A.Unimportant. B.Harmful. C.Meaningful. D.Interesting 18.What can we learn from the passage? A.We shouldn't spend too much time gossiping. B.Gossiping to move up in society should be accepted. C.Gossip helps people build relationships today as well as in the past. D.In the past,people who liked gossiping were considered untrustworthy. 19.The following sentence would best be placed at the end of That's not to say we should pay attention to everything we hear,but it gives us direction. A.Paragraph 1 B.Paragraph 2 C.Paragraph 3 D.Paragraph 4 20.What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage? A.To discuss the influence of gossiping. B.To explain the reason why gossip is common C.To remind people of the problems of gossiping. D.To guide people to be careful when gossiping. 二、完形填空（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） Every year,my swim team runs the Snack Shack at the pool to make money for swim meets.But last month,Coach Abby told us the Snack Shack would be closed for repairs.No Snack Shack means no money for swim meets！ "I've been21.If we can't run the Snack Shack,maybe we can think of other ways to raise money,”Noah said. “My school always has a Fall Festival,,”said Manny,“with lots of__22_and prizes.” "A festival would be so fun!"I said."We could have a Fun in the Sun Lemonade Stand."
