Etiquette & social skills: classes for teens
The online class
Keep teens busy while learning important etiquette and social skills for personal and professional
success. This interactive online class will cover introductions and greetings, confident body language,
digital diplomacy (cellphones, email, texting, social media and video conferencing), conversation skills as
well as table manners and dining etiquette. The class is four days long, taking place on Tuesdays and
Thursdays for 75 minutes and is conducted with Zoom. Fee: $100 per teen (a 10% discount for two or
more children).
The in-person class
In this class, teens will learn the essential skills they need to confidently and comfortably deal with
social and professional situations. This fun, interactive four-hour class will also cover the same topics as
our online class does. However, the class takes place on Saturdays and Sundays. Fee: $120 per teen, which
includes a three-course lunch and workbooks. Space is limited to 12 teens. Additional classes can be added
if the class fills up.
Dates and time: August 13/14, 2022, 10:00 am to 2:00 pm
Location: World Trade Center Seattle

Growing up, Cassie Holmes was known as “Little Miss Happiness”. A cheerful outlook seemed to come
naturally to her—or at least nothing in her life suggested that the word was anything but a sunny place.
Then, just a week before she was to marry her childhood sweetheart, her cellphone rang: her fiance had
abruptly decided to call things off. The experience left her ashamed and depressed. “I was confronted with
the harsh reality that had things happened,” Ms. Holmes writes. “Feeling this depth of unhappiness forced
me to realize that I shouldn’t rely on my preference to experience happiness going forward.”
Ms. Holmes, a social psychologist at UCLA’s Anderson School, was studying exactly how people can
make themselves feel better and get through tough situations. In “Happier Hour: Focus on What Matters
Most”, she vividly conveys what she has learned from her study. Happiness is a well-covered topic, and so
Ms. Holmes has focused her research on how people can spend their time to boost well-being.
One of the first misconceptions she tackles is that more free time is always better. Her analysis of time-
use data and well-being finds that people are the happiest with 2 to 5hours of free time per day—a nice
reality check for anyone fantasizing (幻想) about quitting a job to move to a tropical island. It is also a
comforting statistic for those who, like Ms. Holmes, are raising young kids. Two hours is achievable if 10
is not, and 10, it turns out, may not be better anyway.
Life will always include episodes and events that almost seem to lower our spirits. “Happiness is a
choice,” she writes. “How we decide to approach our hours and spend our days determines the happiness
we get to enjoy in life.”
4. What are the first two paragraphs intended for?
A.Displaying Holmes’ happy childhood.
B.Describing Holmes’ failed marriage.
C.Showing what sparked Holmes’ study.
D.Making Holmes’ experience known.
5. What does Holmes’ study concentrate on?
A.Physical and mental well-being. B.The harsh reality a person faces.
C.The general concept of happiness. D.A person’s time-related happiness.
6. How does Holmes rate the idea of “quitting a job to move to a tropical island”?
A.Unbelievable. B.Unacceptable. C.Appealing. D.Practical.
7. What does the author try to tell us in the last paragraph?
A.Our life is full of ups and downs.
B.Happiness is hard for us to seek.
C.We are the masters of our happiness.
D.Determination is the key to happiness.
C
To raise money for restaurant workers who had to stay at home during COVID, two brothers, Aiden
and Louis Ardine, decided to walk 3,200 miles across America to raise money.
Having just arrived on the sands of the Pacific Ocean, Aiden and Louis Ardine have now completed
their five-month walk which started on the Asbury Park boardwalk in New Jersey. They hoped to raise
$30,000 for some charities (慈善组织) that were helping restaurant workers waiting for lockdown (隔离)
to end, but ended up making $70,000 — which they gave way to the COCO Fund and the Restaurant
Workers’ Community Foundation.
“This would not have been possible without the help of a huge community of people, whether people
were donating or helping us guide our way across the United States.” said Aiden Ardine. “This was surely
an adventure full of hope, and it proved people are born good and want to help their neighbors.”
Just like cross-country trips in this nation, their journey was characterized by amazing views, long roads,
and helpful strangers: like a man who passed them in the extreme heat of summertime Iowa, before
doubling back and giving them a cold Gatorade; or a Nevada campground manager who left them stay for
free.
In Utah they had what the naturalist John Muir would have described as an “interview” with a black
bear, when rounding a corner in the path, they found themselves within a few feet of it.
When they reached San Francisco, their supporters were waiting for them on the beach. Afterwards they
flew home along with their mom who had been there to meet them. After their adventurous stay away from
home, we can only imagine she was really feeling proud of her sons.
8. What did the two brothers collect money for?
A.Setting up some charities.
B.Helping to end the lockdown.
C.Completing their five-month walk.
D.Aiding restaurant workers stuck at home.
9. Which word can best describe the two brothers?
A.Humorous. B.Caring. C.Curious. D.Honest.
10. What happened to the brothers in Utah?
A.They met with a bear. B.They were interviewed.
C.They visited a naturalist. D.They were lost in the path.
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.A Long Journey B.Walk with Love C.A Proud Mother D.Adventure with Fun
D
People use laughter to connect and bond with others. It’s how we tell friends that we find their jokes
funny, or how kids in a park show that they are having fun. Laughter is so important to humans, even if
they belong to different cultures or speak different languages. What about animals? Scientists are studying
if there is a connection between animals’ laughing and playing.
Sasha Winkler, from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), studies biological
anthropology (人类学)，including the study of animal behavior. She noticed that the small monkeys she
