    　　Friendship can deeply affect the physical and mental health of both men and women. Studies show that people who have no friends or who are lonely，are more likely to die earlier，get sick more often and suffer greater physical wear and tear（折磨）than those who have a support system of friends.
    　　Sometimes，family members may be more likely to give you advice or tell you what you don’t want to hear. It may not be as good as a friend who will listen to you and guide you，but support your decisions anyway. The most important elements about friendship are those who suffer support and do not judge your decisions based on society.
    　　One reason for the link between social support and good health practice seems to be that people who feel cared for by others are less stress-out and are protected against the symptoms（症状）of depression and loneliness.
    　　Generally，women benefit most because of how they deal with stress. Women are more social in how they deal with stress than men, while men are more likely to have a“fight or flight”reaction.
    　　Women also tend to have larger，denser social network，in which more people know each other and help each other, while men typically have smaller groups of friends and will rely on their wives or other important people for more support. While all these affect people psychologically（心理上），friendship brings comfort that reduces the ill effects of stress, and the sex difference also contributes to the difference in the length of one’s life time.
    63．In the author’s opinion，a real friend should _____.
    A．tell you what to do even if you refuse to hear it
    B．try to persuade you to change your mind quickly
    C．judge your decision according to his／her experience
    D．give you advice but respect your own decision
    64．Women benefit more from friendship than men because_____.
    A．women are always cared for by more people than men
    B．women are usually less stress—out when staying with others
    C．women are more likely to solve problems with friends’ help
    D．women can always keep more long-life friendship than men
    65．According to the passage we can infer that _____.
    A．it’s good for women to tell men what they should do or not
    B．friends are always more important than family members
    C．men don’t want to share their problems with many people
    D．the trend that women can live longer makes them more relaxed
    66．This passage mainly talks about _____.
    A．why people should develop friendship
    B．when friendship affects people’s health
    C．people’s different attitudes towards friendship
    D．the friendship which can make people live longer

    However urban life strikes you, cities worldwide have been growing ever more rapidly. Some of this growth has occurred in the developed world, but the most dramatic increase has been in the Third World. Almost all the world’s population growth over the next 30 years will take place in the cities of developing countries
    By the year 2030, for the first time in history, 60 percent of the world’s people will be living in cities.
    This is actually good news in some ways. “Cities are the fundamental building blocks of prosperity,” says Marc Weiss, chairman of the Prague Institute for Global Urban Development, “ both for the nation and for families.” Industrial and commercial activities in urban areas account for between 50 and 80 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP) in most countries of the world“ there’s the crazy notion that the way to deal with a city’s problems is to keep people out of them,”Weiss continued. “But the problems of the rural life are even more serious than those of the city.” For better or worse, urban-watchers are clear on one point: The quality of life for most people in the future will be determined by the quality of cities. Those cities will be bigger than ever. And yet, population numbers by themselves don’t determine a city’s prospects; after all, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and Hamburg, Germany, have the same population. Nor is explosive growth necessarily the determining factor. “City problems,” one authority points out, “mostly have to do with weak, ineffective, and usually unrepresentative city governments.”
    【小题1】The passage mainly discusses ______________.

    A．Big cities.B．City life.C．Population.D．Gross Domestic Product.
    【小题2】According to the passage, in the year of 2030 _______.
    A．there will be 21 cities having a population of more than 10 million.
    B．rural area will be extinct.
    C．most people will live in cities.
    D．the third world will keep abreast with the developed world.
    【小题3】In the author’s opinion, _________.
    A．better city, better life
    B．both urban and rural areas have a larger population
    C．the larger population, the faster a city develops
    D．both urban and rural areas have larger gross domestic products
    【小题4】Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
    A．The developing countries develop faster than the developed countries.
    B．Cities contribute more to the GDP than the villagers.
    C．Some problems are more easily solved in cities than in country.
    D．It’s impossible to solve urban problems by getting people out of cities.
    【小题5】The last paragraph implies that ____________.
    A．Public services are ineffective.
    B．Cities are increasing too fast.
    C．Population is not linked with development.
    D．Government should be responsible for the problems in the cities.

    After my brother died in an accident, my mother was in deep sadness. I was only a four-year-old girl at the time, but I still understood the sudden shift in my mom’s attitude towards safety. Suddenly everything around us was potentially dangerous. Overnight, the world had gone from a playground to a dangerous zone. I grew up with a lot of limits and rules. I couldn’t walk home from school by myself, even though everyone I knew already did. I couldn’t go to summer camp because what if something happened to me?
    As I got older, the list of things of fear got longer. My whole life was divided into “things you should avoid”, and “things you needed to do in order to have a good, long life.” I became a natural worrier. I worry about things like getting cancer, losing my wallet, car accidents, earthquakes, and losing my job — disasters big and small, real and imagined.
    The funny part is that you’d never know it by looking at my life. In fact, I’ve developed a rule for myself: If it scares me, then I have to do it at least once. I’ve done lots of things that my mom would have worried about: I’ve ridden a motorcycle; I’ve traveled —a lot. I’ve performed stand-up comedy, and I’m planning my second wedding.
    There’s something else I don’t usually talk about, but it’s a cornerstone in my belief: When I was 14, my mother died suddenly in a car accident. At my mom’s funeral I remember making a choice. I could either live out the rest of my life trying to be “safe” or I could be brave enough to live out a fulfilling, exciting and, yes, sometimes dangerous life.
    I worry that I may have betrayed(背叛) my mother by writing her in this light, but she has been a driving force in my life and, in the end I think she would have been proud of me. Courage isn’t a natural character of human beings. I believe that using courage is like developing a muscle. The more often I do things that scare me or that make me uncomfortable, the more I realize that I can do a lot more than I originally thought I could do.
    Even though I inherited (继承) my mother’s cautious nature. I’ve also come to believe that fear can be a good thing, if we face it. Believing that has made my world a less scary place.
    【小题1】In the writer’s childhood, the limits and rules were used to ______.

    A．improve her behaviorB．develop her independence
    C．be in memory of her dead brotherD．protect her from possible danger
    【小题2】 How does the writer deal with the things that frighten her?
    A．She just ignores them.B．She faces up to them.
    C．She turns to her mother for help.D．She does them with her friends.
    【小题3】From the passage, we can learn that ______.
    A．the writer failed in her first marriage
    B．nothing can make the writer afraid now
    C．frightening things made the writer lose her self-confidence
    D．the writer’s mother felt annoyed with her
    【小题4】What does the passage mainly talk about?
    A．Mothers influence their children much.
    B．Fear is in fact not a bad thing.
    C．Facing fear bravely produces courage.
    D．The world is not as scary as people expect.
