    C
    When asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves, many put friends ahead of homes, jobs, clothes and cars.
    A true friendship carries a long history of experience that determines who we are and keeps us connected. It is a treasure we should protect. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the more probably you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want an end to the relationship.
    The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended First, don’t’ let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open. Second, apologize when you’re wrong – even if you’ve been wronged. Over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes. When you apologize, give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyles change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy. The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the natural ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships. My suggestion: Consider friendship an honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and nurture.

    D
    Time out, extra chores and taking away privileges are more useful forms of disciplining (惩戒)naughty children than spanking or hitting, according to a study on Wednesday.
    About 94 percent of parents use some form of physical punishment to teach their two-year-olds right from wrong, according to research studies. But psychologists say it could lead to later emotional and behavioral problems.
    Even children who were only spanked some of the time are more likely to show signs of sadness or have less confidence.
    “The key is to be fair and do the same thing each time. Doing something like hitting a child that seems cruel at best doesn’t help and can put a child at risk for problems,” said Dr Paul Frick, of the University of New Orleans in Louisians.
    “It is better to use other punishments,” he added.
    The use of physical punishment to teach children has long been debated. In countries such as Austria, Finland, Germany and Sweden, it is illegal to use physical punishment at home or in schools.
    Frick and his team, who studied the effects of physical punishment on 98 children, said they couldn’t find any positive effects. Some children learned more from the hitting than what the parent was trying to teach them.
    “The key is to have a lot of different forms of punishment depending on the age of the child,” said Frick, who reported his findings in the Journal of Applied Child Psychology.
    He recommended time out for younger children and taking away television and electronic toys for older children. Giving extra chores can also get the message across.
    Other measures are at least as effective as physical punishment and have less harmful potential consequences.
    The researchers kept children whom they thought were at risk of later conduct problems out of the test and an equal number of other children who acted as a control group, to study what measures would be most helpful.
    They questioned the parents and the children about positive and negative parenting behavior including the use of physical punishment.
    “We got it from both viewpoints,” said Frick.
    He added that children on the receiving end of a hit can learn that when they are upset and angry they hit, rather than understanding their behavior was wrong and that they need to do better.
    67. What’s the purpose of the writer to write this article?
    A.To debate if physical punishment is illegal.
    B.To introduce how to deal with young kids.
    C.To talk about how to discipline young kids.
    D.To order parents not to spank young kids.
    68. Which of the following punishments is NOT recommended by Frick and his team?
    A. Taking away toys                                B. Not allowing watching TV
    C. Doing more housework.                   D. Switching TV channels 
    69. What should be kept in mind when disciplining a kid?
    A. How he or she usually behaves.
    B. Tell them why they are punished.
    C. Use different forms of punishment each time.
    D. Be fair and stick to the same principle.
    70. According to the passage, why did Dr Frick advise against physical punishment?
    A. Because the children may hit people as a solution to problems.
    B. Because the children will learn their behavior is wrong in time.
    C. Because it is illegal to use physical punishment in certain countries.
    D. Because parents think it’s the easiest way to teach kids right from wrong.

    1685 was a very good year for German composers. Within the space of a month, two of the greatest were born: Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel.
    Handel’s father was a barber and surgeon, which sounds like a strange combination today, but back then those occupations went hand in hand. Even though Handel was very interested in music, his father didn’t think that was a good way to earn a living, so he wanted his son to be a lawyer. The story goes that Handel smuggled a quiet piano into the house so that he could practice in secret.
    One day, Handel went along when his father went to shave a duke. While his father was working, Handel sat down and played the duke’s organ. The duke was so impressed that he convinced Handel’s father to let his son study music, and Handel finally got to learn how to compose.
    Handel soon discovered that what he liked most was opera. In fact, he was so passionate about opera that he even fought a duel (决斗) over it with one of his friends. Since Italy was the place to learn about opera composing, Handel went off to Italy to study. When he got home, he got a job as court composer for a German prince.
    Having landed such a wonderful job, Handel immediately asked his boss for time off. He wanted to go to England, where he’d heard that there weren’t nearly enough composers to satisfy the British taste for Italian opera.
    After great success writing opera in London, Handel came back to Germany. Then fate played a funny trick on Handel and his boss. The Queen of England died, and it just so happened that the prince Handel worked for was next in line to the British throne ( 王位 ). When he arrived in London as King George, followed Handel, his court composer in Germany.
    In addition to serving the King, Handel became one of the most successful opera composers of his time. And he also produced them and traveled all over Europe to hire the best singers. There are stories of battles with rival ( 对手 )opera producers and of fights between rival singers. Handel apparently had quite a temper.
    If you ever go to London, look for Handel’s grave in Westminster Abbey, where there’s a wonderful monument to him.
    66. How did Handel begin to learn to compose?
    A. His father was sure of his future success.
    B. His performance impressed a duke.
    C. He begged his father to send him to Italy.
    D. He practiced hard and taught himself music.
    67. What does the underlined word “smuggled” mean in the passage?
    A. bought secretly               B. took secretly  
    C. carried in advance          D. possessed personally
    68. Why did Handel later settle down in Britain instead of Germany?
    A. Because he could find better jobs in London.
    B. Because he enjoyed greater fame in London.
    C. Because his boss became King of Britain and brought him along.
    D. Because London was a wonderful place to learn about opera.
    69. Which of the following words can NOT be used to describe Handel, as 
    shown in the passage?
    A. bad-tempered   B. talented     C. enthusiastic  D. optimistic
    70. Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage?
    A. Handel was born in the same year with Bach.
    B. Many people worked both as a barber and surgeon.
    C. Handel quit his job to learn about opera in Italy.
    D. Handel was buried in London and was built a monument.

        Homebuyers nationwide are watching housing prices going up, up, and up. “How high can they go?” is the question on everyone’s lips? “As long as interest rates stay around 5 percent, there’s no telling,” remarked one realtor in Santa Monica, California.
    “It’s crazy,” said Tim, who is looking for a house near the beach. “In 1993, I bought my first place, a two-bedroom condominium in Venice, for $70,000. My friends thought then that I was overpaying. Five years later, I had to move. I sold it for $230,000, which was a nice profit. Last year, while visiting friends here, I saw in the local paper that the exact same condo was for sale for $510,000!”
    It is a seller’s market. Homebuyers feel like they have to offer at least 10 percent more than the asking price. Donna, a new owner of a one-bedroom condo in Venice Beach, said, “That’s what I did. I told the owner that whatever anyone offers you, I’ll give you $20,000 more, under the table, so you don’t have to pay your realtor any of it. I was tired of looking.”
    Tim says he hopes he doesn’t get that desperate. “Whether you decide to buy or decide not to buy, you still feel like you made the wrong decision. If you buy, you feel like you overpaid. If you don’t buy, you want to kick yourself for passing up a great opportunity.”
    Everyone says the bubble(泡沫) has to burst sometime, but everyone hopes it will burst the day after they sell their house. Even government officials have no idea what the future will bring. “All we can say is that, inevitably, these things go in cycles,” said the state director of housing. “What goes up must come down. But, as we all know, housing prices always stay up a little higher than they go down. So you can’t lose over the long run. Twenty years down the road, your house is always worth more than you paid for it.”
    60．If Tim had sold his flat last year, he could have earned          .
    A．$ 510,000                B．$ 440,000                C．$ 280,000                D．$ 160,000
    61．Donna paid another $ 20,000 to the owner secretly because          .
    A．she felt like offering 10% more                    B．secret money made low price
    C．the owner asked for the money                  D．she was bored with bargaining
    62．We can infer from Tim’s words in paragraph 4 that           .
    A．homebuyers feel hesitate facing rising house prices
    B．buying a house is always a great opportunity
    C．homebuyers never make the right decision
    D．both sellers and buyers become desperate
    63．What is the author’s opinion about the housing bubble?          
    A．It is something everyone hates to see
    B．Only experts know when it will burst
    C．It is unavoidable in the regular circles
    D．It usually stays for about twenty years

    When I was quite young, I discovered that somewhere inside the telephone lived an amazing
    person - "Information Please" and there was nothing she did not know.　
    One day while my mother was out, I hit my finger with a hammer. The pain was terrible, but
    there was no one home to give me any sympathy. I walked around the house, finally arriving at the telephone! Quickly, I called “Information Please" and told her what happened.  She told me to open the icebox and hold a little piece of ice to my finger.
    After that, I called "Information Please" for everything. When my pet bird died, I told
    "Information Please" the sad story. She tried to comfort me, she said quietly, "Paul, always remember that there are other worlds to sing in." Somehow I felt better. Another day I was on the telephone, “How do you spell ‘grateful’? ". All this took place in a small town in the Pacific Northwest. When I was 9, we moved to Boston.
    A few years later, on my way to college, my plane put down in Seattle. I had about half an
    hour or so between planes. Without thinking, I dialed my hometown operator and said, "Information, please."    　　
    Surprisingly, I heard the small, clear voice I knew so well, "Information." I hadn't planned on
    this but I heard myself saying, "Could you please tell me how to spell ‘grateful’?"  
    There was a long pause. Then came the soft-spoken answer, "I guess your finger must have
    healed by now."   I laughed. "So it's really still you," I said, "I wonder if you have any idea how much you meant to me during that time."  I told her how often I had thought of her over the years and asked if I could call her again. "Please do," she said, "Just ask for Sally."　　
    Three months later I was back in Seattle. A different voice answered me. I was told that Sally
    passed away five weeks before.   　　
    Before I could hang up she told me that Sally left a message for me—“Tell him I still say
    there are other worlds to sing in. He'll know what I mean.”  I thanked her and hung up. I knew what Sally meant.
    Never underestimate the impression you may make on others. Whose life have you touched
    today?
