26、 【1】 We are learning from life constantly, as long as we recognise and accept those lessons. When you choose to be a student of life, you open yourself to limitless opportunities.
Explore the world. Don’t limit yourself to your hometown or to the city you got your first job. 【2】 It doesn’t have to be just one town or one apartment complex. Backpacking may not be for everyone, but it’s not the only way you can see the world. Travelling doesn’t just have to be going overseas but also dropping by many states. Culture exists not just in a country but even in small communities.
Acquire new life skills. Maybe it’s time that you finally learn how to fix a broken faucet or even fix the faulty light in your bathroom. You can finally cross out your bucket list items that have been there forever. Learn how to drive a car or ride a bike. There are definitely things you don’t know how to do, and you have a lifetime ahead of you to learn. 【3】
Be cultured. Watch as many movies and read as many books as possible. And it doesn’t mean that you only watch the ones with high ratings from critics. Books and movies are the fruit of the writers’ or the makers’ life experiences and understanding of their surroundings. Movies and books are a good look into how people interpret the world.
【4】 For some individuals, to grow older means to keep your circle of friends down to a few, but that shouldn’t stop you from meeting new people. Widen your circle by allowing people into your life and letting them get to know you. Widening your circle to people from all walks of life gives you a bigger and better perspective of the world.
Do many first's. When was the last time you did something for the first time? 【5】 It can be as simple as watching a movie alone or as big as trying bungee jumping. Doing something for the first time doesn’t need to have a life-changing effect. It can be a simple realization that apparently, going to a film screening by yourself isn’t so bad.
So, there are so much more to learn, especially now that we’re virtually connected to everyone in the world. As a student of life, it’s really up to you to use all your resources and make it into something enriching.
A.Widen your circle.
B.Entertain yourself.
C.If you can’t think of the answer, maybe you need to go out and try something new.
D.Go beyond the place you consider home, because home can be many places.
E.You don’t always need a profound realization for everything you do.
F.Lessons are not limited to our academic studies.
G.It’s never too late to start learning something new.

29、 My best friend travelled to stay with my family last weekend. When she arrived, she went straight to the kitchen and, without asking, ate some dried fruit. I knew she would do this. We’ve known each other for almost 20 years. She can eat anything she wants from my kitchen.
Our long weekend together was simple. I was recovering from surgery and couldn’t go to shopping malls. We passed the time running errands (差事), but there was never a quiet moment. We’ve lived in different cities for almost a decade. Reunions (相聚) need conversation.
Our personalities are matched and a shared history is extremely valuable. We were competitors at high school before bonding. Then we discovered the many interests that we had in common. Our friendship developed itself quickly. What I like most about our friendship is that we don’t have to “do”, but we simply have to “be”. We drop the act, the performance, the public version (版本) of ourselves.
There is something special about friends who know everything about you. They are rare. They have seen your bright lights of achievements and the depths of desperation. I’m lucky to have found this friend, and to see a future where her companionship remains. Being together is perfection.
【1】Why did the author mention what her friend have done in the kitchen?
A.To show her friend was rude.
B.To introduce her best friend.
C.To show the close bond between them.
D.To prove the author was generous.
【2】How did the author and her friend spend their weekend in paragraph 2?
A.Going on shopping.
B.Talking about their lives.
C.Running in malls.
D.Quarreling about errands.
【3】What does the author value most about their friendship?
A.Having the same interest.
B.Competing to be the best.
C.Being comfortable just being themselves.
D.Supporting each other.
【4】Which of the following saying may the author probably want to express in the text?

B.A friend is easier lost than found.
