How to be more friendly and social
If you tend to be shy, it can feel uncomfortable to put yourself out there socially. 36 You can make the extra effort to be more friendly and open to others, while still keeping your own personality.
37 The key to connecting to other people is showing interest in them. When you’re truly interested in someone else’s thoughts, feelings, experiences, stories, and opinions, they’ ll like you for it. You’ll make far more friends by showing your interest rather than trying to get people interested in you.
Be genuine (真诚的). 38 If you’re just pretending to listen or care, others will pick up on it.
Rather than promoting greater connection, your efforts will likely have the opposite effect. No one likes to be manipulated (摆布). If you’re not actually interested in the other person, then stop trying to connect.
Pay attention. 39 By paying close attention to what they say and how they interact, you’ll quickly get to know them. 40 Don’t ignore the details, such as remembering someone’s preferences, the stories they’ve told you, and what’s going on in their life.
A. Faking (伪装) takes talent.
B. Focus on others, not yourself.
C. Little things go a long way.
D. Getting to know them is the key.
E. Make an effort to truly listen to the other person.
F. Showing interest in others can’t be faked.
G. But you don’t have to be naturally outgoing or the life of the party to make new friends.

Things to Keep in Mind before Moving to New York City

Learn about the culture, how to deal with people, taxi drivers, manners, or lack of manners that is exhibited there, and so on. It is always best to know what exactly you are getting into rather than landing there and getting a complete shock.
Before you buy your clothes or shoes, you always try them out first, right? In the same way, before you move to New York, you need to visit it for a couple of days, just do that you can see what the city is like. 2.
The best and worst thing about New York is that this city is controlled by money. 3. Then, you need to set aside (留出) an amount for emergencies only.

Finding a neighbourhood in New York is the key to actually enjoying your stay there. If you are moving to the city due to work, then look for living accommodations close to your workplace. 4. Do you see yourself living in a place that is quiet, like the Upper West Side or East Side, or do you want noisy setups, like the East Village, Lower East Side, or West Village?

Dear Editors,
On my way to work every morning I drive by a farm where I can see some horses off in the distance in the woods. They are there every single morning no matter how cold or rainy or windy it is. There is a shed(牲口棚)on the farm, but it doesn’t look to me that the horses are ever taken into the shed. Is this right? I don’t think horses should be treated like this.
Sam
Dear Sam,
Thanks for taking an interest in these horses. Problems about the care of horses are different from cats and dogs. Think of wild horses that spend their whole lives outdoors finding whatever food and shelter(遮蔽物)they can on their own. The point is that horses don’t require as much shelter as a lot of other farm animals. However, that doesn’t mean that they don’t need some shelter.
It is hard to tell from your letter whether the situation for these horses is unacceptable. Above all, do you know the people who own the horses well enough to just talk to them as a neighbor and express your concern (关注)? Maybe they will tell you that the horses do go in the shed at night.
If direct contact (联系)is not a choice and you can see that the horses’ situation is poor, then call 911, report the situation and ask law enforcement officers (执法官员) to look into it.
If you just can’t see enough to prove such a report, call the Oswego Court Humane Society on 207-1070 for help from the Large Animal Assistance Project (LAAP). A volunteer from the project will help solve the problem.
Speaking of volunteer assistance, since you appear to be a horse lover, why not talk to the LAAP about volunteer opportunities for you? It’s big job, but totally rewarding, and the project always needs knowledgeable horse people to help.
1.Sam writes to the editors in order to____________.
A. ask how to keep horses in changeable weathers.
B. discuss whether some horses are badly treated
C. express his strong interest in keeping horses
D. describe some beautiful horses he has seen
2.Compared with cats and dogs, horses ________.
A. need less shelter
B. prefer living indoors
C. can predict bad weathers
D. like finding food by themselves
3.What do the editors advise Sam to do first?
A. To call 911 for help
B. To find a volunteer from the LAAP
C. To contact the horses’ owner directly.
D. To call the Oswego County Humane Society.
4.In the last paragraph of the second letter, the editors_______.
A. hope Sam can be more knowledgeable
B. stress the importance of volunteering
C. encourage Sam to join the LAAP
D. suggest Sam change his job

Sudha Chandran, a classical dancer from India, had to have her right leg cut after a car accident.She was also cut off on her bright career road.
However, she didn’t stop struggling. In the painful three months that followed, Sudha met a doctor who had an operation on her leg.

Sudha knew that she believed in herself and could realize her dream,so she began her brave journey back to the world of dancing — learning to balance, bend, stretch,walk, and turn.

Once Dr. Mellinkoff invited me to join him at the hospital to discuss interesting cases with his students. The case at hand was a Guatemalan man, aged 34, who had a fever and many other medical problems. His condition was not improving, and there was not much hope he would live.
Dr. Mellinkoff asked to see the patient. He introduced himself in Spanish and, in a very gentle voice, asked how he felt. The patient smiled and said everything was all right. Then the doctor asked if he was able to eat. The patient said that he had no desire to eat.
“Are you getting food you like?”
The patient said nothing.
“Do you get the kind of food you have at home?”
The answer was no.
The doctor put his hand on the man’s shoulder and his voice was very soft.
“If, you had food that you liked, would you eat it?”
“Yes, yes.” the patient said.
The change in the patient’s appearance couldn’t have been more obvious. Nothing was said, but it was easy to tell that a message had been sent and had also been received.
Later, the doctor asked why the Guatemalan man wasn’t getting food he could eat. One of the students said, “We all know how difficult it is to get the kitchen to make special meals.”
“Suppose, ” the doctor replied, “you felt a certain medicine was absolutely necessary but that our hospital didn’t carry it, would you accept defeat or would you insist the hospital meet your request?”
“I would probably insist, ” the student said.
“Very well, ” the doctor said. “You might want to try the same method in the kitchen. It won’t be easy, but I can help you. Meanwhile, let’s get some food inside this man as fast as possible, and stay with it. Or he’ll be killed by hunger. By the way, there must be someone among you who can speak Spanish. If we want to make real progress, we need to be able to talk with him.”
Three weeks later, Dr. Mellinkoff told me that the Guatemalan man had left the hospital under his own power. It takes more than medicine to help sick people; you also have to talk to them and make them comfortable.
1.The patient had no desire to eat because ________.
A. he was not hungry
B. he was seriously ill
C. he was given special meals
D. he was not satisfied with the food
2.According to the passage, we can conclude that ________.
A. the patient was from another country
B. the patient’s illness was caused by hunger
C. Dr. Mellinkoff performed an operation on the patient
D. the hospital failed to provide the right medicine for the patient
3.Which of the following words can be used to describe Dr. Mellinkoff?
A. Cold. B. Considerate. C. Curious. D. Confident.
4.What do you think Dr. Mellinkoff wanted to tell his students in this case?
A. Doctors should know their patients’ real problems.
B. Doctors should be able to speak foreign languages.
C. Doctors should try to improve their medical skills.
D. Doctors should give more medicine to patients.

I believe that my country,Poland,is a perfect example for a place where food is particularly important. When we were little children, we began to understand how much a loaf of bread meant to our parents—to some it might sound silly but for me the custom of kissing bread before you started cutting it was simply amazing. It’s not so common nowadays to treat food that way,since you hardly ever bake your own bread. Besides, everyone would call you crazy if you tried to kiss every bread roll before you ate them! But though we no longer make our food from scratch (起点), some customs have been kept—that’s why I feel so sorry every time I have to throw any food away—even though I no longer live with my parents and nobody would blame me for this anymore!
Many people of our nation are still working as farmers, eating what they grow and harvest and therefore enjoying everything more. It’s widely known that you value more anything that needs your effort in the first place. In most homes in Poland, especially those of farmers, the whole family would try and have their meals together—extremely difficult now, but so rewarding! You can share other members’ troubles and successes, give your children some attention, or just sit down for a moment, instead of rushing through life aimlessly. Furthermore, your body,and stomach in particular will be very grateful for such a time!
In Poland, a wedding,Christmas or even a birthday is celebrated with a great meal. Women in the house get together and cook ,sometimes for a few days before the event,and the extremely good or unusual food will be remembered and widely talked about.
You cannot over-value the importance of food in the country. What’s more, almost everyone in Poland will be as interested in the topic as I am.
1.When the writer was a child, he/she _______.
A. found people were crazy about bread
B. began to realize the importance of food
C. thought that cutting bread was amazing
D. learned people hardly baked their own bread
2.The writer feels very sorry when he/she has to throw away any food because___________.
A. he/she makes food from scratch
B. his/her parents would blame him/her
C. some customs still have effect on him/her
D. many people are still working hard as farmers
3.From the text, we can learn that, in Poland, ________.
A. most meals can be interesting topics for a long time
B. the whole family often have meals together nowadays
C. it’s common for women to get together to cook for a few days
D. family members can know more about each other by having meals together

Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.
If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants. Flowering plants can make seed. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores (胚芽). Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.
1.The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______.
A. plants are important for life
B. plants cannot grow without air
C. there are many plants in the world
D. we can’t live without water
2.Plants can make food from _______.
A. flower, water and air B. water, sunlight and air
C. air, water and soil D. air, sun and light
3.What can we infer from the passage?
A. Of all living things animals are most important.
B. Spores are seeds.
C. All fruits of flowering plants have seeds.
D. Without plants, man will die out.
4.This passage may be taken from ______.
A. a medicine book B. a novel
C. a science magazine D. an experiment report
