Many of us mistakenly believe that it’s wrong to think we have many good qualities. We may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities, thinking that self-criticism is the key to improving our performance. However, a constant focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. How can we believe that others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed(有缺点的)?
If someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you. The person who doesn’t like you might be fearful, shallow, busy or shy. Perhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time.
Don’t take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws are bigger than your good qualities. In fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. For all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least as many factors that will work in your favor with someone else.
You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life. There are many people who don’t mind your extra pounds. You may drive a shabby car, but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend. There are people looking for loyalty, fun, sweetness, or wisdom, and the package it comes in is not important. If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends. You can decide to feel inferior because you don’t have much money or you don’t drive a nice car. You can believe that this is the reason that you don’t have many friends in your life. On the other hand, if you are very wealthy you may be suspicious that everyone is after your money and that nobody really likes you as a person.
The point is that you can focus on anything and believe it’s the reason you do not have friends and cannot make any.
1.According to the author, plays an important role in making friends.
A.admitting your shortcomings B.self-criticism
C.modesty D.confidence
2.If you are not liked by a person, .
A.you should find the reason in yourself
B.you’d better talk with the person face to face
C.you may not be the one to be blamed
D.you and that person misunderstand each other
3.We can learn from the third paragraph that .
A.your good qualities may turn out to be your flaws
B.your weaknesses may also be your strengths in some way
C.your negative qualities cause a person to reject you
D.you’ll have few friends if your flaws are more than your good qualities
4.Which of the following is true according to the author?
A.It is important to lose weight.
B.It is easier for a wealthy person to make friends.
C.Inner qualities are more important than physical appearance.
D.If you are not beautiful enough, try to improve your physical beauty.

Winnie-the-Pooh
By A. A. Milne
Winnie-the-Pooh has been introduced and reintroduced to generation after generation as a model of a child’s best friend. However, not everyone has found Pooh is lovely. This classic has been banned in a variety of countries at one point. So why would anyone ever want to keep children from the joy of Milne’s classic? In the case of Russia, Winnie-the-Pooh was banned in 2009 because of alleged Nazi (纳粹党的) ties.
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
By Frank Baum
Originally published in the year 1900, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is one of the foundations of the fairytale genre. Who, then, would seek to ban a book that has become so important to the American experience?
America is that who. The Detroit Library banned The Wonderful Wizard of Oz in 1957 for having no value for children.
Charlotte’s Web
By E. B. White
White’s tale of the relationship between two unexpected creatures, a spider and a pig, has been drawing children in for over half a century. Published in 1952, this classic has been readily available on most library shelves for children to read. However, some people would like to make this book never see the light of day.
In one extreme case, a school in England banned Charlotte’s Web for fear that the pig Wilbur might be offensive (冒犯的) to Muslim students. Fortunately, the Muslim Council of Britain saw the foolishness of this ban, so the book was quickly restored to its right place on the shelves.
Where the Wild Things Are
By Maurice Sendak
Though its first copy was published fifty years ago, this book hasn’t always been readily available in libraries and in stores. After its release, Where the Wild Things Are was banned in libraries all across the U.S. for its dark tone and unruly leading characters. Nowadays, you’ll find far fewer libraries that still hold this ban.
1.The books which were once banned in the same country are ______.
A. Charlotte’s Web and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
B. Where the Wild Things Are and Winnie-the-Pooh
C. Where the Wild Things Are and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
D. Winnie-the-Pooh and Charlotte’s Web
2.Wilbur is the character of the book _______.
A. Charlotte’s Web.
B. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
C. Winnie-the-Pooh.
D. Where the Wild Things Are.
3.Who are the intended readers of the four books mentioned in the passage?
A. Parents. B. Children. C. Teachers. D. Critics.

Have you ever wondered?
1. Why do airplanes take longer to fly west than east?
It can take five hours to go west-east from New York (NY) to London but seven hours to travel east-west from London to NY. The reason for the difference is an atmospheric phenomenon known as the jet(喷射) stream. The jet stream is a very high altitude wind which always blows from the west to the east across the Atlantic. The planes moving at a constant air speed thus go faster in the west-east direction when they are moving with the wind than in the opposite direction.
2. What would happen if the gravity on Earth was suddenly turned off?
Supposing we could magically turn off gravity. Would buildings and other structures float away? What happened would depend on how strongly the things were attached to the Earth. The Earth is moving at quite a speed, moving at over a thousand miles per hour. If you turn something round your head on a string, it goes around in a circle until you let go of the string. Things not attached to the Earth would fly off in a straight line. People in buildings would suddenly shoot upwards at a great speed until they hit the ceiling. Most things would fly off into space.
1. What information can we get from the first passage?
A. The jet stream always blows from the east to the west across the Atlantic.
B. Planes go slower when they are moving with the wind.
C. It takes more time to fly from NY to London than from London to NY.
D. It is the jet stream that affects how fast airplanes fly.
2. The word “shoot” underlined in the 2nd passage probably means“ ______”.
A. send for B. come out
C. move quickly D. grow quickly
3. It can be inferred that without gravity _________.
A. trees and buildings would not so easily fly off
B. buildings and other structures would float away
C. something around your head would not float away
D. everything outside buildings would fly off into space
4. Where can we most probably read this text?
A. In a student’s book B. In a short story
C. In a travel magazine D. In a research paper

First, you ought to know that I’m “only” fourteen. My mother points this out often. I can make my own decisions when I’m old enough to vote, she says. Second, I should tell you that she’s right — I’m not always responsible. I sometimes take the prize for grade-A dork（呆子）. Take last weekend for instance. I was staying at Dad’s, and I decided it was time I learned to drive. It was Sunday morning, 7 A.M., and I hadn’t slept well. I’d been up thinking about an argument, which I’ll tell you about in a minute. Well, nobody was up yet in the neighborhood, so I thought it couldn’t hurt to back the car out of the garage and drive around the block. But Dad has a clutch（离合器）car. The “R” on the shift handle was up on the left side, right next to first gear（档位）. I guess you can guess the rest.
Dad’s always been understanding. He didn’t say, “Okay, little Miss Know-It-All, you can just spend the rest of the year paying this off,” which is what Mom would have said. Instead, Dad worried about what might have happened to me. And that made me feel more guilty than anything. I think he’d be a better number-one caregiver, but I can’t say things like that to Mom. To her, I have to say, “But Mom, Dad’s place is closer to school. I could ride my bike,” to which she replies, “Amy Lynn, you don’t own a bike. Remember? You left it in the yard, and it was stolen. And you haven’t got the patience to earn the money to replace it.”
1.The writer feels guilty because she ________.
A. made her dad worry
B. ruined the car
C. broke the law
D. didn’t tell her mom about the car incident
2.The main conflict between the writer and her mother is about whether she ________.
A. can make her own decisions
B. should live with her mom or her dad
C. should be allowed to drive
D. should pay for things she loses or breaks
3.The writer’s mother thinks the writer is ________.
A. too attached to her dad
B. too emotional
C. too shy
D. irresponsible
4.In the first sentence, the writer used “only” to suggest that she ________.
A. doesn’t want to grow old
B. thinks fourteen is old enough for some things
C. wishes she were older
D. thinks fourteen is an embarrassing age

When I was a kid, my siblings（兄弟姐妹） and I used to have ice cream for dessert.Every day, we would choose which ice cream flavor to have, whether to eat it in a cone or a bowl. Then we would happily wolf down our treat(款待) as fast as we could.
Once, though, when I was probably about 10 0r 11, our grandpa came to visit. Grandpa always had a unique view on things. On this particular occasion, my sister and I were making bets as to who could finish their ice cream first. With a smile, Grandpa said, "Why would you want to finish first? If you eat slowly, it will last longer. You should have acompetition to see who can finish last." Even now, I always try to taste my ice cream, but of course this is about more than just dessert.
Too often, kids want to scramble（争夺） for more, whether it's more ice cream, more toys, or more friends. This habit persists into our adult years, and we end up constantly scrambling for more. We never develop the skill of appreciating what we have. If we learn to recognize this pattern and change it, we can raise our kids a little differently, giving them the tool of tasting their proverbial dessert, which could lead to a happier life for them.
What my grandpa taught me that day was really that if you take the opportunity to enjoy what's in front of you, the pleasure will last longer and be more rewarding than if you rush through life always trying to get the next treat. It's a lesson that, I think, has made my adult life happier, as well. These days, when I want something, I wait as long as I can before I allow myself to have it. Then, when I finally get it, I make sure to treasure it as long as possible, because I know that, no matter what it is, it will be gone all too soon.
1.The author's grandfather advised her sister and her to _ .
A. eat ice cream as slowly as possible
B. stop eating ice cream
C. stop the competition between them
D. learn something from their way of eating
2. Which of the following best describes the author's grandfather?
A. Wise. B. Humorous. C. Strict. D. Careful.
3.What advice does the author give us in the passage?
A. Keep longing for more.
B. Value what you have.
C. Have a balanced diet.
D. Save for the future.
4.We can infer from the last paragraph that author
A. longs for the days when they ate ice cream
B. doesn't like ice cream as much as before
C. benefits a lot from her grandfather's advice
D. just starts to understand her grandfather
