Wonder 31 you can do? Here is some useful advice（建议）. You must be able to learn something from it. 32 and cry together. Laughing with a friend is the best, but sometimes crying brings you closer together. Don’t be 33 to be yourself. Share your true feeling with your friends. Then you will be able to know each other 34 better. Be a nice gift-giver. Gift-giving isn’t just for birthdays or holidays. It can be a fun way of making your friends 35 special! But you don’t need to buy 36 gifts. Making things by yourself shows your care. That’s because you put time and ideas into your 37 When your friend gets your gift, he or she must be very happy and excited. So, this is a right way for you to have a try. Stand up for him or her. If someone laughs at your friend, don’t just stand there quietly. Do 38 about it! You can try to find a smart way to solve the problem and make others look at your friend differently. Sometimes it’s necessary （有必要的） 39 you to make him or her feel better. It may not be 40 , but it’s what a good friend should do! A real friend will be with you all the time.

My English is very poor.” The foreigner was quite surprised at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the girl had not heard him clearly, he said. “Yes, indeed（其实）, you speak very well.” But the girl still kept saying “No.” In the end, the American boy could not understand and didn’t know what to say. What’s wrong with the girl’s answer? She didn’t accept（接受） a compliment （恭维）in the same way as the American people do. She should answer, “Thank you” instead of “No”. She really understood what the American boy had said, but she thought she should be modest（谦虚的）. In the west, people will feel proud（自豪的） and confident（有信心的） when they are praised（被赞扬）. So if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say, “Thank you.” In our country, we think being modestis a virtue（美德） and being proud is a bad thing, but in my opinion, being confident does not mean being proud, so sometimes you should be confident instead of being modest.  If you are modest and say “No, I’m afraid I can’t do it well” when working in a western country, the others may think that you really cannot do it. If you often say “No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by others. When asking for a job, if one says something like “Yes, I can certainly do it” instead of “let me have a try”, he or she will expect （期待）to get it. So in the west, you should be brave to show your self-confidence. 41．Why did the Chinese girl say “No” when she was praised? A．Because she thought she should be proud. B．Because she thought she should be confident. C．Because she thought she should be modest. D．Because she thought she is a student. 42．If you say “I can do it well” when asking for a job in the west, the others may think that _____. A．you can do it well​ B．you can’t do it well C．you like doing it​ D．you don’t like doing it 43．What does the underlined part “looked down upon” mean in Chinese? A．瞧不起​ B．瞧得起​ C．表扬​ D．批评 44．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．The girl didn’t hear the boy clearly. B．The American boy understood the girl’s answer. C．In China, people think being modest is a virtue. D．The writer thinks being modest means being proud. 45．What does the writer want to tell us? A．We should be proud and impolite in the west. B．We should be modest and confident in the west. C．We should be modest and brave in the west. D．We should be brave and confident in the west. B Thursday, April 24th We got to the clean, lovely city of Yangzhou early in the morning. This is our first trip to China. All the different smells attract our attention to the local food.

If you ask people from the UK, they will tell you it's "autumn". But if you go to the USA, you will find that people use both"autumn"and "fall". Why does this season have two names in English? According to Dictionary. com, both words have been around for a long time, but neither (两者都不) of them was the first to describe this season. During this season, crops would become ripe (成熟的) and farmers would have a big harvest. So in Old English, this season was simply called "harvest".  Then, in the 1600s, more people left their farms and moved to cities. With fewer people farming, the word"harvest"became less useful. English speakers needed a different name for the season. They saw leaves fell from trees during the season, so people started calling it"the fall of the leaf', or"fall" for short.  In the late 1600s, autumn, from the French word "autompne" and the Latin "autumnus", came to England. It gradually replaced (替代) "fall" as the word for this season.  At the same time, British people were making their first trips to North America. They brought both the words "fall" and "autumn" with them. That's why today's Americans have two names for one season while the word "fall"is out of fashion in Britain.  答案不超过6个词。 81.
