Are you the first or the last child in your family? Or are you a middle or an only child? Some people it matters where you were born in your family. But there are different ideas about what birth order means. Some people say that the eldest children are smart. They are very likely to be . The reason for this is 47 simple. Parents have a lot of time for their first child; they give them or her much attention. So this child is likely to do well. An only child will succeed for the same reason. What happens to the other children in the family? Middle children don’t get so much attention, 48 they don’t feel that important. If a family has many children, the middle one sometimes gets lost in the crowd. The youngest child, though, often gets special treatment. He or she is the baby. Often this child grows up to be funny or charming. Do you believe these ideas about birth order too? A recent study saw things quite differently. The study found that first children believed in family rules. They didn’t take many chances in their lives. they 49 followed orders. Rules didn’t mean as much to later children in the family. They went out and followed their own ideas. They took chances and they often did better in life.
A) sick
B) behind
C) make progress
D) together
E) shake hands
From the time we were babies we have been taught manners. We are taught how to hold a knife and fork and not to talk with our mouths full. We are taught how to and when to stand and when to sit and the 50
way to introduce people. Sometimes good manners in one place are very bad manners somewhere else. Almost everywhere eating means that people are very friendly to each other. But in parts of Polynesia it 51 is bad manners to be seen eating beside each other. So they politely turn their backs to each other when they are taking food. Some East Africans spit four times as a kind of blessing. They do it to show that they want a 52 person to get well, or to bless a new-born baby. In many countries, spitting means something completely different. It may mean that you hate someone. In a village in Arab countries, a visitor will walk 53 all the tents until he gets to the one he wants to visit. If he passes in front, he will be invited into each tent and asked to eat. It is rude to refuse.

Dog Watch
The dog watch is actually a “clock for keeping time at a rate (比率) other than human time” and was invented in 1991. With this handy watch, you can be aware of time at your animal’s rate instead of your own. According to the inventor, the watch multiplies every human second, minute and hour by seven, thus giving us “doggy time”. If a dog lives to be the age of 14, that translates into 98 human years!
