1.[单选题]I had decided I wanted better friends when my parents said that we were going to move again! I saw this as a perfect chance to get better friends, where people did not know of my unkind past. When we moved to California, I did not show off as I had done for five years. I did not tell everyone that I lived in Europe. I still listened to classical music, but I just kept my music to myself. Sure enough, I found that people like someone who is not typical but does not boast about it. Nothing can replace good friends, and if I had to control my temper and pride, it was well worth it.阅读选择The writer would probably agree that（）. A good friends like to listen same kind of music B friends are more important than anything else C similar background is the key to friendship D a good friend never loses his/her temper

2.[单选题]The thinking habit that changed my lifeI remember one evening three years ago, when my life was very different. I was overweight. I was deeply in debt. I was a smoker. I felt hopeless and helpless. I couldn’t change anything.Then I looked up at the sky and thought what a miracle life is. And I resolved to list the good things in my life. I had a wonder wife. I had five amazing children. I could see and appreciate the beauty of the world around me. The list went on, but you get the idea. Even when things seemed terrible for me, actually I was OK.That night I resolved to be grateful for what I had, and for people in my life. I started the habit of gratitude. Now many people consider it unimportant. I’m here to tell you it’s very important. It changes lives.Now I appreciate my wife Eva more. I feel good about having her in my life. And we have deepened our relationship. I also appreciate my kids more. Instead of criticizing them. I tend to notice their loveliness, curiosity and humor. I’m kinder to others around me, at work and everywhere else, because instead of seeing the faults in everyone, I see the good, and am grateful for them. I need less, because instead of thinking about what I don’t have, I am grateful for what I do have. Each and every moment becomes easier.Without the habit of gratitude, we tend to complain and see the bad in people and things, we can’t change that at once, but you can do something. For example, you can start with a small action. Really feel the happiness that something or someone is in your life, or take a moment to make a list of the things in your life that you’re thankful for.6 Now I have a closer relationship with my wife. A True B False C Not given

I started playing basketball when I was eight.My dad was the coach of my team，and my mom kept score.So，my sister，who wasn't old enough to stay at home alone，had to come to all of my games.She looked like she didn't want to be there，but she cheered with the crowd anyway.

When I was in high school，Christie didn't have to come to my games anymore.But she still came every week，cheering me on.I remember the last game of the season.My sister came with a large group of her friends.Printed on her shirt，in big，bright red letters，were the words "BRAD'S SISTER".Suddenly，I was embarrassed （尴尬的）.I felt embarrassed，not because she was there but because I'd never thanked her for helping me before.

My sister left for college a few months after that last game，and I am an only child now.But now that she's gone，I miss having someone to fight with for the remote a lot.

I went to visit her at college for a weekend，and as I stood outside her dorm（宿舍），waiting for her to come out，a friend of hers walked past me and questioned，"Hey，aren't you Christie's brother？" I said proudly， "Yeah，I am.I'm Christie's brother."
