Ⅱ.阅读

A

Before you make friends, you have to decide who you want to be your friends. Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things they do.

The quickest way to make a friend is to smile. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. It may not be easy at first to smile, but remember most people will stay away from a scared or angry looking.

One easy way to start a conversation with someone is to say something nice about him. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn't it make you want to keep talking to that person?

Ask your new friends questions about themselves. Who's their favourite singer, where do they live, what do they do after school are all good questions to start a conversation. Make sure you have something to add to the conversation, too. When someone asks you a question, do have an answer for it. There is nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a_shrug_for_an_answer.

Kids who show an interest in other kids and who are kind and friendly make good friends. Remember, everyone wants to be around people who like to do similar things and people who are nice to them.

篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何交朋友给出了一些建议。最快捷的方式是微笑，以赞美的方式开始对话，还要志趣相投，这样才能交到更多的朋友。

2．Most people like to make friends with those ________.

A．who are sad every day

B．who share the same interest

C．who are fond of talking

D．who say bad things to them

Samuel looked at his sister, Emily, and said, “I wouldn't have thought Everett would be a thief.” Emily replied, “Whoa, we don't know that for sure.” Samuel said, “But who else could it be? He was there, he had them in his hands, and now they are missing.”

Samuel remembered two days ago when he had brought out his coin collection for Everett to see. At the end of that day, Samuel's mother asked him to take a note to Mr Bates down the street, so he asked his friend, “Is it okay if I leave you for a few minutes？” Everett had said, “Go ahead. I'll clean up here.” pointing at the piles of coins on the floor. When Samuel had returned, he had done his homework, had eaten dinner, and had read for a while before bed. It was not until two days later that he realized the quarters were gone.

Emily said, “Why don't you just ask him？” “Ask him what? Hey, Best Friend, did you steal my coin collection？” Samuel thought for a moment, deciding if that would be a good idea. The theft of his collection left him with a feeling of betrayal (背叛). “How could I have misjudged my friend？”

The next day Samuel went over to Everett's house. Everett was acting funny. In fact, Samuel thought Everett was acting like someone with a secret. Suddenly, Everett cried, “I can't stand it anymore！” and pulled something from underneath the chair. “Go on—open it! I was going to wait until your birthday tomorrow, but I can't wait！”

Slowly, Samuel lifted the top of the box. Laid out in front of him were all of the quarters from his coin collection. Each quarter was in its own place in a new collection case. Each quarter shone like it was new.

Samuel felt heat rush over his neck and ears. He weakly said, “Thank you—this means  ...  a great deal to me.” He was thankful that Everett had cut him off before he said something bad. Everett was exactly the type of person he wanted as a friend！

When Lina was awoken by the sound of thunder, she was alone on the island. The air was cool and bullfrogs croaked (呱呱叫). It was that brief moment when the summer sun had set but the stars hadn't yet appeared. Lina rubbed her eyes and looked around.

 “Hello？” she called. “Celia? Marie？”

There was no response.

The moon was rising now, shedding light on the island. They had always called it “Forgotten Island” because only they seemed to remember its existence. It wasn't on any of the maps they could find, and even the forest rangers didn't know about it. Lina loved that the island, hidden in a heavily－wooded side stream of the river, was a secret among the three friends—Celia, Marie, and her.

But now Lina was here alone, and it was night. Worse still, it was her own fault.

“Come on, Lina, let Marie row the boat，” Celia had said. Marie was two years older than Lina, but she was a hopeless rower. That's why Lina refused and rowed the boat to the island. The argument that followed the refusal took the usual form. Celia took Marie's side, as she always did. Lina had exploded and yelled at them to just leave. So they got back in the boat and left.

A bolt of lightning crossed the darkened sky, accompanied by a deafening thunder clap. The storm was here. As the first cold raindrop slid down her neck, Lina's mind returned to her current problem. She was stuck here by herself. She just hoped she didn't become as forgotten as the island. The thought of it sent a chill (寒意) down her back.

Suddenly, Lina spotted something in the water. It was a boat, and inside it were Celia, Marie, and Marie's dad, who was steering through the fast flowing water. As the boat approached, they saw Lina waving and the worried expressions on their faces turned to relief.

In her excitement Lina jumped into the river. Only once she was in the icy water did she remember how fast the water was moving. Luckily a strong arm reached into the water and pulled her out. She smiled weakly at Marie's dad and, without a word, hugged Celia and Marie. They didn't seem to mind becoming wet.

篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Lina(莉娜)与Marie(玛丽)和Celia(西莉亚)三个女孩子之间闹矛盾到和好的故事。

8．What can be inferred about the island?

A．It is very near the ocean.

B．It is a popular place for boating.

C．It is surrounded by thick forest.

D．It has never been reached by others.

答案：C　推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句中的“hidden in a heavily－wooded side stream of the river”可推知，这个岛是被茂密的森林围绕着的，故选C。

9．Why did Lina get angry?

A．Marie would not help row the boat.

B．She was left alone on the island.

C．Marie didn't know how to row the boat.

D．Celia supported Marie in the disagreement.

答案：D　细节理解题。根据第六段倒数第二、三句“Celia took Marie's side, as she always did. Lina had exploded and yelled at them to just leave.”可知，因为Celia支持Marie，所以Lina非常生气。故选D。

10．What caused Lina to feel a chill?

A．Her shame about the unnecessary argument.

B．The first raindrop of the approaching storm.

C．The idea that no one would come to save her.

D．The drop in temperature as the sun went down.

答案：C　细节理解题。根据倒数第三段的描述尤其是最后两句“She just hoped she didn't become as forgotten as the island. The thought of it sent a chill (寒意) down her back.”可知，在这样恶劣的天气里，一个人夜晚孤身滞留在一个荒岛上，她一想到自己会像这座岛一样被别人遗忘，就感到后背发冷。故选C。

11．Who pulled Lina out of the water?

A．Marie's father.  B．Lina herself.

C．Marie.  D．Celia.

答案：A　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Luckily a strong arm reached into the water and pulled her out. She smiled weakly at Marie's dad”可推知，当时是Marie的父亲把Lina从水里拉了出来，故选A。
