As I was finishing seventh grade, my school decided to make some changes because of financial(財政的)problems. The school would make the classes bigger, so there could be fewer teachers.①We needed to write down the names of people we wanted to be with and didn't want to be with. I wrote down the names of all my close friends.

I found out that none of my close friends were in any of my new classes. Also, my new classmates were quite different from my old ones. I thought they weren't as smart as my old classmates. They were also not in the school activities I was in. I couldn't find common interests with them.

As the year went on, I began to feel lonely and envy people in other groups. Why could they be with all their friends? As I found out, they didn't have many friends at first. They had made new friends in their new classes. They seemed pretty happy with their new friends.

I decided it was time for me to make new friends. I noticed that the people with many friends were very active. ②They often talked to others first, while I was too scared to talk to others and hoped other people would talk to me first.

Once I realized that, I found that making friends is very easy if you can accept people for who they are, respect them, and talk to them. Now I feel a lot happier because I have more friends.

1.What problem did the writer have in the new classes?

A. He couldn't do what he used to do.

B. His classmates had no interests.

C. His classmates didn't want to talk to him.

D. He had no close friends in the class.

2.What does the underlined word "envy" in the 3rd paragraph mean?

A. Hope to join other groups.

B. Wish to be in other people's situation.

C. Expect other people to come to him.

D. Want to share other people's interests.

3.From the passage, we can infer that .

A. there were fewer classes in the school

B. no students were forced to go to other classes

C. students spent more money on new classes

D. the writer's friends didn't like him any more

4.The writer wants to tell us that .

A. it's difficult to make new friends

B. the school needs much money to run

C. being active is good for making friends

Once a small boy lived on a farm which seemed so far away from everywhere.

He needed to get up before sunrise every morning to help his father on the farm. During sunrise he would take a break and climb up on the fence (籬笆) along the side of the farm. He could see a house with golden windows. "If they could afford golden windows, then there must be other nice things inside the house." He imagined how great it would be to live there. Then he promised himself, "Some day I will go there and see this wonderful place."

One morning, his father would go to the town and told him to stay at home for a rest. Knowing that this was his chance, he took a sandwich and headed across the field toward the house with the golden windows.

As the afternoon went on, he began to realize how wrong he was. The house was much farther than he had expected. As he went near the house, he saw no golden windows but instead a place in bad need of painting. A small girl very close to his age came out of the poor house and stood by the broken fence. He asked her if she had seen the house with the golden windows.

The girl said, "Sure, I know." and invited him to sit on the porch(門廊).As he sat there, he looked back from where he just came. There he saw the sunset(夕陽)turned the windows of his house to gold! Now he understood that everyone had his own house with golden windows.

Most people graduate from school and then get a job. Everyone wants a job that pays well. How much money can you make? Ask yourself these questions: What can I do? What skills do I have? Also ask yourself: How much education do I have? For most jobs, the higher your education, the higher your earning power.

In the United States, high school graduates make about $18,600 a year. If you do not finish high school, you make only $10,800 a year. You can make $7,800 more each year by staying in high school!

If you stay in school, then you can make more money. A person with a high school degree makes about $18,600 a year.

If the person gets a PhD (博士學位), he can make almost $79,000 or more a year.

What’s going to happen in the future? Will robots control our planet? Will computers become smarter than us? Not likely. But here are some things that scientists say are most likely to happen in 10 to 30 years from now, according to the BBC.

Digital money

We used to pay with cash(現(xiàn)金) for everything we bought. Now when we use a credit card(信用卡) to shop online, money is spent without us seeing it. That means we are already using digital money. Using a card is much easier than searching our pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.

When ATM cards were first introduced, they were not accepted everywhere. But now it’s hard to live without them. It’s reported that people in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, and the US might be next.

Bionic(仿生的) eye

It’s no longer something only in a science fiction movie. People who are blind may have a chance to get their sight back---by wearing bionic eyes.

A blind eye can no longer sense light, but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send data(數(shù)據(jù)) to the mind. Now the bionic eye only allows patients to see lights and unclear shapes. A high resolution(高清的) image could be just a few years away.

Self-driving cars

Unlike a human driver, a self-driving car won’t get distracted(分神) by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors(探測器) and cameras on the car would allow it to stick strictly to the rules of the road and keep a safe distance from other cars. This would greatly reduce the number of road accidents. You could even take a nap while the car drives itself. In the future, driver-less cars would be widely accepted.

1.______ has stopped using cash completely.

A. Sweden B. ATM C. BBC D. America

2.What does the writer mainly tell us about digital money?

A. We use digital money to shop online without paying money.

B. Digital money is most likely to be used instead of cash.

C. Using cash is easier and safer than a credit card.

D. ATM cards arc always popular.

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Bionic eyes only appear in the science fiction film.

B. Human drivers won't get distracted by something outside.

C. The blind wearing bionic eyes may see clearly in the future.

D. There will be no road accident at all if self-driving cars are used.

4.From the report, we can learn some information about ______.

A. culture and Art B. industry and farming

C. science and technology D. traffic and journey

5.Which of the following can be predicted(預測) from the passage?

A. There would be a number of self-driving cars on the road

B. The blind could use cameras to see things around.

C. We would live a hard life with digital money.

D. Robots would control the world.

“I want a new mom,” she cried.
