your neighbourhood. but the first step to keeping your child safe in your neighbourhood is to know your neighbours.knowing your neighbours can save you a lot of worry. it lets you know that the car that has just driven down the street belongs to “the yellow house on the corner”, or the truck that has just driven by the playground looks unfamiliar, but the guy in the passenger seat lives two doors down. its these simple things that keep you from going out of your mind whenever you see someone driving by where children are playing.but you shouldnt just know what they look like. the next step is to know them well. what do they do? how do they act? you might be ok with them driving by the playround since they live in the neighbourhood, but are you ok with them being on the playround? knowing your neighbours solves several things. first you find out what kind of people they are. this helps you know if you should let your child go out in an area that they gather. lets face it: you dont want you child to play around people or peoples children that curse(咒骂) or hit each other. sometimes you have to protect your child against your own neighbours.knowing them also makes them know you. being neighbours is an interesting thing. you might not like them or have the same views as them, but we all usually protect those that we consider our own. if you know your neighbours, they know you. they are more likely to look after the child of the nice lady down the street in the brick house, than the people, in the house on the corner, that no one ever sees.56. this passage is mainly to tell us _.a. how to keep your child safe in the neighbourhood b. how to set a good example to your neighboursc. how to get along with your neighbours d. how to teach your child to protect himself57. if someone lives two doors down, he _. a. studies at the same school with your kind b. often comes to the neighbourhood to offer help c. lives in the same neighbourhood as you d. likes driving the truck around the neighbourhood58. the underlined phrase “going out of your mind” in paragraph 2 probably means _. a. becoming very excitedb. becoming very worried c. becoming very disappointedd. becoming very relaxed59. from the third paragraph we can know that _. a. it is important for you to be polite to your neighbours b. people in the same neighbourhood are quite different c. people like enjoying themselves on the playground d. knowing your neighbours helps to keep your kids safe60. the neighbours would like to look after your kid _. a. if they are often encouragedb. if you are getting on well with them c. if you are the one nobody knowsd. if they think you are a beautiful ladybif there is one thing im sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. it is not that newspapers are a necessity. even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. many buy a paper only on saturday or sunday. but for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.the nature of what is news may change. what basically makes news is what affects our livethe big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. i think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. its already happening in areas that many directly affect our lives, like genetic(基因) engineering. in the future, i think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we doas we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.its quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送) electronically from fleet street and printed out in our own home. in fact, im pretty sure that how it will happen in the future. you will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspapers by picking out the things you want to readsports and international news, etc.i think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media. they actually feed off each other. some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasnt happened. what it read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. and as for the internet, its never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.61. what is the best title for the passage? a. the best way to get newsb. the changes of media c. make your own newspaperd. the future of newspaper62. in the writers opinion, in the future, _. a. more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news b. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer c. newspapers will cover more scientific research d. more and more people will watch tv63. what will probably be in the newspaper made by yourself? a. sports and international newsb. a menu of important news c. the most important newsd. what you are interested in64. from the passage, we can infer _. a. newspapers will win the competition among the different media b. newspapers will stay with us together with other media c. television will take the place of newspapers d. the writer believes some media will die out65. the underlined phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means _. a. depend onb. compete withc. fight withd. kill offcit can be hard, nearly impossible, to forgive a friend who has offended you. but forgiveness can change your life. by forgiving, you break free from the bonds of negative emotions, which makes you healthier physically and mentally. forgiving helps you connect with people easily and build good relationships with them.1. understand what forgiving your friends means in the first place. you will either accept or ignore what your friends have offended you. by forgiving, you see the emotions that resulted in your friends wrong behavior. understand that its completely normal to forgive your friends but still remember what they did to you.2. observe how your feelings of anger and bitterness toward your friends are affecting your life. living with negative emotions constantly is stressful and prevents you from enjoying your life fully. with negative feelings, you are seeing yourself as a victim in the situation; youre still allowing your friends to control you by giving in to these negative emotions. getting rid of the victim image is the first step to forgiving.3. talk to your friends. tell them how deeply their behavior has hurt you. listen to them if they give reasons for their behavior. you probably will see that they are regretting doing so and feeling sorry. understanding why your friends behaved the way they did can replace your feelings of injury toward them with mercy; these feelings serve as ways to forgiveness.4. understand that not all people admit their mistakes and your friends might be one of those. avoid getting angry or frustrated if your friends refuse to talk to you or insist that they have done nothing wrong. realize that youre not responsible for peoples attitudes. getting your friends to accept their mistakes or change their behavior is not the goal of forgiveness. making you yourself live a peaceful life is the ultimate goal.5. restore the relationships if you think your friends are worth a second chance. however, restoring relationships can be highly difficult and even impossible. if your friends are unwilling to talk to you or dont care about your feelings, its better to respect yourself and stay away. forgiveness doesnt mean to restore relationships; you can forgive your friends and still go separate way.66. what should we firstly understand about forgiving our friends? a. our friends have realized their mistakes b. forgiveness can change our life c. our friends are willing to restore relationships d. what forgiving our friends means67. we can learn from the passage that _. a. forgiveness means completely forgetting b. positive emotions help us better enjoy our life c. forgiveness prevents you from feeling lonely d. its hard to make others admit their mistakes68. according to the passage, the goal of forgiveness is to _. a. restore a friendship b. make your life peaceful c. forget your sadness d. build strong friendship69. what does the last paragraph mainly tell us? a. maintaining a friendship is difficult b. some people are not worth forgiving c. forgiveness doesnt mean to restore relationships d. always give others a second time70. whats the purpose of the writer in writing the passage? a. to explain the importance of forgiveness b. to give some advice on how to forgive c. to show how to deal with hurt from others d. to advise people to understand each otherda devoted
