    The other day I heard a few local musicians talking:
    "I hate all the pianos in this town and I hate that rubbish they play on the radio .They cannot every understand rhythm（韵律)"
    "Nobody wants to pay musicians anything. I'm sick of all the people who want you to play without paying you."
    One younger musician said, "There are several clubs who want me to play for a few nights a  month and I'm trying to find other places to play .I'm also planning to join in several summer festivals this year."
    I  really liked what the younger musician said so I made friends with him.
    Attitudes are important. Whether they're positive or negative(消极) they're all rubbing      off on you,If you're around people who are always complaining or blaming others, it is possible that you will start doing the same as well. If you spend lots of time with people who don't support your dreams, it is time to take a look at the people you call " friends".
    There is an easy exercise you can try. Make a list of the people who you often stay with, and simply stop , spending time with the negative ones on your list. Set a new standard for yourself and don't become friends with people who fall below that standard.
    Of course, this exercise is entirely different from making friends only for the good of oneself. We really should try to help and spend time with those who are working towards a goal or dream.
    小题1:The musicians' conversation at the beginning is there to show that
    A．musicians' living conditions are not good
    B．people in that town have poor taste in music
    C．young people are more likely to succeed

    小题2:The underlined part in Para. 6 means________.
    A．they'll have an influence on youB．they'll help you realize your dreams
    C．they'll keep you from moving onD．they'll push you ahead very hard
    小题3:Why did the author want to make friends with the younger musician?
    A．He is more active than the others.
    B．He can earn more than the others.
    C．His attitude is more positive than the others.
    D．He has more things to do than the others.
    小题4:By doing the exercise mentioned in Para. 7, you can________.
    A．improve your ability to make friends
    B．make the right kind of friends for sure
    C．develop a better relationship with your friends
    D．make some new friends with similar interests
    小题5:We can get the following information from the passage EXCEPT________.
    A．the younger musician is a positive person and would be a good friend
    B．one should avoid making friends with people having lots of difficulties
    C．the exercise can help you keep close to really helpful friends
    D．one will start complaining if one spends too much time with negative people

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

    There’s been a lot of talk about white-and-blue collar（衣领） workers, and you may have even heard of gold collar workers, but lately a new color of collar is making its way into China’s urban vernacular(土话)—green. Green collars say no when work is life and life is work. They choose to get out of the fast lane(车道), and explore new ways of living “green”.
    Living green doesn’t mean someone is working as an environmentalist, biologist or scientist. Instead it is more of a lifestyle choice. A typical green collar is well educated like a white-collar but physically tough like a blue-collar, likely born in the 70s or 80s of the last century and living in one of China’s big cities, with a monthly income well above 5,000 yuan(about US $700).
    The life of a green collar may go something like this: Turn off the mobile phone after work, eat only healthy food rich in vitamins, go on hikes every weekend, and like to help the underprivileged.
    Green collars even have their own club. In Beijing, the Green Collar Club is for people who share a “be happy, healthy and helpful” spirit. The club often holds charity parties and uses the donations for environmental protection and poverty relief projects in China.
    “They are successful in their careers, but do not miss the pleasures in life. They have a lot of money, but do not fall slave to it.” said Zuo Shiguang, one of the founding members of the club.
    小题1:What is the passage mainly about?
    A．Differences between white-and-blue collars and green collars.
    B．The increasing awareness(意识) of environmental protection.
    C．New trends of life in China’s big cities.
    D．The lifestyle of green collars.
    小题2:Green collars are living green because _________.
    A．they have a large income to use
    B．they refuse to live an unhealthy life
    C．they spend a lot of money and time in the open air
    D．they devote themselves to environmental protection
    小题3:What’s Zuo Shiguang’s attitude towards green collars?
    A．Appreciative.B．Doubtful.C．Negative(否定的).D．Neutral(中立的).
    小题4:The underlined part “the underprivileged” probably refers to those who are_________.
    A．in heavy polluted areas B．in faraway places
    C．in a poor state of education D．in unfavourable(不利的) conditions

    Donna is 19 years old and loves animals, which is why I’m always happy to leave my dog with her when I go on holiday. Donna also helps to train hunting dogs, but recently, her boyfriend told me, she returned home from a farm in tears after being told to hit some dogs.
    “She wasn’t being asked to hit them because they didn’t behave well,” he said. “She was told to punch these puppies with a closed fist simply to let them know who is the boss,” Donna refused. Good for Donna. In my view, you hit an animal for only two reasons: as a way to teach it an important lesson to protect it from danger, such as not into the road; or because you like hurting animals.
    Last summer, I attended a horse race. I don’t know much about horses, but I was alarmed when I saw a horse with a huge ulcer (溃疡) on its legs. “Surely this horse won’t race?” I asked. I was very surprised that nobody in the crowd seemed concerned.
    The horse began the race, but later it fell heavily. It had broken its leg. The next thing I saw was its dead body in a bag, being driven past. No one seemed to care, except those who had bet on it. I know people care for horse racing, but do they really care for horses? I doubt it.
    Oh, but it’s a tradition, I hear you say. Wouldn’t the world be a boring place if we didn’t occasionally hit, shoot and chase animals? Traditions are made by man and can be unmade. It was once acceptable to kill servants when their master died, to visit the mental hospitals to laugh at the patients or to watch public execution (执行死刑).
    Nor should it be forgotten that in our progress to a more civilized world, animals have played an important role: they have fed us, carried us, worked for us, rescued us, died for us and sometimes just saved us from loneliness. Surely by now they deserve our kindness. At the very least, they deserve our respect.
    小题1:Donna was asked to hit the young dogs because ________.
    A．they misbehaved
    B．their owner disliked them
    C．people on the farm enjoy hurting them
    D．it was a way to train them to obey people
    小题2:What does the underlined word in paragraph 2 probably mean?
    A．strikeB．strokeC．scoldD．pump
    小题3:What is the author’s purpose in telling the readers the story about the horse?
    A．To explain the traditional horse race to readers.
    B．To prove that the weak horse can’t win in the race.
    C．To show that animals are treated unfairly by humans.
    D．To say that people care more for horses than horse racing.
    小题4:Which of the following is NOT true?
    A．People no longer watch killing criminals in public.
    B．The author cannot accept anyone who hits the animals.
    C．It was a traditional practice to kill servants for their dead master.
    D．The author thinks it is possible to change the traditions made by man.
    小题5:What’s the best title of the passage?
    A．No One Cares for Animals Nowadays.
    B．Let’s Protect the Endangered Animals.
    C．Show Animals the Respect They Deserve.
    D．The Stories Between Animals and People.

    Reseachers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately juage 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by looking at the person’s shoes．“Shoes convey useful information about their wearers，’’the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality．
    Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style，cost，color and condition of someone’s shoes．In the study，63 University of Kansas researchers looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study’s participants．Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes，and then filled out a personality questionnaire．
    Some of the results were expected：People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes，and flashier shoes were typically worn by outgoing people．However，some of the more specific results are strange enough．For example，“practical and functional’’ shoes were generally worn by more “pleasant" people，while ankle boots were more linked with ‘‘aggressive’’ personalities．The strangest of all may be that those who wore‘ ‘uncomfortable looking” shoes tend to have “calm” personalities．And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take extreme care of them，you may suffer from “attachment anxiety"，spending lots of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance．There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal(主张变革的)types wearing “shabbier and less expensive” shoes．
    The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personalities，but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were showing the deep side of their personalities．
    小题1:What does this text mainly tell us?
    A．Shoes Call hide people’s real personalities．
    B．Shoes convey false information about the wearer．
    C．People’s personalities call be judged by their shoes．
    D．People know little about their personalities．
    小题2:The participants were asked to      
    A．provide pictures of their shoes
    B．look at pictures of different shoes
    C．design a personality questionnaire
    D．hand in their commonly worn shoes
    小题3:Which of the results is beyond people’s expectation?
    A．Wealthy people often wear expensive shoes．
    B．Pleasant people like wearing uncomfortable shoes．
    C．Aggressive people are likely to wear"ankle boots．
    D．Fashion shoes are typically worn by outgoing people．
    小题4:People suffering from“attachment anxiety” tend to      
    A．wear strange shoesB．worry about their appearance
    C．have a calm characterD．become a political leader
    小题5:The author wrote the text in order to      
    A．inform us of a new studyB．introduce a research method
    C．teach how to choose shoesD．describe different personalitie
