Why d We Use Zip Cdes?
Everyne has memrised exactly tw ZIP cdes:90210 and whatever their wn ZIP cde is.We can thank a certain TV shw set in Beverly Hills fr that.
Aside frm that,general knwledge f these five-digit figures is pretty limited.We put them at the end f addresses,and then ur mail magically gets delivered t the right lcatin.We discvered ne f the mst highly kept secrets all mail carriers knw:what ZIP cdes really are and hw they wrk.
The entire practice f using ZIP cdes is a relatively new system that was put in place n July 1,1963.Befre that,starting in 1943,the US Pstal Service used a series f pstal znes fr large cities nly.
In 1944,a pstal wrker named Rbert Mn handed n an idea fr a new pstal zne system that wuld cver the whle cuntry.The first number wuld stand fr a grup f states,starting at zer n the east cast and ending at nine n the west cast,and the secnd and third numbers wuld specify (详述)t which sectinal centre facility (the place where mail gets prcessed and distributed) the mail shuld g in that area.The US Pstal Service eventually adpted this plan and,the Zne Imprvement Plan Cde—r ZIP cde—was brn.
Abut 20 years after the first ZIP cdes were put int place,the Pstal Service made ne mre adjustment:the fur digits that cme after yur ZIP cde.These stand fr a specific area that any given pst ffice cvers.The sixth and seventh numbers refer t a delivery sectr,which culd be a grup f streets,ne large building,r anther small gegraphic area.The last tw stand fr a delivery segment(片区).
Even thugh the US Pstal Service says the prper cntributin t the ZIP cde’s creatin ges t a cmmittee f peple,ur addresses wuld lk quite different if it weren’t fr Mn’s numerical inspiratin.
8.Why are many peple familiar with ZIP cde “90210”?
A.It’s easy t understand and memrise.
B.It’s because f a famus TV prgramme.
C.It’s related with Beverly Hills.
D.It’s a ZIP cde f five-digit figures.
9.What can we knw abut pstal znes used in 1943?
A.It was the entire practice f ZIP cdes.
B.It was used fr a very lng time.
C.It was ppular with big cities.
D.It wasn’t very cnvenient t use.
10.What des the third number in a ZIP cde stand fr accrding t Mn’s system?

It’s tugh t see r hear f a friend in crisis.One idea t keep in mind is that it is healthy fr the distressed persn t feel what he r she feels in the mment.When a persn in crisis feels understd,he r she feels less alne and cnnected t the persn wh understands.
A persn,wh experiences empathy(同理心)frm a friend wh can “g there” fr a few minutes in rder t authentically understand while still maintaining a strng and supprtive attitude,may be relieved and healed.While a friend is telling yu abut the circumstance,the first and mst imprtant step is t listen fr feelings,nt ways t slve the prblem.
Fr example,a friend is terribly upset because her husband is threatening t leave her.After fully hnuring the feelings,it is imprtant t ask the friend what wuld help.Maybe it is a gd cry and sme ice cream.Perhaps it’s a glass f wine and a walk.Everyne has different ways f dealing.Be respectful and ask the friend what she needs r wants,nt what yu prescribe.
Take a secnd example,saying a clse friend is being misrepresented by ther friends.The friends are gssiping abut her.During a cnversatin with her,listen fr feelings.Hnur her hurt and shck.The same equatin is useful with a partner.
Helping a friend r partner in crisis nt nly helps the persn,but creates clseness and trust in the relatinship,making pening up in the prbable future.In additin,the persn wh is empathizing feels psitive because he r she was able t help.When a persn is truly able t cmfrt and reassure a lved ne,he r she feels vital and useful,strengthening the relatinship.
12.What shuld we d first when we knw a friend is in crisis?

C.Understand hw he/she feels.
D.Shw him/her ways t slve the prblem.

C.A way t listen fr feelings.
D.A way t hnur the feelings.
14.Hw des the authr prve his/her idea?
A.By listing data.B.By quting sayings.
C.By giving examples.D.By cnducting surveys.
15.What des the text mainly talk abut?
A.Hw t keep a lved ne.
B.Hw t make new friends.
C.Hw t wrk with yur partner.
D.Hw t help a friend in truble.
