Dear Dani,
My friend makes up stories about things she has done all the time and other people at school believe her. What should I do?
Anna
Dani says:
Often people make things up because they’re worried that they are not interesting. So let your friend know that she doesn’t need stories to make friends or impress (给……留下深刻印象) others. Point out that when others discover the truth, they won’t be impressed at all.
Dear Dani,
I have two best friends and they’re always leaving me out! They never invite me to anything. What can I do?
Tom
Dani says:
Groups of three can be very difficult because one person often gets left out. Your friends may not realize how you feel. Talk to them about this and agree to plan the next outing together. With a bit of effort, a group of three can be a wonderful friendship!
Dear Dani,
I told my friend a secret, but then I found out she told it to somebody else. What can I do?
Daisy
Dani says:
We all make mistakes so give your friend another chance. But tell her that your secret is important to you and that she must not do this again. If your friend finds it hard to keep a secret, be careful what you tell her in future.
Dear Dani,
I’m friends with a boy, but some girls keep laughing at me about it. Can’t girls be friends with boys as well?
Mary
Dani says:
Of course girls can be friends with boys. Some girls laugh at this because they don’t really know any boys. Carry on enjoying your friendship. If the girls got to know this boy, they might stop teasing you. Why not invite one or two of them along next time you meet him?

Will it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those testes included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effort than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention in class. Contrary to what many people believe, people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce other meals.
1.The title of the passage should be ________.
A. the importance of breakfast
B. the result of a test
C. breakfast will make you clever
D. breakfast is more important than other meals
2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Poor breakfast affects those who work with brains.
B. Morning diet may cause one to get fatter.
C. Reducing lunch and supper is of less value in weight-losing.
D. Eating less in lunch and supper may help to lose weight.
3.During the test, those who were tested were given ________.
A. no breakfast at all B. very rich breakfast
C. little food for breakfast D. different foods or none.
4.The passage mentions that many people believe that if you don't eat breakfast, you will ________.
A. lose weight B. not lose weight
C. be healthier D. gain a lot of weight
