18.Everyone needs friends.There is an old saying,"Friends are God's way of taking care of us."But how do you find real friendship and keep it?
The American writer Sally Seamans tells young students some smart ways to find friends.Sally says finding friendship is just like planting a tree.You plant the seed and take care of it to make it grow.
First,you should choose a friend.What makes a good friend?It is not because a person has money or good looks.A good friend should be kind and patient.For example,if you have a bad day,a good friend should listen to your complaints and do his or her best to help.To make a friend,you cannot be too shy.You should make each other happy and share your lives.
But things cannot always be happy.Even the best friends have fights.What should you do when you have a fight with your friend?You have to talk to him or her.When there is no one around,have an honest talk.If he or she doesn't want to talk,you could write a letter.
There are three steps to being friends again:
Tell him or her how you are feeling; say what your friend has done wrong,and explain why you did this or that.Remember that friendship is the most important thing in your life.

36.Sally wants to tell students the ways toA.
A.find friends         
B.plant trees       
C.get happy       
D.keep fit
37.What makes good friends?A good friend shouldB.
A.be lovely and cool                     
B.be kind and patient
C.have lots of money                     
D.have good looks
38.According to the text,you canD your friend after a fight.
A.buy a present for                      
B.never say a word to
C.have dinner with                      
D.write a letter to
39.What is the best title of the text?D
A.Teenagers and friendship                
B.The good friends around you
C.The trouble of growing up               
D.The care and keeping of friends.
19.Bringing up children is hard work,and you are often to blame for any bad behavior of your children.If so,Judith Rich Harris has good news for you.Parents,she argues,have no important long-term effects on the development of the personality of their children.Far more important are their playground friends and neighborhood.Ms.Harris takes to hitting the assumption,which has dominated(支配) developmental psychology for almost half a century.
Ms.Harris's attack on the developmental psychologists'"nurture"argument looks likely to reinforce(加强) doubts that the profession was already having.If parents matter,why is it that two adopted children,brought up in the same home,are no more similar in personality than two adopted children brought up in separate homes?Or that a pair of identical twins,brought up in the same home,are no more alike than a pair of identical twins brought up in different homes?
Difficult as it is to track the clear effects of parental upbringing,it may be harder to measure the exact influence of the peer(同龄人) group in childhood and adolescence.Ms.Harris points to how children from immigrant homes soon learn not to speak at school in the way their parents speak.But acquiring a language is surely a skill,rather than a characteristic of the sort developmental psychologists hunt for.Certainly it is different from growing up tensely or relaxed,or from learning to be honest or hard-working or generous.Easy though it may be to prove that parents have little impact on those qualities,it will be hard to prove that peers have vastly more.
Moreover,mum and dad surely cannot be ignored completely.Young adults may,as Ms.Harris argues,be keen to appear like their peers.But even in those early years,parents have the power to open doors:they may choose the peers with whom their young associate,and pick that influential neighborhood.Moreover,most people suspect that they come to resemble their parents more in middle age.So the balance of influences is probably complicated.Even if it turns out that the genes they pass on and the friends their children play with matter as much as affection,discipline and good example,parents are not completely off the hook.
32.According to Ms.Harris,B.
A.parents are to blame for any bad behavior of their children
B.children's personality is largely shaped by their friends and neighbors
C.nature rather than nurture has a significant effect on children's personality development
D.parents will affect greatly the children's life in the long run
33.The developmental psychologists thinkC.
A.children are more influenced by their peers
B.identical twins raised in the same home are different in personality
C.twins raised in two separate families are different in personality
D.upbringing has a less significant effect on children's personality development
34.According to Paragraph 3,we know thatC.
A.it is easier for children to gain a language at home
B.it is harder to follow the effects of parental upbringing
C.immigrant children avoid speaking the same way as their parents at school
D.it is proved that peers have a greater effect on children's qualities
35.What does the author mean by saying parents are not completely off the look at the end of the passage?D
A.Parents should control the situation.
B.Parents should give their way to children.
C.Parents should spend more time on children.
D.Parents should take on their responsibility.
16.Andy never wanted to go to bed on time.His parents had explained to him how important it was to go to bed early and get a good rest.But Andy paid no attention to them,and they didn't know what to do until one weekend when they were visiting Andy's grandparents.
Grandpa Peter heard all about it and said,"This sounds like a job for Tubby."So Andy's parents loaded the cat onto the car and returned home.
That night,at bedtime,the same problem happened.Andy didn't want to go to bed,and even though his parents waited a while to see if Tubby would solve the problem,nothing happened.
Hours later,Andy finally decided to go to bed.But what a surprise when he entered his bedroom!Tubby was in his bed,totally sprawling out,pot-belly in the air,and snoring like an express train.
Andy tried to move the cat,but there was no way of moving him an inch.That night he hardly slept,lying on one tiny corner of his bed.
The next day the same thing happened,even though Andy was much more tired from not having slept well.When the third day arrived,he had understood that if he wanted to sleep in his bed,he would have to get into it before Tubby did.That night,when his parents only started to mention the topic of bedtime,Andy rushed upstairs and dived into bed.His parents could not believe it.They knew nothing about Tubby in the bed,nor did they understand why Andy went to bed on time without complaint.They were so happy about this that they stayed up quite late,celebrating.

3.Friend is better than fortune.Friend is worse than poison in some cases.The two sentences above are opposite and seem to be unreasonable but they can be explained as follows:the first refers to all good friends who drive us towards good while the second all bad ones who lead us to wrong ways.
My ideal(理想的) friend is of course a good friend whose goodness is shown below-he has no bad likings,such as smoking and drinking.He lives in frugality(节俭).He studies hard so as not to waste his golden time.At home he honors his parents and loves his brothers; at school he respects his teachers and shares feelings of his classmates.He treats those truly who are true to him.In a word,he has all the good characters better than mine.I can follow him as a model.With his help I am free from all difficulties.
Indeed,if I have such a person as my friend,I shall never fear difficulty and I shall never know the existence of the word"failure".

13.Popeye the Sailor first became a popular cartoon in the 1930s.The sailor in that cartoon ate lots of spinach to make him strong.People watched him,and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach.Popeye helped sell 33percent more spinach than before!Spinach became a necessary part of many people's diets.Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.
Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong,but this is not true.Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.
People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake.In the 1890s,a group of people studied what was inside vegetables.This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did.The group wrote the number wrong,and everyone accepted it.
Today,we know that the little iron in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is.However,spinach does have something else which the body needs-folic acid.
It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong.Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.
59.A good title for this reading passage isB.
A.Popeye the Sailor
B.The Truth About Spinach
C.A Mistake with Numbers
D.Folic Acid Makes You Strong
60.Why did many people eat spinach after they saw Popeye the Sailor?A
A.They thought spinach made them strong.
B.They thought Popeye was funny.
C.Spinach had a lot of iron.
D.People liked folic acid.
61.A research group told people that spinachD.
A.made Popeye strong
B.was a green vegetable
C.had less iron than other green vegetables
D.had more iron than other green vegetables
62.The reading passage says that perhaps Popeye got his strength fromB.
A.ironB.folic acidC.spinachD.exercise.
20.The following are the results of the tests done by"Family and Home Magazine"on some Pocket Tape-Recorders on the market now.
Pearlcorder S702 64
This simple model at the bottom of the Olympus range scored the most points for its excellent quality of recording.Background noise hardly affects the sound and recording from a pocket is perfectly possible,but it doesn't turn off automatically.
Tape length:30minutes per side.Weight:240g.
Sony M9  49.95
Small and very good looking,Sony's latest offering scored most for its appearance.Sounds clear,but there is slight machine noise.The big control buttons are a great improvement on some of the complicated little controls on other tape-recorders.It doesn't switch off automatically,but a red light shows if the machine is still running.
Tape length:60minutes per side.Weight:195g.
Sony M400 115
Lots of little control buttons that make a noise are difficult to use.Recording is good but machine noise loses points.Tape counter and automatic switch-off when tape has finished recording or rewinding are useful.
Tape length:60 minutes per side.Weight:230g.
Imperial OEM MC7 29.95
Cheap and simple compared with the rest,but recording is good as long as there is no background noise.Use only its own-make of cassette.No light to show it is on; no fast-forward button and the record button makes a loud noise.
Tape length:30 minutes per side.Weight:285g.
Philips 585 80
Handsome and simple to use,but recording is very poor at more than the recommended distance of 5 cm-designed for dictation.No recording light.
Tape length:15 minutes per side.Weight:220g.

60.The machine that produces the best recording with the least unwanted noise isA.
A.Pearlcorder S 702    B.Sony M9     C.Sony M400   D.Imperial OEM MC7
61.If you want a machine which turns off automatically and weighs very little you should chooseC
A.Pearlcorder S 702     B.Sony M9   C.Sony M400     D.Philips 585
62.Which of the following allows you to record longest but costs you least?D
A.Philips 585     B.Imperial OEM MC7   C.Sony M400     D.Sony M9
63.What disadvantage does only the Imperial OEM MC7 have?B
A.No light shows when it is on.B.It requires a special cassette.
C.It picks up background noise.D.The record button makes a noise.
