He cut the potatoes very thin and cooked them in hot oil. They were so crunchy and George was sure that the man would refuse to eat them. Instead, the man loved them. He even 8 (order) more.

Now, do you know 9 invented the potato chips? It's George White! He later set up his own restaurant. He named it George's House. He put baskets of his potato chips on all the tables. They made his restaurant a very popular place.

【3】to

【4】about

【5】angrily

【6】because

【7】usual

【8】ordered

【9】who

【10】favorite

【解析】

【1】inventions;此处考查名词的复数形式,此句缺主语,故填名词形式,前面有some,而且invention是可数名词,故填inventions。

【2】a;这里的a表示数量,这个饭馆的名字在前面已经写出不需要特指用the,故填a。

【3】to;此句的意思是很多高层阶级的人来到这里是为了感受他的烹饪,表示目的用to do st,故填to。

【4】about;固定搭配:complain about抱怨某事,故填about

【5】angrily;此句主谓宾都不缺,这里的副词代表George的一种状态,故填angrily

【6】because;考查连词:上句顾客把炸土豆退还到厨房和下句它们还不够脆是因果关系,故填because

【7】usual;形容词修饰后面的名词way,故填usual

【8】ordered;考查时态:这篇文章发生在过去,全篇使用一般过去时。故填ordered

【9】who;know后面接宾语从句,从句中缺少主语,而且后面的回答是人名。故填who

【10】favorite;形容词修饰后面的food,但不填favorable的原因是,favorable表示同意的,好的,优惠的,而favorite表示最喜爱的,要注意这两个形容词的区别,故填favorite

Are you new to experiencing relationships? Well, let me give you some advice on having a healthy and possibly long-term relationship.

【1Do not hide things from them; do not lie. Don’t be afraid to say things that aren’t very flattering about yourself. Getting them to trust you is the most important element in any relationship. If there’s no trust, there’s nothing there. So please be honest and they’ll learn to open up to you.

Make sure you give them respect. Now respect isn’t just simply treating her or him nicely. There’s a lot more to it. You have to learn to adjust to their liking. 2 Don’t just think about yourself ; think about what your partner needs out of it as well.

3Always be willing to help them and give them honesty and positivity at the same time. Make them feel you are someone they can really count on. This is an important step in a relationship.

Make sure you have a good sense of humor with them. Laughter is the key to happiness. Laugh a lot with them, and joke with them. Laughter may seem silly, but it’s the secret to a lot in life. It will keep the sparks alive. 4

Make sure the communication is good. This goes along with trust, but always communicate how you feel, even if it’s something that upsets you. Instead of screaming, talk to them. 5It’s important to communicate this to them, not to keep it bottled up.

A. If they did somethng that made you unhappy, tell them about it in a respectful manner.

B. Basically, learn to study your partners’moods, wants and needs.

C .Don’t start to neglect them and make them feel unwanted.

D. Make sure you are helpful to your partner.

E. Be an honest person with them.

F. Laughter keeps the relationship strong and lasting.

G. Show them your personality.

【题目】

To forgive is a virtue(美德), but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.

【1】 . Try the following steps:

Calm yourself. 2 . You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.

Don’t wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. 3 . Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.

Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.

4 . If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.

Don’t forget to forgive yourself. 5 . But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don’t do it.

A. Why should you forgive?

B. How should you start to forgive?

C. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.

D. Try to see things from your offender’s angle(角度)

E. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.

F. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.

G. If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.
