You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime. You want to have new friends, but how do you make them? Maybe it seems that everybody else already has their friends. But remember, theres always room formore friends. Start by looking around your classroom think about which kids youd like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation(欣赏)to them. Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom. When youre at break, walk over to kids you want to play with and say “Hi, can I play, too?” or justjoin in.If you find it difficult to do thisor if youre feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends.Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends.

The poor little girl had a very serious disease and was dying. The doctor had done his best but no medicine really worked. The only chance to save her seemed to be a blood transfusion(输血) from her five-year-old brother. The little boy had the same disease before and had developed the antibodies(抗体) to fight the illness. The doctor talked to the little boy about what they planned to do, and asked him if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate(迟疑) for a moment. He took a deep breath and said, Yes, Ill do it if it can save Lisa. As the transfusion was going on, the little boy lay quietly in bed next to his sister. He 1ooked at her and smiled all the time. When everything was done and the colour returned to his sisters face, his smile disappeared and he looked a little afraid. He 1ooked up at the doctor and asked, “Will I start to die now?” He was too young to understand the doctor. He thought he would have to give all his blood to his sister, but he agreed.49. What happened to the little girl named Lisa? A. She died of a very serious disease. B. She got better with the antibodies from her brother. C. She lost her little brother. D. The transfusion failed and her illness got worse.50. How did the five-year-old boy understand the doctors plan? A. He thought he was going to lose all his blood. B. He thought he was going to be killed. C. He thought he was going to die together with his sister. D. He thought he was going to die when he grew up.51. The writer still remember the story many years later_. A. because the little girl had a very strange disease B. because the sister and brother had the same disease C. because the doctor saved the little girls life D. because of what the boy did for his sisterCIts said that you are who your friends are.The other day I came across a few local musicians and happened to hear them talking: I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They cant even understand a bit of music. Im never playing in that club again. Too many drunks(醉鬼) and nobody listens to us. But one younger musician said, There are a few clubs that book me a few nights a month, and Im trying to find other places to play. Im also looking forward to booking a few summer festivals this year. Attitudes(态度) are important. Theyre rubbing off on you. If youre always around people who complain about short of work and about other musicians or say bad words about others, and you play the role of a victim(牺牲品), its possible that you will start to as well. So its time to take a look at the people you call friends, as what kind of friends you have decides what kind of life you are going to live. This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you often go out with, and simply stop spending time with the people who often say bad words. Set a new standard(标准) for yourself and dont become friends with people who fall below that standard. Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it and learn from them. Ask if they will help you get the work youre looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.52.

A. young people have greater chances of being successful B. people have poor taste in music C. people have different attitudes towards the same thing D. the musicians live a poor life53.
