Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do many things with. Sure, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.
No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well. That doesn’t mean they no longer like each other. Most of the time, they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named in this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.
There is more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people who do not have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares. If someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.

A. what is the feeling of having no friends B. how to communicate with friends

Have you ever wondered what goes through your mind when you choose where to sit in a new classroom? Or in a waiting room full of strangers? Or on a bus? Researchers have found out some interesting facts.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves. Girls sit by girls and boys sit by boys. Adults sit together and young people choose another young person to sit near. But it goes further than this. We even choose to sit near someone who looks like us. People with glasses are more likely to sit near other people with glasses. People with long hair sit closer to other people with long hair.
We seem to believe that people with similar habits or hobbies will share similar attitude and we are more likely to be accepted by people like ourselves or even, we think we may be safer with people who look like us. Sometimes that’s true but it's a pity if we always stick to the same people, the same group. The danger in always staying in our comfort zone (舒适区)is that we just recycle the same opinions, the same tastes and the same ideas. We lose the chance to learn something new, find out about interesting things, hear funny stories and discover difference.?
When we always stick to the same people, how can we ever break down the barriers which prevent us from getting to know people with different ideas? And how can we avoid the ignorance (无知),which too often leads to prejudice (偏见) and even fear? If instead you want to live in a society that opens to changes and new things and different opinions, be the cat among the pigeons.
Move out of your comfort zone. Go and sit next to someone different. And don't just sit there in silence. Say hello. Ask a question. Start a conversation. That’s how we make friends. That’s how we learn about people. That’s how we open our minds to new ideas. That's how we live an exciting life.
1.From the passage, we know that people prefer sitting by someone who
A. is like themselves B. has a sense of humor
C. is open-minded D. lives an exciting life
2.People like staying in their comfort zone because they may
A. remain comfortable and special B. be accepted easily and feel safe
C. find out more interesting things D. discover differences among themselves
3.The underlined word “barriers” in Paragraph 4 means .
A. doors B. difficulties C. ideas D. rules
4.Why does the writer ask us to meet people of different kinds?
A. Because we feel safer and share similar tastes and ideas.
B. Because we can enjoy an interesting and different ideas.
C. Because we can say hello and ask them questions.
D. Because we want to live in a society full of humour.
5.What is the title of this passage?
A. Just to be ourselves B. Learn more about the foreign countries
C. Live an exciting life D. Jump out of the comfort zone

Do you look like your name?Scientists say there's a good chance you do.
This comes from a new study published in a magazine.Researchers from Israel our given names may have something to do with our facial appearances.
Lead writer Yonat Zwebner of a university,along with her team,did eight different experiments in Israel and France.The different experiments were set up to answer two main questions :whether people can correctly guess a person's name based only on a photo of a face and what is behind this matching effect.
During the experiments,researchers asked students to look at photos of people's faces and guess each person's name from a list of four choices.They correctly guessed the right name 38 percent of the time,which was better than the 25 percent of a random（随机的）guess.
What's more ,when the faces the students looked at came from within their own country ,they were able to best match the faces to the names.French students were better at matching only French names and faces while Israeli students were better at matching only Hebrew names and Israeli faces.
Researchers believe it is possible that people change their appearances without paying attention to it,to match their names.One study especially backed up this idea,showing that a hairstyle ,something that can be changed by people easily,was enough to guide others in correctly guessing their names.
The results of the experiments may even make parents think twice when choosing a name for their children.
“If name can influence（影响）appearance,it can influence many other thing .This research opens an important direction that may suggest how parents should consider better the names for their children,”said Zwebner ,who recently had a baby herself.
“As parents, it was really difficult for us to name our 12-day-old daughter as we know the meaning of names.”
1.One of the purposes（目的）of the experiments is to .
A. give the students a chance to know each other.
B. explain what influences our facial appearances.
C. find out different meanings carried by different names.
D. see if people can correctly guess a person's name based only on a photo of a face.
2.People could match the faces to the names more easily .
A. when they did a random guess
B. when the faces are from other countries.
C. when the faces are from their own country.
D. when they have more knowledge themselves.
3.The underlined part“backed up”in Paragraph 6 most probably meas“ ”。
A. supported B. changed C. compared D. canceled
4.According to Zwebner,we know that .
A. facial appearances may influence names.
B. we shouldn't think of others just according to their names.
C. a name may influence many things and should be well chosen.
D. we should pay less attention to the meanings of names and be ourselves.

Earthquakes happen without warning (前兆). They can happen at any time of a day, at any point during the year. But don't worry because most of them are very weak and only a few big ones hurt people. When an earthquake is happening, you should know what to do and what not to do.
Do NOT go outside immediately. You could get injured from falling glass or parts of buildings. If you are outside, stay away from buildings and power lines (输电线). Stay under a desk, table, or other strong furniture. Hold on to it. Or stay in a comer of the building. Cover your face and head with your arms and cover your mouth with a towel or clothing. Stay inside until shaking stops and it is safe to go outside.
Keep away from windows, pictures or advertisements on the wall or the building, and
anything else that could fall and hurt you. Most people get injured by falling things during an
earthquake, not by the shaking itself.
Also keep away from a fire. You could fall down and bum yourself on the fire.
