1、Making friends is a skill. Before you make friends, you have to decide whom you want to be your friends. Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things as they do. 交朋友最快的方式是微笑.
When you smile, people think you are friendly to them and easy to talk to. It may not be easy to smile at first, but remember most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.To talk with others is a good way to make friends. One easy way to start a talk with someone is to say something nice about him. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Ask your new friends some questions about themselves. Who are their favorite singers? Where do they live? 他们放学后做些什么?
There are all good questions to start a talk. Make sure you have something to add to the talk,too.
When someone asks you a question, you’d better have an answer for themRemember that nothing will stop a talk more quickly than a shrug for an answer.

26、Little Women
Chapter 1 Four sisters
"Christmas won't be Christmas without any presents," grumbled (嘀咕) Jo, lying on the rug (地毯).
"It's so awful to be poor!" agreed Meg, looking down at her old dress.
"It's not right for some girls to have plenty of pretty things, and others to have nothing at all," added little Amy, with a sad sniff (轻哼).
"We've got father and mother, and each other," said Beth gently.
The four young faces on which the firelight shone brightened at the cheerful words, but darkened again as Jo said sadly, "We haven't got father, and shall not have him for a long time." She didn't say "perhaps never", but each silently added it, thinking of father far away at the war in the South.
Nobody spoke for a minute; then Meg said: "Mother advised not having any presents this Christmas because it is going to be a hard winter for everyone; and she thinks we shouldn't spend money for pleasure when our men are suffering (受难) in the army. We can't do much, but we can make our little effort. But I am afraid I don't"; Meg shook her head thinking regretfully of all the pretty things she wanted.
"But I don't think the little we should spend would do any good," said Jo. "We've each got a dollar, and that won't help the army much. I agree not to expect anything from mother or you. Let's each buy ourselves what we want, and have a little fun. We work hard to earn it."
"I do, teaching those tiresome children nearly all day when I really want to enjoy myself at home," complained Meg.
"You don't have half such a hard time as I do," said Jo. "How would you like to be shut up for hours with a nervous, fussy old lady, who is never happy, and worries you till you're ready to fly out of the window or cry?"
"It's naughty to fret; but I do think washing dishes and keeping things tidy is the worst work in the world. It makes me cross; and my hands get so stiff to practice my music at all"; Beth looked at her rough hands with a sigh that anyone could hear.
"I don't believe any of you suffer as I do." cried Amy, "for you don't have to go to school with rude girls, who laugh at your lessons or your dresses, and say bad words because your father isn't rich."
【1】According to the passage, who is the most pessimistic (悲观的) and who is the most optimistic (乐观的)?
A.Meg; Beth B.Jo; Amy C.Meg; Amy D.Amy; Beth
【2】According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A.Their father died when he was fighting with others.
B.The passage is a story about three girls and a boy in a family.
C.Their father is away at the war, leaving them at home with their mother.
D.The four children in the passage all work and make their own money.
【3】What do they think of their mother's suggestion of not having any Christmas gifts?
A.They all agreed to the suggestion of not having any Christmas gifts.
B.They all agreed to save the money and buy a gift for each other.
C.They all agreed that giving the money to the army was of much help.
D.They all agreed that giving the money to the army was of little help.
