are plants too，and we eat a lot of them．So can we also eat wood and paper？Scientists say："All food comes in some way from plants．"Well，is that true？Animals eat grass and grow fat．Then we eat their

for job in cities．They hope to be rich，but they realize they have many problems making money．And one of the problems is the pride and discrimination （歧视）from the people in cities．When night falls，I can see the sad faces of the migrant workers everywhere．You can see them playing cards along the streets．Many are living far away from where they work．I can sometimes feel their pain，knowing exactly what it feels like to live so far away from home in a city where I walk a different walk and talk a different talk．Yes，they dress differently and speak differently．Different habits，but they work hard．The people in cities regard them as outsiders，and most governments refuse to give them medical care and public schooling for their children．So many things need to be changed．The first is discrimination!They may not make asmuch money as some people in cities，they may not have everything we have，but they are honest．They are very important and necessary to China's economic development and have become an important force for the change of Chinese society．They're building the new China．So we should help them with our hands．51．The words"migrant

sad．Kate broke her mom's favorite cup，（56）She was so sorry for her mistake．We all make mistakes because we're humans．And it's not always easy to get on well with everyone all the time．Sometimes we hurt people's feelings although we don't do it on purpose．Sometimes we hurt people's feelings on purpose．（57）So we apologize（道歉）．An apology tells someone that we're sorry for our mistakes．It's a way to show that we'll try to do better in the future．Apologies are one of tools to build good friendships and relationships．When you say"I'm sorry，"（58）because what you did or said hurt another person．（59），you are also saying that you respect the other person，and care about his or her feelings．Apologizing shows you have empathy（同感）．After apologizing，you might feel a little better．（60）When

improve it if you are patient．If you want to meet people and m（61）friends，you must be willing to take action．You must first go where there are people．You won't make friends staying home alone．Joining a c（62）or a group，talking to those who l（63）the same things as you do is much easier．Or join someone in some activities．Many people are nervous when you t（64）to new people．After all，meeting strangers means seeing the unknown．And it's human nature to feel a bit unpleasant about the unknown．Most of fears about dealing with new people come from doubts （怀疑）about ourselves．We imagine other people are judging us﹣finding us too tall or too short，too this or too that．B（65）don't forget that they must be feeling the same way．Try to accept yourself as you are，and try to make others feel at home．You'll all feel more c（66）．Try to be brave even if you don't feel that way when you e（67）a room full of strangers．Walk straight，look directly at o（68）people and smile．If you see someone you'd like to speak to，say something．Don't wait f（69）the other person to start a conversation．Just meeting someone new does not mean that you'll make friends with that person．Friendship is based on mutual（相互的）likings and"give and take"．It t （70）time and effort（精力）for us to develop friendship．And there are things that stop a new friendship from growing．六、阅读表达（共1小题，计10分）阅读短文，根据要求完成下面各小题．32．（10分）Is there someone you hate？Well，maybe you don't really hate them．But you get really angry every time you think of them．If you don't let this anger go，it can turn into bitterness （痛苦）．Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease，but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members．No one enjoys beingaround an angry person for very long．If you see bitterness in your life，here are some ways to deal with it．●Accept itInstead of trying to deny（否认）your anger，make it clear to yourself and accept it．See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it．●Stop making excuses for it（72）You may feel you have a right to be angry．You may think you're right and the other person is wrong．You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad．But in the end，bitterness hurts you much more than the other person．The bitterness will hold you back，and the other person will go on with his or her life．●Forgive and forget it（73）You probably can't completely put the anger out of your mind．But you can decide to forgive the other person．Forget it and move on．You'll enjoy better health and peace of mind．71．What problems can bitterness bring us？72．Choose the same meaning of the underlined sentence．A：You may feel you can be angry．B：You may feel you should not be angry any more．73．请把划线部分的句子翻译成汉语．74．How many ways to deal with your bitterness are mentioned in the
