I went to a supermarket yesterday. While walk around，I noticed a credit card on the floor by chances. I picked it up and waited for an owner. No one comes. Suddenly, a lady with an anxiously look rushed in. So I approached her and asked why she had lost something. She did, her credit card. I asked her name but confirmed that it matched the card. Then I returned to her. She said she had prayed to her mother, who had passed away recently, to help her find the card. We talked and I introduced for myself, “My name is Claire.” She responded, “My mother’s name is Claire, either!”

Tips for taking care of friendships
Some people are meant to come and go from your lives quickly. Other friends may grow with you as your life changes. One way to keep friendships of any level strong is to take good care of them.
Send handwritten notes
Just find a note card, write something by hand, and then mail it. 1. Since electronic communication is becoming popular these days, a handwritten note can really make an impression.
Be active in contacting friends
Many people call up friends only when they need something. The problem with this is it makes it look as if you don’t really care about your friend. 2. Regularly check in with your friends so they know you are sincere.
Call up friends
Electronic communication is great, but there is nothing like hearing your friend’s voice to give you a lift. Make a point to call up friends and check in with them. 3.. Just a few minutes every month can make a difference in your friendship.
Give meaningful gifts
Put some thought into the gifts you give a friend. 4.. In fact, often the smallest but most thoughtful ones are the biggest hit.
5.

B．Get together with friends
C．The phone calls don’t have to be long
D．The presents don’t have to be large or expensive
E. This will really stand out in your friend’s mailbox

Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.
Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warming. An avalanche(雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.
But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go — to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City — its present population is 762.

2.What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson?

C. They were unable to stand the winter.
D. They were short of food.
4.What is the text mainly about?
