【题目】When you ask people how to make friends as an adult, they usually give you suggestions like, “just get out there,” “join a dance class,” or , “try speed dating.” 1.

After all, making friends does require us to get out into the world and take a few emotional risks. Most of the time, however, we are not lacking for ideas on where to meet people. 2

For this reason, most people find that reconnecting with themselves is a first step towards reconnecting with others.

If you feel tired, out of shape, or sad, most of the time, making friends is going to be extremely difficult. 3

Start small. Use the1-minute technique to gradually increase your commitment to exercise. Get out into nature. Set a timer to remind yourself to get up every hour to stretch. Try gentle yoga.

While you build up your body, don’t forget to nourish your mind. Write down one thing every day that you are grateful for. 4

Learn to become your own best friend.

5Instead of relying on our social circumstances to bring people into our lives, we need to change ourselves first and then invite people into our lives.

A. On the surface, these are fine suggestions.

B. Spend a few minutes every day in reflection.

C. It will be even more difficult when you are an adult.

D. We only need to know how to start a conversation with strangers.

E. We are missing the motivation and self-confidence to get started.

F. Making friends as an adult is possible, but it requires a new approach.

G. Fortunately there are plenty of simple things that you can do to increase your physical and emotional resources.

【题目】阅读理解
My decision to travel around China lay merely with my curiosity about the place. Before coming here, China seemed alien to me ----a place that expected to be hugely dissimilar from my own British culture.
After travelling from Beijing up to Xi'an, I wanted to challenge myself by choosing a smaller town----Xiahe in Gansu Province. I arrived in Lanzhou at around 5 am, but there were no buses to Xiahe. I managed to spot a policeman and attempted to explain my destination to him in simple English, praying that he would understand. I wasn't sure that he did but I just followed him anyway as I had no choice. He took me on a bus and I didn't know where I was going. Luckily, I met a student who explained to me in English that the policeman was taking me to another bus station where I could take a bus to Xiahe. During this conversation a third man said he was also a policeman and would help me buy tickets. But as he was not in uniform, I was a little doubtful. The uniformed policeman told me it was OK to go with the third man, so I got off the bus with the so-called policeman who at this point, disappeared and I was left in the middle of nowhere. I stood panicking. Around one minute later a police car came and stopped right by me. It was the un-uniformed policeman. I got into the car and he dropped me directly at the bus station, and helped me buy the ticket.
This is one of many experiences that I have had in China. I realized that however different this culture was, there was one thing that would always stand out—kindness. In the west we seem to lack the foundation of trust, yet in China it seems that there will always be someone to answer your questions and lead you the right way.

【题目】I find it interesting that even the ordinary happenings can have an effect on our experiences.My wife and I moved into our house nine years ago.We spent a lot of time and energy in the yard.There were some rocks there. Whenever we had found flowers,we would plant them,just to bring some color to the area.

Last summer I found a little plant that I could not immediately recognize.I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise said that she didn't,either.We decided to let it continue growing until we could find out what it was.

Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the mysterious plant,it appeared to be a sunflower.It was spindly(瘦弱的)and had only one head on it.I decided to baby it along and weed around it.As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds,I noticed something unusual.The sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk(茎)begin.It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under around it to reach the sun.
