More and more people are increasingly turning towards their friends for support and sharing rather than just communicating with their relatives. We may have a very unclear understanding of what makes a friend but we all want to have many good friends around us. There are certain steps that can win you friends or at least help you get close to those whom you want to make friends with.The first step to make friends with someone is to make him like you. If they dont like you in the first place, it is unlikely that theyll be eager to become your friends. To let someone know that you are interested in him, simple gestures like a little smile and calling him by his name can help. To make the other person feel important, you need to be a good listener and encourage the other person to talk. Give your honest and real opinions but do not make fun of him or her. The second step is to develop a full consideration between each other. You need to share his or her opinions. So, it is necessary for you to develop a habit of seeing things from the other persons point of view. To become a best friend, you must show concern and consideration for your friends desires and opinions. The third and final step is to show your support and encouragement towards your friend. Moreover, you also need to be very clear about your expectations from your friend. If what you expect from the person you want to make friends with matches with what that person can and want to do in friendship, the developing friendship between you and your friend is sure to be easy and successful.56. What can we learn about friends and friendship?A. Friendship is less important in our life.B. Friends do harm to our health and energy.C. Friends can provide us with support.D. Relatives can not become friends. 57. Which is the right order of making friends according to the writer?When you meet some questions, you ask him for help. When he is in trouble, you tell him your idea. You smile to him to make him know that you like him.A. B. C. D. 58. What is the main purpose of the writer in writing the passage?A. To tell us the importance of making friends.B. To tell about advantages and disadvantages of making friends.C. To tell us how to make friends step by step.D.

The following two graphs are adopted from the column of “City Information on the webpage of Beijing Review.Graph 2: Chinese National StandardAPI ValuesLevels of health concernColorsWhen the API is in this range:.air quality conditions are:.as symbolized by this color:0 to 50Very goodBlue51 to 100GoodGreen101 to 150Slight pollutionYellow151 to 200Moderate pollutionOrange201 to 250Medium pollutionRed251 to 300High pollutionPurple301 to 500HazardousBrownNotes: *API stands for Air Pollution Index(指数). *Particulate matter (PM10) is a major component of air pollution that threatens both our health and our environment.

People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killers. For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someones life as nothing.Cold can affect other parts of the body. The expression “get cold feet has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agree to be president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.The expression “give someone the cold shoulder probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you. Or, to someone who has lied about you to others.A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted. Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy. Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their lovers. Out in the cold means not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise-he was left out in the cold. And it is not a pleasant place to be.63. There are _ expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passage.A. 3B. 4C. 6D. 764. If Sue shows absolutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa, you will say _.A. she is a cold-blooded killerB. she gets cold feetC. she is a cold fishD. she is out in the cold65. We can use the expression “_ to describe a man who abandons or hurts his lover without mercy.A. cold-bloodedB. cold shoulderC. cold feetD. cold-hearted66. The topic of this passage is about _.A. the relationship between cold and our bodyB. some expressions about friendshipC. s
