A
Cindy, Jenny and Mary are talking about what a good friend should be like.
Cindy I think a good friend should be honest. That's more important than any other thing. And it is where a friendship starts. If a friend isn't honest, he may lose his friends' trust.
Jenny I think a good friend has to be generous. Here being generous doesn't mean he has to give his friends money or clothes. It means he should share his ideas and feelings with his friends. In fact, his friends can know him better in this way.
Mary In my opinion, a good friend should understand his friends. When there's something wrong between him and his friends, he must put himself in his friends' place and think more about his friends.

Mark was eight years old. He was a primary school student. He lived near the school, so he went there and came back on foot every day. The trip only took him less than fifteen minutes. There were some small fountains on his way to school.
Almost every day, Mark came home very wet. His mother became angry and said, “Don't play in the water on your way home or to school.” The next day he came home very wet again. His mother became even angrier. “I'll tell your father if you come home wet again,” she said. “Then he'll punish you.” The next day the young boy was dry when he came home from school. “You were a good boy today,” his mother said. “You didn't play in the water.” “No,” he answered sadly. “There were so many older boys when I got there this afternoon that there wasn't any room for me at all.”
Mark's mother didn't know what to say. She just laughed.

Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.
Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.
Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had elder brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.
You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure. In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.
For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don't forget—if you are shy, you are not the only one.
根据材料内容, 选择最佳答案。
( )31. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Happiness. B. Shyness. C. Kindness. D. Loneliness.
( )32. What does the underlined word “genetic” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Passed down from parents. B. Learned from friends.
C. Taught by teachers. D. Made up by brothers.
( )33. What can be learned from the passage?
A. Most little babies are born shy and quiet.
B. If you are shy now, you will be shy forever.
C. Many shy children have elder brothers and sisters.
D. Most Israeli people are shy of expressing opinions.
( )34. We can learn from the passage that ________ may cause shyness.
A. gene, grown-ups and birthplaces
B. gene, family size and birthplaces
C. family size, grown-ups and failure
D. gene, family size and freedom
( )35. Scientists suggest that shy people can get over their shyness by ________.
A. blaming their failure on outside reasons
B. trying new things and practicing conversation
C. getting themselves away from their shy parents
D. trying to understand reasons for their shyness
D
“Your hair looks nice today.” This is an example of the compliment. It feels nice when someone notices and praises you for something. ________36 But are there cultural differences in making compliments?
________37 When a taxi driver says “Wow, your Chinese is so good!” even though the only thing I said to him was “Hello, please take me to the airport.” It feels insincere to receive a compliment like this. ________38
It also seems like Chinese people are a bit more humble than others when they receive a compliment. They often downplay the compliments they receive. I appreciate this quality, as people like this tend to be more honest. I've noticed that older people are humble. ________39
When and where should you give compliments? I try my best to compliment people in the service industry. ________40 But if I get good service, I would compliment whoever served me just by saying “The food was yummy.” This will encourage them to continue to offer their good service next time.
根据材料内容, 从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项, 使短文意思通顺, 内容完整。
A. Making compliments makes the world beautiful. B. People in my country tend to be more natural.
C. However, I know he is just trying to be polite.

【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出简单的一句赞美就可以使世界更美好,但是不同的文化会影响人们的赞美方式,中国人在听到赞美时会很谦虚等。作者也介绍了在何时何地对人们进行赞美。
36. A : 根据上文“It feels nice when someone notices and praises you for something. ”可知,文章以夸赞的例子引出赞美使人心情好的话题,故选项A符合文中语境。
37. D : 根据When a taxi driver says “Wow, your Chinese is so good!” even though the only thing I said to him was “Hello, please take me to the airport. ”,从even though可以推断出如此简单的一句话,与前句的赞美不太匹配。故选D。
38. C : 根据“It feels insincere(不诚恳的) to receive a compliment like this. ”可推断选C。
39. B : 根据第三段上文“I appreciate this quality, as people like this tend to be more honest. ”可推断,作者欣赏中国人倾向于表现得更真诚,故选B。
40. E : 根据第四段下文“But if I get good service, I would compliment whoever served me just by saying ‘The food was yummy. '从作者对服务人员赞美的态度,可推断对前文所述情况应该是持反面观点的。故正确答案为E。
三、41. B : 当我年轻的时候,我认为声音对人类来说是非常重要的。A. sight 视力;B. sound 声音;C. taste味觉;D. sense感觉。根据“My ears”可知,我认为声音是重要的,故答案为B。
42. A : 几年后,她又一次问我。A. later以后;B. earlier更早;C. ago在……之前;D. after在……之后。later副词,以后,常常放在时间段的名词之后。故答案选A。
43. B : 妈咪,视力对每个人都很重要。A. someone某人,有人;B. everyone每个人;C. something某事,某样东西;D. everything每样东西。根据常识可知,视力对于每个人都很重要。故答案选B。

45. C : 她看着我告诉我。A. looked after照顾;B. looked around游览;C. looked at看着,注视;D. looked down俯视。故答案选C。
46. C : 你正在快速地学习,但是这个回答是不正确的,因为有很多人是盲人。A. though 尽管;B. although尽管;C. but 但是;D. however不过,可是。分析本句的逻辑关系,应该是转折,故选C。
47. B : 不是,但是你每年都在变得更聪明。A. Yes是的;B. No不;C. None没有;D. Neither两者都不。根据前面“always her answer was”及后面“but”可知,妈妈的回答跟以前一样,是否定,我对于那个问题的回答还是不正确,故答案选B。
48. D : 然后去年,我的祖父去世了。A. went away走开; B. died away渐渐消逝;C. ran away逃跑;D. passed away去世。根据后一句“Everyone was hurt,and everyone was crying. ”可知祖父是去世了。故选D。
49. B : 当她问我这个的时候,我非常惊讶。A. knocked打击;B. surprised感到吃惊的;C. pleased开心的;D. moved感动的。结合语境及选项来选择,在祖父去世时,每个人都在伤心,在哭泣,妈妈在这个时候问我是否知道了答案,我为此感到吃惊。只有B项最符合我当时的内心,故答案选B。
50. C : 我总是认为这是我和她之间的一个游戏。A. match比赛;B. competition比赛;C. game游戏;D. contest竞赛。根据前一句知道妈妈问我是否知道了答案,我很震惊,因为我一直都是把这个问题当作一个游戏,而不是真正需要思考的事情,故答案选C。
51. A : 她看着我脸上的疑惑告诉我,这个问题非常重要。A. question问题;B. problem 问题;C. puzzle谜;D. saying谚语。本小题主要是考查A项与B项的辨析。两者都有“问题”的意思,但是question指说话者需要寻找答案的问题,而problem指说话者认为难以解决的问题,结合全文内容可知,这是一个需要寻找答案的问题,故选A。
52. D : 它显示了你真的在过自己的生活。A. completely完全地;B. happily高兴地;C. totally全部地;D. really真正地。本题要联系生活实际结合选项来选择,故选D。
53. A : 是因为它支撑着你的头吗?A. holds up举起,支撑;B. sets up建立;C. builds up建立;D. puts up举起,张贴。根据前面的“shoulder”可知,是肩膀支撑着头,故答案选A。

Hello, everyone! My favorite saying is, “Only your real friends will tell you when your face is dirty.”, which makes me think of my best friend named Selena. She's a girl who is serious about everything. She really cares about me and always tells me about my bad points to my face. Once, I had trouble in a math test, so I opened the book and then wrote the answer down. Luckily, no one saw me at that time. But after the test, not only did Selena say that she saw me open the book, but also she told me it was wrong. Hearing her words, my face turned red rapidly. Later, she took out of her notebook and showed me how to work out the problems. From then on, I got to realize how to make right choices and be responsible for my own life. What a serious and caring girl!
