Dear Tom,
I'm glad to hear that you are considering make up with Peter.
As you know, Peter enjoys riding a bike get around. However, something is wrong with his bike, so you'd better buy him the bike as a birthday present. Then you can try to find chances to hang out by bike with him, which is helpfully in rebuilding our friendship. Beside giving him a gift, and you can also adopt other means, such as seeing a movie and going shopping. Whatever you do, being sincere was the most important.
I really hope what you can make up and be good friend forever.

It is sometimes thought that the longing for material goods, the need to buy things, is a relatively modern invention. 1. Trade or shopping is certainly an ancient desire, and existed even before our ancestors used metal to make tools.
2. And we don't need shops or money to do it. Evidence from hunter-gatherers suggests that the exchange of food and other necessary things comes naturally, as well as the ability to keep a record of the credits involved. And once trade begins, the benefits are hard to resist.
Ancient local coastal people in northern Australia traded fish hooks, along a chain of trading partners, with people living 400 miles inland, who cut and polished local stone to make axes (斧子).
3. Finally, both groups of ''producers'', by concentrating on things they could produce and exchanging them for other things they needed, benefited as a result.
Trade in the necessities of life, such as food and simple tools, is not really surprising. What is surprising, though, is that our taste for unnecessary expensive objects also goes back a long way.
In South Africa, 100,000-year-old decorative dyes (染料) have been found in an area where none were produced. 4. Small round pieces of glass 76,000 years old were also found at the same place. The earliest jewellery known to us were not just random findings — they were grouped together in size and had holes like those used for threading onto a necklace.
Archaeologists argue that trade prepared the way for the complex societies in which we live today. 5. However, their modern equivalents — fast cars and expensive clothes — hold the same attraction for us as ''trade goods'' did for people 100,000 years ago.
A. Humans are born to trade.
B. These are powerful evidence for cash purchase.
C. In fact, its roots go back to the beginning of humanity.
D. However, first trade began from the exchange of objects.
E. Modern-day shoppers may not be impressed by ancient glass pieces.
F. It is thought that these goods were bought at least 30 kilometres away.
G. Every individual along the chain made a profit, even if he produced neither himself.
Taking charge of yourself involves putting to rest some common beliefs. At the top of the list is the notion that intelligence is measured by your ability to solve complex problems; to read, write and compute at certain levels; and to resolve abstract equations (方程式) quickly. This vision of intelligence asserts (断言) formal education and bookish excellence as the true measures of self-fulfillment. It encourages a kind of intellectual prejudice that has brought with it some discouraging results. We have come to believe that someone who is very good at some form of school discipline is ''intelligent''. Yet mental hospitals are filled with patients who have all of the professional certificates. A truer indicator of intelligence is an effective, happy life lived each day and each present moment.
If you are happy, if you live each moment for everything it's worth, then you are an intelligent person. Problem solving is a useful help to your happiness, but if you know that given your inability to solve a particular problem you can still choose happiness for yourself, or at a minimum refuse to choose unhappiness, then you are intelligent. You are intelligent because you have the ultimate weapon against the big N.B.D. — Nervous Break Down.
''Intelligent'' people do not have N.B.D.s because they are in charge of themselves. They know how to choose happiness over depression, because they know how to deal with the problems of their lives.
You can begin to think of yourself as truly intelligent on the basis of how you choose to feel in the face of trying circumstances. Everyone who is involved with other human beings in any social context has similar difficulties. Disagreements, conflicts and compromises are a part of what it means to be human. Similarly, money, growing old, sickness, deaths, natural disasters and accidents are all events which present problems to actually all human beings. But some people are able to make it, to avoid abandoning themselves to depression and unhappiness despite such occurrences, while others collapse or have N.B.D.s. Those who recognize problems as a human condition and don't measure happiness by an absence of problems are the most intelligent kind of humans we know; also, the most rare.
1.According to the author, the notion of intelligence measured in terms of one's ability to read, write and compute _____________.
A.will help remove intellectual prejudice B.is a widely held but wrong concept
C.will contribute to one’s self-fulfillment D.is the root of all mental suffering
2.It is implied in the passage that holding a university degree _____________.
A.does not mean that one is highly intelligent
B.may make one mentally sick and physically weak
C.does not indicate one's ability to write professional documents
D.may result in one's inability to solve complex real-life problems
3.The author thinks that an intelligent person knows _____________.
A.how to accept some common beliefs
B.how to persuade others to compromise
C.how to find the best way to achieve success in life
D.how to avoid depression and make his life worthwhile
4.According to the last paragraph, which statement is TRUE?
A.Difficulties are part of everyone's life.
B.Depression and unhappiness are unavoidable in life.
C.Everybody should learn to avoid challenging circumstances.
D.Good feelings can contribute to eventual academic excellence.
If I scratch your back and you scratch mine, then we're both better off as a result — so goes the principle of reciprocity. As humans, we are familiar with the concept. But do animals also help those who help them? The answer may be yes. A paper by Dolivo and Taborsky shows that Norway rats will only give as good as they get.
In their laboratory, Dolivo and Taborsky first trained rats to pull on a stick that drew a food item within reach of a rat in a neighboring cage separated from them by wire mesh (钢丝网).
They then introduced a further treatment in which an experimental rat was placed in a cage with other caged rats on either side. On one side the rat pulled a stick that provided pieces of carrot to the rat in the central cage, while the other pulled a stick that produced banana pieces.
In the following trials the focal rat (the one in the central cage) had the opportunity to repay the other rats using the same stick tool to deliver food items.
Now, the rats had typically turned their noses up at the carrot and showed a strong preference for the more desirable banana. On the basis that the banana-providing rat should therefore be remembered as the superior partner, the authors predicted that in the test phase (阶段) the focal rat would more readily provide help for banana-offering rats than for carrot-offering rats. This proved to be the case: the rats that had provided better help in the past received greater rewards - it seemed that they were behaving reciprocally.
Dolivo and Taborsky's experiments show that rats can recall the quality of help provided and by which rat, and adjust their behavior so as to invest more time and energy in helping those that helped them. It is apparent that we shouldn't undervalue the ability of animals to engage in reciprocity.
1.What does the underlined word ''reciprocit'' in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?
A.The act of being kind to other people. B.A cooperative exchange of favors.
C.A positive attitude to everything. D.The quality of being generous.
2.What would happen if a rat pulled the stick according to the text?
A.It would find some food in its own cage.
B.Other rats would be able to enter its cage.
C.Another rat in another cage would get food.
D.It would be able to enter a neighboring cage.
3.Which got more benefit from the focal rat in the experiments?
A.The rats that preferred carrot pieces.
B.The rats that preferred banana pieces.
C.The rats that had provided carrot pieces.
D.The rats that had provided banana pieces.
4.Which of the following might Dolivo and Taborsky agree with?
A.Some animals may return others' help.
B.Norway rats have very poor memories.
C.It is hard to explain the ability of animals.
D.Rats behavior is very uncommon.
