No one can live a completely isolated life. Without other people, life became empty and sad. We all need to have friends.For some of us, though making friends is not difficult, feeling sheepish, we may not want to make the first move. It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegies How to Win Friends and Influence People, written in 1936, is the most famous. This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best seller. It was later put into 28 languages.Dale Carnegies advice seems to be simple, but can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book:（1）Be friendly and polite.Always greet with a smile. Begin with “excuse me ” or “would you please” when you want to ask somebody. Remember to say “thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.（2）Go out of your way to be nice.Find some time to do special things for other people. Making some soup for a sick neighbour may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your neighbour feel a lot better.（3）Remember names.They say that the sweetest music to a persons ears is the sound of his or her own name.（4）Be open-minded.Try to understand other peoples ways and ideas and learn something form them.（5）Listen patiently.When someone is talking to you, look at him or her, listen carefully and say something when necessary.45The best title for this passage should be “_”.A、How to Make FriendsB、A Famous BookC、About FriendshipD、John Donne and Dale Carnegie46Some of us feel it not easy to make friends because_.A、we are afraid to make bad friendsB、we are too shy to take the first actionC、we feel worried that we wont be able to keep our friendsD、we fell sure that we already have enough friends47We can learn from this passage that_.A、John Donne learned something from Dale CarnegieB、friends are always friendsC、few people bought Carnegies bookD、the writer of this passage agrees with John Donne and dale Carnegie48Which of the following is NOT mentioned（提及）in Carnegies book?A、Say “excuse me” before you ask.

In February of 1974, Bill Tapp, an Australian farmer saw a rain of fish that covered his farm. How surprised he must have been when he heard many fish hitting against his roof!What caused this strange occurrence? This is a question that had long puzzled people who study fish. The answer turned out to be a combination of wind and storm.When it is spring in the northern part of the world, it is fall in Australia. Throughout the autumn season, terrible storms arise and rains flood the land. The strong winds sweep over Australia like huge vacuum cleaners, collecting seaweed. pieces of wood, and even schools of fish. Strong winds may carry these bits of nature for many miles before vacuum dropping them on fields, houses, and astonished people.Although they seem unusual. fish-falls occur quite frequently in Australia. When Bill Tapp was asked to describe the scene of fish. He remarked. “They look like millions of dead birds falling down. “ His statement is not surprising. The wonders of the natural world are as common as rain. Nature, with its infinite wonders, can create waterfalls that flow upward and fish that fall out of the sky.49.What is this passage about?A.A sad story. B. A rain of fish.C.Australias northern part.
