I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn't want me for the film—it wanted somebody as well known as Paul—he stood up for me. I don't know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.
The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft(技艺) and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other—but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心) of our relationship off the screen.
We shared the belief that if you're fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back—he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn't see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.
I last saw him a few months ago. He'd been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was, and we didn't talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words.
1. Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to the author at first
A. Paul Newman wanted it.
B. The studio powers didn't like his agent.
C. He wasn't famous enough.
D. The director recommended someone else.
2. Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship
A. They were of the same age. B. They worked in the same theater.
C. They were both good actors. D. They had similar characteristics.
3. What does the underlined word "that" in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Their belief. B. Their care for children.
C. Their success. D. Their support for each other.
4. What is the author's purpose in writing the text
A. To show his love of films. B. To remember a friend.
C. To introduce a new movie. D. To share his acting experience.
C
Before you make friends, you have to decide who you want to be your friends. Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things they do.
The quickest way to make a friend is to smile. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. It may not be easy at first to smile, but remember most people will stay away from a scaled or angry looking.
One easy way to stall a conversation with someone is to say something nice about him. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person
Ask your new friends questions about themselves. Who’s their favorite singer, where do they live, what do they do after school are all good questions to start a conversation. Make sure you have something to add to the conversation, too. Then someone asks you a question, do have an answer for it. There is nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a shrug for an answer.
Kids who show an interest in other kids and who are kind and friendly make good friends. Remember, everyone wants to be around people who like to do similar things and people who are nice to them.

People all need friends because nobody wants to be lonely and a friend can help you in good and bad times. You’ve made friends since childhood, but you still don't know who your true friends are. Here are some signs to tell you if your friend is a true friend：
Always honest
Honesty is important to keep a relationship alive. A true friend always tells you the truth. It may be hard sometimes but lying can destroy a friendship. It is important that your friend speaks honestly and never makes up stories.
_______
There are always periods in your life when you have problems or difficulties. A true friend will always have time to listen to your problems and give advice.

Mo was waiting in the corridor outside her classroom. She was feeling sick. She had two exams that day and physics was the first. She really hated physics. It was her worst subject. Terry looked back at her from the front of the line, and then looked away quickly. Mo thought she looked guilty. She didn't have a problem with physics. She didn't have a problem with anything...Miss Perfect!
"Hi, Mo, it's your favorite exam today," said Nima, laughing as she joined the line. Terry was looking at Mo again. "So what's wrong with her " asked Nima. "I thought you were friends." "Yes, so did I," said Mo. "But she hasn't spoken to me for two weeks now. She promised to help me review for the physics exam too, but then she's ignored all my calls and texts. And when I rang her house, her mum just told me she was busy. She's forgotten who her friends are!" said Mo angrily. "Are you listening to me " Mr. Reed was talking to the class and the other students were going into the exam room. Mo gave Nima a worried look and followed them.
Mo couldn't answer question number five. She looked up and saw Terry sitting two rows in front of her. Mo couldn't believe it! Terry was holding her phone on her knee under the table and reading from it. Is that how Terry always got such good grades She felt really angry at Terry, but she didn't know what to do. She thought about telling the teacher, but what would everyone else think of her "Stop writing and put your pens down," said Mr. Reed as he started to collect the exam papers. Oh no, Mo hadn't answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again!
Mo wanted to talk to Terry at lunchtime, but she couldn't find her anywhere. The next exam was history. That was Mo's favorite subject but she wasn't feeling good. Mo went to the library to study, but she couldn't concentrate. She didn't know what to do about Terry. She thought about telling a teacher, but everyone would hate her if she did that. "It isn't fair!" she thought. "Terry was getting good grades by cheating all that time," thought Mo. Just then, Mr. Reed walked past her table. "Mr. Reed..."
Mo was sitting behind Terry again in the history exam that afternoon. Mo was feeling terrible. Why had she told Mr. Reed But it was too late now. And anyway, Terry didn't want to be her Mend! Mr. Reed wanted her to look at him and nod if she saw that Terry was cheating in the exam.
Paragraph 1:
She was working on the last question when she saw that Terry had her phone under the table.

Paragraph 2:
Mo was walking towards the school gate when she heard footsteps behind her.

答案以及解析
第一部分 阅读理解
第一节
A
答案：BAC
解析：1. 推理判断题。纵观全文可知，本文是广告，所以最可能出现在报纸上。
2. 细节理解题。由题干中的a travel book可以定位到第一本书中，根据●Name：Off the Beaten Path部分中的价格对比：Cover price：$30.00和Our price：$19.80可知，可省10.20美元。

答案：CDAB
解析：1.推理判断题。根据第一段中的 "it wanted somebody as well known as Paul" 可知,这家电影公司不想把这个角色给作者,是因为他们想把角色给像保罗这样出名的人,作者还不够出名,所以答案为C项。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中的 "Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors" 可知,保罗和作者之所以有着长久的友谊,是因为他们两个人有着相似的品质,所以答案为D项。
3.词义猜测题。根据本段第一句话 "We shared the belief that if..." 可知,尽管他们不经常见面,但是正是那种信念让他们聚在了一起。由此推断出画线单词指的是他们的共同的信念,所以答案为A项。
4.推理判断题。文章开头作者介绍了自己与著名演员保罗 纽曼相识的情景,后面描述了两人的交往和深厚的友谊。最后一段指出两人的最后一面是在医院。由此推断出作者写这篇文章就是为了纪念自己的一位朋友。所以答案为B项。
C

4.词义猜测题。结合上文可知画线部分所在句的意思与When someone asks you a question, do have an answer for it.相反,画线部分所在句的意思是,没有什么比耸肩表示不知道答案能更快地结束(与他人的)对话了,故选B项。
D
答案：ADCB
解析：1.提示:段落大意题。根据文章第三段的大意可知，本段主要讲真正的朋友在你遇到困难的时候会在你身边。
2.提示:细节理解题。根据第四段"A true friend will always respect your opinion no matter whether he/she agrees or not."可知，真正的朋友不管同不同意你的观点 都会尊重你的观点。
3.提示:细节理解题。A项在第二段提到了，B项在第三段提到了，D项在第四段提到了，唯独C项与朋友分享乐趣没提到。
4.提示：细节理解题。根据文章最后一段"A true friend is always forgiving and understanding because he/ she doesn't want to take the risk of losing his/her best friend"可知，真正的朋友总是能够原谅和理解你是因为他/她不想失去你。
第二节
答案：①-⑤DCAEG
解析：①根据上文 July 30, 2011 was proposed for the first International Day of Friendship by the UNESCO. It is aimed at fostering a culture of peace through friendship. 可知第一个国际友谊日是由联合国教科文组织提名的,定于2011年7月30日,旨在通过友谊促进和平文化. D项与之构成转折关系表示现在庆祝友谊日是用来炫耀的,而且开支很大.
②本段提到了贺卡及礼品公司和商店为吸引年轻人采取的对策, C项介绍餐馆的做法,符合语境.
③设空处后面 especially the pink and yellow ones 中的 ones 指代A项中的 roses.
④根据上文 A highly popular thing... love for each other. 可知这些都是庆祝友谊日的新方式,而且越来越受欢迎.故E选项符合语境.
⑤根据下文 International Day of Friendship remains the time when you acknowledge your friends' contributions in your life, express love for them, cherish their presence in your life and salute them. 可知友谊日的基本理念没有变化。

I believe you will make many new friends and have a happy school life there.

第二节
Paragraph 1:
She was working on the last question when she saw that Terry had her phone under the table. Though feeling uneasy and restless, she looked at Mr. Reed and nodded. With her eyes glued to the phone, it wasn't until the teacher patted on her back that Terry noticed Mr. Reed. Immediately, Terry was asked to leave. Terry rushed out of the classroom, crying all the way. Instead of feeling relaxed, Mo had ants in her pants. She felt guilty for telling Mr. Reed about it, which had resulted in Terry's not finishing her exam.
Paragraph 2:
Mo was walking towards the school gate when she heard footsteps behind her. It was Terry who had just come out of the teacher's office. Feeling embarrassed, Mo wanted to run away. Nevertheless, Terry stopped her and said, "Mo, I'm sorry I haven't kept my promise to help you review physics, but my father has been badly ill for two weeks. Today he had a significant operation. I was so worried about him that I kept on reading the texts on the phone sent by my mother to get the latest news about him, so Mr. Reed forgave me. Can you forgive me " "Of course! Let's go to the hospital to see your father," Mo couldn't wait to reply.

I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn't want me for the film—it wanted somebody as well known as Paul—he stood up for me. I don't know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.
The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft(技艺) and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other—but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心) of our relationship off the screen.
We shared the belief that if you're fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back—he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn't see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.
I last saw him a few months ago. He'd been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was, and we didn't talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words.
1. Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to the author at first
A. Paul Newman wanted it.
B. The studio powers didn't like his agent.

Before you make friends, you have to decide who you want to be your friends. Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things they do.
The quickest way to make a friend is to smile. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. It may not be easy at first to smile, but remember most people will stay away from a scaled or angry looking.
One easy way to stall a conversation with someone is to say something nice about him. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person
Ask your new friends questions about themselves. Who’s their favorite singer, where do they live, what do they do after school are all good questions to start a conversation. Make sure you have something to add to the conversation, too. Then someone asks you a question, do have an answer for it. There is nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a shrug for an answer.
Kids who show an interest in other kids and who are kind and friendly make good friends. Remember, everyone wants to be around people who like to do similar things and people who are nice to them.

Mo was waiting in the corridor outside her classroom. She was feeling sick. She had two exams that day and physics was the first. She really hated physics. It was her worst subject. Terry looked back at her from the front of the line, and then looked away quickly. Mo thought she looked guilty. She didn't have a problem with physics. She didn't have a problem with anything...Miss Perfect!
"Hi, Mo, it's your favorite exam today," said Nima, laughing as she joined the line. Terry was looking at Mo again. "So what's wrong with her " asked Nima. "I thought you were friends." "Yes, so did I," said Mo. "But she hasn't spoken to me for two weeks now. She promised to help me review for the physics exam too, but then she's ignored all my calls and texts. And when I rang her house, her mum just told me she was busy. She's forgotten who her friends are!" said Mo angrily. "Are you listening to me " Mr. Reed was talking to the class and the other students were going into the exam room. Mo gave Nima a worried look and followed them.
Mo couldn't answer question number five. She looked up and saw Terry sitting two rows in front of her. Mo couldn't believe it! Terry was holding her phone on her knee under the table and reading from it. Is that how Terry always got such good grades She felt really angry at Terry, but she didn't know what to do. She thought about telling the teacher, but what would everyone else think of her "Stop writing and put your pens down," said Mr. Reed as he started to collect the exam papers. Oh no, Mo hadn't answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again!
Mo wanted to talk to Terry at lunchtime, but she couldn't find her anywhere. The next exam was history. That was Mo's favorite subject but she wasn't feeling good. Mo went to the library to study, but she couldn't concentrate. She didn't know what to do about Terry. She thought about telling a teacher, but everyone would hate her if she did that. "It isn't fair!" she thought. "Terry was getting good grades by cheating all that time," thought Mo. Just then, Mr. Reed walked past her table. "Mr. Reed..."
Mo was sitting behind Terry again in the history exam that afternoon. Mo was feeling terrible. Why had she told Mr. Reed But it was too late now. And anyway, Terry didn't want to be her Mend! Mr. Reed wanted her to look at him and nod if she saw that Terry was cheating in the exam.
Paragraph 1:
She was working on the last question when she saw that Terry had her phone under the table.

4.词义猜测题。结合上文可知画线部分所在句的意思与When someone asks you a question, do have an answer for it.相反,画线部分所在句的意思是,没有什么比耸肩表示不知道答案能更快地结束(与他人的)对话了,故选B项。
D

第二节
Paragraph 1:
She was working on the last question when she saw that Terry had her phone under the table. Though feeling uneasy and restless, she looked at Mr. Reed and nodded. With her eyes glued to the phone, it wasn't until the teacher patted on her back that Terry noticed Mr. Reed. Immediately, Terry was asked to leave. Terry rushed out of the classroom, crying all the way. Instead of feeling relaxed, Mo had ants in her pants. She felt guilty for telling Mr. Reed about it, which had resulted in Terry's not finishing her exam.
Paragraph 2:
Mo was walking towards the school gate when she heard footsteps behind her. It was Terry who had just come out of the teacher's office. Feeling embarrassed, Mo wanted to run away. Nevertheless, Terry stopped her and said, "Mo, I'm sorry I haven't kept my promise to help you review physics, but my father has been badly ill for two weeks. Today he had a significant operation. I was so worried about him that I kept on reading the texts on the phone sent by my mother to get the latest news about him, so Mr. Reed forgave me. Can you forgive me " "Of course! Let's go to the hospital to see your father," Mo couldn't wait to reply.
