三、阅读理解（共20小题，满分35分）

A

When we meet someone for the first time，we often would like to talk about ourselves．We just want to show the best to others．But why not listen? Sometimes，listening is better than talking．Then how to be a good listener? Here are a few suggestions：

◆Look at the speaker．It shows you are listening carefully．It's also a good way to

“talk” to your friend with your eyes．

◆Don't cut in．Give your friend enough time to say what she or he thinks．Don't stop your friend's words．Even if you want to say something, you should wait till your friend finishes．

◆Try to understand．When you are listening，try to catch her or his feelings and ideas．It helps you know your friend better．And your friend will feel better about you．

She or he may think you are the right person to talk with．

◆Show your ideas at the right time．“It's interesting．”“What happened next?”…These are useful when you are listening．And you can give advice when your friend asks for it．

It's never too late to become a good listener．It can change your life and the lives of the people in your life．

根据短文内容，判断下列句子的正误。正确的填“T”，错误的填“F”，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分）

In Canada and the United States，people enjoy entertaining(请客) at home. They often invite friends over for a meal，a party，or just for coffee and conversation.

Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their home：

“Would you like to come over for dinner Saturday night？”

“Hey，we're having a party on Friday. Can you come？”

To reply to an invitation，either say thank you and accept，or say you're sorry and give an excuse：

“Thanks，I'd love to. What time would you like me to come？”or “Oh，sorry. I have tickets for a movie.”

Sometimes，however，people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real invitations. For example：

“Please come over for a drink sometime.”

“Why not get together for a party sometime？”

“Why don't you come over and see us someti me soon？”

They are really just polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because they don't mention a specific time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To reply to expressions like these，people just say “Sure，that would be great！”or “OK. Yes，thanks.”

So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation，listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?

People are always afraid of making mistakes．But sometimes it's not bad to make mistakes, and here is why．At first，mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things．It's always good to try new things．because when you are trying new things you are growing．If you never try new things，how can you improve? How can you create? The simple answer is，“You can't．”Look around you，everything you see is the result of someone trying new things．

Another good thing about mistakes is this：when you are making mistakes，you are learning．Consider this：Edison failed 10，000 times before he invented the light bulb．When he was asked how he felt to fail that many times，he said that he hadn't failed 10，000 times，but rather had learned 10，000 things that didn't work．

Finally，when you make a mistake，you are that much closer to success．Why? Because you have said what you should say，and you have done what you should do．Every time you make a mistake，you are closer to success．But it doesn't mean that you can make mistakes without thinking．Instead，when you try new things you have to think them over，so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes．

We shouldn't spend all our time and money on the only one way，but use them correctly．Because our time and money are limited(有限的)．

There is an old saying．“If you are not making mistakes，you are not trying hard enough．”So go bravely and make mistakes．And learn．And grow．And succeed．

It doesn't matter. Do your best to get along well with everyone and I think you'll make it next time."
