    My 10-year-old Donna said, “Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow?” Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.
    “Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile.
    In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon.” she told me. But three days later, Lillian’s sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn’t come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.
    The next day Donna brought her new friend home. “Hi, Mrs. Loggia.” the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile. “My name is Laura.”
    My daughter’s new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled (迷惑) when Laura’s mom came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. “Judy!” she cried. “It’s me, Lillian’s sister, from Washington Heights.” Yes, my daughter’s friend looked familiar. She was Lillian’s niece.
    小题1:The underlined words in the first paragraph “to bring her out of her shell” mean ___________.
    A．to help her become less shyB．to help her become smart
    C．to help her live happilyD．to help her walk out of her house
    小题2:Laura looked familiar to the writer because she ____________.
    A．was Lillian’s niece
    B．was as old as her daughter
    C．was from Washington Heights
    D．had shiny black hair and a big smile, too
    小题3:Why did the writer lose her best friend?   Because ____________________.
    A．she moved to New Jersey
    B．they were different from each other
    C．her best friend travelled to Florida
    D．her best friend lost her life on a trip
    小题4:“I knew we would be best friends forever.” is a sentence from the passage and should be put at the end of _______．
    A．Paragraph 2B．Paragraph 3C．Paragraph 4D．Paragraph 5
    小题5:We can infer (推断) from the passage that______.
    A．Laura is outgoing
    B．Laura helps Donna a lot
    C．Laura and Donna are of the same age
    D．Judy moved to New Jersey because of Lillian’s death

    小题1:A
    小题2:D
    小题3:D
    小题4:A
    小题5:A

    小题1:A 猜测词义题。根据Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell. Donna是一个害羞的女孩，作者希望交新朋友能让她从这样的性格中走出来，即让他不是这么害羞，故A正确。
    小题2:D 细节题。根据第二段最后一行with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile.和倒数第二段最后一行Her hair was so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile说明D正确。
    小题3:D 细节题。根据第三段3,4行Lillian’s sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn’t come out any more.说明D正确。
    小题4:A 推理题。这句话是表示两个人有深刻的友谊，故应该放在第二段我和Lillian见面以后的情景。
    小题5:A 推断题。根据文章最后一段可知Laura是Lillian的侄女，她们的长相和性格应该很相似，性格也有可能很外向。故A正确。

    One day a famous speaker gave a speech to a crowd of people. He held up a   21   bill. He asked, “Who would like this $20 bill ? ” Hands were   22  . Then he said, “I am going to give this $20 to one of you, but first let me do this.” He began to crumple（弄皱）the   23 .

    “My friends,” He continued, “You have all  30   a good lesson . No matter   31  I did to the money, you still wanted it because the bill did not lose its  32 . It was still worth $20. Many times in our   33 , we are dropped, crumpled, and stepped on, because we sometimes  34  wrong decisions, or we may   35  with something we do not   36 .When that happens, we feel depressed and think we are   37 .

    Nowadays, millions of lonely singles are now going online instead. The World Wide Web is quickly becoming the world’s most popular matchmaker（媒人）.
    Singles are flocking（涌向）to the Internet mainly because their busy lifestyles leave them little time to look for a significant other. Using dating sites（约会网址）is quick and convenient. Many singles say the regular dating scene has just led them from one bad experience to another and are ready to try something else. Dating sites also make it easy to avoid someone you are not interested in. In the real world, however, ignoring someone you don’t like can be difficult.
    Despite all the advantages, online dating also presents its own set of problems. People aren’t always those who they declare to be in their online description. Safety is another concern. You are just likely to find a criminal online as you are Mr. or Miss Right.
    Online dating experts recommend following a few safety tips:
    Guard your personal information. Never give out your personal information online. This includes your last name, phone number, home address and place of work.
    Watch for red flags. Do any of the people you are chatting with make disrespectful comments? Do they try to control you? Do they give false information about themselves? If so, forget them!
    Meet in a safe place. When meeting someone in person, choose a public location with other people around.
    Following these tips and you might be able to find the person of your dreams.

    Before you make friends, you have to decide who you want to be your friends. Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things they do.
    The quickest way to make a friend is to smile. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. It may not be easy at first to smile, but remember most people will stay away from a scared or angry looking face.
    One easy way to start a conversation with someone is to say something nice about him. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
    Ask your new friends questions about themselves. Who’s their favorite singer, where do they live, what do they do after school are all good questions to start a conversation. Make sure you have something to add to the conversation, too. When someone asks you a question, do have an answer for them. There’s nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a shrug (耸肩) for an answer.
    Kids who show an interest in other kids and who are kind and friendly make good friends. Remember, everyone wants to be around people who like to do similar things and people who are nice to them.
    小题1:This passage gives us some advice on _________.
    A．how to make friends
    B．what kind of person you can make friends with

    Facebook means never having to say goodbye. The social media website has earned a reputation for reconnecting old friends. Last week，a guy whom I hadn't seen since my bachelor party five years ago sent me a friend request. I accepted and waited for “Easy E” to send me a greeting of some kind. He had sought me out，after all.
    I learned from his profile that he was in a relationship and had a son. However，I'm pretty sure we won't ever write wall-to-wall，let alone e­mail each other. But he'll remain a friend of online until one of us makes a point of removing the other from his official list.
    My pool of friends consists of family members，college buddies，co­workers from past and  present，and friends of friends. There are 35 in all. If I spent some time uploading old e­mail addresses，I'm confident that I could increase my friend count actually.
    A person could make a mission out of reconnecting with childhood friends，former  classmates，distant cousins, and those one would like to get to know better. And some people can even handle hundreds of on­screen relationships，keeping up with the daily happenings of  their small army of companions. After all，there are worse fates than having too many friends.
    Thanks to e­mail，the inability to schedule face-to-face meetings no longer means a  friendship must come to a close. But even with e­mail，people will lose touch if one or both  parties stop writing back. That’s normal. People move from school to school，job to job，city to city. You never have to feel guilty for breaking away.
    Every day，the masterminds of Web 2.0 find new ways of making human communication  easier. However，convenience can be a crutch(拐杖)．Some things shouldn't be simplified. When it comes to friendship，there can be no shortcuts.
    小题1:According to Paragraph 1，the website is famous because ________.
    A．it has an interesting name of “Facebook”
    B．it helps people get in touch with old friends
    C．it can send people a greeting of some kind
    D．it reminds people of events in the past
    小题2:From the second paragraph we can learn that the writer ________.
    A．would write to the friend quite often
    B．asked the friend to e­mail him
    C．did get some information about the friend
    D．would keep in touch with the friend forever
    小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT true?
    A．There are 35 people in the author's list of friends right now.
    B．The author communicates with all the 35 friends by e­mails.
    C．The list of 35 friends doesn't include the old e­mail addresses.
    D．It is not difficult for the author to increase his friend count.
    小题4:What does the author think of the convenience of communicating online?
    A．The technology could not keep true friendship forever.
    B．The social website of Facebook means nothing at all.
    C．There will be no ways of making real friends online.
    D．People will not lose friends with the help of the Facebook.
