11.When we were children,we were taught the simplest lessons to be able to build good relationships with others.(36)F.However,the question is:What makes a good relationship?
Be willing to share
Once you are in a good relationship,you are not just thinking about yourself.You learn to share what you have.(37)DYou should also share your thoughts,your ideas,your dreams and even your frustrations(沮丧).
Learn to care
People in a good relationship are kind to each other.They make efforts to show how they value each others'space.They both take the time to know what matters to the other and also give lime to try out each others'interests  (38)G.
Learn to play fair
(39)CEach one is allowed to move freely as an individual However,each action is done with consideration of the other one's feelings.No one is above the other.
(40)AA healthy union is bound by cooperation.The people involved work as a team to achieve one goal.Each one helps and supports the other to succeed in their individual endeavors.They appreciate each other and they grow together and as individuals as well.

regularly,developing your sense of willpower is an important part of changing any
behavior.(36)G.But there re ways to increase your willpower.
▲Don't try to change your economic situation,win a promotion and lose weight all on the sam morning.Establish one clear,specific goal and make a realistic plan to achieve it.

to kick a coffee habit,start by replacing your morning cup of coffee with a glass of water,
instead of promising never to drink coffee again.Congratulate yourself on the small achieve-ments that will pave the way toward a larger one.These successes help your willpower
grow.
▲(39)D.Ask friends,family or colleagues for assistance and tell them exactly how they
can help.If your credit card bills have increased sharply,for instance,let friends know
that you are cutting back on expenses.Suggest having a common dinner instead of meeting at an expensive restaurant.Find a support group or organization related to your goal and
attend their meetings.You can get valuable advice,understanding and information.
▲If possible,change your environment to encourage positive behavior.Want to get in

20.Once upon a time two brothers who lived on neighboring farms fell into conflict(对抗).It was the first serious one in 40years of farming side by side,sharing machinery,and trading labor and goods as needed.Then the long cooperation fell apart.It began with a small misunderstanding and it grew into a majr difference,and finally it exploded into an exchange of bitter words followed by weeks of silence.
One morning there was a knock on John'door.He opened it to find a man with a carpenter's toolbox."I'm looking for a few days'work,"he said."Could I help you?""Yes,"said the older brother."I do have a job for you.Look across the creek(河沟) at that farm.That's my neighbor,in fact,it's my younger brother.Last week there was a meadow(草地) between us and he took his bulldozer(推土机) to the levee(堤) and now there is a creek between us.Well,he may have done this to spite me,but I'll go him one better.I want you to build me a fence-an 8-foot fence-so I won't need to see his place anymore.Cool him down,anyhow."The carpenter said,"I think I understand the situation.I'll be able to do a job that pleases you."
The older brother had to go to town for supplies,so he helped the carpenter get the materials ready and then he was off for the day.The carpenter worked hard all that day measuring,sawing,nailing.About sunset when the farmer returned,the carpenter had just finished his job.The farmer's eyes opened wide,his jaw dropped.There was no fence there at all.It was a bridge-a bridge stretching from one side of the creek to the other!A fine piece of work-and his younger brother was coming across,his hand outstretched.
The brothers stood at each end of the bridge,and then they met in the middle,taking each other's hand.They turned to see the carpenter lift his toolbox on his shoulder."No,wait!Stay a few days.I've a lot of other projects for you,"said the older brother."I'd love to stay on,"the carpenter said,"but,I have so many more bridges to build."
32.What was life like for the two brothers before the conflict?B
A.They lived a poor,miserable life.
B.They were friendly neighbors,helping each other.
C.They never spoke to each other.
D.They lived together as one family.
33.Which of the following best describes the carpenter?D

B.He was hardworking but unskilled.
C.He was clever,hardworking,but cold hearted.

1.A current topic of debate is the amount of support and services we are willing to provide for disabled people.Many people believe that society has become more caring over the old.However,if we look back in time,this may not prove to be true.A good example can be found by looking at some remains(遗骸) of a prehistoric culture.
Several skeletons(骨架) were found in the Shanidar Cave in Iraq.It was the home of a tribe (部落) of Neanderthals who existed more than 40 000 years ago.One of these skeletons was a man about 40years old,an old age for that period.He is thought to have been killed by a falling stone.Careful study of the bones has shown that the man's right arm had never fully developed and had been cut off below the elbow(肘).The condition of the teeth was also unlike that of other Neanderthal men's.They showed signs of excessive(过多)use,as if they had been used to make up for the lack of a right arm.
How could someone so disabled from his earliest years have survived to become an adult,and even live on to old age?Societies in such early times faced severe conditions.People who could hunt for meat were few.A disabled person must have needed to keep close to the cave and been provided with meat.In fact,more care were shown towards this disabled man during that time,which suggests that the ancient people did better in caring their disabled people than we do in present-day societies.Such concern indicates a sense of unity(团结) and cooperation that made possible the future achievements of humanity.With this in mind,are we doing enough for the disabled?Rather than being too proud of the efforts that modern society has made,it would be wise to consider if we even equal the efforts of the old societies.

32.Considering the remains of this prehistoric culture makes usC.
A.believe that society has become more caring over time
B.look back at Iraq history with admiration
C.question if society has become more concerned about the disabled
D.want to give more support to primitive societies
33.The man could live until such an old age becauseC.
A.he could use his teeth very well
B.he didn't have to do any hunting
C.he was taken good care of
D.the environment was excellent
34.The example of this ancient tribe suggests thatD.
A.everyone could take part in most of the hunting activities
B.it was easy to find enough meat to feed everybody
C.life was not as difficult as modern man may think
D.they had greater care for human life than people commonly think
35.The author believes that true civilization is achievedC.
A.by looking to the future achievements of humanity
B.by modern people taking pride in their accomplishments
C.by supporting and taking care of all its members
D.only when we show proper concern for people living in the ancient time.
