The other day, I was invited my friend Sam’s home for dinner. I felt a bit surprising when I saw Bill there. It was two month since we two had quarreled, so I was embarrassed and didn’t know how to do. I sat down on the sofa but began to watch TV. Later Sam came to ask me to make up with Bill. Until then I realize that Sam had arranged the meeting on purpose. He went up to Bill and greeted him warmly, smiled at him. He looked very happily and talked with me excitedly. That night, we had a great fun together.
根据对话情景和内容，从对话后的选项中选出能入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

We’ve all got a lot going on in our lives. Some things are fun, some aren’t. I think I’ m a fairly positive person. 1 In fact, being positive means different things to different people. 2
Focus on what you have not what you don’t. It’s impossible for one to have all the nice things in the world. Focus on what you already have. This can create feelings of happiness.
3 If you can express thanks for everything you have, you leave little room for bad thoughts. It’s a great practice. When you focus on what really matters, so many worries go away.
Forget the past and don’t cling to(紧紧抓住) the future: 4 If you cannot forget mistakes and missed opportunities from the past, you probably find you blame yourself all the time. Clinging to the future is a bad one, too. It truly may never happen. So pay more attention to the present .
5 It always makes me wonder what people are saying about me if they speak so ill of someone else when they aren’t around. If you don’t do this, you never have to worry about what you’ve said getting back to someone.

Dear Students,
I am delighted to be your guest.
I would like to tell you about myself. I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons. The work is sometimes difficult. I have seen famines, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.
In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children. Some were as young as four years old. They lived in the streets and survived by begging or stealing. But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them. Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children. She clothed them, fed them, and taught them. She gave them hope.
Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake, in one place. I found an old lady whose house was in ruins, her son was missing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive. But the old lady did not give up hope. For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself. She did not stop until she found her son. He was alive.
Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious condition. He had undergone twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital. I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.
In life, we need role models that we can admire and learn from. When my life is difficult, I try to remember the courage and goodness of these three people.
1.The speaker is giving a speech to students in __________.
A． India B．Canada C．Turkey D．China
2.The underlined word “ famine ” in Paragraph 2 means __________.
A．extreme lack of food B．joy C．luck D．pleasure
3.What can we learn about Rosa?
A．She’s a rich lady and she likes to help the homeless children.
B．She’s a great mother and she looks after the homeless children.
C．She’s a kind-hearted woman and she provides houses for the homeless children.
D．She’s a good teacher and she teaches the homeless children.
4.For what does the speaker admire the Turkish woman and the Chinese boy?
A．Their bravery. B．Their luck. C．Their age. D．Their strong mind.
On the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You're nervous and that's okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.
On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn't figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didn't think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.
Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.
Since then, I've been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn't much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.
It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some outofclass activities because you'll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isn't straight A's.
Most important of all, be who you are, whether you're a “fool”， an athlete, or a lower grader. Don't try to pretend to be someone you're not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.
1.The main reason for the author's fear on his first day is that ________.
A．he was unable to work out the puzzle
B．his schoolmates were unfriendly to him
C．he was not familiar with the new surroundings
D．his schoolbag was too heavy for him to carry
2.From the author's first day experience we can infer that ________.
A．his home was far from the school
B．he got to school before classes began
C．he was fond of the school immediately.
D．he didn't know the right way to class
3.After his first week at school, the author ________.
A．was still not accustomed to the schedule
B．gradually adjusted himself to the new school
C．found high school not so challenging as he had imagined
D．ran for monitor of his class against three other students
4.According to the passage, the secret of the author's success lies mainly in ________.
A．making more friends
B．getting more A's at school
C．being who he really is
D．joining in outofclass activities
