Now we know that getting along with other people is something that we can work at. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better. One way is being unselfish, not wanting everything from our friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad points in other people. It is surprising how successful this treasure hunt can be.You do not have to be spineless (优柔寡断的) in order to be popular. In fact, you will be liked or loved if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights (正当行为). But do it politely and pleasantly. Being friendly and polite to your group, to other people and to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you is one way to develop a good character.You cannot expect to be perfect, and you must learn not to be unhappy when you make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed if he does not refuse to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged (灰心丧气的) when they know in themselves qualities that they do not likeselfishness, laziness, and other unpleasant qualities. Just remember that we all have some of these faults (缺点) and have to fight against them.At the same time, it is important to remember that while you are probably no worse than others, the best way to be happy is to think yourself above other people. When something is wrong, it is good sense to try to make it right. Perhaps you do not like a teacher or a classmate. Try to see why, and look at yourself, too, to be sure that you are not doing anything to make that person dislike you. Some day, things may turn out all right when you have to learn to get along the best with the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you cannot change.（1）One of the two ways the writer suggests for us to get along with others is to _. A . work hard at everything we doB . enjoy the best share of everythingC . look for treasure in order to be successfulD . pay more attention to their strong points（2）If a person wants to be popular, he or she has to _. A . be polite and friendlyB . give up some rightsC . get away arguing with other peopleD . be ready to change his or her character（3）There is no person but someone should be blamed if he or she _. A . is modest and generousB . is selfish and lazyC . does not draw a lesson from his or her own faultD . is very happy with unpleasant quality（4）The purpose for the writer to write the passage is to _. A . train you to be perfectB . show you the way to be happyC . tell you how to act when you dislike a personD . teach you how to be popular among your friends15. （8分） Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to connect the brain with computers. Braincomputer interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.Recently, two scientists, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytehnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, show a small robotic wheelchair directed by a persons thoughts.In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.“Our brain has billions of body cells(细胞). These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓) to the body part to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries(脊柱受伤) or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the body part.” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with outer world and also to control machines.”The scientists designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer finds meanings of the signals and commands the wheelchair with an engine. The wheelchair also has two cameras that tell objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.Prof. Millan , the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that finds meanings of brain signals and turns them into simple commands.” The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two kinds: communication, and controlling objects. One example is this wheelchair.”He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can get advantages from. And the other is sure that they can use the technology for long.（1）BCI is a technology that can_.A . help to make computer systems more modernB . connect the human brain with computersC . help the disabled to be healthierD . control a persons thoughts（2）Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?A . scalpcomputercapwheelchairB . computercapscalpwheelchairC . scalpcapcomputerwheelchairD . capcomputerscalpwheelchair（3）The team will test with real patients to_.A . make money from themB . prove the technology useful to themC . make them live longerD . learn about their physical condition（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A . Switzerland, the BCI research CenterB . New Findings About How the Human Brain WorksC . BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the DisabledD . Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Sickness四、 补全对话 (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）补全对话A:Hello, may I speak to Kate, please?B:Speaking.A:Hello, Kate! This is Lily speaking.
