They provided four steps (步骤) for getting out of loneliness. The first step is to accept (接受) others’ invitations (邀请) although you don’t want to go. “It’s not enough for people just to stay in touch with others online. That’s b 7 most people don’t show their true selves there,” said Doctor Cacioppo, one of this study’s scientists. Another step is to get an action plan. As “actions speak louder than w 8 ”, people need to be active to communicate with others. They also need to meet people with the s 9 interests.

My room was nice, but everything was n 1 to me-until I met Lily, the daughter of the homestay family. She was my age and she spoke s 2 so that I could understand her British way of speaking. One morning, Lily asked, “Want to walk to school together?” I said yes shyly. 3 the way, she showed me her favorite café and laughed when I didn’t know “chips” meant French fries! At school, she sat with me at lunch and i 4 me to her friends. I slowly had friends at school. After school, I taught her to write C 5 characters because she liked Chinese culture so much. On weekends, we rode bikes in a big park or watched movies at home. Lily helped me to p 6 speaking English by playing games. With her help, I s 7 feeling nervous in daily communication. Now, when Lily calls 8 “friend”, I feel like I’m part of her family. Living far from home was hard at f 9 , but Lily’s kindness made London feel like a second h 10 for me. I’m so happy that we have become close friends in this busy city! The last two months has been a roller coaster. I l 1 my job and my project, all of which I loved. Now, the sadness is still there, but meanwhile I feel huge e 2 over following a long-time dream of mine: writing a memoir (回忆录). In the margins (间隙) of time, while working full time, I worked slowly on the b 3 of a book: a name, an outline, and a title for the first chapter. I tried to f 4 some writing time. Sometimes I would write for a free half hour in the morning before everything s 5 . It’s true that I don’t have any income now and no one knows what will happen next. But it is a 6 a fact that I’m living my actual dream. Now I wake up with a feeling of thrill (兴奋) in my chest every day, and I think: I get to write today. Though all this happened s 7 , not up to my plan. I feel lucky that I have this life now. And yes, it’s a long road to publishing a book. Yes, I don’t know if I’ll ever make m 8 from this. As I write, I read Martha Beck’s book. In a section called “The Power of One-Degree Turns (转向)”, she writes. “Positive changes happen more quickly when we do it in s 9 steps, not in great leaps (跳跃). Every day, you make many tiny decisions about your time, every one of which is a chance to turn towards the life you really w 10 .” Looking back, I see that all my writing in the margins of time was my way of making steps to this dream. I can’t wait to continue working on this and, eventually, share it with the world. 二、U2单元话题热点预测 综合填空。 Friends are important in our life, because no one w 1 to be lonely. However, some people have difficulty in m 2 friends and they often feel lonely. What’s the reason (原因) behind that? Some scientists from Chicago University say, the reason is that this kind of people have brains (大脑) d 3 from common people. And they often feel unsafe w 4 they meet strangers. Does that mean they have no way to change? No, don’t w 5 . Scientists of this study have thought up ways to h 6 these people solve this problem. They provided four steps (步骤) for getting out of loneliness.

That’s b 7 most people don’t show their true selves there,” said Doctor Cacioppo, one of this study’s scientists. Another step is to get an action plan. As “actions speak louder than w 8 ”, people need to be active to communicate with others. They also need to meet people with the s 9 interests. Also, they should try to expect the best from each activity. Anyway, tomorrow is a 10 day. Who knows what good things are waiting for us?

It is important for students to h 3 one good friend or a group of friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time t 4 with them on the phone. This kind of communication (交流) is very important in children’s growing u 5 , because friends can discuss something. These things are difficult to say to their family m 6 .

Each year he took his corn to the market, and each time his corn was chosen as the b 2 and won the first prize (奖励). One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something surprising about how he grew it. The farmer would always o 3 his seed (种子) corn to his neighbors. “How can you share your good seed corn with your neighbors?” the reporter asked. “You know they are taking part in the competition with you each year.” “Well, you know, sir,” said the farmer. “The wind will pick up pollen (花粉) from the corn and will quickly m 4 it from field to field. If my neighbors grow b 5 corn, cross-pollination (异花传粉) will be not good for my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, I must h 6 my neighbors to grow good corn.” As a great man says, “We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give to others.” We can’t live w 7 food, clothes, or many other things. H 8 , a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get, but by how much we can give to others. Giving, not taking, will m 9 us different from other animals.
