Body language is an important part of communication. If you want to communicate well，it's important to understand how to use your body to say what you mean, especially when you're in a foreign country.

There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example, if we want to use our money wisely, we need to shop carefully. We need to know how to compare the prices of things in different shops. We need to be able to compare the quality of different brands. We need to know how to make a sensible choice when we shop.

Knowing how to make such choices is a "life skill", and we need these skills if we want to live useful and happy lives.

Most life skills are about making choices. Every day we have to make many choices. For example, will I eat healthy food for lunch or will I cat junk food because it is tasty? Will I work hard in all my classes or will I waste time? We make choices like this every day.

Making the wrong choices can bring unhappiness. We have realized that the choices we make can affect the rest of our lives. Just as importantly, our choices can also affect other people. The next time you misbehave in class or fight with your brother or sister, think about this:who else does your choice affect?

Katie Steller has her own salon. She often wheels her red chair and scissors around the city to give free haircuts.

Edward was her first lucky customer. He looked to be in his 60s. He was balding and missing a few teeth. While she was cutting his grey hair, he told her about moving closer to his adult children. Till now, Steller has offered about 30 such haircuts. These people are all living a hard time, and she realizes the power of her clean-up job.

"It's more than a haircut." she says. "I want it to be a gateway to show value and respect, but also to get to know people. I want to build relationships." Steller knows that a haircut can change a life. As a teen, she had a very serious illness and her hair thinned terribly. Her mother took Steller for her first professional haircut.

"To sit down and have somebody look at me and talk to me like a person and not just an illness. It helped me feel cared about and less lonely." she says.

After that, Steller knew she wanted to have her own salon so that she could help people feel the way she had felt that day. In 2019, she began her Red Chair Project. She says,“I can't fix their problems with free haircuts, but maybe I can help them feel less lonely for a moment."

Early this year she started the Steller Kindness Project, in which people who do acts of kindness are invited for a free haircut at Steller's salon. In exchange, they tell their stories, which Steller shares on her website. Her hope is that by reading about kind acts, others will spread their own.

So far, Steller has had people reach out from around the country.

31.Why did Steller start her Red Chair Project?

C.To help some people feel less lonely.

D.To invite customers to tell their stories.

52.What does the word "fix" in the Paragraph 5 mean?

A.discuss    B.solve    C.reply    D.face

53.Which of the following words can describe Katie Steller best?

A.Lonely and creative.         B.Helpful and kind.

C.Polite and humorous.        D.Serious and careful.

34.Which sentence best expresses the theme of the story?

A.Simple act of kindness like a free haircut will spread.

B.Haircuts need practice and practice makes perfect.
