A high school history teacher once told me, "If you make one close friend in school, you will be the most fortunate. A true friend is someone who stays with you for life."_36__ teaches that he was right. Good friendship is just not easily_37__.
It is possible that we simply do not stay in one place long enough for a _38_ friendship to 39 . However, there can be 40 disagreement on the need for each of us to think carefully about the kind of friendship we want.
To most of us, friendships are considered very important, but we need to be clear in our __41_ the kinds of friendship we want. Are they to be close or _42 at arm"s length? Do we want to 43 ourselves or do we want to walk on the surface? For some people , many friendships on the surface are __44_ enough-- and that"s all right. But on some points, we need to 45 that our expectations are the same as our friends" expectations. The sharing 46 experience 47 our tears as well as our dark dreams is the surest way to deepen friendships. But it 48 be undertaken slowly and carried on only if there are 49 of interest and action in return.
What are some of the _50__ of friendship? The greatest is the attraction to expect too much time or too soon. Deep relationships 51 time. Another "major difficulty" is the selfishness to think one "possesses" the other, including his time and attention. Similarly, friendships 52 actions in return . In 53 words, you must give as much as you take. Finally there is a question of taking care of . Unless you spend 54 time together , talking on the phone, writing letters, doing things together, friendships will die 55 .

A group of graduates, successful in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor．Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life．
Before offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups-porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking and cheap, some exquisite and expensive-telling them to help themselves to the coffee．
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones．While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress．Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee．In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink．What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups．．．And then you began eyeing each other"s cups．
Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups．They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of Life we live．Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us．"
God brews the coffee, not the cups．Enjoy your coffee!
"The happiest people don"t have the best of everything．They just make the best of everything．"
Live simply．Love generously．Care deeply．Speak kindly．Leave the rest to God．
小题1:What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to?| A．the ordinary-looking cup | B．the nice-looking cup | | C．the coffee of good quality | D．the coffee of poor quality |
小题2:Why did the professor offer his students coffee with varieties of cups?| A．To give his students many more choices． | | B．To teach his students how to enjoy coffee． | | C．To show the students his collection of cups． | | D．To tell his students the right attitude to life |
小题3:According to the professor, the happiest people are the ones who _____．| A．get the best type of coffee cups | B．make the best of what they have | | C．have a wide range of coffee cups | D．care about social status and wealth |
小题4:The best title for the passage would be _____．| A．God"s Coffee | B．The Pressure of Life | | C．The Happiest People | D．Professor"s Coffee Cups |

I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict. I ’m left 36 . Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other 37 ？
I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s, 38 children from different races and religions played and studied 39 in harmony. At that time my family lived a stone s 40 from Ismail’s. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and Iwas an Indian Hindu——we just 41 our differences. Perhaps, our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice，well 42 or otherwise.
We were nine when we became friends. During the school holidays, we"d 43 the countryside on our bicycles, hoping to 44 the unexpected. At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town. We would be glad of his 45 .
When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail s family later returned to their village, and I 46 touch with him.
One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. I 47 my destination. The driver acknowledged my 48 but did not move off. Instead, he looked 49 at me. “Raddar?" he said, using my childhood nickname(绰号). I was astonished at being so 50 addressed (称呼). Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two 51 we still recognized each other. Grasping his shoulder, I felt a true affection, something 52 to describe.
If we can allow our children to be 53 without prejudice, they"ll build friendships with people, regardless of race or religion, who will be 54 their side through" thick and thin. On such friendships are societies built and 55 we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote, 44we happy few, we band of brothers".

Once upon a time there were two brothers who lived near each other. One day, they had a 16 because of some small things. And neither was willing to 17 each other.
One morning, there was a knock at door of the elder brother. He 18 it and found a man standing beside the door. “I’m a carpenter(木匠). I’m 19 a few days’ work. Perhaps you would have a few small jobs I could help with.”
“Yes,” said the elder brother. “I do have a job for you. 20 at that farm across the small river. It is my younger brother’s. We had a quarrel, so I won’t like to see his 21 any more. I want you to build me a 8-foot 22. ”
The man said, “I think I understand the situation. Don’t worry. I’ll be able to do a job that makes you 23” So the elder brother was very glad and left for the town nearby.
In the evening, the carpenter had just 24 his job when the elder brother returned. But he was 25 to find, instead of a fence, before him, stood a 2 6, which went from one side of the river 27 the other! On the other 28 of bridge, was his younger brother.
“Do you know the name of the bridge?” The carpenter asked.
“No,” the elder brother was 29
“OK, I can tell you. Its name is understanding and 30,” the carpenter smiled.
Suddenly they began to understand 31. Surely, between two brothers there should be a bridge rather than a 32. Standing on the bridge, they 33each other’s hands with 34 in their eyes.
“Could you stay another few days? I’ve a lot of other work for you,” said the elder brother. “I’d love to 35 on,” the carpenter said. “But I have many more bridges to build.”

Butterfly’s wings

George, when your big brother and your little dog and I walked you up to school today, you had no idea how I was feeling.
You were so excited. You had packed and unpacked your pencils and safety scissors in your backpack a dozen times. I am really going to miss those lazy mornings when we waved your brother and sister off to school.
Because you are my youngest, I had learned a few things by the time you came along. I found out that the seemingly endless days of babyhood are gone like lightning. I blinked（眨眼）, and your siblings（兄弟姐妹） were setting off for school as eagerly as you did this morning, I was one of the lucky ones; I could choose whether to work or not. By the time it was your turn, the shining prizes of career advancement and a double income had lost their brightness. A splash（溅水）in the pool with you in your bright red boots or "just one more" rereading of your favorite book, Frog and Toad Are Friends, meant more. You didn"t go to preschool and I hope that doesn"t hold you back. You learned numbers by helping me count the soda cans we returned to the store.
I have to admit that in my mind’s eye, an image of myself while you"re in school has developed, I see myself updating all the photo albums and starting that novel I always wanted to write. As the summer wound down and more frequent quarrels erupted（爆发） between you and your siblings, I was looking forward to today. And then this morning, I walked you up the steep hill to your classroom and you gave me one of your characteristically fierce, too-tight hugs. This time you were ready to let go before I was.
Maybe someday you will deliver a kindergartner to the first day of school. When you turn at the door to wave good-bye, he or she will be too deep in conversation with a new friend to notice. Even as you smile, you"ll feel something warm on your cheek.
小题1:What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in the 3rd paragraph?| A．She gave up the job with a big salary and prizes. | | B．She could only recall her good job at home now. | | C．Many good jobs with better pay attracted her but she didn’t take them. | | D．Compared with bringing up the baby, work seemed to fade to her. |
小题2:Which statement is NOT TRUE about George"s family according to the letter?| A．George"s parents gave birth to three children. | | B．The Georges is a double income family. | | C．They recycled soda cans. | | D．The children had more arguments during the summer. |
小题3:The passage tries to show us ________.| A．how excited a child will be on his first day to school | | B．how deeply a mother loves her child | | C．how many efforts a mother has made to raise a child | | D．how a mother plans her future life after her children go to school |
