Now we know that getting along with other people is something that we can work at. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better. One way is being unselfish, not wanting everything from our friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad points in other people. It is surprising how successful this treasure hunt can be.You do not have to be spineless (优柔寡断的) in order to be popular. In fact, you will be liked or loved if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights (正当行为). But do it politely and pleasantly. Being friendly and polite to your group, to other people and to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you is one way to develop a good character.You cannot expect to be perfect, and you must learn not to be unhappy when you make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed if he does not refuse to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged (灰心丧气的) when they know in themselves qualities that they do not likeselfishness, laziness, and other unpleasant qualities. Just remember that we all have some of these faults (缺点) and have to fight against them.At the same time, it is important to remember that while you are probably no worse than others, the best way to be happy is to think yourself above other people. When something is wrong, it is good sense to try to make it right. Perhaps you do not like a teacher or a classmate. Try to see why, and look at yourself, too, to be sure that you are not doing anything to make that person dislike you. Some day, things may turn out all right when you have to learn to get along the best with the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you cannot change.（1）One of the two ways the writer suggests for us to get along with others is to _. A . work hard at everything we doB . enjoy the best share of everythingC . look for treasure in order to be successfulD . pay more attention to their strong points（2）If a person wants to be popular, he or she has to _. A . be polite and friendlyB . give up some rightsC . get away arguing with other peopleD . be ready to change his or her character（3）There is no person but someone should be blamed if he or she _. A . is modest and generousB . is selfish and lazyC . does not draw a lesson from his or her own faultD . is very happy with unpleasant quality（4）The purpose for the writer to write the passage is to _. A . train you to be perfectB . show you the way to be happyC . tell you how to act when you dislike a personD . teach you how to be popular among your friends26. （10分）阅读理解THREE CENTURIES OF HOAXES(骗局;恶作剧)!A THINKING MACHINEIn 1769, long before computers were invented, a man from Hungary(匈牙利)built a wonderful machine that could play chess very well. It made people all over Europe happy and beat nearly everyone it played against .including famous people like French leader Napoleon Bonaparte, and scientist and inventor Yenjamin Franklin. For years, many people believed that it was truly a thinking machine. There were people who said it was a hoax, but could not prove it or explain how it worked. About 85 years later, the secret was finally found.

It said that all the animals in the Central Park Zoo had escaped and were running around the city. It said the police were working to save people, but 27 people had already been killed, and 200 people hurt. It warned everyone to stay at home to avoid the danger. Many people in New York were terrified, and did as the paper said. If only they had read the final words of the article, which said; Not one word of it is true. Not a single act described has taken place. It was just a hoax. The story was made up by Thomas Connery, aneditor at The Herald, who wanted to draw attention to the poor condition of cages in the zoo.ROSIE THE RUNNERThe first woman to cross the finishing line of the 1980 Boston Marathon(马拉松)was 23-year-old Rosie Ruiz. However, as she climbed the stairs to receive her prize, people started to become suspicious(怀疑的).She didnt seem to be tired at all. Furthermore, none of the other runners remembered seeing her, and her picture never appeared in photos or TV broadcasts of the race.

Scientists say theres a good chance you do.This comes from a new study published in a magazine. Researchers from Israel found that our given names may have something to do with our facial appearances.Lead writer Yonat Zwebner of a university, along with her team, did eight different experiments in Israel and France. The different experiments were set up to answer two main questions: whether people can correctly guess a persons name based only on a photo of a face and what is behind this matching effect.During the experiments, researchers asked students to look at photos of peoples faces and guess each persons name from a list of four choices. They correctly guessed the right name 38 percent of the time, which was better than the 25 percent of a random（随机地）guess.Whats more, when the faces the students looked at came from within their own country, they were able to best match the faces to the names. French students were better at matching only French names and faces while Israeli students were better at matching only Hebrew names and Israeli faces.Researchers believe it is possible that people change their appearances without paying attention to it, to match their names. One study especially backed up this idea, showing that a hairstyle, something that can be changed by people easily, was enough to guide others in correctly guessing their names.“Earlier research has shown there are cultural stereotypes（老套观念）carried by names, including how someone should look. For example, people are more likely to imagine a person named Bob to have a rounder face than a person named Tim. We believe these stereotypes can, over time, influence peoples facial appearances,” Zwebner said.The results of the experiments may even make parents think twice when choosing a name for their children.“If a name can influence appearance, it can influence many other things. This research opens an important direction that may suggest how parents should consider better the names for their children,” said Zwebner, who recently had a baby herself.“As parents, it was really difficult for us to name our 12-day-old daughter as we know the meanings of names.”（1）One of the purposes of the experiments is to _. A . give the students a chance to know each otherB . explain what influences our facial appearancesC . find out different characteristics carried by different namesD . see if people can correctly guess a persons name based only on a photo of a face（2）People could match the faces to the names more easily _. A . when they did a random guessB . when the faces are from other countriesC . when the faces are from their own countryD . when they have more knowledge themselves（3）The underlined part backed up in Paragraph 6 most probably means “_”. A . supportedB . changedC . comparedD . cancelled（4）Paragraph 6 and Paragraph 7 are mainly to show _. A . the results of changing namesB . names have something to do with appearancesC . the importance of cultural stereotypes carried by namesD . the importance of a hairstyle in guessing different looks（5）According to Zwebner, we know that _. A . facial appearances may influence namesB . we shouldnt think of others just according to their namesC . a name may influence many things and should be well chosenD . we should pay less attention to the meanings of names and be ourselves五、 选词填空（词汇运用） (共1题；共10分)28. （10分）根据短文内容，用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空。每词限用一次。 for least health quick dinnerHealthy eating habits are important.
