A. a newspaper B. a storybook C. a diary D. a play B Believe it or not, there are friendships among animals. A dog plays with a cat, a monkey makes friends with a giraffe, and some dolphins even build a good relationship with lions. You may wonder if all the animals’ friendships are sincere. Well, the answer is yes. A new study shows that the friendships among water buffaloes (水牛) are truly sincere. A team of scientists from the City University of Hong Kong studied water buffaloes on Lantau Island. This island has a large area of grasslands and wetlands. There are about 120-150 water buffaloes living there. The scientists put cameras at different places of the island to closely watch how the water buffaloes acted. Later, the scientists found that the buffaloes only chose friends with similar characters and interests instead of their ages or sizes. They don’t care about the power of other buffaloes or depend on stronger friends to protect themselves. The study also shows there are several character types among the buffaloes. Some are careful and often watch out for the conditions around them, some are shy and try to stay away from others, while others are active and like to play around. The buffaloes with similar characters and interests often eat together, rest together, and invite each other to play and roll around on the grassland. The scientists say beautiful friendships among water buffaloes make their life longer, healthier and happier. As humans, we can learn from them and develop warm and close friendships. 6. How does the writer start the text? A. By telling a story. B. By asking a question. C. By giving some numbers. D. By listing some examples. 7. Which of the following questions does the second paragraph answer? A. What did the scientists find out? B. How did the scientists do the study? C. Why did the scientists do the study? D. How many scientists went to Lantau Island? 8. What are the most important for water buffaloes when they make friends? A. Their ages and power. B. Their ages and sizes. C. Their interests and characters. D. Their interests and ages. 9. What does the underlined word in paragraph four mean? A. ecosystem B. forest C. island D. environment 10. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. It’s easy for us to make friends with water buffaloes. B. Water buffaloes need friendships to protect themselves. C. People with different interests don’t like staying together. D. Good friendships make water buffaloes live better. C Do you compare yourself to other people? Perhaps your best friend receives something you really want, or you’re not allowed to go to a concert but your brother or sister is. Even though comparisons are common and can sometimes be helpful, focusing on your own progress is important for your happiness. “We often compare ourselves to others who are doing better or not as well as ourselves,” says Dr. Jack. “But I suggest comparing yourself to your past self and your future self.” This can make you feel proud of what you have achieved and excited about what you might do. Focusing on your own purposes is more important than always trying to come out on top. “Comparing yourself to those around you is natural and we often do it without realizing it.” It can help us to be clear about our achievements and to form friendships with new people who have similar interests. However, it’s important to remember that nobody is perfect in real life. It’s also important to take note of how the comparison is making you feel. “If you begin to feel quite low, focus on your own strengths,” says Jack. In other words, you can ask yourself questions like “What can I do well in?” which can help you trust yourself. Maybe here you are wondering “What if all my friends are better than me?” Dr. White says that jealousy (妒忌) is not bad but focusing on bettering your own work can help you feel just as successful. He also mentions that learning to celebrate your friends’ success can not only help to cheer your friends up but also help you feel good. It will encourage you to build each other up. 11. What does the writer tell us in Paragraph 1? A. We should compare with others. B. We should share things with brothers. C. We should enjoy concerts with sisters. D. We should focus on our own progress. 12. Why should you compare yourself to your past self? A. To care about others. B. To change your purposes. C. To increase your excitement. D. To be proud of your achievements. 13. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Comparing ourselves to others is always harmful and should be avoided completely. B. Dr. Jack suggests that comparing yourself to others is the most important thing. C. Jealousy is not bad and we can focus on our own work to feel successful. D. The only way to be happy is to do better than everyone else in everything. 14. What does Dr. White suggest? A. Trusting your friends. B. Cheering on tiny success. C. Celebrating others’ success. D. Forming a deep friendship. 15. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Plan Your Own Future B. Enjoy Your Own Happiness C. Run Your Own Race D. Follow Your Own Dream D You’ve probably heard that hard work is the key to success. From a young age, most of us are told that the harder we work, the more successful we’ll be. We are discouraged from being lazy and encouraged to work hard. But according to a famous writer, the opposite is true. Michael Lewis is the writer of “The Big Short”, “Moneyball” and “Flash boys”. He says that laziness is more helpful than most people usually think. He even believes that it is the key to his success in fact. Lewis explained how laziness had helped him succeed. And he argued that laziness shouldn’t be seen as a bad thing. He believed an idea —“If you allow yourself to be lazy, you’ll only put time and effort into the work that’s really important.” It’s a largely alien idea in today’s culture. But Lewis showed that he’s never had any difficulty doing nothing if his attention hasn’t been caught by something interesting enough. “People waste years of their lives not being willing to waste hours of their lives,” he said. “If you work hard on something before knowing whether it is important or not, you’re not able to see what really is important.” As a writer, Lewis asks himself this question: “If a story I’ve gotten to know didn’t get told, would I be sad?” If the answer is yes, he will take it on. I think Michael Lewis may be right. Being lazy allows us to make sure the work we do is our very best work. 16. What does the underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refer to? A. A book. B. Laziness. C. The key. D. Success 17. How to understand the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3? A. It’s strange that people believe being lazy is a bad thing. B. Being busy might make people feel bored and unhappy. C. People are looking for a balance between work and life. D. Few people will accept Lewis’ idea about laziness. 18. We can learn from the passage that Michael Lewis ________. A. is not so famous as what people say on the Internet B. believes that laziness is useful for him in getting success C. read a lot when he was a student in primary school D. followed his parents’ advice on working hard 19. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. People regard laziness as something special in today’s culture. B. Most of us have to work for long hours to make money. C. Working hard on something that you are interested in is difficult. D. We should know whether it is important before working hard on it. 20. What is the passage mainly about? A. Tips on how to avoid being lazy. B. A discussion about laziness. C. An uncommon idea about laziness. D. The key to success—working hard. 二、完形填空。（每小题1.5分） A Stress is the feeling you get when you’re really worried about something. This is the kind of worry that troubles you for hours, or even days.

And they get a lot of them each year. Kids have holidays for about 185 days a year in total. Besides summer holiday and winter holiday, they have spring break. It is a week off from school. For students, holidays are wonderful. But parents think there are advantages and disadvantages. School holidays let children have more time to stay with their family. Many American parents can take time off from work in June, July or August to take a trip with their children. American students enjoy going on trips with their parents. They also enjoy doing many kinds of things in the holiday. For example, some kids enjoy summer camps and outdoor activities. Such trips are great for students who like going out, and also help a lot of students who aren’t interested in PE activities. They can have classes about survival (生存) skills. Students learn how to make a camp in the forest, what kind of food they can eat and how to get back to the camp. Students who are not excited about summer camps and outdoor activities may have classes about designing (设计) computer games, making movies and taking pictures in the holidays. Finally, school trips to other countries are always popular, and they make it easy for students to learn about the life in other countries. However, schoolchildren get much more time off school than parents get off from work. So students sometimes just stay at home, feeling bored in the long summer vacation.
