Small talk means little things we talk about at the start of the conversation. In English speaking countries people often make small talk about the weather. “Nice day, isn’t it?” “Terrible weather, isn’t it?” But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something that both people have the same opinion about. The purpose of small talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. People usually agree about the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk in English. The topics for small talk about the game they are watching, “Great game, isn’t it?” At bus stops, people may comment about the transport system, “The bus service is terrible, isn’t it?”‎ Greetings and small talk are important parts of conversation in any language. The way people greet each other and the things they talk about ,however, may be different from one language to another. This shows that there is much more to learn when we learn a language than just the vocabulary and the grammar of the language. We also have to learn the social behavior of the people who speak it.‎ ‎31. Small talk is __________.‎ A. a kind of conversation with short words B. a greeting when people meet each other C. to let people disagree about something D. something we talk about to start with a conversation ‎32. The favorite topic of small talk is about __________.‎ A. the weather B. politics C. games D. languages ‎33. The text suggests that when we learn a language ___________.‎ A. we should learn about the transport system of the country B. we should only master the grammar and vocabulary C. we should know the culture about the country D. we should know the importance of the language ‎34. When we say “Great game, isn’t it?”, we in fact ________.‎ A. ask a question B. have a conversation C. greet each other D. begin a small talk B I didn’t have many friends growing up. I didn’t realise what I was missing until I met Alicia. We met in a history class my freshman year of college. The first time we hung out, she asked me a question to test my character.‎ ‎“If you were in a sinking boat, would you try to fix it or just build a new one?” I admit I was a little upset at the question; I didn’t know how big the boat was, or how much water was in it, or if I even had any tools for rebuilding. I never gave her a straight answer! But our friendship began.‎ We went walking, doing things in the dorms and studied togther in coffee shops. She was a bridesmaid(伴娘) in my wedding, and we both walked 100 miles an hour. People even thought we were sisters because we looked alike in pictures. I really loved having a best friend. Yet as time went, we found ourselves in a trouble.‎ We were very different from each other. Lighthearted differences of opinion quickly turned into heated discussions, and it seemed to take a lot of work to keep the relationship. For a while, it just wasn’t fun—it was a trouble to be together. At times we both just wanted to give up. I have to ‎ admit that if it had been up to me, our friendship would have ended. Why push something that just isn’t working anymore?‎ But Alicia saw something in me that was worth keeping. I know she swallowed more of her pride than I did. Now, I’m extremely glad we worked things out. Next to my husband and my sister, she is my closest friend. Even though we reach life from entirely different world views, we often find ourselves helping others together and seeing results only God could have brought. What a surprising life lesson God has taught us about forgiveness! Now, our differing opinions are easy to laugh about. She can eat her vanilla while I have my chocolate.‎ ‎35. When did “I” meet Alicia?‎ A. When I was a child. B. When I was a college student.‎ C. After I began to work. D. When I hung out with her.‎ ‎36. Why do people think Alicia and “I” are sisters?‎ A.

God ‎ C If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important things to remember about reading rate:‎ Know why you are reading or what you are reading to find out. This will often help you to know whether to read quickly or slowly.‎ Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing something, math problems, science and history books. They are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important ideas.‎ Some things should be read quickly throughout. Examples are simple stories meant for enjoyment, new letters from friends, pieces of news from local, or hometown, papers. They are telling what is happening to friends and neighbors.‎ In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go along.

Whether it is a shopping bag, a food bag or a trash bag, they are all made of plastic. Grocery store owners are very generous（慷慨的） in using plastic bags. They place the fruit in one bag and drop the box of milk in another. Ever wonder why?‎ The good side of plastic bags Grocery stores, shopping centers, and restaurants are not thrifty in using and giving out plastic bags because they cost no more than a cent each,while a paper bag costs four cents. Plastic bags are produced so cheaply and massively（大量地） that they are used by 80% of store owners. In addition,they are light and very easy to carry and store.‎ The production of plastic bags has increased greatly over the last 20 years and producers of plastic bags are making large profits（利润）. However, the bad side of plastic bags is becoming well-known. More people are now getting worried that the earth is becoming a victim（受害者） of the plastic bag success story.‎ The bad side of plastic bags While production and use of plastic bags is good for business, it is not so for our Mother Earth. They have resulted in an increase in the amount of litter found floating in water or in the streets where we live.‎ Plastic storage bags, after usage, usually go to landfills as trash bags. They make the oceans dirty. They kill sea animals. They give off bad gases when burned. They simply pollute the ground, air and water.‎ That is the true cost of plastic bags and it looks like it is more than a cent. These are very alarming concerns and proper action needs to be taken.‎ ‎42. What is this passage mainly about?‎ ‎ A. Why people use plastic bags. B. The harm of using plastic bags.‎ ‎ C. How to prevent the use of plastic bags. D. The good and bad sides of plastic bags.‎ ‎43.
