Will it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effort than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention in class. Contrary to what many people believe people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce other meals. 31．The title of the passage should be ________.
A．the importance of breakfast B．the result of a test
C．breakfast will make you clever
D．breakfast is more important than other meals
32．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A．Poor breakfast affects those who work with brains. B．Morning diet may cause one to get fatter.
C．Reducing lunch and supper is of less value in weight-losing. D．Eating less in lunch and supper may help to lose weight. 33．During the test, those who were tested were given ________.
A．no breakfast at all breakfast
C．little food for breakfast
D．different foods or none.
B．very rich
34．The passage mentions that many people believe that if you don't eat
breakfast, you will ________. A．lose weight C．be healthier
B．not lose weight D．gain a lot of weight
35．The results of the test show that ________.
A．breakfast has a great effect on a person's work and studies B．breakfast has little to do with a person's work C．a person will work better if he has simple breakfast D．those working with brains should have much for breakfast

Every one needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do so many things together 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 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 go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away. Then they feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never 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, if they are friendly to people in 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, if they have friends. These people live longer than those who don't have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares about you. If someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.
36．The first paragraph tells us ________.
A．none need friends
B．we always need friends around up C．making friends is the need in people's life D．we need to be alone
37．Which of the following is what the writer doesn't say in the passage?

A．A house
B．A room.
C．A village
D．A library
39．If people have friends, they would live longer, because ________.
A．they feel happier and healthier B．they get a lot of help from their friends C．they take better care of themselves D．both A and C

Miss Maynell and I grew to know each other through the mail. When World War II ended, I returned from Europe. We planned our first meeting at the Grand Central Station in New York.
At seven, I was in the station and waited for the girl whose heart I loved but whose face I’d never seen.
Suddenly a girl in a green suit was coming toward me. I stood up from the bench and started toward her, completely forgetting to notice that she was not wearing a rose.
“Going my way, sailor?” the girl murmured, walking away quickly. I made one step closer to her and then I saw Miss Maynell, who was well past 40, standing almost directly behind her with a red rose. I felt something even better than love. I didn’t hesitate and walked to her. “I’m John Blanchard, and you must be Miss Maynell,” I said, feeling shocked by the bitterness of disappointment. “I’m glad you could meet me. May I take you to dinner?”
The woman smiled. “I don’t know what this is about, son,” she answered. “But the young lady in the green suit begged me to wear this rose. And she said if you were to invited me to dinner, I should tell you that she is waiting for you in a big restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test!”

Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.
Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.
Generosity means sharing and makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to friends. They tell your friends what is important to you. By sharing then you help your friend know you better.
Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with problems.
Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.
No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends; you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding. 6. Some friendships don’t last long because __________. A. there are too many people who want to make friends
B. those (who never give others friendships) receive no friendship from others
C. those who give others friendship receive friendship from others D. they don’t know friendship is something serious 7. According to the passage honesty is __________. A. something countable B. the base of friendship C. as important as money

B. Sharing your mind with your friend is of great value.
C. Discussing your problems with your friend often helps to solve the problem.

Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?
Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity (身份) than to step out of uniform ?
Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax- deductible ( 可减
税的). They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.
Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.
Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.
1. It is surprising that Americans who worship variety and individuality ___________.
A. still judge a man by his clothes B. hold the uniform in such high regard C. enjoy having a professional identity
D. will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform 2. People are accustomed to thinking that a man in uniform ____________.
A. suggests quality work
B. discards his social identity C. appears to be more practical
D. looks superior to a person in civilian clothes 3. The chief function of a uniform is to ___________. A. provide practical benefits to the wearer B. make the wearer catch the public eye C. inspire the wearer's confidence in himself D. provide the wearer with a professional identity
4. According to the passage, people wearing uniforms _____________. A. are usually helpful
B. have little or no individual freedom C. tend to lose their individuality D. enjoy greater popularity
5. The best title for this passage would be ____________. A. Uniforms and Society
B. The Importance of Wearing a Uniform C. Practical Benefits of Wearing a Uniform D. Advantages and Disadvantages of Uniforms 答案：

3．答案是D．在第二段最后，提到制服的主要功能是什么：A是实际的好处，而不是主要功能。
4．答案是C，在第四段。制服的一个主要缺点。 5．答案是n文章的主题是讨论了制服的优缺点。 4. 基础写作
