AOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can you be a good friend at school?Listen—Listen when they are talking. Don’t say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it’s not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.Help them—If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don’t do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.Be there for them—Be there for your friends to help make them feel better in hard times. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U.S. actor, once said, “I often make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control, but if you can’t stay with me at my worst, you are sure not to deserve to be with me at my best.” Always remember this! If you don’t want to stay with your friends when they’re in hard times, then you don’t deserve to be with them when they’re having a good time!Make plans —Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have a good time. And you’ll remember these things when you’re all old!第 4 页（共 15 页）21．While your friend is talking to you about his or her feelings, you should______________.A. give him or her some adviceB. just listen unless askedC. calm him or her downD. share your feelings as well22．When we provide help for our friends, we should ___________.A. try to do everything for themB. put them before ourselvesC. change their bad habits firstD. ignore their faults23．What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe’s words?A.

As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but didn’t get it back. ”“How did you write your advertisement? ” asked one of the listeners, a merchant.“Here it is, ” said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, “Lost from the City Church last S unday evening, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street. ”“Now, ” said the merchant, “I often advertise,第 5 页（共 15 页）and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of extreme importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I’ll buy you a new one. ” The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: “If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn’t wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is well known. ”This appeared in the newspaper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door.

On the way, the plane made a one-hour stop to refuel(加油)at the New York Airport.Thinking that he had arrived, Jack got out and spent three days in New York, believing he was in Rome.When his relatives were not there to meet him, Jack thought they had been caught in the heavy Roman traffic mentioned in their letters. While looking for their address, Jack could not help noticing that modernization had changed most, if not all, of the ancient city’s landmarks. He also noticed that many people spoke English with strong American accent. However, he just thought that Americans got everywhere. He also believed that so many street signs were written in English especially for the Americans. Jack spoke very little English himself so he asked a policeman in Italian the way to the bus station. As chance would have it, the policeman came from Italy and replied in the same language. After twelve hours traveling round on a bus, the driver handed him over to a second policeman. After a brief argument with the policeman, Jack was very surprised to find that the Rome police had employed someone who did not speak his mother tongue.Jack did not believe he was told that he was in New York. In order to get on a plane to San Francisco, the policeman raced him to the airport in a police car with sirens(报警器)screaming. “See,” he said to hi s interpreter(翻译). “I know I’m in Italy. That’s how they drive.”29. Where did Jack live?A. In ItalyB. In San FranciscoC. In New YorkD. The story doesn’t mention30. Why did Jack spend three days in New York?第 7 页（共 15 页）A.

They decided that miscommunications were always possible, even over something as simple as "yes" and "no".On her first day in Micronesia, an island in the Pacific, Lisa thought people weren’t payin g any attention to her. The day was hot. She went into a store and asked, “Do you have cold drinks?’’The woman there didn't say anything. Lisa repeated the question. Still the Woman said nothing. She later learned that the woman had answered her: She had raised her eyebrows (眉毛), which in Micronesia means "yes".Jan remembered an experience she had in Bulgaria, a country in Europe. She went to a restaurant that was known for its cabbage. She asked the waiter, "Do you have cabbage today?" He nodded his head. Jan waited, but the cabbage never came.

They answered with many different nods and shakes of the head. He thought some people had not understood, so he explained again. When he asked again, they did the same thing.
