After we meet people, it is up to us to make them our friends.Let us stop a moment and consider what really makes a friend. The major qualities like faithfulness, devotion, friendliness,flash through our minds. But it is the large number of very small particular qualities that make up one’s whole character, such as cheerfulness, friendliness and punctuality. After all, “to make a friend, be a friend” is not such a big and difficult order. There are particular favorable qualities, which attract others to us, and some fundamental psychological do’s and don’ts.
If you are in the presence of a shy person, talking and asking casual questions may bring him out of his shell. Think of what would be most acceptable to the other person for you to talk, or to listen. Either way, the goal is to make yourself pleasant.
Always remember to listen, but listen intelligently. To have anyone “hang on our words” is the most unnoticeably clever way in the world to please somebody.For a few extremely happy seconds we are the center of attraction,but when it is our turn to be audience,let us remember how we felt as the actor,and let’s be genuinely interested in what the other fellow is saying.
Other people will like us, if we like them. If you want friends, keep your mind and heart open to friendship. Be alive to the other person’s world.

A.the way of talking to a shy person

举一反三
It seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble.That’s more or less what happened the night that Nashville Police officer Floyd Hyde was on duty.
“I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville.As I got onto  Highway 40,blue lights and sirens(警笛)going.I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway.The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me.He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.”
But Hyde couldn’t go after him.Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders,so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident.But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove,hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car.As it turned out,keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult.Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene.
Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination(目的地).At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene.His help wasn’t needed.Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the Firebird,who by this time had developed something new to panic about.
“Just about that time,” Hyde said,“I saw fire coming out from under that car,with blue smoke and oil going everywhere.He’d blown his engine.Now he had to stop.”
“After I arrested him.I asked him why he was running.He told me he didn’t have a driver’s license(执照).”
That accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty---a thousand dollars for the new engine---not to mention the charges for driving without a license,attempting to run away,and dangerous driving.
小题1:The underlined word“panicked”in Paragraph 2 means       .
A.fearedB.hatedC.excitedD.satisfied
小题2:The driver of the Firebird suddenly speeded down the highway because         .
A.he was racing with another driver on the road
B.he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene
C.he thought the police officer wanted to stop him
D.he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder
小题3:Which of the following statements is true?
A.Someone else was taking care of the injured person.
B.The Pontiac reached its destination at the accident scene.
C.Hyde knew where he was going by following the right car.
D.The policeman was running after a speeder on Highway 40
小题4:Choose the best title for the passage.
A.Going My Way?B.Help on the Way?
C.Fun All theWay?D.Losing His Way?

Wearing seat belt is,of course,the first step to safe driving.These additional measures might also save your life.
Count to three.Keeping up enough space between your car and others is extreme1y necessary.Jim Clark,a California driving instructor,suggests a least amount of three seconds’following distance.To figure this,pick an object on the roadside ahead.When the car in front of you passes it,start counting one-thousand-one,one-thousand-two,one-thousand-three.If you get to that object before you reach one-thousand-three,you don’t have three seconds of following time --- time needed to keep away from accidents.
Let followers pass.“If someone’s driving after you,get out of his way,”Clark advises.“You’re better of being safe than right.”
Expect the worst.In a study,the Federal Highway Administration(联邦公路局)found that 68 percent of drivers do not come to a complete stop at stop signs.When you’re driving and see someone come near to a stop sing,assume the person’s not going to stop.
And when you stop at a crossing and another car comes near with its turn signal on,don’t take it true that the driver will turn.Instead,wait until he turns.He may have had the signal on for miles.
Stay outside.In crowd,multilane(多车道) traffic,drive in either the outside--left or outside--right lane.“That allows you somewhere to go if a problem develops,”traffic expert Francis Kenel says.“If you’re in the middle,all you can do is to pause from time to time.”
小题1:According to the text if you want to drive safely you should   .
A.wear seat beltB.take some additional measures
C.at least take 5 stepsD.count to three
小题2:When you finish counting“one-thousand-three",you have   .
A.driven one thousand and three metresB.kept three seconds’distance from other cars
C.counted a lot of numbersD.kept a long distance from the object
小题3:What does the underlined word“assume”in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Maybe.B.Guess.C.Ask.D.Suppose.
小题4:Mr.Kenel tells us while driving in multilane traffic_______.   
A.we’d better find somewhere to go
B.it will be better for us to drive in the outside lanes
C.it is safer to drive in the middle
D.we must drive on the left

Suppose someone gave you a pen---a sealed(密封的),solid‑coloured pen. You couldn’t see how much 21 it had. It might run dry  22  the first few tentative (试探的) words or last just long and make a difference in the scheme of things. You don’t know when the ink will  24 .
Under the rules of the game, you really never know. You have to  25 a chance! Actually, no rule of the game states you must do anything.  26  picking up and using the pen, you could leave it on a shelf or in a drawer where it will dry up, 27 .But if you do decide to use it, what would you  28  it? How would you  29  the game?
Would you plan and plan before you ever  30  a word? Would your plans be so extensive that you never didn’t even start  31 ? Or would you take the pen  32 ,plunge right in and Just do it, struggling to keep up  33  the twists and turns of the torrent (急流)of words that take you where they take you?
Would you write cautiously and  34 ,as if the pen might run dry the next moment, or would you pretend to believe that the pen would write forever and go on accordingly?
And what would you write about:Love? Hate? Fun? Misery? Life? Death? Nothing? 35 ?
Would you write to  36 just yourself? Or others? Or yourself by writing about others?
Would you even write? Once you have the pen ,no  37 says you have to write. Would you sketch? Scribble(潦草地写)?Doodle(涂鸦)or draw? Would you stay in or on the  38 ,or see no lines at all, even if they  39 there? There’s a lot to think about here, isn’t there?
Now,  40  someone gave you a life…
