So when they lie, it can be really hard to take. You want to trust your friends and that means knowing that theyll tell it to you straight no matter what it is. But a friend who lies isnt always trying to hurt you. Why does this happen? Protect your feelings One of the biggest reasons friends lie is simply to avoid hurting your feelings. Some people dont understand the difference between being gently honest with a friend and being so straightforward (直截了当的) that they leave a verbal wound. They choose to avoid these two extremes in the form of a lie. What you can do: Encourage your friends to be straight with you. No matter what their answer is, let them know you are grateful for it. They feel embarrassed Sometimes friends will lie about things in their life because they are too embarrassed to admit the truth. Maybe they are going through a rough time and they just dont want you to know about it. What you can do: Avoid trying to badger (纠缠) your friends into telling you whats wrong. Instead, make it clear that you are there for them when and if they are ready to talk. Avoid an argument with you Perhaps your friends know that if they tell you the truth,youll get angry with them. Avoiding conflict is not always healthy for a friendship because it allows problems to grow over time. If you have a bad temper(脾气),your friend might try and avoid getting into an argument with you and instead just tell you what you want to hear. What you can do: Make sure that if a friend tells you something unpleasant, you dont overreact. Consider whats being said and why your friend is telling you this. If you do end up arguing, do it in a respectable way. Exclude you Lying isnt always a sign that friends are trying to protect you, however. Sometimes they lie because they want to exclude you from their plans. What you can do: When you find out with certainty that your friend is lying to you, try and face it. Be forewarned, however, that if a friend lies to begin with, he or she may lie when asked a direct question about his or her dishonesty. Go with your guts on this. If you feel your friend is lying because he or she doesnt want to be around you, thats your wake-up call to move on.24.According to the passage, friends sometimes lie _.A.out of respect B.in a straight wayC.under social influences D.because the truth hurts25.When you find a friend lying, you are advised to _.A.let it go B.take it personallyC.handle it respectably D.break up with him or her26.What is the implied meaning of the underlined part? A.Have the courage to handle the situation. B. Accept the truth that you are being lied to.C.Go to have a fight with whoever lies to you. D.Base your judgment on your understanding.27.Whats the passage mainly about?A.Ways to avoid telling lies. B.Ways to promote friendship.C.Reasons for making friends. D.Reasons for lies and solutions.C.As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location (位置) better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called transactive memory (交互记忆)According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesnt mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.28.The passage begins with two questions to _.A.introduce the main topic B.show the authors altitudeC.describe how to use the Internet D.explain how to store information29.What can we learn about the first experiment?A.The Sparrows team typed the information into a computer.B.The two groups remembered the information equally well.C.The first group did not try to remember the information.D.The second group did not understand the information.30.In transactive memory, people _.A.keep the information in mind B.change the quantity of informationC.organize information like a computer D.remember how to find the information31.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrows research?A.We are using memory differently. B.We are becoming more intelligent.C.We have poorer memories than before. D.We need a better way to access information.D.Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many childrens lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.According to the reports key findings, the proportion (比例) who say they 4 hardly ever read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2-8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel (建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom (逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.32.What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?A.Childrens reading habits. B.Quality of childrens books.C.Childrens after-class activities. D.Parent-child relationships.33.Where can you find the data that best supports children are reading a lot less for fun?A.In Paragraph 2.B.In Paragraph 3.C.In Paragraph 4.D.In Paragraph 5.34.Why do many parents limit electronic reading?A.E-books are of poor quality.B.It could be a waste of time.C.It may harm childrens health.D.E-readers are expensive.35.How should parents encourage their children to read more?A.Act as role models for them.B.Ask them to write book reports.C.Set up reading groups for them.D.Talk with their reading class teachers.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，共10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Dylan Siegel and Jonah Poumazarian have been best friends since they met in preschool. “We do lots of fun things together，” says Dylan. “We like to play basketball and play on the swings.
