21、Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends. But there are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town, or changed our schools or jobs. Such changes often leave us without a friend. 【1】 But for many of us, the process is difficult and requires courage. Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends.

Associate with others.

The first step to make friends is associating with people. You can go to public places to meet new people. Besides, you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places.

Start a conversation.

Starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends. 【2】 You can always start the conversation. Being able to make small talk is a very useful skill in relating (关联的) with other people.

【3】

Choosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship as these interests always bring you and your friend together. Hanging out will always be a pleasant experience.

Let it grow.

It is a good thing to stay in touch. However, try not to press your new friend with calls, messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend. 【4】

Enjoy your friendship.

The best way to enjoy your friendship is to allow your friends to be themselves. 【5】 Try not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be. Become the kind of friend you will want your friend to be.

A．Be cheerful.

B．Do things together.

C．Don't wait to be spoken to.

D．Try not to find fault with your friend.

E．Making new friends comes easy for some people.

F．For a friendship to develop you need to stay in touch.

G．So you will need to give your friend time to react to you.

22、In a world full of parenting advice, i’s easy to get trapped in the latest discipline strategy or the trending hot topics. 【1】 Creating a family motto (箴言) is one way to help you focus on the things that are most important to you, and it can also help to clarify your parenting decisions.

A family motto is not just pretty words on a page. It is a meaningful, value-packed statement or series of statements that set your family apart from everyone else. 【2】I’s deeper than that—it goes to the heart of what you want for your kids and your family.

Most parents have a vague (模糊的) idea of what they'd like to teach their children, and when they try to teach or discipline their kids, the messages come out ...vague! You know certain things are important, but in the moment, you forget or lose sight of the big picture. 【3】

【4】 It may help to fill in the blank, “In our family we are/ will...” Some families create a simple phrase that involves the main themes, while other families list the most important ones individually. Once it’s complete, write down your family motto and post it where everyone can see it.

【5】 Over time, you may find that your family motto is outdated or missing important aspects. Call another brainstorming session and work together to create a motto that involves more of your family's goals and values.

A．A family motto is a new trend.

B．It is also not some house rules or expectations.

C．Use this motto to stay focused on what you want to stress.

D．Writing a family motto helps clarify your values and goals.

E．Of course, a family motto won't solve all your parenting dilemmas.

F．Brainstorm ideas, values, goals or characteristics that are important to you.

G．These competing messages may cause you to forget your own parenting goals.

23、California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor.

The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46, 000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.

Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick McIntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has unpredictably left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources.

But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, McIntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was obvious even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development.

The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into consideration such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness (湿气) of soil, and the timing of snowmelt (雪融水).

Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factor driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air. Another important cause is earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply accessible to trees during the dry season.

【1】What do the numbers in Second paragraph suggest?

A．The habitats of big trees in California.

B．The decreasing variety of California big trees.

C．The seriousness of big-tree loss in California.

D．The size of California forests.

【2】Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees?

A．Ecological studies of forests.

B．Banning woodcutting.

C．Limiting housing development.

D．Strict fire control measures.

【3】What is a major cause of the water shortage according to McIntyre?

A．A warmer climate.

B．A longer dry season.

C．Earlier snowmelt.

D．Decreased dampness of soil.

【4】Which can be a suitable title for the text?

A．Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prevented in California Soon.

B．California’s Forests: to Be Saved.

C．California’s Forest: Where Have All the Big Trees Gone?

D．How to Protect Big Trees in California?

24、   Visitors to Britain are sometimes surprised to learn that newspapers there have such a large circulation. The “quality” newspapers are often held up as an example of impartial journalism, but the Daily Mirror and the Daily Express usually impress newspapermen even more because they both sell about four million copies every day. British families generally buy a newspaper every morning and frequently take two or three on Sundays, but the vast circulation figures obtained are not only due to the Englishman’s thirst for news.Because the newspapers are all published nationally, copies can be delivered everywhere at the same time.

Though people abroad often know the names of the national papers, they seldom realize that there is another branch of the British press which sells almost as many copies. Local newspapers have a weekly circulation of 13 million. Almost every town and country area has one. Nearly all of them hold their own finance and many of them are very profitable.

These papers are written almost entirely for readers interested in local events — births, weddings, deaths, council meetings and sports — but the content is naturally influenced by the kind of community they serve. Editors prefer to rely on a small staff of people who all know the district well. A great deal of local news is regularly supplied by clubs and churches in the neighbourhood and it does not get out of date as quickly as national news. If there is no room for it in this week’s edition, an item can sometimes be held until the following week.

The editor must never forget that the success of any newspaper depends on advertising. He is usually anxious to keep the good will of local businessmen for this reason. But if the newspaper is well written and the news items are carefully chosen to attract local readers, the businessmen are grateful for the opportunity to keep their products in the public eye.

Local newspapers do not often comment on problems of national importance and editors rarely hold with taking sides on political questions. But they can often be of service to the community in expressing public feeling on local issues. A newspaper can sometimes persuade the council to take action to provide better shopping facilities, improve transport in the area and preserve local monuments and places of interest.

【1】The Daily Mirror impresses newspapermen more because_____.

A.it has a larger circulation than many other famous papers

B.it is of better quality than many other papers

C.it is sold nationally

D.it is delivered everywhere in Britain

【2】Local papers are preferred by readers who_____.

A.are interested in news B.are much interested in local events

C.want to get news as quickly as possible D.work in churches and clubs

【3】According to the passage,businessmen would like to advertise in papers if _____.

A.the papers are well written B.the news items are carefully chosen

C.the news involves them D.the papers are popular and can attract readers

【4】The last paragraph implies(暗示)that ______.

A.local papers seldom comment on politics

B.local papers can sometimes influence policy making

C.local papers are more concerned about their own communities

D.local papers do not take sides on problems of national importance
