People just say those things to make you feel welcome. It is better to telephone before visiting someone at home. If you receive(收到) a written invitation to an event that says RSVP, you should reply to let the person who sent the invitation know whether or not you plan to go. You should never accept an invitation unless you really plan to go. You may refuse by saying, Thank you for inviting me, but I will not be able to come. If, after accepting, you are unable to go, be sure to tell those who are expecting you as soon as possible that you will not be there for some reasons. Although it is not necessarily expected that you give a gift to your host, it is polite to do so, especially if you have been invited for a meal. Flowers, chocolate, or a small gift are all good. A thank-you note or telephone call after the visit is also polite and is a good way to thank for the invitation. （1）What can you do when an English friend says, Drop in any time? A .

Its a monster!” They sent for all the doctors in the country and ordered them to prepare some medicine for her.“When she drinks your medicine, she must grow to the right size and have hair and teeth,” the king said, “If you dont do this, youll have a beating.”The doctors thought it impossible, but they dared not say anything against the kings order. Just then and old doctor stepped forward. “Oh, we shall certainly obey your order,” he said, “but it takes time. We have to dig a mineral from the KunLun Mountains when the snow melts for the second time. The snow melts on those mountains only once in six years.

In some rare cases it might be right to follow the crowd, but in most cases this can be a big mistake. In fact there are reasons why we shouldnt follow the crowd blindly. According to a study, people often follow the crowd when they arent sure about the direction they should take. This means a large number of people could be following others without understanding whats right and whats wrong! This makes more people follow and as a result most people move in a certain direction even if it isnt right.A man who wants to be successful always hopes for others guidance and he usually follows the same path of most people, but the question this man never asks himself is: are all of those people successful? Of course not! If you want to follow a crowd, then follow a successful one. However, in real life youll only find one successful person among hundreds of people, and thats why following the crowd makes no sense at all.Most people act emotionally (感情用事地) without thinking wisely. If you always follow others because theyre greater than you in number, then sooner or later youll discover that youre taking emotional decisions you might regret later.However, should we never follow the crowd? No. Im not trying to say you should never follow the crowd, but instead Im just asking you to think wisely before you take a decision. If you find others are right, there is no problem in following them, but if you have doubts about the direction theyre moving in, dont follow them blindly.（1）According to the passage, most people like to follow others because_. A . they feel it kind of safeB . they dont want to be differentC . they believe they take the right directionD . they want to make good impressions on people（2）Which is right according to the authors opinions? A . It is wrong to follow other people.B . It takes much time to think wisely.C . You shouldnt be sorry for what you have done.D . You should use your brain before following others.（3）What is the text mainly about? A . Results of following others.B . Reasons for not following others blindly.C . Advantages of making wise decisions.D . Ways of finding successful people to follow.（4）Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? A . B . C . D . 5. （8分） Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, Happiness depends upon (取决于)ourselves. In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions（建议） to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future. For example, getting into college or getting a good jobthat we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy lifes simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.（1）The best title of the passage is_.A .
