1.Be Your Own Best Friend
Why would you want to become your own best friend?There are a number of benefits of creating your own support system from within rather than relying on your partner,friends or family to be there for you when you're suffering.We all have it in us to give ourselves what we need,without seeking it from outside.(36)GHere's how to become your own best friend and help yourself.
1.Be nice to yourself
The first step in becoming a friend to yourself is to treat yourself like you would treat a friend.(37)EStart by accepting your good qualities,talents and abilities and begin to appreciate yourself.
2.Imagine how you would support a friend in the same situation
Think about a loved one,a friend,a family member,or someone dear to you and imagine that they are in the same situation you are facing.(38)FThen consider how to best offer help and advice to them.Allow yourself to feel supported,and give yourself what you need.
Write down the words that you would say to your greatest friend and then say them gently to yourself.
3.(39)A
Following the theme of considering how you would help a dear friend,you need to start taking your own advice and putting your own needs first.Do you need a day off from work?(40)CWhatever it is that you need,allow yourself to put it at the top of the list rather than the bottom(底部).
Use these methods to become your own best friend and start being there for yourself!
 
A.Respect your needs.
B.Believe in yourself.
C.A long hot bath?
D.Help them first and then they will help you.
E.That means that you need to stop being doubtful of yourself.
F.Think about how they're struggling,suffering with this problem.
G.Isn't it far better to know how to support yourself in times of need?
20.It's not easy being a teenager-nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager.You can make your child feel angry,hurt,or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself.It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow up while gently letting him know that you will still be there for him when he needs you.
Expect a lot from your child,just not everything.Except for health and safety problems,such as drug use or careless driving,parents should consider everything else open to negotiate(商量) with their child.If your child is unwilling to discuss something,don't insist he tell you what's on his mind.The more you insist,the more likely that he'll clam up.Instead,let him attempt to solve things by himself.At the same time,remind him that you're always there for him if he should seek advice or help.Show respect for your teenager's privacy(隐私).Never read his mail or listen in on personal conversations.
However,teaching your teenager something necessary is essential when he or she is growing up.For example,the family phone is for the whole family.If your child talks on the family's telephone for too long,tell him he can talk for 15 minutes,and then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time.This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls,but teaches your teenager moderation(节制).Or if you are open to the idea,allow your teenager to have his own phone as long as he pays for  it with his own pocket money or by doing a part-time job.

32.The main purpose of the text is to tell parentsD.
A.how to control a teenager          
B.how to respect a teenager
C.how to understand a teenager      
D.how to help a teenager grow up
33.What does the phrase"clam up"in Paragraph 2probably mean?C
A.become excited   
B.show respect   
C.refuse to talk   
D.seek for help
34.The last paragraph is about how to teach a teenagerB.
A.to pay for his own telephone
B.to use the phone in a proper way
C.to share the phone with friends
D.to answer the phone quickly
35.What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the text?B
A.Driving carelessly or taking drugs can be discussed.
B.Give him advice only when necessary.
C.Let him have his own telephone.
D.Try to control every aspect of their children's lives.

The day that I met my best friend(41)forthe first time,I was full of anxiety.I was trying to do some revision for (42)animportant oral exam in the local library and people kept (43)disturbing (disturb)me.I was getting more and more annoyed and of course,the more upset I got,the(44)lessI was able to concentrate.The last straw was when I(45)heard(hear)someone singing behind me.The singing was so loud that I could even recognize the song.I turned around and glared at the person (46)who/thatwas singing.It was a tall girl about the same age (47)asme and she had a big smile on her face.She was standing with a book in her hands near the"English Literature"section.She looked like a literary type and seemed very interested in what she was reading.
The fact that she looked like a sensitive,friendly girl didn't matter.If anything,it made me even angrier."How could she be so selfish?"I thought (48)angrily(angry).In fact,I'm (49)surprised (surprise)that there wasn't steam coming out of my ears.
I picked up my books,glared at her and whispered coldly,"Thanks to your noise,I've been unable(50)to study (study).You're so selfish!"
18.In a national spelling contest in America,an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word.But with her (21)Dvoice the judges were not sure whether she spelled the word with the letter A or E.They talked it over and (22)Adecided to simply ask her what she had said.By now,the girl knew she had (23)Cthe word.But instead of lying,she told the truth that she had said the (24)B letter-so she lost the contest.
As the girl walked off the (25)A,the entire audience stood to their feet clapping to applaud her (26)B.Later,dozens of newspaper reporters wrote about this 11-year-old girl's honesty,even when it (27)Bher the contest.But the fact is that she (28)Cthe biggest contest that day:the contest of her (29)D.
Probably the biggest test of our character and honesty is that we would do if we knew we would never get (30)C.This young girl could easily have (31)Band nobody would have known it but herself.But that's just it:She would know she did wrong.It's been said,"If you (32)C,you make yourself cheap."This young girl was strong and smart enough to prize her own (33)A and character more than the prize from a spelling (34)A.Her respect for herself was more important than any(35)Cothers might give her for winning a contest.She knew she would have to live with herself and the (36)Dshe made in that moment will have long-lasting influence.
It's so true that the choices you make today (37)Awhat you are tomorrow.Our children will (38)Cour behavior much more than our advice.So if we want them to (39)Ato be honest,we must show them the way by being honest ourselves.Remember,our kids are (40)Dwhat we do and how we live even when we don't think they see or know.

Are you truly happy?Do you ever know what it means to be happy and what it takes to achieve happiness?(66)D.The following are a few tips that I follow to create happiness in my life.
※Make a plan for attaining goals that you believe will make you happy.Your moods will very likely increase if you are going after something you value.
※Surround yourself with happy people.It is easy to begin to think negatively when you are surrounded by people who think that way. (67)B.
※When something goes wrong,try to figure out a solution instead of being absorbed in self pity. Truly happy people don't allow setbacks to affect their mood because they know that with a little thought they can turn the circumstances back to their favor.
※(68)E.These few minutes will give you the opportunity to focus on the positive things in your life and will lead you to continuous happiness.
※(69)G.Whether you treat yourself to lunch,take a long,relaxing bath or simply spend a few extra minutes on your appearance,you will be subconsciously (下意识地) putting yourself in a better mood.
※Finding the humor in situations can also lead to happiness.Find a way to make light of a situation that would otherwise make you happy.
※Keeping healthy is another way to achieve happiness.(70)C.

A.What makes one person happy may be very different from what makes someone else happy.
B.On the contrary,if you are around people who are happy,their emotional state will be infectious.
C.Being overweight or not eating nutritious foods can have a negative effect on your mood.
D.These are important questions for anyone who is seeking happiness to ask themselves.
E.Spend a few minutes each day thinking about the things that make you happy.
F.There are some tips in life that lead to happiness.
G.It's also important to take some time each day to do something nice for yourself.
