Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh, and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we will feel lonely if we never have a friend.
No two people are just the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well. That doesn’t mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will make up and go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we call them and write to them. It could be that we would even 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 or women who have been friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.
There’s more good news for people who have friends. They live longer than people who don’t. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. If someone cares about you, you will feel good.
1.The first paragraph tells us ________.
A. what the feeling of having no friends is
B. we always need friends around us
C. making friends is a need in people’s life
D. we need to be alone in our life
2.Which of the following places people name after their friendly people is NOT mentioned (提到) in the passage?

Parties and social gatherings no longer excite us the same way they once did. This is not due to a lack of desire to socialize, but the smartphone.
At parties, more people are on their smartphones than on their drinks. According to a recent International Data Corporation study, well over half of all Americans have a smartphone and reach for it the moment they wake up, keeping it in hand all day. In addition, too many people in society are using smartphones while driving and as a result, they get into car crashes. 34 percent of teenagers admit to texting while driving, and they confirm that text messaging is their number one driving interruption. People's attachment to their smartphones is unbelievably becoming more important than the lives of themselves and others.
Just as drivers dismiss the importance of focusing while on the road, many people also fail to recognize the significance of human interaction. When with their friends, some people pointlessly check or send text messages in the presence of a friend, which sends a message to that friend: the person I am texting is more important than you. In addition, relying on our smartphones to make friends does not give us the same advantage as being able to make new friendships in the real world. Face?to?face conversations will give us much stronger communication skills in the long run.
As many people risk their lives and the lives of people around them just to send a text or mindlessly check their messages, smartphones are in many ways more dangerous to people. The quality of this technology is preventing societal achievements and weakening the value of communication. Not only is the smartphone affecting our desire to interact (交流) face?to?face, but it is also lowering society's ability to communicate.
1.The purpose of this text is to ________.
A.call for an end to use the smartphone while driving
B.appeal to us to pay attention to communication skills
C.express a concern about the overuse of the smartphone
D.advise us to be cautious about the addiction to the smartphone
2.The second paragraph is developed by ________.
A.giving examples B.listing figures
C.comparing facts D.analyzing the effects
3.The author advocates us to make new friends ________.
A.by using smartphones
B.in a face?to?face way
C.in different ways
D.under a free circumstance
4.Over?dependence on the smartphone leads to the fact that ________.
A.parties and gatherings limit their social circle
B.people are more and more narrow?minded
C.people's communication skills are weakened
D.face?to?face communication becomes less important

One afternoon last week, I saw three tearful children from my son's school being comforted by teachers.That morning, my 11?year?old son had stomach pains, retching (干呕) into a bowl.Talking to other mothers later, I heard about other children with stomachache or difficulty sleeping the night before.
What caused so much pain? Sports day.Sports day might be necessary at a highly?competitive independent school, but not at a village primary school.For the children who can fly like the wind, sports day causes no problem.For those who are overweight or just not good at sport, it is a nightmare (噩梦).Even for those who enjoy running but fall halfway down the track in front of the entire school and their parents, it can prove a disaster.
Why do we put our children through this annual suffering? Some may say competition is character building; or it's taking part, not winning, that's important；or that it is a tradition of school life.I just felt great pity for those children in tears or in pain.
Team games at the end of sports day produced some close races, wild enthusiasm, lots of shouting — and were fun to watch.More importantly, the children who were not so fast or quick at passing the ball were hidden a little from everyone's eyes.Some of them also had the thrill of being on the winning side.
I wish that sports day could be abandoned and replaced with some other less?competitive event.Perhaps an afternoon of team games, with a few races for those who want them, would be less stressful for the children and a lot more fun to watch.
1.What can we learn about the author's son from Paragraph 1?
A.He talked with some mothers.
B.He comforted his classmates.
C.He had difficulty in sleeping.
D.He suffered from stomachache.
2.Sports day is still an annual event in this school probably because________.
A.this is an independent school
B.it is a tradition of the school
C.it helps children lose weight
D.children enjoy watching sports
3.What does the author think about team games?
A.They should include more stressful races.
B.They are acceptable to different children.
C.They should be abandoned at primary schools.
D.They are less fun for those who love running.
4.What is the author's attitude towards sports day?
A.Critical. B.Neutral.
C.Positive. D.Ambiguous.

Sir Edmund Hillary is best known for being the first, along with climbing partner Tenzing Norgay, to reach the top of Mount Everest(珠穆朗玛峰). However, he also made many visits to Antarctica(南极洲). In 1957, he led the first trip over ice to the South Pole. Hillary also helped his home country, New Zealand, build a research center on Antarctica, called Scott Base. He visited it in January 2007, when he was 87 years old.
In the 1900s, many people like Hillary saw Antarctica as an exciting place. Scientists are interested in how glaciers(冰川) flow and melt. They also worry that global(全球的) warming is making glaciers melt faster. It has caused a 75 percent increase in ice loss in the last 10 years, according to a new study. Scientists say ice loss could cause water levels around the world to rise faster than expected. Ice is melting faster than expected because of global warming.
Researchers in Antarctica are studying many other subjects too. Some use the cold weather and clear air as a way to study things that affect other parts of the globe. Antarctica has the cleanest air in the world. That allows scientists to compare the air there to the air in polluted places. Antarctica is the darkest place on earth, so it is a great place to study the stars. Some scientists are even studying penguin droppings(企鹅粪). They have developed a new test to learn more about penguins’ diets.
1.What is Sir Edmund Hillary best known for?
A. He was the first to reach the top of Mount Everest.
B. He went to Antarctica many times.
C. He led the first trip to the South Pole.
D. He helped build a research center on Antarctica.
2.The final result of global warming is that ________.
A. there would be no ice
B. water levels could rise faster
C. the climate would become warm
D. the ocean would be polluted
3.Who of the following would NOT be interested in Antarctica?
A. People who are interested in what penguins eat.
B. Researchers who like watching stars.
C. Adventurers who decide to climb Mount Everest.
D. Scientists who are studying the world’s air.
4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
