AThese days it's more important than ever to be a good neighbor. There are places where I lived in the past and where I didn’t even know my neighbors’ names. I am lucky enough now to live in an area where not only do I know my neighbors but I like them.Some of the reasons why it’s important to be a good neighbor are simple.·They may take in your mail and paper for you while you’re away.·They look out for your home when you’re on holiday and notify(告知) you if there is something wrong.·You can always borrow that cup of sugar that you need on a Sunday morning when you just don’t feel like driving to the store.Those are the obvious reasons but more importantly, being a good neighbor just makes you feel good. My neighbor recently had knee surgery(外科手术) and I’ve taken out his trash for the last three weeks. He mows my lawn for me in the summers so it’s a win-win. One night my car ran out of gas and who did I call? My neighbor was there with a gallon of gas in no time.If you have never lived next to bad neighbors, you may take the good ones for granted. It’s not until you move away from your college neighbors partying all night who leave beer cans in the yard that you really appreciate the good ones who are quiet and keep their yard clean.If you have an elderly or sick neighbor, take a moment to see what they need. Clean their driveway for them, run to the store, or maybe they need to mail a letter. These things make for wonderful neighbors and some of these neighbors may turn into lifelong friends.21. How does the author feel about his present neighbors?A. Angry.B. Satisfied.C. Disappointed.D. Proud.22. What can we learn from Paragraph 6?A. Being a good friend does us no good.B. The author’s neighbor broke his car.C. Being a good neighbor makes us happy.D. The author was unwilling to help his neighbors.23. The author develops the last but one paragraph（倒数第二段）mainly by .A. comparing different situations.B. explaining his decisions.C. criticizing (批评) bad neighborsD. showing his habits.BWe are familiar with money. But do you know where money first came from? Who were the first people to use money? Scientists say that over 10,000 years ago, people in Swaziland, Southern Africa, were using red dye(染料) as a type of money. The aboriginal(土著的) people of Australia were also using a similar dye as a type of money around that period of time. Later, people in several places used shells and other valuable things as a type of money to “buy” or “trade for” things they wanted. This is known as a form of trade where some goods are swapped for other goods.Many things have been used as “money” from pigs to salt. For a long time, pepper(胡椒粉) could be used to “pay for” things in Europe. On the Micronesian island of Yap, people used very big stone “coins”, some of which were up to eight feet wide and weighed more than a small car.But the most convenient forms of money were pieces of valuable metals like gold and silver. Historians think that the Lydians were the first people to introduce the use of gold and silver coins around 650BC. Gold and silver are still quite valuable today.The first banknotes appeared in China in the 10th century, and the first banknotes in Europe were produced in 1661.Money has changed through the ages. However, it is more important today than ever before.24. What is the text mainly about?A. The value of money.B. The importance of money.C. The use of money.D. The brief history of money.25. What can we learn about money from the text?A. Shells were used as money in Australia.B. The earliest money was used in Northern Africa.C. People started using money 100,000 years ago.D. Large stones were once used as a type of money.26. We can learn from the text that banknotes .A. were first used in China.B. were introduced to Europe from China.C. were very popular in China in the 6th century.D. were more valuable than other forms of money.27. Where does this text most probably come from?A. A news report.B. A physics textbook.C. A history textbook.D. A science fictionCWho needs friends? According to most psychologists (心理学家) we all do, especially nowadays when so many other aspects (方面) of modern life are changing. It seems that having friends keeps us both healthy and happy.The number of TV series about groups of friends shows just how important friendship is to us. Psychologist Dorothy Rowe says that many of us now turn to our friends, instead of our families, for advice, comfort and security. One woman named Rebecca she interviewed even told her that if she had got to choose between her husband and her friend, she would choose her friend.Since our friends mean so much to us, it is not surprising that the happiest marriages are also friendships. “Once the romantic stage of a relationship has passed, it is friendship that holds people together,”says Rowe. If the couple do not make some change, they will either get tired of each other and break up or stay together and seek friendship with others.But is friendship equally important to women and men? According to author Rhonda Pritchard, women are more likely than men to have close friends. “ You tell a friend things that you’d never tell a partner”，says one woman she interviewed. For men, friendship is usually based on doing things together rather than the private conversations that are typical of women friend. Men share time and activities like building a fence or a business, running, riding a bike, fishing or watching football, but they don’t often share their feelings.Although many women find their relationships with a husband or boyfriend is not enough, many men say that their partner is their best friend. Even women who are very happily married are likely to become very unhappy without a close friend and can even find the breakup of a close friend as painful as the end of a marriage.Lasting friendships can provide a lot of the same support that families provided in the past, but the perfect situation is to have your family there for as well. Friendships and family relationships can both change, but a friend will not consider you when making really important decisions in the same way that a family member will.28. What did Rebecca think about friendship?A. Families are reliable forever.B. Her friend means more to her than her husbandC. One needn’t have too many friends.D. Friends are as important as families.29. Some couples look for friends outside their relationships because .A. they are encouraged by their partners.B. they are not fairly treated by their partnersC. they don’t get what they need from their partners.D. they think their friends are more romantic.30. What is the main different between men’s and women’s friendships?A. Women often do things together.B. Women often talk about business with friends.C. Men seldom talk about their feelings.D. Men often talk to their friends about work and family.31. When a friendship ends, some women may .A. feel as upset as when a marriage ends.B. share feelings with their partners.C. treat their partners as friends.D. turn to their husband for comfort.DD32.Which of the following is the original (原来的) price of Abraham Verghese’s book?A.＄16.00B. ＄16.80C. ＄16.99D. ＄19.0033.
