It is possible that we simply do not stay in one place long enough food _3_friendship to _4_. However, there can be_5_disagreement on the need for each of us to think carefully about the kind of friendship we want.
To most of us, friendships are considered very important, but we need to have clear in our _6_ the kinds of friendship we want. Are they to be close or _7_ at arm"s length? Do we want to _8_ourselves or do we want to walk on the surface? For some people, many friendships on the surface are _9_enough—and that" s all right. But at some point we need to 10 that our expectations are the same as our friends" expectations. The sharing of_11_experience _12_ our tears as well as our dark dreams is the surest way to deepen friendships. But it _13_be undertaken(进行) slowly and carried on only if there are _14_of interest and action in return.
What are some of the _15_of friendship? The greatest is the attraction to expect too much too soon. Deep relationships _16_time. Another“major difficulty" is the selfishness to think one “possesses" the other, including his time and attention. Similarly, friendships _17_ actions in return. In 18words, you must give as much as you take. Finally there is a question of taking care of. Unless you spend _19_time together, talking on the phone, writing letters, doing things together, friendships will die _20_.

What did you dream about last night? Did your teeth fall out or did you fly? Maybe you died or someone you know did.Or maybe you were back in high school.These are among the most common dreams people have and they all mean something.Here are some of the most common dreams and their interpretations or symbolism.
Dreams of flying.Dreams of flying represent feelings of freedom that may result from an instance when you overcome a limitation or obstacle.Usually, children have more flying dreams than adults, because children are more open to their possibilities, and adults have often accepted limitations imposed by society.
Teeth falling out.Food in a dream is symbolic of knowledge because food nourishes the physical body and knowledge nourishes the soul.Teeth are a means to break down food or knowledge.When your teeth fall out in a dream, it could signify that you feel ill - equipped to break down the knowledge that you have available, that the way you break things down has changed.That change can be either positive or negative.
High school dreams.High school is a place of learning from the past, and dreaming of being unprepared for a high school test can indicate a struggle to access information you need to handle in your life.
Recurring dreams and nightmares.Recurring dreams are your subconscious (潜意识)mind"s way of trying to get your attention.A recurring dream is a step down from a nightmare that is a louder, more insistent way your subconscious mind communicates.If you have a recurring dream, try to stop in the dream and identify what the dream is trying to tell you.That could mean asking someone who is chasing you what he or she wants.A woman dreamed for years that an old, haggard woman was chasing her around her home.When she finally stopped in the dream and asked the old woman what she represented, the old woman suddenly turned into a beautiful young woman and replied, "I represent your question of " what if?’ "

How do successful people think? What drives them? Interviews and investigations indicate that there are several keys to success that successful people share.
First of all, successful people never blame someone or something outside of themselves for their failure to go ahead. They realize that their future lies in their own hands. They understand that they cannot control things in life, such as nature, the past and other people. But in the meantime, they are well aware that they can control their own thoughts and actions. They take responsibility for their life and regard this as one of the most empowering things they can do. Perhaps what most separates successful people from others is that they live a life “on purpose”---- they are doing what they believe they are put here to do. In their opinion, having a purpose in their life is the most important element that enables them to become fully functioning people. They hold that when they live their life on purpose, their main concern is to do the job right. They love what they do ---- and it shows. People want to do business with them because of their commitment(忠诚). To live their life on purpose, successful people find a cause they believe in and create a business around it. Besides, they never easily give up. Once they have set up goals in their life, they are willing to work hard whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Top achievers always bear in mind what they don’t have.
Rather than be negative or depressing, they use the knowledge to spur themselves on and go after what they want energetically and passionately.
46. The underlined word “it ” refers to “____”.
A. the main concern of successful people
B. the job that successful people do
C. the commitment with which successful people do their jobs
D. the business that successful people do with other people
47. By living a life “on purpose”, successful people can do the following EXCEPT ____.
A. do a lot of work   
B. concentrate on their jobs
C. do business with many people     
D. control things in life
48. The underlined word “spur ” most probably means “____”.
A. encourage         B. excite              C. relieve       D. compel

How to improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They"11 say," my destiny(命运). I cannot change it."
Of course not! You don"t have to suffer needlessly. Your life depends on you, not on any other extemal(外部的) factor.
I know a woman who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is. She wakes up in the morning, goes to work comes back home. relaxes. chats with people, watches TV, and then goes to sleep. Next day, the same
routine cycle follows.
Huh! Is this what she calls "doing her best""? She believes she has tried her best and just accepts for her heart that this is the life that has been intended for her. and that her luck can only change if God wills it. She hasn"t realized that we have to do our share of making the effort to live the life of our dreams.
Remember that you harvest what you sow. You have to get off the sofa, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone (unless it contributes to your success), and get your mind and body to work! Don"t expect your luck to change, unless you do something about it. If something
goes wrong, don"t just regard it as a temporary setback; instead, learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It"s not enough to think positively; you also have to act positively.
If someone"s life is in trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine?Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don"t just stand (or sit )there, do something to improve your life .
45. According to the woman mentioned in Para3, her life  ________
A. doesn"t need improving            B. couldn’t be improved
C. will be better some day            D. will be worse in the future
46. What does the author think of the woman"s life?
A. Passive.    B. Positive.         C. Colorful.      D. Boring.
47. Which of the following statements is the author"s opinion?
A. Your temporary problem is not discouraging.
B. Your luck can be changed by your efforts.
C. You can only achieve success when God wills it .
D. You should treat yourself in the way you treat friends.
48. In Para.5, the author emphasized the importance of_______
A. hope for the best      B. intention to succeed
C. positive thinking      D. positive action

Happiness and sadness are states of being states of being that define the way we view the world. It is often said that some people by nature have a sunny character. Now scientists may have discovered why.
Some people may be hard-wired for happiness, while others are genetically negative, as
scientists have suggested in a study published in late February, in a British journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
Earlier research had already established that the gene known as 5-HTTLPR plays a key role in
determining how the neurotransmitter (神经传递素) serotonin (血清素) works within the brain. Serotonin, a hormone (荷尔蒙), passes chemical messages between nerve cells. It has been closely linked to mood. Several anti-depressant (抗抑郁) drugs regulate serotonin levels. Scientists had also identified three variants of the gene. Two so-called "short" variants were linked to a higher risk of depression and suicide attempts. Unlike the two "short" variants, the "long" variant of 5-HTTLPR showed a clear dislike of negative images, such as fierce animals, and a clear liking for positive ones, such as flowers.
Researchers from the University of Essex in Britain, led by Elaine Fox, showed participants a
series of images. The images were divided into three kinds: negative ones aimed at inspiring fear or stress such as a spider or person about to commit suicide, pleasant ones and neutral ones.
“The participants who had the long variant of the 5-HTTLPR gene showed a clear dislike of negative material alongside a careful attention for positive material,” the researchers found. They paid close attention to the pretty pictures, and ignored the frightening ones. On the other hand, the short variant groups had the opposite reaction.
In January, the Australian government organized "happiness workshops", teaching government
staff how to be happy. The department that held the "happiness workshops" said unhappy staff weren"t productive staff. Australian political opposition parties have argued that the "happiness workshops" are probably a waste of money and couldn"t increase productivity as intended. However, whether the workshop will have a happy or disappointing result, we will have to wait and see.
67.Form the third paragraph, we know that         .
A.affected by 5-HTTLPR, the neurotransmitter serotonin works within the blood
B.there are 5 variants of 5-HTTLPR genes which control people’s moods
C.how the neurotransmitter serotonin works is greatly determined by 5-HTTLPR
D.5-HTTLPR receives chemical messages from verve cells
68.What does “It” in the sentence “It has been closely linked to mood.” in the 3rd paragraph refer to?
A.Serotonin.          B.A nerve cell.        C.5-HTTLPR.         D.The brain.
69.If a person had the long variant of 5-HTTLPR, he or she would probably         .
A.like the images of spiders                     B.prefer the images of crocodiles
C.enjoy an image of green tress                D.suffer from depression very often
70.What can we infer from the passage?
A.People’s moods can change a little bit under the influence of certain drugs.
B.Researchers showed participants of the research two kinds of images.
C.A person possesses one long and one short variant of 5-HTTLPR at the same time.
D.The author firmly believes that “happiness workshops” will not change people’s moods.
