Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls. It is very natural for the boys and girls to make friends with each other. We should make as many friends as possible. We should get along with the other sex in public instead of in secret.Dont be too nervous or too shy. If you are a shy person, you can also find a way out. First of all, you can make friends with the students who have the same interest and hobby as you. As both of you have much in common, you may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others.Dont fall into the ditch of early love. Boys and girls in adolescence (青春期) are rich in feelings. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, early love is a green apple that cant be eaten. An apple wont taste sweet until it is fully ripe. Boys and girls at middle school are too young to carry the heavy duty of love. Do keep out of early love.（1）The main idea of the passage is to _.A . tell students to keep away from early loveB . give some advice on how to associate(交往) between boys and girlsC . tell students how to make friendsD . teach boys how to talk with girls（2）We should get along with the other sex in the following ways EXCEPT _.A . with a good state of mindB . in real friendshipC . in publicD . in secret（3）If you are a shy person, you can _.A . find friends with the same interest and hobby firstB . only have a few friends of the same sexC . not make friends with the other sexD . not fall in love with other students easily I（4）The underlined word ditch in the passage means_ in Chinese.A . 波浪B . 泥潭C . 圈套D . 树枝（5）A person at adolescence is _.A . complicated(复杂的) in feelingsB . good at making friends with each otherC . old enough to fall in loveD . easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love五、 七选五 (共2题；共10分)14. （5分）情景交际: 从方框中选择合适的选项补全对话(有两个多余选项)。A: Hi
