My Best Friend is a book for young children. It's mainly about a little girl named Lily. It's summer, and Lily spends lots of time at the community pool, where she sees Tamika. Lily decides that Tamika will be her new best friend. But Tamika already has a best friend and no matter how hard Lily tries, she can't seem to impress Tamika. The story tells about the difficulties of finding a friend.
第一部分
My daughter Lisa and I read the book together. She said that she would give the book three stars. But I would give it just two stars. I especially did not like the topic. I think as a parent we should explain to our children that when someone is being mean and ignoring you, pushing harder will not make them like you more. We should also tell them that it's OK to walk away from someone who is not showing true interest in being your friend. I wouldn't recommend the book. But through writing the book, Mary Ann Rodman did open the doors for me to teach Lisa that some people are mean and that it's OK to walk away from them and make new friends.
第一部分

A.Teach her to swim.
B.Work harder.
C.Be her best friend.
19.Who would give the book two stars?

A few months ago I took a trip to Osaka. Unfortunately, I didn't go there on holiday. I went there on a business trip. By the time I got to the station, I was very tired and hungry. At the station there was a shop selling lunch boxes. They had cheap lunch boxes and expensive lunch boxes. I bought a cheap lunch box. After that, I made my way to my platform and found my train.
I got on the train and found my seat. Now I was feeling really hungry and tired. I wondered whether I should eat my lunch box or take a nap. I decided I would enjoy my lunch box more after a nap. I put the lunch box in the hat rack above my head.
第二部分

As I was sitting down, a young businessman approached me. Like me, he looked tired, and he also had a lunch box. He asked if the seat next to me was free and I said it was. In a few minutes, I was fast asleep. When I awoke, the businessman was no longer there. I looked at the seat next me and I saw a lunch box. I was so hungry that I opened it up and started to eat. I was very surprised to see how nice it tasted. After a minute or two of eating, the businessman returned. He had an astonished look on his face. He asked me why I was eating his lunch box. Then it hit me that I had put my lunch box above my head.

We all want to be successful in our work. But what happens if our success comes at the risk of losing important friendships? If your friends didn't receive what they were hoping for, your success could make them feel uncomfortable. But does that mean we shouldn't enjoy our achievements in case we displease someone or that we should feel sorry for being successful while others aren't?
第二部分
43
Those of us who value friendships might feel embarrassed for achieving more than our friends. But we deserve (应得) our success, and nothing can take it away. Jealousy (嫉妒) is only natural, but it's often unreasonable, too. Your success is probably not connected with your friends' progress, so you shouldn't feel bad about achieving your goals. If your friends stay unfriendly, don't be afraid to keep yourself away from them. You are not responsible for their weaknesses.
Meanwhile, your friends may think highly of your recent success while hiding their real feelings. They could be jealous, angry or sad that they are not progressing at the same rate. So, be careful not to talk big. It's a thin line between pride and overconfidence, and by crossing the line, you may risk losing team support.
第二部分
44
Next time you want to boast about your endofyear win, or highclass new office, consider your listeners. Maybe your friends narrowly missed out on a promotion, or experienced pay cuts, which meant they didn't get what they were expecting. If your work is on a rising path, it doesn't mean that's the case for everyone.
Perhaps a step forward in your work means that you don't spend as much time with your friends as you used to. If you've changed a job or moved to a new office, take the time to stay in touch with old friends. Don't let that hard work go to waste by losing touch with them.

Have you ever been in midconversation with someone, when you look over and find them standing in the same position as you or holding the same facial expression? It may seem like they have consciously (有意识地) copied you, but it is much more likely that it is the chameleon (变色龙) effect at play.
The chameleon effect is the unconscious imitation (模仿) of another person's gestures or behaviour. Just as a chameleon attempts to match any environment's colours, people acquire the behaviour of others to bring them closer together and help make their interactions smooth.
第二部分
50
The chameleon effect was confirmed in an experiment by psychologists John Bargh and Tanya Chartrand in 1999. The first part of their experiment included 78 people, who each spoke with an experimenter. During the test, Bargh and Chartrand studied whether participants would copy the actions of someone they hadn't met before, like moving the foot and touching the face. The second part measured the impact that copying someone has on the person being imitated.
第二部分
51
In the first stage, participants increased their face touching by 20% and their foot movement by 50% while in conversation about a photograph with the experimenter. The individuals weren't aware of what they were being studied for, and the photograph was used to catch their attention to ensure unconscious acts. The second stage involved half of the participants being copied, and then rating the likeability of the experimenter. The results showed that those who were imitated scored the experimenter higher. It has shown that when someone copies our behaviour, we develop more positive feelings about them. These interactions could be a person unconsciously willing to be liked, and forming a moment of connection.
第二部分
52
The main reasons behind humans' imitation are positive. However, when people carry this chameleon effect to the extreme, they can lose their sense of self. Those who change their entire personalities in different groups often go undetected. But more common signs of the chameleon effect are easier to notice. Next time you are in a social gathering, take a look around and you might just see some chameleons for yourself.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项关于变色龙效应的研究,即人们通过习得他人的行为来拉近彼此之间的距离,使他们的互动更加顺畅。
第二部分
53
32.Why do people acquire others' behavior?
A.To match the environment's colour.
B.To attract others' attention.
C.To establish a connection with others.
D.To adapt to the surroundings.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Just as a chameleon ... make their interactions smooth.”可知,人们为了与他人建立联系,会习得他人的行为。故选C。
第二部分
33.How did the experimenter guarantee participants' unconscious behaviors?
A.By directing their attention to a photo.
B.By keeping an eye on their actions.
C.By telling them the purpose of the study.
D.By evaluating the impacts of imitation.
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“The individuals weren't ... to ensure unconscious acts.(这些人并不知道他们被研究的目的,照片被用来吸引他们的注意力,以确保他们无意识的行为。)”可知,实验者用一张照片吸引参与者的注意力来保证参与者的无意识行为。故选A。
第二部分
34.What conclusion can be drawn from the experiment?
A.People tend to like those who imitate their behavior.
B.Too much of the chameleon effect can be beneficial.
C.People imitating others are not easy to be detected.
D.The copied movements help people to feel relaxed.
解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“It has shown ... forming a moment of connection.(研究表明,当有人模仿我们的行为时,我们会对他们产生更积极的感觉。这些互动可能是一个人无意识地愿意被喜欢,并形成了一个连接的时刻。)”可推知,实验表明人们倾向于喜欢模仿自己行为的人。故选A。
第二部分
35.Which of the following shows the chameleon effect according to the passage?
A.Students adopt teachers' accents for fun after class.
B.People change their habits to please others on purpose.
C.A comedian copies a celebrity vividly on stage.
D.A husband and his wife share similar behaviours over time.
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知,变色龙效应是指无意识地模仿他人的手势或行为。就像变色龙试图与任何环境的颜色相匹配一样,人们通过习得他人的行为来拉近彼此之间的距离,帮助他们顺畅地互动。由此可推知,随着时间的推移,丈夫和妻子有相似的行为是变色龙效应。故选D。

The first day of school our primary Mrs Miller introduced herself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't already know. I stood up to __41__ around when a pretty girl came in to my sight. She said,“Hi, my name is Katie.”

Dear Mike,
I am sorry to learn that you are having trouble with your best friend. Here are some suggestions which I hope can be of help to you.
Considering your unsuccessful attempts to talk with him, I advise that you turn to his parents, teachers, and his other friends. Additionally, you can try sending him a text message, telling him how you feel and asking about the reason for his getting away from you. True friendship is based on good communication and I believe Tom should understand this. Meanwhile, it is of great necessity to include a sincere apology for doing something that might have hurt him unintentionally.
第四部分
Hopefully you will find the tips above practical. I sincerely wish that with active efforts you can smoothly remove your misunderstandings and restore your friendship.
Yours,
Li Hua

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
People often have a tough time dealing with their feelings of disappointment. That is when you should give them time and understanding and he or she just might come around before long.
I remember talking with my friend Avery about the coming school play Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, which we both applied for. Avery had a talent for acting and she was anxious for playing Alice while for me I didn't care what part I played as long as I would be in. However, when the character list was posted, we were surprised to find that I got the part of Alice and Avery was chosen to act the rabbit. I guessed it was because I hadn't been nervous at all during the audition (试演). But that situation really didn't occur to me.

Then I asked Avery, “Do you want to come over after school and we can practice our lines?” “You mean, practice your lines?” Avery replied, not even looking at me. “No, thanks. I'm pretty busy this week.” I continued to ask if it would be OK for next week but her answer was negative and full of anger.
That night at dinner, after my parents congratulated me on getting the lead role, they asked how I felt. “Well, I can't understand.” I said and told them about Avery's reaction and I believed that she pretty much threw away our friendship.
“Hmm,” said my dad. “Arizona, don't you think this might be an opportunity for you to be an extragood friend?” “Dad's right,” added my mom. “Sometimes when our friends do well, we feel envious (羡慕的) and don't know how to act. Try giving her a little time and understanding. She'll come around.”
第四部分
93
Over the next week, I did my best to give Avery some space. I practised my lines but I knew I needed some help since my voice was not expressive enough. Day by day, Avery's attitude seemed softened. As the rehearsal (彩排) day was near, I made a decision.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

One day after school in the rehearsal room, I approached Avery. “Hey, Avery,” I said. “I was wondering if you could help me with my lines. I know you're busy, but I really need your help.” Avery looked up at me and smiled. “Sure, I'd be happy to help.” We spent the next hour going over my lines and she gave me some great advice on how to make my performance more expressive. I was so grateful for her help and I could tell that she was happy to be able to help me.
Then came the big day. We both performed our parts perfectly and the audience was thrilled. After the show, Avery and I hugged each other and thanked each other for our help. I was so glad that I had given her time and understanding, and that she had come around. From then on, we were even better friends than before.
