Let us stop a moment and consider what really makes a friend. The major qualities like faithfulness, devotion, frien

27、dly company, flash through our minds. But it is the large number of very small particular qualities that make up ones whole character, such as cheerfulness, friendliness, and punctuality (守时). After all, “ to make a friend, be a friend” is not such a big and difficult order. There are particular fav

28、orable qualities, which attract others to us, and some elements which do have an effect on people in fundamental psychology(基础心理学) or not. If you are in the presence of a shy person, talking and asking casual (随意的) questions may bring him out of his shell. Think of what would be most acceptable to t

29、he 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.

33、hen should people be made to retire? 55? 65? Should there be a compulsory age limit? Many old people work well into their 70s and 80s, running families, countries or corporations. Other people, Z-X-X-Khowever, despite being fit and highly talented, are forced to retire in their fifties or even earli

34、er because of the regulations of a company or the nation. This essay will examine whether people should be allowed to continue working as long as they want or whether they should be encouraged to retire at a particular stage. Some people think there are several arguments for allowing older people to

35、 continue working as long as they are able. First of all, older employees have an immense amount of knowledge and experience which can be lost to a business or organization if they are made to retire. A second point is that older employees are often extremely loyal employees and are more willing to

36、carry out company policies than younger less committed staff. However, a more important point is regarding the attitudes in society to old people. To force someone to resign or retire at 60 indicates that the society does not value the input of these people and that effectively their useful life is

37、over. Age is irrelevant to a working life, surely if older employees are told they cannot work after 60, this is age discrimination. That they become old does not necessarily mean they are going to be sick. Old people could be more aware, experienced and committed than some youngsters. Others, howev

38、er, think that allowing older people to work indefinitely is not a good policy. Age alone is no guarantee of ability. Old people are only ambitious workaholics who are too selfish and self-centered to believe that a younger person could do better. Actually, many younger employees have more experienc

39、e or skills than older staff, who may have been stuck in one area or unit for most of their working lives. Having compulsory retirement allows new ideas in an organization. In addition, without age limits, however, many people would continue to work purely because they did not have any other plans o

40、r roles. A third point of view is that older people should be rewarded by society for their lifes labor by being given generous pensions and the freedom to enjoy their leisure. We now have youngsters who cant find jobs because old people are choosing not to retire. Old people are not retiring becaus

41、e this new generation of “old people” think they will never die due to modern advances in medicine. With many young people unemployed or frustrated in low-level positions, there are often calls to compulsorily retire older workers. However, this can affect the older individuals freedom and right to

42、work and can deprive(剥夺) society of valuable experience and insights. I feel that giving workers more flexibility and choice over their retirement age will benefit society and the individual.32. What is the purpose of this passage? A. To explain the compulsory age limit. B. To discuss the retirement

43、 age. C. To examine peoples working life. D. To introduce a particular stage.33. Which of the following is NOT a reason for allowing old people to continue working according to the passage? A. Their contribution should be valued. B. Their experience should be made use of. C. They can help the youngs

44、ters. D. They are loyal employees.34. It can be inferred in the fourth passage that _. A. The young people have more creative spirits B. Modern advances in medicine make old people never die C.
