         Autumn is a  3  season and life is uninteresting. The free days always get me  4 . But one day, the
    sound of a violin  5  into my ears like a stream flowing in the mountains. I was so surprised that I jumped
    to see what it was. A young girl, standing in the wind, was  6  in playing her violin.
         I had  7 seen her before. The music was so attractive(有吸引力) that I listened quietly. Lost in the
    music, I didn't realize that I had been  8  there for so long but my  9  did not seem to disturb(打扰) her.
         Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the violin in the corner of the building 10  I went
    downstairs to watch her performance. I was the only audience. The autumn seemed no longer lonely and
    life became 11 .  12 we didn't know each other, I thought we were already good friends. I believed she

         Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don't give friendship back. That is why
    some friendships don't last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat
    your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three
    rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.
         Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell
    the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out you haven't been honest, you may lose friend's trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.
         Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grows. You do not have to give your lunch
    money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very
    valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend
    know better.
         Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at
    school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in
    solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in
    your friend's place so you can understand the problem later.
         No two friendships are very exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you
    plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.

    1. Some friendships don't last very long because _______.

    A. there are too many people who want to make friends.
    B. some people receive friendship but don't give friendship back.
    C. those who give others friendship receive friendship from others.
    D. they don't know friendship is something serious.

    2. According to the passage, honesty is _______.

    A. something countable    
    B. the base of friendship
    C. as important as money    
    D. more important than anything else

    3. Which of the following isn't mentioned in the passage?

    A. Always tell your friends the truth.
    B. Sharing your mind with your friends is of great value.
    C. Discussing your problems with your friend often helps to solve the problem.
    D. A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.

         For years I wanted a flower garden, but with five children I was too busy to have one. Money was
    limited, and so was time. Often one of the children would want something that cost too much, and I
    would say,  "Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees, you know." Finally, when
    all five had gotten through high school and college, and had started having their own families, I started
    thinking again about having a garden. However, I knew gardens cost money.
         Then, one spring morning on Mother's Day, as I was working in my kitchen, I heard cars drive by and
    looked out of the window to see a new tree planted in my yard. I couldn't believe my eyes: it was a money tree! Dollar bills were stuck all over that tree, and there was a note which read: "I owe you eight hours of
    digging time. Love, Marvin."
         Marvin, my first son, kept his promise. He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen-foot bed(花坛,花圃) for me. My other children bought me tools, a sunflower stepping stone(踏脚石) and gardening books. We built
    a garden together.
         That was three years ago. My garden is now very pretty, and just what I'd always wanted. When I
    go out to weed or tend my flowers, I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels as if
    they were right there with me. When I think about what my children have done for me, I get tears in my
    eyes every time.
         I'm still not sure whether money grows on trees. But I know love does!

    1. Why had the author never had a flower garden before?

    A. Because she had five children to take care of.
    B. Because she didn't have enough time and money.
    C. Because her children wanted expensive things.
    D. Because her children were going to high school and college.

    2. Why doesn't she miss her children as much as she once did?

    A. Because she has a big money tree.
    B. Because she has a very pretty garden.
    C. Because she feels the love of her children in the garden.
    D. Because she is busy weeding or tending her flowers.

    3. Which of the flowing statements is correct, based on the passage?

    A. Money grows on trees only if you plant them with love.
    B. The author built a pretty garden after her children had graduated from school.
    C. The author actually wanted to have money grow on trees.
    D. The children loved their mother so much that they helped her realize her dream.

    4. The purpose of this passage is to tell us_________.

    A. how to grow you own money tree
    B. the story of pretty garden
    C. the story of a money tree
    D. a story of the love between a mother and her children

         Nowadays everybody seems to think that they know English. Many people speak it but few speak it
    really well. Practice is necessary in speaking English well.
          Reading is also one of the things that will help you to speak English better. Read whenever you can
    and whatever you like! Read papers and Internet sites that you like in English every day. Then, you will

    match the excitement and happiness when a native speaker tells you that your English is very good!

    playing the piano. Pianists play it every day and so should you. Include English in your life and you will
    see where it is going. Practice, practice! Read, write and improve your language skills and you are on
    you way when you will be able to speak it with more and more confidence!

         All over the world people enjoy sports; sports help to keep people healthy and happy, and to live
    longer.
         Many people like to watch others play games. They buy tickets or turn on their TVs to watch the
    games. Often they get very excited when "their" player or team wins.
