But in a special program in New York, adults and teenagers live together in a friendly way.Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work group. Everyone works several hours each day. They do so not just to keep busy but to find meaning and fun in work. Some teenagers work on the farms near the village. Some learn to make things like tables and chairs and to build houses. The adults teach them these skills.There are several free hours each day. Weekends are free, too. During the free hours some of the teenagers learn photo-taking or drawing. Others sit around and talk or sing. Each teenager chooses his own way to spend his free time.When people live together, they should have rules. In this program the teenagers and the adults make the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the problem goes before the whole group. They talk about it and ask, “Why did it happen? What should we do about it?”One of the teenagers has said something about it, “You have to stop thinking only a bout yourself. You should learn how to think about the group.”BThere are many expressions with heart. One of them is to "lose your heart" to someone. When that happens, you have fallen in love. But if the person who "won your heart" does not love you, then you are sure to have a "broken heart." In your sadness, you think that the person you loved is "hard-hearted," and in fact, has a "heart of stone."You may decide to "pour out your heart" to a friend. Telling someone about your pe rsonal problems can often make you feel better.If your friend does not seem to understand how painful your broken heart is, you may ask her to "have a heart." You are asking your friend to show some sympathy (同情) for your situation. Your friend "has her heart in the right place" if she says she is sorry for how you feel.If your friend says, “My heart bleeds (流血) for you”, she means the opposite. She is a cold-hearted person who does not really care about your situation.When you are feeling afraid, "your heart is in your mouth." You might say, for example, that your heart was in your mouth when you asked a bank to lend you some money to pay for a new house.If that bank says no to you, do not "lose heart." Be "strong-hearted." Sit down with the banker and have a "heart to heart" talk. Be open and honest about your situation. The bank may have a "change of heart" and agree to lend you the money. Then you could stop worrying and "put your heart at rest."( ) 29. If the person who won your heart does not love you, what do you think of her?A. She has a strong heart.B. She loses herheart.C. She has a broken heart.D. She has a heart of stone.( ) 30.

The old man was one of the poor people in Chiang Mai and there was no difference from beggars (乞丐). Most of them were some lonely old people. Their life had no support.Mark was a kind man, so he gave some changes to him without thinking. The old man told him to pick something he liked.

But the old man seemed not to understand what he meant, still following him. The bag on his back made him sweat (流汗) all over.Mark happened to meet his Thai colleague (同事) in the street and his colleague heard this. The colleague turned to ask why the old man was following his friend.The old man said out of breath, “My son, you gave me money, but didn’t want mythings, so I have to give you something. I see you are a foreigner, likely not to familiar(熟悉) with here. I just want to follow you and show you the way. All I c an do for you is this.”Mark was shocked.

If the same two people meet again, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand. Friendships between us develop more slowly but may become lifelong feelings, extending(延伸) deeply into both families.There is another difficult point for us to understand. Although Americans treat friends warmly in their personal everyday lives, th ey don’t show their politeness to them if it needs a great deal of time. But in China, we are usually generous with our time. We, as hosts, will appear at an airport even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take day off from our work to act as guides to our friends: It is opposite in America. Americans can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily plans. They will probably expect(期望) the visitors to get themselves from the airport to the hotels. And they expect the visitors will phone them from there. Once the visitors arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real.For Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to restaurants, except for business matters. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. So accept theirhospitality(好客) at home and enjoy your visit in America!( ) 37.

Chinese friendships develop more slowly but will never disappear.D. Chinese friendships are more sincere (真诚的) than American friendships. ( ) 40. This passage is most probably written for _______.A. American studentsB. Chinese studentsC. Chinese visitors to AmericaD. American visitors to ChinaEFriends are important to the children. Research shows that children who have no friends can suffer from difficulties later in life. Friendship offers children more than just fun. In making friends, children learn how to get in touch with the others and solve problems. Making friends is even good for chil dren’s study because they can help each other during the class.If the parents care about their children whether they made many friends, what matters is that the child is comfortable and happy with his friends. Parents need to understand how children build friendships.First of all, be a friend to your child. Good friendships start at home. Children begin to develop the necessary ability to go out and meet others through getting with their parents. Greet the child warmly and let him know you are glad to see him. Children learn a lot from how their parents stay with them and other people.Teach children how to solve conflicts(争端). Being able to work out conflicts is an important skill in getting along with others. If parents know the children have a conflict, let them work it out on their own. Only step in if it is really necessary.Give children chances to practice staying together. Have children play games that need team work and group problem solving skills. For example, races are fun and offer plenty of practice in teamwork. “In what ways didn’t you work well together? What might you do differently next time?” For these idea s, see books such as Games Book by Terry Orlick, Energizers by Carol Apacki, and Team-Building Activities for Every Group by Alanna Jones.Encourage(鼓励) children to show thanks to the others. The parents can encourage children to do this by setting the example for them.( ) 41.
