AToo many people want others to be their friends, but they don't give friendship back. That is why some friendships don't last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven't been honest, you may lose your friend's trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with each other. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend's place so that you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.1.Some friendships don't last long because _____.A. there are too many people who want to make friendsB. some people receive friendship but don't give friendship backC. those who give others friendship receive friendship from othersD. they don't know friendship is something serious2.

In the third paragraph, the underlined word they refers to (指) _____.A. generosity and friendshipB. generosity and sharingC. your ideas and feelingsD. your clothesBIf you go into the forest with friends,stay with them. If you don‘t,you may get lost. If you get lost,this is what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends—let them find you. You can help them find you by staying in one place. There is another way to help your friends or other people to find you. You can shout or whistle three times. Stop. Then shout or whistle three times again. Any signal given three times is a call for help. Keep up shouting or whistling. Always three times together. When people hear you,they will know that you are not just making a noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They will give you two shouts or two whistles. When a signal is given twice,it is an answer to a call for help. If you don‘t think that you will get help before night comes,try to make a little house with branches. Make yourself a bed with leaves and grass. When you need some water,you have to leave your little branch house to look for it. Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk in order to go back again easily. When you are lost,the most important thing to do is to stay in one place.5.Which signal is a call for help?A.shouting here and thereB.crying twiceC.shouting or whistling three times togetherD. whistling every where in the forest6.When you hear two shouts or two whistles,you know that ____________________.A. someone is afraid of an animalB. people will come to help youC. someone needs helpD. something terrible will happen7.What‘s the meaning of the underlined sentence?A.

He moved from Kentucky to Indiana when I was seven. We reached our new home about the time the state came into the Union. It was a wild area, with many bears and other wild animals still in the woods. I grew up there. There were some so-called schools, but what was required of a teacher never went beyond “reading, writing, and adding.” If a stranger supposed to understand Latin happened to live for a time in the area, he was looked on as wizard (奇才). There was simply nothing to excite a desire for education. Of course, when I grew up, I did not know much. Still, somehow, I could read, write, and add, but that was all. The advance I have now made is on this store of education, which I have picked up under the pressure of necessity.16.When the writer was a child ____ .A. his grandfather died in the state of KentuckyB. his family settled down in the countryside of IndianaC.
