Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.We see neighbors practically every day — in the morning before we rush to work and in the evening when we return. But have you ever thought it over why neighbors are so important to our lives?11Neighbors can help bring out our social best. After all, neighbors deserve to be treated with respect and friendliness like everyone else.Neighbors can be helpful too. They can help look after our houses when we are away on holiday. If you are new to the neighborhood, they can advise you on how things operate, where to go and so on.Hence, if you have a good relationship with your neighbors, it is easier to solve problems like who should keep the passageways clean, or who should do repairs on retaining walls (挡土墙) or fences.Of course, you have good and bad neighbors.The good neighbors help one another. A good neighbor may spend their own money buying young trees and planting them to beautify the neighborhood for everyone, or may help to dig a communal garden bed for roses.Good neighbors give each other food occasionally. It’s not what and how often you give, it’s the thought that counts.Then you have the bad neighbors.I know of a neighbor who trimmed the branches of his tree, letting them fall and damage another neighbor’s fence and nearby plants.matter even when the victimized neighbor complained12. The bad neighbor also had a fierce dog and does not bother to put it on a leash13. This dog has frightened some older ladies living close by.Then there are neighbors who are a little bit too “nosy”. They invade your privacy too often by focusing on their binoculars on your homes or asking too many questions about your activities14.If you have problems with your neighbors, you’d better discuss these with them openly. You might be living with them for years and it is in both your interests to solve these problems amicably (友善地)15.You can get a restraining order to stop a neighbor from harassing you or your property.Taking legal action to solve a problem with a neighbor should be the last choice. If you have to take this action, then it might be better to move to another neighborhood.11.

The unconscious mind is like a “yes” person, agreeing, accepting and reminding.Hence, your unconscious mind can respond positively or negatively, depending on how you have consciously conditioned it — by constantly thinking about something.If you keep thinking negatively of someone, you will constantly say negative things about that person when you are chatting away with another friend.If you keep telling yourself that it is very difficult to study English or that your English lecture is boring, then that thought will always crop up uninvited when you are chatting with someone or doing something else.That is how the unconscious mind works. That is why successful athletes who consciously, continuously and consistently focus on superior performance actually perform well because they are driven by their unconscious mind.18It’s important to understand that whatever you consciously focus on, your unconscious mind will accept it. You need to think positively so that your unconscious mind will respond likewise.19If you find yourself in a negative mood, discontinue that mood. Perhaps look at yourself through a mirror and see how “ugly” your face is when you are in a bitter mood. If you have a coin, flip i t over. Say to yourself: “There are two sides of me, the good and the bad. Now I seem to be bad, so let’s focus on the good.”You must not hold a negative thought too long, or it will come back again and get more rooted in your system. Once you are in a negative system, it would take much more reprogramming to uproot the bad “trees” in your mind. You could have a full-grown negative “forest” in your mind — and that could take ages to uproot. So place it with a positive thought. Affirm consciously, continuously and consistently your new positive image. Focus on the new trait visually and see yourself succeeding in it.20Review your behavior. Do you moan and groan too often? Do you talk like a loser? Are you small-minded, selfish and unforgiving?It’s time you consciously conditioned your unconscious mind to work in a positive manner.1616.
