Friendships can be difficult — because often people aren't as honest and open as they should be. Sometimes, people finally get hurt. Most problems with friendships come up because people are just too selfish to care about the things that their friends need. They care about their own needs much more, which makes it hard for friendships to work. However, being selfish is part of human nature. A person is put together in order to take care of themselves and their own needs, not necessarily those needs of other people. Even though being selfish is something that all humans are born with, it is something that everyone should be against. The best thing to remember when you are a friend to anyone is that you need to treat your friends the same way that you'd like to be treated(对待). This is wonderful advice for a friendship, because it is really the only way to make sure that you are giving your friends everything you would want to be given in a friendship. Whenever you have a question about how you should treat a friend, it is easy to find an answer simply by asking yourself what you would like your friend to do for you, if he or she was in your shoes. Even if you're always thinking about how you'd like to be treated, and your friends are too, there are problems that come up from time to time in each friendship, and it is important to understand how to deal with these problems so that you can build stronger and healthier friendships. Problems like friends getting boyfriends or girlfriends and not spending enough time with their friends, or even friends finding new friends and leaving old friends behind are problems that will probably come up with one or more of your friendships. It is important to know how to deal with these friend problems so that you can keep your friends and make new ones. No one wants to have a broken friendship. 1.This passage mainly talks about ________. A. the importance of friendship B. the advantages(益处) of friendship C. the problems of friendship D. the disadvantages(劣势) of friendship 2.According to the writer, problems with friendship may appear when ________. A. one is honest B. one is selfish C. one is open D. one is kind 3.According to the passage, the first and most important thing to be other people's friend is ________. A. to treat your friend as you like to be B. to give your friends whatever you have C. not to hurt your friends' feelings D. not to think of your own need any more 4.What's the purpose of understanding how to deal with friendship problems? A. To have a comfortable life. B. To build stronger and healthier friendships. C. To be treated the way you want. D. To get a boyfriend or girlfriend more quickly.

When the lazy days of summer arrive and the schedule is filled with swimming，camp，and family vacations，it can be a challenge to find time for learning. But kids’ reading skills don’t have to grow cold once school’s out. Here are some ways to make reading a natural part of their summer fun： Explore your library. Visit your local library to borrow books and magazines that your kids haven’t seen before. Many libraries have summer reading programs, book clubs, and reading contests(比赛) for even the youngest borrowers. With a new library card，a child will feel extra grownup by borrowing books. Read on the road. Going on a long car trip？Make sure there are some books at the back seat. When you stop driving，read the books aloud. Get some audio books in libraries and listen to them together during driving time. Make your own books. Pick one of your family’s favorite parts of summer—whether it’s baseball，ice cream, or the pool—and have your child draw pictures of it or cut out pictures from magazines. Stick(粘贴) the pictures onto paper to make a booklet(小册子)and write text for it. When you’re done，read the book together. Reread it whenever you like! Keep in touch. Kids don’t have to go away to write about summer vacation. Even if your family stays home，they can send postcards to tell friends and relatives about their adventures(冒险经历). Ask a relative to be your child’s pen pal and encourage them to write each week. Keep up the reading habits. Even if everything else changes during the summer，keep up the reading habits around your house. Read with your kids every day—whether it’s just before bedtime or under a shady tree on a lazy afternoon. And don’t forget to take a book to the beach！Just brush the sand off the pages — it’s no sweat! 1. The purpose of the passage is to________.

Earlier this year I traveled to Turkana in Kenya. I was there to take pictures of the “broken food system”. As a special visitor, I was greeted with songs and dances. The locals used to sing and dance all the time but now Turkana is silent and has been for some years. No one is singing or dancing any more because they have no food, nothing to celebrate. Many of them are surviving on a little corn a day and water, which they can get just every two days. I met Tede Lokapelo, a local farmer who described the experience of a six-year drought(干旱). Tede used to have 200 goats, but now he has only seven left. He told me that this drought has taught him a hard lesson: It is too difficult to keep animals. He lives on animals. His traditional way of life has been completely destroyed now. Without the food aid(援助) they got, Tede is certain that they would starve because there are no other ways to feed themselves left. Sadly, the same can be heard in almost any developing country around the world. Almost one billion people go to bed hungry each night. The food system is broken. In Turkana, not enough rain has fallen since 2005. They measure(测量) rainfall not in days or weeks but in minutes. More and more people are being forced to rely on food aid, but people like Tede don’t want food aid. They want to work and develop their country. It’s our responsibility(责任) to change the situation so that they can support themselves. Drought is impossible to avoid but famine(饥荒) is manmade, and unless enough money is provided to develop a basic infrastructure(基础设施) for people in the area, thousands more lives are sure to be lost. 1. Why do people in Turkana no longer sing or dance any more? A. Because they have no time. B. Because they are tired of them. C. Because they are always hungry. D. Because they have other interesting things to do. 2.During the drought Tede had experienced, ______of his goats were killed. A. 200 B. 193 C. 7 D. 6 3. Which of the following is NOT true about Tede Lokapelo? A. He was a farmer in Kenya. B. He has never received any food aid. C. His traditional way of life ha s been changed. D. He found it hard to raise animals after the drought. 4.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To show drought is serious in the world. B. To tell readers the serious situation of food shortage(短缺). C. To ask more people to give food aid to people in Kenya. D. To make it clear what is the right way to help people suffering from drought.

根据短文内容，从下框的A～E项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余项。 A. Gift giving proven(证明) to be valuable. B. Memories from gift giving. C. Moments and events for gift giving. D. Various functions(功能) of gift giving. E. Gift giving as a two-way(双向的) social activity. Gift Giving 1.________ There are many occasions (场合) for giving gifts in modern societies: birthdays, naming ceremonies（庆祝仪式）, weddings, anniversaries（周年纪念日）, New Year. People often give gifts on many of these celebrations in western countries. Sometimes special events, such as one’s first day of school or graduation from university, often require gift giving. 2.________ What is happening when we give gifts? Most important, we are exchanging gifts. If someone gives me a gift for my birthday, I know that I should give one on his or her next birthday. 3.________ Gifts tighten(使紧密) personal relationships and provide a means of communication between loved ones. People say that a gift lets the recipient (接受者) know we are thinking of them, and that we want to make the person “feel special. ”We want people to feel wanted, to feel part of our social or family group. We give presents to say “I’m sorry.” 4.________ People tend to talk about presents in a fairly loving way. A woman whose mother had died years ago described the many gifts around her house. These were gifts that her mother had given her over the years: “I appreciate these, and they mean something to me,” the woman said, “because I remember the occasions they were given on, and that they were from my mother, and the relationship we’ve had. ” The gifts remain and keep the relationship alive in mind. This woman felt the same way about the gifts she gave to others. She hoped that the recipients would look at her gifts in years to come and remember her.
