The Coca-Cola Company announced it had added a new alcoholic beverage（饮料）to its portfolio（证券投资组合）only in the Japanese market. The low- alcohol drink, or Chu- Hi, is a watereddown mixture of the Shouchu spirit plus flavoring. This isn't the first time Coca-Cola has experienced with flavors and tastes.
Not all flavors are successful, but the unique flavors deserve a round of applause. Here are five other unusual coca cola products that were released.
Beverly
Introduced in 1969, Beverly was an Italian aperitif（开胃酒）, designed to be consumed before meals and believed to aid digestion. Competitors like Campari and San Pellegrino led to its discontinuation in 2009.
OK Soda
This product was started to capture the Generation X market in 1993. OK Soda cans had grim-looking illustrations in its ad campaign that responded to the idea that Generation X was
cynical and disillusioned. Its slogan was "Things are going to be OK" and it even had its own manifesto(宣言). It was discontinued in 1995.
Coca - Cola Blak
Coffee in soda? Coca-Cola had developed this recipe for two years and finally released the carbonated coffee drink in 2006. It hoped it would tap into the premium coffee markets, but just one year later Blak was discontinued.
New Coke
In 1985, the 99- year- old company decided it was scrapping its classic Coca- Cola recipe for a sweeter version to compete with Pepsi. In blind taste tests, people generally preferred the new recipe compared to the old. But three months after making the switch, the company announced the return of the classic Coca-Cola.

Art has always been a vital part of my life. When I was old enough to appreciate genuine fine art , my parents started bringing me to museums that housed works of the greatest artists in the world.
When my art teacher asked us to do a Cubist（立体派的)drawing, my first thought was that she was just joking. I didn't like Cubism. I thought to do so means making fun of the true artists I admired. Unwillingly, I began to find out items for my drawing, I carelessly drew the objects all from different view points. The pictures all looked like a mess of lines and shapes anyway, but I was more concerned with how many more minutes were in the period because I was hungry. Yet, the other part of me was growing quieter. I began to take my task seriously and darken specific lines. I stared at my drawing and determined which ones needed to be emphasized. I was soon shading certain shapes black and they brought out important figures. It must be absolutely perfect.
When I showed her my finished drawing, my teacher looked at me with her huge smile and simply stated, "You are a Cubist. " At that moment the world stopped moving. My cubist drawing was the best piece of art I had ever created, not because I had spent the most time on it but because I had felt it. I thought of
how I produced it. Once I felt frustrated, trying to perfect my black lines. Another time I was delighted in breathing life into the drawing by adding color. All of these emotions showed themselves in my work, giving it life that none of my previous works had had. Cubism set me free, showing everything I knew, everything I was, and everything I wished I could be. I had found the
missing link, and the world began to move again.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa was not leaning when it was built in 1173 and it was straight like a pole. It started to shift direction soon after construction because of poor foundation in addition to the loose layer of subsoil(底土). At the beginning, it leaned to the southeast before the shaky foundation started to shift leaning towards the southwest. After the period of structural strengthening in the beginning of 21st century, now the Leaning Tower of Pisa leans at an angle of 3.97 degrees.
In 1178, the shift in direction was observed for the first time when the construction had progressed further to the third floor. The tower was very heavy for the three-meter foundation that was built on a weak area of land.
For compensating(补偿) the leaning position, the builders started to construct the upper floors with one side higher than the other one. This caused the tower to lean in the other direction. This unusual structure led to the tower being actually curved. In spite of these efforts, the tower kept on leaning.
The government of Italy started to plan a prevention of the complete collapse of the tower in 1964. However, a request was put forward by the authorities to keep the leaning position because of the tourism industry of the region.
After nearly two decades of careful planning by engineers, historians and mathematicians, the stabilization（稳定；稳定化）efforts for the Leaning T ower of Pisa started in 1990. The tower was closed for the general public and the people living nearby moved away. For reducing the total weight of the tower, its seven bells which represented the seven musical notes were removed. The tower was reopened for the general public on December 15, 2001.
In May 2008, after removing another 70 metric tons of earth,
the engineers announced that the tower had been finally stabilized and it would remain stable for at least 200 years.
8. Why did the Leaning T ower of Pisa began to lean?
A. It was too high like a pole.
B. Its foundation was far from strong.
C. The work of repair was delayed.
D. Its foundation shook badly.
9. When did people notice the Leaning Tower of Pisa shift its direction?
A. As soon as it was constructed.
B. At the end of the construction.
C. Soon after the construction.
D. In the course of the construction.
10. Why did the authorities prefer to keep the leaning position of the Leaning T ower of Pisa?
A. They wanted to attract more tourists.
B. They lacked funds then.
C. It was a mission impossible to make the T ower up-straight.
D. They were short of engineers, historians and mathematicians.
11. Which of the following is the right order according to this passage?
a. People noticed the tower began to shift its direction.
b. The repair work was carried out last time.
c. The Leaning Tower of Pisa was repaired for the first time.
d. The Leaning T ower of Pisa was built.
e. The tower was opened to the visitors again.
f. The government started to make a plan for the tower.
A. c, d, a, f, b, e
B. f, e, a, d, c, b
C. d, e, b, f, c, a
D. d, a, f, c, e, b
D
Positive thinking is a significant element of happiness. In order to become a positive thinker, determination and consistency are important. The first thing to know about positive thinking is that everyone can do it. With certain cognitive (认知的) and behavioral changes, we can all become positive thinkers. Another important factor is that being a positive thinker does not mean you become numb to anything that is not working properly in your life or is negative - it just means that you approach life and face challenges with a healthier outlook.
Instead of selectively attending to negative events, focus on the positive ones. Then pay attention to the delayed consequences of your behavior rather than the immediate ones. For example, if a job is not going like you want, focus on the fact that you have a job and how you can take your time to make the situation better.
Challenge any internal attributions（归因）and see if you compare your behavior to standards that are excessively （过分地；过度地；极度地）rigid（恰当地；公正地）and perfectionistic. If so, change these and be reasonable with your comparisons. For example, if you constantly compare your weaknesses with other people's strengths, then switch this and compare yourself with those who are doing poorer than you as well. Overall, people who focus more on their strengths than their weaknesses but at the same time are aware of their weaknesses have a healthier self-evaluation result.
When faced with too much fear about a situation, imagine the worst case and visualize（形象化；设想）a solution for it, then
let go of fear. This way, you will be prepared for anything and your fear will not block you from being open and creative to different solutions. For example, if you are constantly worried about losing your job up to a point where it is creating a lot of anxiety and fear and is effecting your performance and your happiness negatively, then think of losing your job, visualize how you will handle it, find solutions in your mind and then let go of the thought and the fear attached to it.
So positive thinkers are better problem solvers and have better interactions. In addition to that, people who are positive thinkers are happier and more satisfied with their life.
12. Why is positive thinking a significant element of happiness?
A. It means that one is blind to the troubles and difficulties that exist.
B. It means that one constantly compares everything with other people's.
C. It means that one is strong in mind and has nothing to be afraid of.
D. It means that one approaches life and faces challenges more healthily.
13. What does the text suggest about the job you don't like?
A. Quitting it and finding a better one.
B. Keeping and trying to make it better.
C. Being negative and numb to it.
D. Challenging yourself with a new outlook.
14. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 4?
A. Be prepared for the worst: and let go of fear.
B. Being constantly worried will lose your job.
C. Fear will prevent you being open and creative.
D. There is nothing to fear if well prepared.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. How to focus on the positive events
B. How to be a positive thinker
C. What to do when faced with fear
D. What to know of self-evaluation

Dear Tony,
I am glad to hear that you are extremely interested in Chinese culture, especially Traditional Chinese Medicine. The TCM, as an important part of Chinese culture, has been attracting attention from all over the world.
The TCM, with its unique diagnostic methods—look, listen, question and feel the pulse, long history and remarkable effects, has been used to treat cancer and other serious diseases. Unlike the western medicine, the TCM has fewer side effects.
Above all, compared with high fees of the western medicine, the TCM has a more reasonable price that ordinary people can afford.
In a word, the TCM has made great contributions to the development of Chinese health care. Welcome to learn about it.
Yours truly,
Li Hua。
