“No man is an island” is a well-known line from John Donne’s Devotion. It was written more than three hundred years ago. Even now people still agree with him. No one can live a completely lonely life. Without other people, life will become empty and sad. We all need to have friends.
For some of us, although making friends is not difficult, feeling shy, we may not want to make the first move. It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.
There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People, written in 1936, is the most famous. This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best seller. It was later put into 28 languages.
Dale Carnegie’s advice seems to be simple, but can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book:
Be friendly and polite.
Always greet with a smile. Begin with “Excuse me” or “Would you please” when you want to ask somebody. Remember to say “Thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.
Go out of your way to be nice.
Find some time to do special things for other people. Making some soup for a sick neighbor may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your neighbor feel a lot better.
Remember names.
They say that the sweetest music to a person’s ears is the sound of his or her own name.
Be open-minded.
Try to understand other people’s ways and ideas and learn something from them.
Listen patiently.
When someone is talking to you, look at him or her, listen carefully and say something when necessary.
1.What does the underlined sentence “No one can live a completely lonely life.” mean?
A. No one can live a hard life. B. No one can live without difficulty.
C. No one can live alone. D. No one can live on an island.
2.Why do some of us find it not easy to make friends?
A. Because we are afraid of making bad friends.
B. Because we are shy to take the first action.
C. Because we feel sure that we already have enough friends.
D. Because we feel worried that we won’t be able to keep our friends.
3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. John Donne learned something from Dale Carnegie.
B. Friends are always friends.
C. Few people bought Carnegie’s book.
D. The writer of this passage agrees with John Donne and Dale Carnegie.

Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history. Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. It’s a great pity. It is reported that about 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.
Therefore, we must take care of the animals around us. Once they are gone, they will never come back again. Animals are more than just beautiful or interesting. They are more than a source of food. Every animal has its importance to nature. Destroying one kind of animal can cause many problems. For example, when farmers kill large numbers of hawks(鹰), their eat rats and mice, with fewer or no hawks to keep down their numbers, rats and mice multiply quickly.
Luckily, many people have realized this and have begun to do something to protect animals. Some groups put on performances to make people know the importance of protecting animals. Some raise money to help set up more zoos to keep them safe. Some try to get the government to pass laws on protecting the animals in danger. As a result, the number of these animals is growing.

I learned about life from an ant farm. When I was seven years old, my family created one. First, we put
clean sand in a thin glass box, and then we waited for the live ants to arrive. Shortly after the chilly ants were dropped into the glass structure, they got to work making tunnels. I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to
do. After hours of staring, I realized that the ants had assigned jobs.
With my mom ' s help, I kept a diary of what happened each day and named the ants. One day an incident struck
the ant farm. The pages of the diary, still wrinkled(皱巴巴) where tear drops fell, indicate the great loss.
'I had put my face so close to the structure that I accidentally knocked it over and all the tunnels caved in.
Although the ants survived(幸存) their earthquake, one by one they began to die.
I was terrified as I watched them give up their tunnel-building to carry the bodies to a comer of the farm.
My mother reported that the ants were dying of "frustration." They simply could not stand the reality that their
tunnels had been destroyed.
Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm. Mom had hoped it would teach me about the
natural world, but it taught me much more. Over the years, I came to realize the ants were a study in the benefits
of teamwork. Working together, they were able to create an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that
they should be admired for their hard work. Day in and day out, each labored at their task.
The ant farm showed that teamwork and perseverance are indeed two key ingredients to success. But there
was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently: Adversity is a natural part of life, and must be accepted. Unlike the ants, humans cannot give up when they face disappointment. Unlike the ants, we have to
realize that if a tunnel caves in, we just have to build another. Giving up, I say, is not a choice.
1.The family created an ant farm in a glass box because it was easy _____.
A. for the ants to live in B. to get sun light in
C. to keep the sand clean D. for the boy to observe
2.The word assigned in the first paragraph is close to _______
A. quit B. completed C. shared D. organized
3.What made the pages of the diary wrinkled?

4.What did the writer finally realize?
A. His mother taught him much more.
B. People should admire anyone for their hard work.
C. Humans cannot give up when facing adversity.
D. Perseverance is the only way to success.
5.Which statement is true according to the passage?
A. The writer broke the glass box because to the passage?
B. The arts died one by one because the tunnels were destroyed.
C. Unlike people, teamwork is not so important for the ants.
D. Giving up is a good way when we meet trouble
