Standing shows that you are interested in meeting the other person. Look directly at the person you are meeting.Shake hands with a strong, firm handshake. If you have gloves on, take them off. Reach your right hand out. Grip （紧握）the other person’s hand firmly. Do not crush （过于用力）, please! Shake just once and let go. Do not hold the person’s hand for long. If your hands are dirty or wet, do not shake hands. Say “Sorry, my hands are dirty.”In formal situation there are special rules for introducing two people. For people in different ranks, you should introduce the subordinate （下属）to the superior （上级）first. Among equals, outside of work, you should introduce the younger person to the older one, and the male to the female. In a business office, people may be introduced by first and last names. At some work sites, male workers might use their last names only. At a party, people are often introduced by first names.Do not use business cards in social introduction. If you later talk about business, you can ask for the other person’s business card. It’s OK to write notes to help you remember details of the meeting on the back of the card.Look at the person you are talking to. Use the person’s name when you talk t o him or her. Find out what the other person is good at or likes to talk about. Avoid personal questions. Don’t ask their age, how much they paid for something, or how much money they earn. Don’t interrupt when someone else is talking. On the other hand, d on’t talk too long.Don’t whisper to keep another person from hearing your conversation. Don’t brag （吹牛）about yourself.( ) 1.

We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk to, laugh with, and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.No two people are just the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well. That doesn’t mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will make up and go on being friends.Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we can call them and write to them. It could be that we would even see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them.Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women who have been friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.There’s more good news for people who have friends. They live longer than people who don’t. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happier helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares. If someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself. ( )6. The first paragraph tells us _________A.making friends is the need in people’s lifeB.no one needs friendsC.we need to be aloneD.we always need friends around us( )7.

in his hand. The box contained a man's thumb(拇指).It was lying on some white, bloody(带血的) material. There was a cut(刀痕)---an old cut---on the thumb nail(指甲). "See that cut, " the man said. I recognized it. This is my friend's right hand. The dogs ate the rest of him!" The old man began to cry then. He finished his coffee quickly and left the cafe. I drank my coffee and called the waiter. " I'll pay the man's bill , "I said. " Please don't trouble him with it. His poor friend--how awful! You've heard the news?" The waiter laughed , "Yes. There's a hole in the bottom of the matchbox. He put his own thumb through the hole. The " blood " is red ink ,I believe. Is the story worth a cup of coffee, sir?" 6.The writer met an old man at a _______. A. court B. coffee shop C. park D. cinema 7.The writer heard that_____ had been killed. A. the stranger B
