These assertions are far from the truth. Jane Austen traveled more than most women of her time and was quite involved in the lives of her brother, so much that it often interfered with her writing. Like most writers, Jane drew on her experiences and her dreams for the future and incorporated them into her writing. Her characters reflect the people around her; the main characters reflect parts of herself. In Sanse and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice, Elinor Dashwood and Elizabeth Bennet reflect aspects of Jane Austen and dreams she had that were never fulfilled.The biographies about Jane Austen describe the facts of her life in a step-by-step manner. They tend to be repetitive since she did not leave behind a rich fabric of day-to-day life. Yet Jane Austen is known not because of the factual details of her life; she is not remembered two hundred years after her death because she had six siblings and was a wonderful aunt to her nieces and nephews. Rather, Jane Austen is remembered because of what she wrote. Only through reading her literature does one get a taste of the real Jane Austen, the Jane Austen who dreamed and made plans for the future that failed to materialize. Only by analyzing June Austen’s characters do we get an understanding of the true author.Sense and Sensibility’s Elinor Dash wood mirrors June Austen’s strait-laced sense of propriety and her concern and care about family members. For example, after her father died, Jane managed to get herself through and send her father’s pocket compass and pair of scissors to her brother Frank as a memento of their father. Elinor in Sense and Sensibility is the sister who holds down the family and discusses the practicality of situations. She too distributes cherished mementos of her father when he dies. Elinor is the sister who is concerned with thewelfare of her relations and takes it upon herself to look after their well-being.Jane can also be considered the backbone of her family. After she dies, the family is not as close as they were during her lifetime. Jane became very close with two of her nieces, Fanny Austen and Anna Austen. She counseled them on men and marriage when they reached the age of choosing a suitor. She often helped with delivering her sister-in-law’s babies. During her thirties, she lived with her brother Frank for several weeks. She cooked the meals for his family and cared for his children while his wife was confined to her bed. Like the character she creates in Elinor, she slicks by her family and helps them when they need her.Austen’s life closely parallels that of Elizabeth Bennet in Pride, and Prejudice. Austen begins the novel with the line, “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of fortune, must be in want of a wife”. This statement reflects the opinion of the time that a woman had to be married or else she had no social standing. Just as Elizabeth and her sisters feel immense pressure to get married and procure a good match, so too did Jane. Until she was twenty-five she still retained a small spark of hope that she would one day marry and have children.The most significant similarity between Jane and Lizzy is their close relationships with their sisters. Jane and her sister Cassandra were extremely close. When they moved into a house in Chawton, they shared a bedroom. They were dependent upon each other and supported each other in all aspects of their lives. They supported each other’s decisions and wrote to each other when apart. Lizzy and her older sister Jane were extremely close. They too supported each other’s decisions a nd were always there for the other. They discussed suitors and marriage just as Jane and her sister must have done.All of Jane’s female characters end up happily married, a state Jane herself never felt. A woman was defined in terms of her husband; if she did not marry, she had nothing. Well into her twenties, Jane still had dreams of getting married. When she was twenty-five, Harris Bigg-Wither, a brother of her good friends, proposed marriage to Jane. At first she accepted: she would become mistress of a large estate, and be able to ensure the comfort of her parents to the end of their days. Most importantly, she would have children and raise a family of her own. The next day, however, Jane reneged the proposal. She did not love him and did not want a marriage based on nothing but money. After this proposal, Jane gave up all hopes of ever having a family of her own. Instead, she fulfilled her dreams through her characters and found “passion” through them. All her characters marry for love (which happens to also be financially advantageous). They make Jane’s dreams become a reality within her imagination. _______________.As children reflect upon the parents and often mirror aspects of their parents, so too did many of Jane’s characters mirror herself a nd the people around her.1.

But surprisingly scientific studies have linked personality types with considerable health risks. According to studies from the university of Nottingham and the University of California, personality types can shape our immune systems as a deciding factor for diseases we are more likely to come down with. Participants in these studies were grouped and identified by various common personalities. Researchers discovered certain personality types were more likely to develop diseases, while others were not.If you’re an extrovert(性格外向者),you're likely to be outgoing, social and energized by being around others. It's good news that studies find extroverts have stronger immune systems. However, extroverts are more likely to suffer from higher blood pressure and cancers. To prevent these health problems, you should limit your late nights out to ensure you get enough rest, restrict junk food and sugar intake as much as possible, and increase intake of vitamins and minerals by eating plenty of vegetables.If you find yourself nodding along to avoid conflicts or are easily persuaded, youprobably have an agreeable personality type by nature. However, agreeable personalities should also heed(留心)their doctors recommendations since they re more likely to suffer from short-term diseases. you may suffer from-increased stress, often caused by agreeing to requests you shouldn’t have, or overweight possibly caused by giving in to the over-generous mature of others. To avoid these problems, you should learn to say no when you need to take care of yourself and release stress by taking the time to relax your mind and body.Contrary to what you may be thinking now, woes are not at as much risk of health issues as you may think there are two broad categories of worriers: ones who are extremely worried and others who are worried in a healthy way. Thankfully, most of us are on the healthy side! However, those who are extremely worried are more likely to develop depression due to excessive worry. What's more, their increased stress from habitual worrying can lead to overeating, drinking, and smoking. If you're a worrier, you can calm down your mind by trying practicing yoga every day if you start to feel down, remember to concentrate on the positive- in life.In short, you don’t need to change your personality to live a much healthier life. you just take note of the associated risks and follow specific health tips to mitigate(减轻)them.小练（2）单项填空21. —What do you think of Steven Hawking?—Well, despite his disabled body, he was a man of scientific nature, worthy of admiration.A. oneB. whoC. thatD. this22.

I might look a bit thinner, but everyone will ask about my new diet. One hour of preparation and I look like myself. One hour out of 24. Sometimes I wonder if it’s worth it—wasting a twenty-fourth of my day on a lie.Checking my makeup one last time, I slip on a cute pair of flats- heels are too dangerous with shaky legs—and grab my Hollister bag. Walking downstairs, I breathe in the sweet smell of waffles and juice.“Morning, Mom,” I call.“Moring, baby,” she sings. “Did you sleep well?”“Better than I have been.”She sighs, and her eyes look a hundred years old for a minute. “Any improvement is good,” she says half-heartedly.“Of course.”“I made waffles.”“Thanks, Mom. Smells delicious.”I sit at the table and she hands me a plate. The thought of all that food turns my stomach,but I force a smile and thank my mother again. She busies herself at the sink and fills the silence with chatter. When she turns around, she takes in the waffles still on my plate, only missing a few bites. I smile apologetically.“I’m not very hungry this morning.”“You’ll need your strength for this afternoon. Morrison will wait for you.” She bites her lip.“I packed your lunch.”“I’m 18, Mom. I can pack my own lunch. You have more important things to do. ”She reaches for the paper bag. “But now I know you’ll have something to eat. And you need to eat, okay? You have to keep your strength up.”Sighing, I take the bag. I know this peanut butter and jelly sandwich won’t be eaten, not any more than the one yesterday or the day before. And even if I do eat it, I’ll just throw it up later.“Honey, have you thought about what I said the other day?” she asks.I remain silent.“Sweetheart, you can’t hide the secret forever. Eventually you’re going to miss school and people will start asking questions.”“Mom, I have two months left of high school. I can make it till then. I’m class president. I was voted ‘Most popular’, ‘Best smile’ and ‘Most likely to succeed’. I’m the girl who’s got it all together. People don’t want to know that the girl who’s got it all together doesn’t have it all together. People don’t want to know that girl is to be parted!”“Honey, don’t say that. You’re not. . .”“Yes, I am. You heard Dr. Morr ison. I have maybe a year left. But that means I can graduate and then never see those people again. I’ ll depart and they’ll feel sorry for me, but at least I won’t have to tolerate their pity.”“But. . .” she tries to interrupt.“Mom, listen to me. I don’t want to be the girl everyone looks at and whispers, ‘Look at her. Poor thing. She has cancer. ’I can’t handle that. I want to be normal. Just for these last two months.”“Okay,” she whispers. “Okay. Just remember, it’s okay if you don’t have it all tog ether. Sometimes things just fall apart and there’s nothing we can do.”“Thanks, Mom.” I grab my bag and lunch and kiss her on the check. “①”“②” she replies. This exchange, once taken for granted, is now a vital part of every morning, every afternoon, and every night. Three little words, followed by four more, have come to mean more than an entire conversation.

So sang Elton John on one of his biggest 1970s hits—but not every public figure seems to find it so tough to let out that powerful five-letter word.In recent months varieties of public figures, from politicians, to Hollywood actors and YouTube stars have all publicly expressed regrets.But with floods of regrets on the airwaves, just how can we tell a forced apology from a heartfelt expression?In it s purest form, saying sorry should be an “act of regrets, a realization that something you have said or done has hurt someone and you want to repair it”, says psychologist Geraldine Joaquim.Made early, a sincere apology can be hugely beneficial and can “relieve the tension and takes the wind out of an accuser’s sails”, she says.A need to say sorry can arise in someone’s public life and equally at home with their family and friends but, whatever the environment, how well it is received depends on how personalized it feels.From businesses, governments and organizations, a scripted response will fail to resonate(引起共鸣) as it will not convey empathy (同理心) and sympathy.Whether online or in person, the timing and choice of language in an apology are decisive factors.“It is important to show that you understand and sympathize,” says Martin Stone, of PR agency Tank, “It is vital that any business or individual making an apology understands the focus—is it sorry for the way it’s acted or is it sorry that the complainant feels the way they do?”Performed apologies always have a sense of being “acted out”, and are often accompanied by too many theatrical gestures. If sincere, the person making the apology will be looking for listening clues to see if they are being understood, such as eye contact and facial expressions. They will provide “humbling (谦卑的) signals”, such as a lowered head, to indicate regrets.It is also important to avoid irresponsible statements or promises that can’t be kept. “Don’t say that you’ll ensure that this will not happen again if you’re not confident it won’t. It could come back to bite you,” Stone explains.Equally, the use of “but” can hugely change the tone of an apology.As Stone points out. “I’m sorry but. . . It sounds like you are making excuses and aren’t actually taking any form of responsibility. It may be three letters but it can instantly make an apology seem hollow.”小练1BAABC DDBBC DCAABDACCD1.differentiate/tell/distinguish2. immune3. tips/suggestions/advice4.
