26、How to Start a Friendship
To increase the chances that a friendship will grow, children need to express openness to others.
A very basic way to show openness is to exchange greetings with kids around them.【1】 If another child says "Hi!" to them, they usually look away or say nothing because they feel awkward and shy. But they are giving the other child the impression that "I don't like you, and leave me alone!" Actually, that's not how they feel, although that's what they're showing. On the other hand, some outgoing children may go so far that they keep greeting anyone even if the other children feel uncomfortable with this behavior. It doesn't open the door for friendship.【2】
Praising is another easy way to show openness to friendship. Everyone feels good to receive a sincere praise, and usually likes people who are kind enough to notice his best side!
【3】It could mean lending a pencil to a classmate, saving him a seat, helping him carry something, or sharing a lunch treat. Kindness leads more kindness and it's one of the best ways to begin a friendship. It is true that kind children are better liked by the other kids. But if they try to buy friendship with money or expensive gifts, it will never work.【4】
Showing openness just opens a door to friendship.【5】To increase the chances that a friendship will grow, children need to send their friendship invitations to kids who might come in.
A.Actually, it shuts the door.
B.However, shy children often have trouble with this.
C.Instead, it is to show weakness rather than kindness.
D.Expressing openness to others opens the door to friendship.
E.But it doesn't guarantee that anyone will walk through that door.
F.Small kindnesses can also be a good way to send invitation for friendship.
G.Extend their friendship invitations to the right kids who want to come in.
27、What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? The products displayed at the entrance? Or the soft background music?
But have you ever noticed the smell? Unless it is bad, the answer is likely to be no. But while a shop's scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds, it is certainly there. And it is an increasingly powerful tool in encouraging people to buy.
A brand(品牌) store has become famous for its distinctive(独特的) smell which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance, through scent machines. A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air. One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores, customers' intention(意图) to buy increased by 80 percent.
When it comes to the best shopping streets in Pairs, scent is just as important to a brand's success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales. That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be.
Some years ago, the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants‘s (店员) unhappy attitude and don't-touch-what-you-can't-afford displays. Now the rise of electronic commerce(商务)(e-commerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience. But while e-shops can use sights and sounds, only bricks-and-mortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave.
Now a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department, and coconut(椰子) scent in the swimsuit section. A department store has even opened a new lab, inviting customers on a journey into the store's windows to smell books, pots and drawers, in search of their perfect scent.
【1】According to the passage, what is a more and more powerful tool in the success of some brand stores?
A.Friendly assistants.
B.Distinctive smell.
C.Soft background music.
D.Attractive window displays.
【2】The underlined word “scent” in Paragraph 2 means ________.
A.smell
B.window displays
C.goods
D.sales assistants
【3】E-shops are mentioned in the passage to ________.
A.show the advantages of brick-and-mortar stores
B.urge shop assistants to change their attitude.
C.push stores to use sights and sounds
D.introduce the rise of e-commerce
【4】The main purpose of the passage is to ________.
A.compare
B.argue
C.persuade
D.inform
28、Although English is not as old as Chinese, it is spoken by many people around the world every day. English speakers are always creating new words, and we are often able to know where most words come from.
Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes from. Did you ever think about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham? About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe. They came from a big city in Germany called Hamburger. They did not speak good English, but they ate good food. When some Americans saw them eating round pieces of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. The Germans did not understand the question and answered. “We came from Hamburger.” One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round pieces of beef like those which the men from Hamburger ate. Then he put each between two pieces of bread and started selling them. Such bread came to be called “ hamburgers”. Today “hamburgers” are sold in many countries around the world.
Whether this story is true or not, it is certainly is interesting. Knowing why any word has a certain meaning is interesting, too. The reason, for most English words, can be found in any large English dictionary.
【1】According to the writer, English is .
A. as old as Chinese B. older than German
C. not so old as Chinese D. very difficult to learn
【2】Hamburg is .
A. a kind of food B. a round piece of beef
C. the name of a village D. a city in Germany
【3】We know from the story that .

B. hamburgers were made by Germans
C. hamburgers are made with ham
D. hamburgers were sold all over the world about a century ago
29、 Weeks ago, the longest I had ever run was 5K.What’s more, I didn’t like running, so often I would fasten my old shoes, walk out of the house with heavy steps, get less than a mile in and wonder why I was bothering, especially when there are many more satisfying ways of exercising.Before last summer, I had never participated in any kind of race at all.
At the end of July, I had completed triathlon(铁人三项) after two weeks of training. At the end of it came the run—which ended up more like a walk. But afterwards, I realized something about it appealed to me. The extremely painful fun of doing something I hated and was unprepared for turned out to be like a difficult task to test my abilities and skills.
So when an invitation to do the Berlin Marathon dropped into my inbox a couple of weeks later, it felt like a twist of fate. After the triathlon, hadn’t I been saying that I should start running, precisely because I hated it so much? The joy of the triathlon had been that I challenged my limits. It felt necessary to find out again where those limits might lie. There was a very good chance that I would not only fail but embarrass and hurt myself in the process. But there were plenty of reasons not to do it, I said yes.
Marathon training is supposed to take at least 20 weeks or more, and that is for someone who has run before. But I don’t even know what speed I’m aiming for. Finally the training plan becomes something to stop me worrying when the race seems too frightening. This happens often, as I count the days to the race and picture I fell over in the middle of a Berlin street. This anxiety feels sure to happen, but there is something equally unavailable about the training plan; if I follow it, then I have done everything I can; if I do everything I can, then I can’t regret what comes at the end. In the most extreme training week, I run about 40 miles.
