  注意：此答案要写在答题纸上

Making friends is a skill like most skills. It improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take some action. You must first go where there are people. 56 

Joining a club or a group, talking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier.Or join someone in some activity.

57 After all meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it's human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown. Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are judging us, finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. 58   Try to accept yourself as you are, and try to put the other person at ease. You'll both feel more comfortable.

Try to act self-confident even if you don't feel that way. When you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom,walk tall and straight, look directly at other people and smile, and say something. 59 

Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person--friendship is based on mutual (相互的）liking and  "give and take".   60 

A.Don't wait for the other person to start a conversation.

B.But don't forget that they must be feeling the same way.

C.It depends on one's character to make good friends.

D.You won't make friends staying home alone.

E.Many people are nervous when talking to new people.

第二节：根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

   Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.

  71 Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.

For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷尔蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. 72.

Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.

 73 They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “74Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”

  Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. 75

A. In general ,the person feels excited and ready to act.

B. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.

C. Expressing anger violently is more harmful than repressing it.

D. Anger may cause you a cancer.

E. Do not express your anger while angry.

F. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time.

G. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger.
