You are self-centered.Many people do this unconsciously.You think you are the only one that matters,and often don?t care what others have to say.If this is you,it?s time to change.(37)G    You are always in competition.Are you the person who has to be better than everyone else?If so,you?re unattractive.(38)A If they overcame their fear of heights

and climbed 10feet in the air,don?t say,"That?s all?I?ve climbed 30 feet!"Instead say,"That?s wonderful.I?m really proud of you."
(39)E You are definitely unattractive when constantly asking why others don?t see you as important as you think they should.For instance,your two friends went somewhere without you.It doesn?t matter to them,but to you it does.Get over it.Your friends?lives don?t stop when you?re not around.

6.What is your favourite colour?Do you like yellow,orange,and red?(11)A.Do you prefer greys and blues?Then you are probably quiet,shy,and you would rather follow than lead.You tend to be pessimist.At least,this is what psychologists tell us,and they should know,because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference,as well as the effect that colours have on human beings.(12)B.If you happen to love brown,you did so,as soon as you opened your eyes,or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
(13)G.A yellow room makes mo st people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.

(15)E.It is an established fact that factory workers work better,harder,and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.

7.We've all heard that"money can't buy happiness,"but everyone realizes that it's impossible to survive without money since almost all material things and services are paid.That's why people waste the best and the most productive years of their life at work they hate in order to earn more money.I think that unreasonable rush for wealth is a dangerous thing,because it can make people lose life values and become inhuman.
My best friend always supported the quote by a famous American rapper 50Cent,"Get rich or die trying".It proves that money is the main aim in his life.He says that it's not happiness for him,but a thing that fills his mind with confidence and desire to live.
Money can bring either happiness or sufferings,depending on the way you invest(投资) it.Some people make new friends while others burn already built bridges.Money can both unite and create unseen barriers (隔阂)between people.
I understand that it's extremely pleasant to earn a lot of money,but you shouldn't give up everything and make money the meaning of your life,because one day it will be gone and it will be difficult to find power to get it back and move on.I hope my article will help you understand the true role of money in the life of human beings.If you admit this truth,you'll be able to reach more goals and find more time to enjoy other significant things in your life.

24.Which of the following statement the author probably agree with?C
A.People work hard only to look for their life values.
B.Money can give people all they want.
C.It is a danger to make money by any kind of means.
D.Wealth makes people lose life values.
25.What does author's friend think of money?D
A.Money is his only goal in his life.
B.Money can buy him happiness.
C.The more money he has,the better life he lives.
D.Money makes him move on confidently.
26.What's the author's attitude towards money?A
A.Neutral  B.Unconcerned   C.Grateful  D.Critical

C.The way to make more money
D.The significant things in the life of human beings.
