We’ve all experienced peer pressure (同伴压力). It happens to everybody. However, people have different reactions. Confident people refuse to do things they don’t want to do, but shy and anxious people often give in. It may be because they want to be liked. It may be because they worry that their friends will make fun of them, or perhaps they’re just curious about trying something new. 【1】

It’s hard being the only one who says no and the question is: how do you do it? 【2】 If you think that missing maths, or smoking, or going somewhere you know your parents wouldn’t like is a bad idea then the answer is simple: don’t do it. It’s your decision, nobody else’s. You don’t need to be aggressive. You don’t need to shout and scream, but you must be confident and you must be firm. You need to say, “No thanks. I don’t want to do that.”

Being on your own against everybody else is very hard, so it can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who will say no too. 【3】 You want friends who will support you when you’re in trouble. You don’t want people who will always agree with the majority. Remember, the most popular people aren’t always the most trustworthy.

【4】 — You can learn a lot from people your own age. They can teach you great football skills or the best way to do your maths homework. They can recommend music and advise you on fashion. And don’t forget you can tell them things too, and that always feels great. So, find friends who have similar interests. And remember, friendship isn’t about feeling depressed and guilty. 【5】

A. Choose your friends carefully.

B. Firstly, you must decide what you believe in.

C. It’s about sharing experiences and having fun.

D. Of course, peer pressure isn’t completely bad.

E. It may be because they were all born to be stubborn.

F. Depression and guilt will surely give you peer pressure.

G. Whatever the reason, some people end up doing things they really don’t want to.

Getting rid of the bad habit of procrastination(拖延症)is now my goal in life. My first step was to set small targets what can be reached realistically.

Additionally, I will make a list of my important task including their due dates but follow my schedule strictly. I will avoid find excuses for putting them off.

If you’re going to shell out on a vacation, then you might as well do it right. With that in mind, we’ve asked a few experts for tips on when to visit some of the most expensive places across the globe. Here’s what they had to say.

Botswana

Hotels in Botswana are second only to Dubai in terms of average cost per person, per night, at around $257. To make the most of your time there, consider an autumn visit, suggests Sarah Faith of Responsible Travel. “The heat peaks in October—this is the best time to go and see wild animals as they gather around in the Okavango Delta”, says Faith. While wildlife viewing is incredible in Botswana, there’s much to enjoy away from the wilderness, too.”

New York City

New York is the second-most expensive holiday destination overall and the most expensive place to dine out, with an average meal for two costing around $67. Garrett, the CEO of Discover New York, suggests, “October and June have gorgeous weather, so outdoor activities are a good choice, with sailing, in-depth neighborhood walks and biking.” For great value, she advises traveling in January and February, when the city offers tons of indoor activities, from art galleries and Broadway shows to indoor sports events and thousands of dining options.

Sydney

With its incredible surfing beaches, dining scene and friendly locals, Sydney is always a favorite of travelers. It’s also expensive. Generally, the shoulder seasons (fall and spring in the U.S.) have the most comfortable weather and fewer crowds than the December-to-February high season. But some months have particular appeal, according to Stuart Rigg, Australian travel specialist for Southern Crossings. April, for example, falls into the low season, which means you’ll find hotel deals along with weather that’s typically “very pleasant,” Rigg says. “Sydney also has some great events during this low season period,” he adds.

London

Petulia Melideo, who runs Context’s London walking tours, advises booking well in advance for lower hotel rates, and suggests a wintry visit. “November is a great time for London. The weather is still tolerable—and if it gets too chilly, there are plenty of cozy pubs to pop into,” she says. Other good times to visit include June, which means fewer tourists.

【1】According to the passage, October is the best time to travel to________.

A. New York and Botswana B. London and Sydney

C. New York and London D. Sydney and Botswana

【2】Visitors to Sydney __________.

A. may find cheap hotels in the shoulder seasons

B. can enjoy wonderful beaches and dining scene

C. will experience the most comfortable weather in December

D. should avoid the low season because of the unpleasant weather

【3】Which is the desirable month if you’d like to visit London without too many crowds?

A. April. B. June.

C. November. D. December.

In Unit One, we have learnt about what kind of friends we should make from our friend Anne 【1】 was killed by the German Nazis during World War Ⅱ. It was the first time in her life that she 【2】(keep)diaries in the hiding place. So she had great difficulty 【3】 (set) down what she and her family had gone through. Though she grew so crazy about everything to do with nature, it was no pleasure looking through the dusty windows any longer.

In Unit Two, we have known that there is more than one kind of English in the world and in some important ways they are very different 【4】 one another. Believe it or not, there is no such thing as standard English. However, today the number of people learning English in China 【5】 (increase)rapidly, although they find 【6】 hard to learn English well. As high school students, we should make full use of our time 【7】 (have) a good command of English in order to pass the College Entrance Examinations in three years.

In Unit Three, our friends Wang Kun and Wang Wei made up their 【8】 (mind) to take a great bike trip along the Mekong River. They both bought 【9】 expensive mountain bike. Finally they got the chance after graduating from college. Soon they got their cousins 【10】 (interest) in cycling too. After making preparations, they together started their journey and realized their dream to take a great bike trip.

Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents(洲)．

In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen. It is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone．It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own．

Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year．He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document（记录） his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old．

Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”, which “makes you a more confident person that was ready to deal with anything”. He said: “The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”

The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said: “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.

【1】Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?

A. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.

B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.

C. It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.

D. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.

【2】What can we infer about Chris Richardson?

A. He started traveling at an early age．

B. He was once shot in the arm.

C. His website inspires others a lot.

D. He used to work as a salesman.

【3】What is the best title of the passage?

A. Travel Abroad B. Travel Alone

C. Travel Light D. Travel Wide and Far

Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.

There is another difficult point for us Chinese to understand. 【3】. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous (慷慨)with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. 【4】. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly cannot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. 【5】. We will find ourselves treated hospitably(好客).

For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!

A.Americans don’t show their politeness if it requires a great deal of time.

B.Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
