I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “ What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup（化妆）ideas. 4 The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a Rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. __5___ Except they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

One of the leading reasons is the growing number of pet cats. By keeping your pet cats in your home, you can help give birds a better possible chance to live. Of the 90 million pet cats in this country, about two—thirds are allowed to go outside. It is said that these cats kill hundreds of millions of birds each year, as well as billions of small animals such as rabbits and field mice. They can also bring illness to the animals that live in people's yard(院子), further weakening the health of the natural populations. Allowing pet cats to go outside is not just bad for birds and wildlife, it's also bad for the cats

初中英语七选五习题练习 （一） Children have gentle minds. To find the best way to teach children to share and ca re is easy. Kids are naturally attracted to animals. 1 Also we can show them the cow eating grass on a farm. Making them have a look at the animals that are dying out and rare pictures from newspapers is another exciting way to make them love animals. The effects of pollution are difficult for them to understand. 2 There are great pictures of animals like cute rabbits and gorillas. 3 Tell them they are our friends, so we can’t hurt them. Take them to the conservation park and show them a monkey or a rare bird. Show them the types of penguins. Teach your children that animals can feel pain but cannot express themselves like us. 4 If you have pets at home, let them accompany your children deal with them well. One could call an ambulance for injured dogs or nurse a sick animal back to health. Taking a nature walk is liked by kids and also the best way to get along with the family. Kids love to see some newborn dogs and the mother nursing them. 5 . A Emotions are well understood by children and they may have the same feeling. B Children all like small animals, but they don’t consider them as their friends. C Teach them never to throw stones to hit animals. D This can make children know how to care others. E One could teach them to be kind to ants and show them how they carry food to save for the rainy day. F Parents should protect the environment first. G Therefore one could tell them that the environment should be (kept ) clean. （二） Feel the Meaning of Life Imagine life as a game, in which you are juggling some five balls in the air.

If you drop one of these, they will be marked, damaged or even broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life. 3 . It is because we are different that each of us is special. Don’t set your goals by what other people consider important. Only you know what is best for you. Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Stick to them as you would cling to your life, for without them, life is meaningless. Never give up when you still have something to give. 4 . 5 .The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings. Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going. A．Life is like a roller coaster, live it, be happy, enjoy life. B．Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. C．Don’t weaken your worth by comparing yourself with others. D．you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. E．Don't shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible to find. F．You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. G．But the other four balls are made of glass. （三） How to keep healthy?
