say that they are working too many hours. they dont have enough time to relax or to stay with their family. work hours are different from one country to another. in france, people spend about 1,646 hours a year at work. in japan, however, people work about 2,159 hours a year. that means a japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a french worker. why do people work so many hours? some people work extra hours because they want to make more money. however, many companies dont pay overtime. their workers dont get more money for more work. some people think its their duty to work more hours. some are afraid of losing their jobs if they dont work more hours. many people say that their vacations are too short. in france, people get five weeks of paid vacation a year. in germany, they get four to six weeks, and in the united states, two weeks. one study shows fewer than half of workers used all their vacation days. in great britain, there is a saying, “all work and no play makes jack a dull (迟钝的) boy.” if that is true, there must be a lot of dull people in the world. 61. a japanese worker works _ more hours a year than a french one. a. 513 b. 1,646c. 2,519d. 3,80562.the

enough. c. work hours are the same around the world. d. there are a lot of dull people in the world.【 c 】 too many people want others to be their friends, but they dont give friendship（友谊） back. that is why some friendships dont last（持续） very long. to have a friend, you must learn to treat （对待）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 means being honest. it is where a good friendship starts. friends must be able to trust one another. if you dont tell the truth, people usually find out. if a friend finds out that you havent been honest, you may lose your friends trust. good friends always count on（依赖） one another to speak and act honestly.generositymeans sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. you dont have to give your friend your lunch money or your clothes, or enjoy your hobbies and interests together. naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. these can be very valuable（有价值的） to a friend. they tell your friend what is important to you. by sharing them, you help your friend know you 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 friends place, so you can understand the problem better.no two friendships are ever exactly alike (相同). but all true friendships have three things in common(共同的). if you plan to keep your friendships, you must practice honesty,generosity and understanding.66. some friendships dont last very long because .a. there are too many people who want to make friends b. they dont know friendship is something seriousc. those who give others friendships receive friendships from othersd. they dont return friendship to each other.67. according to the passage（根据这篇文章） , honesty is . a. as important as money b. more important than anything else c. something countable d. the base（基础） of a friendship 68. which of the following is not true in the passage?a. a friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend. b. always tell your friend the truth.c. discussing your problems with your friend often helps to solve the problem.d. sharing your mind with your friend is very valuable.69. according to the author, how do you help your friend know you better?a. ask your friend for everything b. dont tell the truth to your friendc. share your ideas and feelings with your friend d. give your lunch money or your clothes to your friend.70. the best title（题目） of this passage is .a. a friend in need is a friend indeed b. honesty is the best habitc. how to be a friend d. three important points in life五、任务型阅读。阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。（共10小题；每小题1分，计10分）（每空一词）the internet has become not only a necessary but also a virtual (虚拟的) world for people

the same as making pen friends . many famous websites provide very warm internet friendship. one can find many people on these websites and they share the same interests.it is difficult to make
