"No man is an island"is a well-known line from John Donne's Devotion, written more than three hundred years ago.Even now people still agree with him.No one can live a completely isolated life.Without other people, life became empty and sa d.We all need friends.For some of us, though making friends is not difficult, feeling shy, we may not want to make the first move.It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influe nce People, written in 1936, is the most famous.This"how to"book about getting along with other people became a best-seller.It was later put into 28languages.Dale Carnegie's advice seems to be simple, but can his advice help you? Do you need to cha nge the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book.Be friendly and polite.Always greet with a smile.Begin with"excuse me"or"would you pl ease", when you want to ask somebody.Remember to say"thank you"and try to be as helpfu l as you can.Go out of your way to be nice.Find some time to do special things for other people.Maki ng some soup for a sick neighbour may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your ne ighbour feel a lot better.Remember names.They say that the sweetest music to a person's ears is the sound of his or her own name.Be open-minded.Try to understand other people's ways and ideas and learn something from them. Listen patiently.When someone is talking to you, look at him or her, listen carefully and s ay something when necessary.(1)The underlined sentence"No one can live a completely isolated life"means"________"in this pas sage.A No one can live a hard life.B No one can live without difficulty.C No one can live alone.D No one can live on an island.(2)Some of us feel it not easy to make friends because________.A we are afraid to make bad friends.B we are too shy to take the first action.C w e feel worried that we won't be able to keep our friends.D we feel sure that we already have enough friends.(3)We can learn from this passage that________.A John Donne learned something from Dale Carnegie.B friends are always friends.C few people bought Carnegie's book.D the writer of this passage agrees with John D onne and Dale Carnegie.(4)Which of the following is NOT mentioned in Carnegie's book?________A Say"excuse me"before you ask.B Don't visit your neighbour too often.C Think more about others.D People enjoy hearing their own names.(5)The best possible title for this passage should be"________".A How to Make Friends.B A Famous Book.C About Friendship.D John Donne and Dale Carnegie.38. 配对阅读.左栏是对5个学生做演讲时存在问题的描述,请在右栏为每个学生选择一个合适的建议,并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑.五、短文填空(本大题有10小题,每小题20分,共20分)阅读下面这封信,并借助上下文补充所缺信息.每个空格只能填写一个形式正确、与信件内容意思相符的英语单词.把答案写在答题卡上.39.

For example, some of the paintings that are about 10,000 years old showmen with boomerangs. From this we know that the Aborigines started using boomerangs for hunting at that time.Other pictures show kangaroos, so we know that there were kangaroos at that time.merangThe Aborigines believed that spirits made people, animals and plants, and that these spirits still live in the earth. For Aborigines, no one can own the earth—the earth belongs to the spirits.In 1700, there were many Aboriginal groups with a population of 750,000 all over Australia, and there were probably more than 240 different Aboriginal languages. The groups did not have a leader. Instead, things weredecided by the older men in a group. People from different groups often travelled hundreds of miles to meet eachother.Aboriginal life changed when an English boat arrived in Australia in 1770. Many Aborigines were killed in the wars that they had with the English.
