A man with good manners doesn't hurt others? feelings, and therefore he's on good terms with everyone. In this way he helps to keep the peace in society.But a man with bad manners has no respect for others. He uses words carelessly and behaves rudely towards others and causes a lot of unpleasantness. In the end, he himself will suffer the most. Everyone avoids him and he is forced to live alone.To live well in society, money alone is not enough. Even the richest man cannot afford to have bad manners. He may have enough money to buy all things he wants; but if his manners are bad, he will have no friends, and no one can live happily without friends.We should have good manners, fbr it's human nature to try to get friendship; and friendship has to be earned through our own attitude towards others. If we are kind to others, they will be kind to us, and kindness is the most basic quality of good manners. Bad manners drive away friends as well as our own family members.On the other hand, a man with good manners has many friends. He commands the respect of all those who come into contact with him. He doesn't talk ill about others. Even when he's provoked, he tries his best not to upset others. He also feels sorry about the weak and the disabled.There are, however, many people who behave so well outside their homes that they are respected by everyoneoutside. But in their own homes they are worse than the devil （魔鬼）.Such people cannot be said to have good manners. Their behavior will soon be discovered by others.If one's manners are good, one behaves well everywhere, even when one is away from the critical （爱拟K易ij 的） eyes of others. Only such a person can live well in society.39. People with good manners bring society.A. peaceB. enjoymentC. respectD. friendshipWhat does the author mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 4 ?A.

Good manners are important.D. People with bad manners can't live well.Diet drinks may taste good, but they might not bring happiness. A new study finds that people who drink diet sodas or fruit drinks are more likely to be diagnosed （诊I断）with depression.The study doesn't show that diet drinks cause depression and the researchers stress their findings don't provide an explanation. They looked at more than 263,900 U.S. adults ages 50 to 71 who answered questions about their beverage （饮料）consumption （摄入量）between the years 1995 and 1996. About 10 years later （from 2004 to 2006）, the same people were asked if a doctor had diagnosed them with depression since the year 2000.People who regularly drank four or more cans of any type of soda a day were 30 percent more likely to have received a diagnosis of depression than people who did not drink soda, said Dr. Honglei Chen of the National Institutes of Health, who led the study. The risk of depression was especially high for people who drank diet soda 一 a 31 percent increased risk compared to a 22 percent increased risk for those who drank regular soda, the researchers said.Those who drank four or more cans of diet fruit drinks were 51 percent more likely to be diagnosed with depression compared to those who did not drink diet fruit drinks.By contrast, people who drank four or more cups of coffee a day were 10 percent less likely to have been diagnosed with depression compared to non-coffee drinkers.The study only found an association, and did not determine (确定)whether diet soda or fruit drinks caused depression. Although the researchers took into account factors that could affect the results, such as age, sex, education, smoking status, physical activity, body mass index (BM1) and energy intake, it's possible other circumstances, such as a family history of depression or stressful life events, could explain the association.A family history of depression and stressful life events are some of the biggest predictors of depression, said Emma Robertson-Blackmore, assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Rochester Medical Center, who was not involved in the study. In addition, older people are more likely to experience stressful life events, including the death of a loved one, job changes or illnesses, Robertson-Blackmore said.However, the findings agree with those of a few previous studies that found a link between frequent consumption of sweetened beverages and a higher prevalence (流行程度)of depression, the researchers said. (Diet sodas and fruit drinks are sweetened, but their sweeteners contain no calories.)“More research is needed to confirm these findings, and people with depression should continue to take depression medications prescribed by their doctors J said Chen.41.

The underlined phrase “took into account“ means.A. checked outB. went throughC. drew a conclusionD. paid attention to43. What can we learn from Dr. Honglei Chen's study?A. Diet drinks taste good but they don't always bring happiness.B Drinking a lot of diet drinks regularly will lead to depression.C. There is a close connection between diet drinks and depression.D. Stressful life events can explain why people may feel depressed.44. What is the purpose of the writer writing the article?A. To find out why diet drinking leads to depression.B. To present findings on diet drinking and depression.C. To warn us against drinking diet soda or fruit drinks.D. To suggest a healthy way of drinking for a better life.四、任务型阅读I'm David and I've been living in the United States fbr over ten years, and I now say thank you about 50 times a day. Often I do it without thinking. I say thank you to the cashier at the coffee shop. I say thank you to my wife and my 5-year-old daughter several times a day for different things. When 1 first moved to the United States, I didn't know 1 was supposed to thank someone who took my money for something I bought at a store. I had no idea I was supposed to thank people when they asked how I was doing.I grew up in the northern Indian city of Lucknow, in a culture in which saying thank you is not done lightly. I learned to say thank you in English when I was in elementary school. And when I thanked anyone, I said it in English, which was less embarrassing and more casual than doing so in Hindi. I saved my thanks for those who had done huge favors for me. And I didn't thank my friends or classmates very often. When I did, they regarded the act as a playful way to practise English.Saying dhanyavaad, or thank you in Hindi, to someone without looking at him or her is just as good as not saying it at all. As a kid, I heard my father say dhanyavaad to people of his age, and he did it as ser
