (接受者) about the note and how it made them feel. They found there were several (5)       for people not to write thank-you notes. They feel like they have to think too much about it. They (6)       what to say and how to say it. They also overthink the "correctness" of what they are writing. But people (7)       like receiving thank-you notes. "As recipients, they pay attention to the (8)       of the thank," Kumar says. "Besides, they (recipients) feel positive (积极的) (9)       they were receiving these expressions." If people knew that writing a thank-you note can have such a big influence on the recipient, they would do it more (10)       . Kumar adds.
Kumar says this study told us that "simple, small changes in our everyday lives can make a big difference in how we treat other people and how we feel."

13．　　An old woman had two large pots (罐), one on each end of a pole (扁担). I always see her carrying the pole with the pots across her neck.
　　One of the pots had a crack (裂缝) in it while the other pot was perfect and always carried a full pot of water. At the end of the long walk from the well to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half-full.
　　For two years this happened daily, with the woman bringing home only one and a half pots of water. One day, I asked the old woman: "Why don't you get another pot? The cracked one always makes water drop all the way back to your house."
　　The old woman smiled: "Did you notice that there are flowers on one side of the road, but not on the other side? That's because I have always known about the crack, so I planted flower seeds (种子) on the side of the road. And every day while I walk back, I can water them."
　　"For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to make my house more beautiful. Without the cracked pot, I would not have this beauty."
　　Each of us has our own cracks. But it's these cracks that make our lives together so interesting and meaningful. So, accept these imperfections (不完美) and try to make good use of them.

14． "Life's a long, long journey", so we can't set off on a journey without some idea of where we wanted to go. Yet many people travel on life's journey with no sense of direction at all.
Setting personal goals (目标) can give our life a sense of direction. Goal setting is used by top sports players, successful business people and achievers in all fields. Before you set personal goals, think about what you want to achieve in your life.
Try to set goals in some of the following categories (类别).

Write down the goals and think about them carefully. To help make the process (过程) more easily, divide your goals into smaller tasks. For example, if you want to reach a main goal in five years, set a three-year goal, a one-year goal, a three-month goal and a one-month goal. The create a daily To-Do List of things that you should do today. When a goal is achieved, take the time to enjoy your success. This helps you build the self-confidence.
Remember, your goals can change as time goes on. But be sure your goals are things you hope to achieve, not what your parents, family or teachers want.

15．　　Do you shop online with websites like Taobao? When you make an order on Taobao, the money you pay doesn't go directly to the seller. Instead, it goes through Alipay, which keeps your money for a while. Then Alipay gives the money to the seller.
　　This is called "third party online payment (支付)". There is a transfer station (中转站) between sellers and buyers to make online shopping safe. Buyers don't need to worry about paying for products and then receiving nothing. Sellers also don't worry about receiving no money after sending out products. These transfer stations are usually set up by payment service companies (公司) such as Alipay, Tenpay and Yeepay. Among them, Alipay is the biggest in China. It has more than 270 million active users.
　　While most online sellers and shoppers like the third party online payment, banks don't. That is because companies like Alipay are fighting over money with the banks. Users can make money through Alipay. So lots of people choose to put money in Alipay rather than in banks.
　　But WeChat payment is not the same. It doesn't have a transfer station. When paying through WeChat, the buyers' money goes directly to the sellers. That's why so many people are excited about receiving and handing out hongbao.
　　In a word, the two forms of payment are trying to make online shopping easier. Which one do you prefer?
