61.______

According to the dictionary a friendship is a cooperative (合作的) and supportive relationship between two or more people.There are many different types of friendships that we will meet in our lives.There are best friends,acquaintances (熟人) and people we just consider friends.

62.______

There are many factors in having a friendship,just like in a marriage.Without these factors,the relationship will not work.Friends are mostly connected because they share common interests.They want what is best for the other,show honesty,offer advice,support and listen to the other person.When we share a friendship with someone,we are sharing ourselves,too.We are now opening a part of ourselves that we may only open to our best or closest friends.

63.______

The saying we can choose our friends but we can’t choose our family comes to mind quite often.When meeting a person whom we enjoy talking to,believing in and sharing our thoughts,we are deeply united in a way that we may never be with our family.To have a friend we must truly be a friend.What does this mean? Friendships that are selfish (自私的) are not going to last.We can be selfish sometimes with our family,but we should not be the same with our friends.In order to be true friends we must be able to think about someone other than ourselves.

64.______

Our childhood friends share something with us that no one else in our lives will ever share.They share our childhood in a way that no new friendship ever could.This is not to say friends we meet when we are older are not still great friends,but those childhood friends are there and share memories of growing up and going through all the things we faced in our younger years.

65.______

Trust is one of the biggest things that we are faced with throughout life.True friendships need trust on both sides.We must be able to fully trust our friends and they must feel the same way about us.They will be hearing our deepest feelings,listening to stories and sharing feelings that we can’t tell anyone else.If we do not feel safe about what we are telling to them,we will never be secure.


Writing a long book seemed to be too much for me.So,for a long time,I just wrote short articles.One day,inspiration (灵感) for an article hit me and,as I started writing,paragraphs began flowing out fast.It turned out to be too long to be an article.I thought it would not hurt to try self­publishing a booklet (小册子).The first printing of this 32­page black and white booklet sold out within a week.Here is something that I have learned through my experience.

1.Start small.

Don’t try to have a 400­page work as your first publication (出版物).I suggest you publish a booklet under 50 pages to launch your career as an author.

2.Ask for advice.

If you know some people who have published something,ask them for advice and help.You will gain useful information from them and save yourself many problems.

3.____________________

When you put your heart into something only to hear “We’re not interested”,you may get hurt.But you must remind yourself that this is quite common.Every “yes” you receive comes after at least five “noes”,especially at the beginning.You need to revise (校订) your book many times to reduce the chances of being turned down.

4.The more you market,the more you sell.

You can publish an excellent book.But if no people know about it,you cannot expect many buyers.Send out an e­mail to friends,family and business partners,telling them your book’s publication date.Ask them to help sell your book.Do not be afraid to try novel ideas.

58.We learn that before self­publishing his first booklet,the writer most probably________.

A.hoped that he would write some famous long stories

60.What’s the best title for Point 3?

B.You will get hurt by what you wrote at first.

C.Prepare for a “yes” rather than a “no”.

In 2016,athletes from around the world will compete (竞争) for gold medals in the Summer Olympics.Even though the games are seven years away,Brazil’s residents (居民) already feel like winners.

The nation was recently named to host this important sporting event.It will be the first Olympics held in South America.

The games will take place in Rio de Janeiro.The city beat out three other sites,Madrid,Tokyo and Chicago,to host the event.When the International Olympic Committee chose Rio de Janeiro,cheering people flooded the city’s streets.“This is huge for Rio and for the whole country,” says resident Sueli Ferreira.

The Olympics are expected to attract tens of thousands of people.Brazilian officials have already started to prepare for the crowds.“We know what we need to do,” explains Brazil’s president,Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.“The words from now on are work,work and work.”

Officials want to fix up local sports centers before Rio de Janeiro steps into the spotlight.They also want to reduce the amount of crime (犯罪).

They hope hosting the games will improve life in Brazil.About 30 percent of people there live in poverty,or poor conditions.Tourism during the Olympics is expected to create more than 2 million jobs.
