WELCOME UNIT Unit 4 Friends forever Period 2　Understanding ideas 课时作业（二） 小精读 目录 CONTENTS 1 2 课时作业（二） Ⅰ　阅读 I live in New York city and my neighbours are people I don't know. My city, neighborhood and block are filled with people who don't know me, don't care to know me, and don't talk to me. I find that it's pretty hard to love people you don't even know.
