    My Best Enemy

    　 Once again, I was in a new school. So was a girl in my class named Lisa. That’s where the similarities ended.

    　 I was tall and she was small. My thick black hair had been recently cut short into an untidy style. Her natural blonde hair flowed to her waist and looked great. I was 12 and one of the oldest in the class while she was 11 and the youngest. I was awkward and shy. She wasn’t. I couldn’t stand her, considering her my enemy. But she liked me and wanted to be friends.

    　 One day, she invited me over and I said yes—I was too shocked to answer any other way. My family had moved six times in six years, and I had never managed to develop any friendships. But this girl who wore the latest fashions wanted me to go home with her after school.

    She lived in a fun part of town that had two pizza places, an all-night bookstore, a movie theater and a park. As we walked from the school bus stop through her neighborhood, I tried to guess which house might be hers. Was it the white one with the perfect lawn or the three –story house with a front porch? I got very surprised when she led me into an old apartment building. She lived on the fourth floor in a two-room place with her mother, her stepfather, her two brothers and her sister.

    When we got into the room she shared with her sister, she took out a big case of Barbies, which was my next surprise. I had never played with them. We sat on the floor, laughing as we made up crazy stories about the Barbies. We found out that we both wanted to be writers when we were older and both had wild imaginations. We had a great day that afternoon.

    Lisa was loved by the whole neighborhood. The bookstore owners lent her fashion magazines; the movie theater gave her free tickets…. Soon I was included in her magic world. We slept over at each other’s houses and spent every free moment together.

    Lisa, my first real friend since childhood, helped me get through the rough years of early adolescence（青春期）and taught me an amazing and very surprising thing about making friends: your worst enemy can turn out to be your best friend.

    56．The writer and Lisa were similar in the way that　　　　　 .

    　　 A．they were both new students　 B．they had the same hair styles

    　　　 C．they were both tall　　　　　 D．they were of the same age

    57．In the passage the writer described Lisa as a girl who was　　　 .

    　　　 A．awkward and shy　　　　　　　　　　　 B．rich and happy

    　　　 C．quiet and lonely　　　　　　　　　　　　　 D．friendly and lovely

    58．Which of the following did the writer learn form Lisa?

    　　 A．How to make up stories.　　　　　　　 B．How to deal with enemies.

    　　 C．How to make friends.　　　　　　　　　 D．How to live a better life.

    Communications technologies are far from equal when it comes to conveying the truth．The first study to compare honesty across a range of communication media has found that people are twice as likely to tell lies in phone conversations as they are in emails．The fact that emails are automatically recorded—and can come back to puzzle you---appears to be the key to the finding．

           Jeff Hancock of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, asked 30 students to keep a communications diary for a week．In it they noted the number of conversations or email exchanges they had lasting more than 10 minutes, and confessed to how many lies they told．Hancock then worked out the number of lies per conversation for each medium．He found that lies made up 14 per cent of emails, 21 percent of instant messages, 27 per cent of face-to-face interactions and an astonishing 37 percent of phone calls．

           His results to be presented at the conference on human-computer interaction in Vienna, Austria, in April, have surprised psychologists．Some expected emailers to be the biggest liars, reasoning that because deception makes people uncomfortable, the indirect contact of emailing would make it easier to lie．Others expected people to lie more in face-to-face exchanges because we are most practiced at that form of communication．

           But Hancock says it is also crucial whether a conversation is being recorded and could be reread, and whether it occurs in real time．People appear to be afraid to lie when they know the communication could later be used to hold them to account, he says．This is why fewer lies appear in email than on the phone．

           People are also more likely to lie in real time---in an instant message or phone call, say---than if they have time to think of a response, says Hancock．He found many lies are spontaneous（脱口而出） responses to an unexpected demand, such as: “Do you like my dress?”

           Hancock hopes his research will help companies work out the best ways for their employees to communicate．For instance, the phone might be the best medium for sales where employees are encouraged to stretch the truth．But, given his result, work assessment where honesty is a priority, might be best done using email．

    Hancock’s study focuses on _______．

          A．the consequences of lying in various communications media

          B．the success of communications technologies in conveying ideas

          C．people are less likely to lie in instant messages

          D．people’s honesty levels across a range of communications media

    Hancock’s research finding surprised those who believed that _____．

          A．people are less likely to lie instant messages

          B．people are unlikely to lie in face-to-face interactions

          C．people are most likely to lie in email communication

          D．people are twice as likely to lie in phone conversations

    According to the passage, why are people more likely to tell the truth through certain media of communication?

          A．They are afraid of leaving behind traces of their lies

          B．They believe that honesty is the best policy

          C．They tend to be relaxed wh en using those media

          D．They are most practised at those forms of communication

    It can be inferred from the passage that ________．

          A．honesty should be encouraged in interpersonal communications

          B．suitable media should be chosen for different communication purposes

           C．more employers will use emails to communicate with their employees

          D．email is now the dominant medium of communication within a company

    Great Minds Reminded of Mom

    After a long, exhausting day, a friend of mine, Allen, headed home. On the road, he passed an elderly woman who was standing by a car with a flat tire. If that were his mother, he thought, he would want someone to help her. With a tired sigh, he turned around and drove back.

    Just as he reached the stranded woman, a truck pulled up and a burly farmer got out. "Kindof reminds you of your mom, too?" the man asked as the two of them pitched in together to change the tire for the woman.

    阅读理解。
            Big football matches are always exciting affairs. Besides the action on the field, the noise the crowd
    makes really creates the unique atmosphere. At this summer’s World Cup, you can be sure that every
    country’s fans will be in full voice, supporting their teams.
            The football chant(口号) is as old as the sport itself. It’s a way for fans to express their support for
    their team. It’s common for the noise of supporters to provide the encouragement for a team to win a
    match. Most agree that a chant is for building a great atmosphere and to support the team.
            One of the most famous football songs is the Liverpool club anthem(颂歌) You’ll Never Walk
    Alone    ，originally from a 1945 Broadway show, which was adopted by Liverpool and is sung before
    every match. It has been said that as soon as the opposite hears the song, they become aware of how
    tough winning at Anfield (Liverpool’s stadium) will be.
            The key to a good football song is that it should be simple. It has to be easy for all fans to sing along
    with. When I went to watch Beijing Guo’an last season, I could join in one chant though I could only
    speak a little Chinese. “Beijing wo ai ni,” the Guo’an fans sang - you didn’t have to be gifted to work out
    what that meant.
            At the World Cup, the first songs you’ll hear at matches will be the national anthems. Fans and
    players join together to sing the anthems before each match, and it is considered a mark of respect that
    the opposite remains silent while each team’s anthem is being sung.
            So, even though I’ll be supporting England from home in the summer, you can be sure I’ll be chanting
    at my TV: “En-ger-land, En-ger-land, En-ger-land!”
    1. From the passage we can learn that _______.
    A. a good football chant is usually very long
    B. the football chant can express support to the team
    C. the football chant appears later than football itself
    D. a fan is talented to learn foreign languages
    2. What can fans do to support their team?
    A. To kick the ball on the field.
    B. To fight with the opposition fans.
    C. To provide encouragement with chants.
    D. To donate money to the players.
    3. Why the national anthems of both the teams can be heard at the World Cup?
    A. Because it is a sign to show the respect to each other.
    B. Because it is sung for the leaders of the host country.
    C. Because it represents encouragement from their fans.
    D. Because either team senses the support from their country.
    4. Which of the following is the best title?
    A. Football - A Popular Sport
    B. National Anthems at Matches
    C. You’ll Never Walk Alone
    D. You’ll Never “Cheer” Alone
