As time flies and we get older,they walk right beside us.However,as we grow older,we can get less or no support(支持)， Our parents and other members of the family give us so much support and protection (that some of us learn to rely on others.We can get many things from others such as money,clothes,cars and so on,while many of us rely on other people's opinions and ideas. I don't think relying on others is a good way.Why?It's simple.If we rely on material possessions(物质财富)，then we are never really going to be happy because there is always going to be someone that will have more than us. To feel good,we must take a good look at ourselves,we should know our true egos ().I don't mean that we shouldn't welcome the support from others.Just do not let their ideas guide ours.We should have our own ideas about life and achieve our dreams with the ideas. 25.When we were young,we could get more support from A.our teachers B.our families C.warm-hearted people D.the government 26.The underlined phrase“rely on'”may mean“ ”"in Chinese.. A.依赖 B.支持 C.帮助 D回报 27.The third paragraph mainly tells us A.relying on others can make us happier B.it's good to rely on others C.to learn from others'ideas D.Relying on others isn't good for us Nowadays,many schools in China are teaching life skills as well as traditional school subjects.Some people say this prepares students better for life in the real world,while some say it is not necessary. In my opinion,schools should prepare us students for our future life.Life skills such as budget()planning and saving money can stop us from overspending.It is also a good idea to learn cooking.This skill is the most helpful to you when you live by yourself. On the other hand,some people think that there is no time for extra subjects at school and students should learn life skills only at home.As for me,I think we are learning many life skills while taking a traditional class.For example,we can learn teamwork by playing group games in a P.E.class,and doing our homework teaches us skills in time planning. So I think all schools should teach life skills.It doesn't need too much extra work,but it can help students well prepare for their college life and work after college. 28.What can students in many schools in China learn nowadays? A.Life skills only. B.Traditional culture. C.New school subjects. D.Traditional subjects and life skills 29.According to the writer, is the most useful to students when they live by themselves. A.studying hard B.learning cooking C.cleaning rooms D.exercising often 30.At school,students learn skills in time planning A.by saving money B.by learning teamwork C.by living alone D.by doing homework 31.In the passage the writer wants to tell us A.students should learn life skills at home B.life skiils are not important to students C.schools should teach students life skills D.life skills are not easy for students to learn 第四部分情景交际（⑤小题，共10分） A little girl walked to and from school every day.Though it was not fine and clouds 巴意冲尔衡越实羚学校八级英语 appeared in the sky that morning,the little girl went to school by herself as usual.32.
