21、Making friends is a skill. Like most skills, it improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take some actions. You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends by staying at home alone.

Join a club or a group, talking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier, or join some activities.

Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown.

Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts (怀疑）about ourselves. We imagine other people are judging us, finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself as you are and try to put the other people at ease. You’ll both feel more comfortable.

Try to act self-confidence (自信)even if you don’t feel that way when you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom. Walk tall and straight, look directly at other people and smile.

If you see someone you’d like to speak to, say something. Don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.

Just meeting someone new doesn’t mean that you’ll make friends with that person — friendships are based on mutual（相互的）liking and “give and take”. They take time and effort to develop. And there are things that keep a new friendship from growing.

【1】You can not make friends ________.

A．if you take actions

B．by going to people

C．if you avoid(避免) meeting people

D．if you won’t join a club

【2】The underlined part in paragraph 3 means ________.

A．the person you know

【3】According to the passage, it’s quite ________ for people to get nervous when meeting someone new.

A．good

B．exciting

C．interesting

D．natural

【4】Friendships are based on ________.

A．liking each other

B．meeting more people

C．talking and smiling

D．looking directly at other people

【5】In paragraph 5, the underlined part means ________.

A．even if you are not self-confident

B．even if you are self-confident

C．Even if you are not comfortable

D．even if you are comfortable

22、   When my family moved to America from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States. 

I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive (敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description "old". I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry. 

In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.

However, in the United States, people think "growing old" is a problem since "old" shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn't want to hear. 

After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don't respect them anymore; I still respect them, but now I don't show my feelings through words.

【1】Jack brought the couple their food very fast because ________.

A.the manager asked him to do so

B.he respected the elderly

C.the couple wanted him to do so

【2】When Jack called the couple "elderly", they became ________.

A.nervous B.satisfied C.unhappy

【3】In Jack's hometown, ________.

A.people dislike being called "old"

B.people are proud of being old

C.many people reach the age of seventy or eighty

【4】After this experience, Jack ________.

A.changed his way with older people

B.made friends with the couple

C.no longer respected the elderly

【5】Which of the following is TRUE?

A.The more Jack explained, the angrier the couple got.

B.Jack wanted to show his feelings through words after his experience.

C.From this experience, Jack learned more about American culture.

24、       Last year, Bob visited Vancouver, Canada alone. He went there to give a talk on the environment. When it was over, he traveled to the Rocky Mountains and stayed in the Maple Leaf Hotel. He then took a short walk to look at the local (当地的) plants in the forest. After a few hours, he knew he took the wrong way, but was sure he could get back to the hotel.

       However, after walking for several hours the next day, Bob knew he was in trouble. “I had my mobile phone, but the battery (电池) was almost dead. I could probably make just one call. But I didn’t know the number of my hotel and I didn’t want to worry my family unless I really had to,” said Bob. He went on walking for three more days. He knew which plants he could eat and he had little trouble finding them.

       On the fourth day, he knew it was hopeless and decided to call his family. “He was quite calm when he spoke to me on the phone,” said Shirley, Bob’s wife (妻子). “He seemed to be in control of the situation.” Shirley called the Maple Leaf Hotel at once. “That week lots of visitors went to the city to watch basketball games, and we thought Mr. Rigsby went there too,” said the hotel owner. As soon as Shirley phoned, the hotel sent out some people to look for Bob. They found him about one hour later, and luckily he was quite unhurt.

“I will never go to the forest without a guide. I never want an experience like that again,” said Bob.

25、Is it true that we British people have a different sense of humour from people in other countries? Let’s have a look at what we laugh at in Britain.

To us British people, 【1】 (power) and important people often cause laughter. It’s not just politicians(政客) who make us laugh, but anyone whose job is to tell other people what to do and who takes 【2】 (them) too seriously.

We laugh 【3】 the power, but also, at anyone who is treated badly. We know they cannot win, but if they do win sometimes, it’s even funnier. Our clowns (小丑) are often silly people doing silly things, w【4】 in America, they are often clever people doing clever things and winning at last.

The fact that we l【5】 when other people might feel hopeless is one of the strangest things to learn about British humour. We do have a strong sense of irony (讽刺). After some terrible experience we might say, “Not very 【6】 (please)”. And we might say in the middle of a typhoon. “It’s 【7】 bit windy today.” Or “There is a tiny problem,” when something has gone 【8】 (total) wrong. We don’t like to express strong feelings, but just “keep calm and carry on”.

Another thing that can make it different to u【9】 British humour is that we don’t always laugh or even smile when we say something funny. We often keep a straight face or use an unsmiling expression when we’re making 【10】 (joke).

Do you think the British sense of humour is special?
