Friendship Magazine
Many people celebrate Friendship Day although they may celebrate it on different dates. In most countries, it falls on the first Sunday of August. The tradition of celebrating a day in honor of friends began in the US in 1935. Gradually, the festival became popular across the world. Here is how some of our readers spend Friendship Day.
Jane, France
I do celebrate Friendship Day. I usually invite some of my friends to a nice restaurant to have heart-to-heart talks. The talks help to develop our friendship. We love and understand one another better.
Ben, England I like this special holiday. On this day, I draw toy bears on small cards and send them to my friends. With these cards, I show my love and care for them.
Mark, Australia We boys celebrate Friendship Day, too, but in a different way. We may play tennis or go camping together. It’s really fun!
Anna, Canada This holiday reminds me of how much my friends mean to me. I can’t think of life without friends. On this day my friends and I always send wrist bands to each other. How we love this day!
21. Where did the Friendship Day begin
A. In France. B. In the US. C. In Canada. D. In England.
22. Who draws bears on cards and sends them to friends on Friendship Day
A. Jane. B. Mark. C. Ben. D. Anna.

At the end of August this year I moved from London to a small town in Quebec, Canada, called Matane to work as an English teacher. Patience is a word that has appeared in many forms over the. past two months.
I don’t see myself as being the most patient person in the world, but I was deeply impressed by my experience in the first week of teaching. I had just finished a discussion with two students and just as they were leaving the classroom, one of them turned back and said “Thank you for your patience.” That was an early reminder of the importance being patient as a teacher. Moreover, patience in the classroom can be the difference between building students’ confidence in a language and breaking down their confidence entirely. Being patient as a teacher means empathizing (共鸣) with students. It is not easy to learn a new language and allowing students to find their way will benefit them in the long term.
Living my life in French is not easy but the people of Quebec are very patient. Quebecers repeat things several times and they are more than happy to wait while I find the correct words to express myself. It’s a learning process, but with the patience of others the process is less frightening.
When I first arrived in Matane, I kept getting headaches from having to concentrate all the time due to the language. I had to keep reminding myself that it would take time, and two months later the headaches are a distant memory and my ears have become more used to the Quebecois accent. The key is to be patient with yourself. There, is no short cut to learning a language, but it will be worth it in the end.
24. Why did the author move to Quebec
A. To learn French. B. To see a doctor. C. To visit a friend. D. To teach English.
25. What language do people of Quebec mainly speak
A. English. B. French. C. Spanish. D. Russian.
26. How do the Quebecers behave while talking with the author
A. Laugh loudly. B. Speak quickly. C. Wait patiently. D. Think seriously.
27. What lesson has the author learned from the experiences
A. It is difficult to make a living in France.
B. It is wrong to move from London to Quebec.
C. Being patient in learning a language is worth it.
D. Students should know the importance of patience.

Cyclocross is cross-country bicycle racing. Racers spend only part of a race on their bikes because only part of the two-mile race is smooth. Other parts of the race have the challenge of obstacles (障碍). When racers reach them, they can ride over them, or pick up their bikes and run.
To be a top racer, you must dismount without slowing down at all. To do this, swing your right leg over the bike seat. At the same time, move the bike away from your body. This makes room for your right foot to hit the ground next to your left foot. As your right foot nears the ground, take your left foot away from the bike. Put both feet on the ground and start running!
As soon as you are running, you have to decide what to do with your bike. You may shoulder it or lift it. It’s important to practice both skills. Sometimes you need to run fast and jump over some obstacles. As your feet hit the ground, you reach down and catch the bottom of your bike. Lift up carefully and keep the bike on your right shoulder while you run. Sometimes you may lift your bike. You catch the top of your bike. Then you lift the bike high enough to get over the obstacles and carefully put the bike on the ground.
After you have carried your bike across an obstacle, you will need to remount. As soon as your bike is on the ground, push off with your left leg, swing your right leg over the bike seat, and move into riding position. Remounting can be the hardest skill of cyclocross. You can learn by watching someone who remounts well.
Cyclocross is a great way to stay active and have fun. However, it can be dangerous. Make sure that you are well prepared. Then, you will just need to go!
28. What can we learn about cyclocross from the text
A. It’s a cross-city bike race. B. It’s a challenging bike race.
C. It’s a no-obstacle bike race. D. It’s a dangerous running race.
29. What does the underlined word “dismount” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Get off a bike. B. Pick up a bike. C. Get back on a bike. D. Practice riding a bike.
30. Why does a racer have to shoulder a bike in a race
A. To take care of the bike. B. To jump over obstacles.
C. To make room for others. D. To hit the ground harder.
31. What is the text mainly about
A. The popularity of cyclocross racing. B. The history of cyclocross racing.
C. The records of cyclocross racing. D. The skills of cyclocross racing.

As you grow older, you’ll be faced with some challenging decisions like whether to cut class or try cigarettes. Making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people take part in and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even harder. People who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers (同龄人). When they try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system (太阳系). Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone’s reading it. These are examples of how peers positively influence each other.
Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them. Your soccer friend might try to convince (使信服) you to be mean to another player and never pass him the ball.
It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.
You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.” Peer pressure is a big reason why they say this. If you choose friends who don’t cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won’t do these things either, even if other kids do.
If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to deal with, talk to someone you trust. Don’t feel guilty (内疚) if you’ve made a mistake or two.
32. For whom is the passage most probably written
A. Teachers. B. Parents. C. Doctors. D. Students.
33. How are both Paragraph 2 and 3 developed
A. By examples. B. By space. C. By stories. D. By time.
34. Which of following may help deal with peer pressure
A. Choosing friends with no bad habits. B. Spending more time with classmates.
C. Helping others who are in trouble. D. Taking up more relaxing hobbies.
35. What is the best title of the passage
A. Peer Pressure B. Self-confidence C. Friendship D. Making Decisions

37 However, they are not. Most of those actions are the byproduct of your habitual patterns. According to a research published by Duke University, 40% of peoples’ daily activities are born from habits, not decisions made after careful consideration.
Habits play an essential role in our lives. They profoundly impact our health, productivity, financial security, and happiness. 38 Nevertheless, most of us fail to do so and easily revert (恢复) to our regular patterns. However, once we understand the science behind habit formation, we can break habits into parts and restructure them to develop good ones that fit our needs and high- er productivity.
Actually, many people are eager to form good habits and drop bad ones. 39 The answer is to start with key habits. Key habits are the most influential habits for transforming lifestyles. Studies show that people who routinely exercise also are more productive at work. Families that habitually eat dinner together are found to raise children with better grades and improved emotional control. These are examples of key habits causing a chain reaction in one’s life. 40 .

A Bowl of Noodles
Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn’t help crying sadly when she thought of the scolding from her mother. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat, but it was not even possible for her, since she had nothing with her. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “He, girl, you want to have the noodles ”
“Oh, yes... but I don’t have money on me...” she replied.
“That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man,
“Come in.”
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. Jenny thanked the man and started to gobble (狼吞虎咽) up the delicious food... then cried silently.
“What is it ” asked the man kindly.
“Nothing, actually I was moved by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears, “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so mean and cruel!”
Hearing the words, the seller smiled “Girl, do you really think so I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times that she has cooked for you Have you expressed your thanks to her ”
Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock; she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands. “Why did I not think of that A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”
On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.
