Emerson once said, “You can never do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late.”
How many times have we said, “Oh, I’ll do that tomorrow”? Sometimes tomorrow never comes, and we find
ourselves saying, “Boy, I wish I hadn’t put that off.”
Our family has been friends with Betty for many years. Over the years, we shared phone calls and birthday
cards. Betty sent our youngest son Brandon a birthday card with five dollars in it every year until he graduated from
high school.
Last November, I called Betty to see how she was and what she had done on her birthday. I was pretty surprised
when Betty didn’t answer the phone; instead, her daughter Carol did. Carol told me that her mom had gone downhill
fast, and that she was now in hospice care (临终关怀). Carol handed the phone to Betty. I talked briefly (简略地) to
her and let her know we loved her.
As soon as I got off the phone, I sent a message to Brandon to let him know Betty wasn’t doing well. Brandon
stopped what he was doing and immediately sent flowers to Betty.
You can imagine how proud I was of Brandon when Carol called the next day, letting me know how much Betty
loved the flowers Brandon had sent. A few days later, Betty died.
So, my friends, remember next time, try to do what you want to do as soon as possible because you never know
how soon it will be too late.

Everyone knows that friendships are important. We all need our best friends. Best friends share good times and
bad. We tell our close friends our secrets. But what about casual friends? They are the friends we see only now and
then. They are our classmates, the customers at the cafe, or the neighbor walking his dog. When we have a lot of
casual friends, it improves our lives in several ways.
First, casual friends make us happy. We talk to them at the bus stop or the farm stand. We feel like we are part ofa community. Research shows that the more casual friends we have, the more positive we feel. In one study, students
felt much happier when they talked to more classmates than usual. These low-key(低调的) friendships become very
important as we get older. We have the most friends at age 25, but the number goes down after that. As we get older,
we have fewer friendships and can feel alone. But we feel less lonely when we have many casual friends.
Second, casual friends connect us to other groups of people. They tell us about fun activities and possible jobs.
In fact, people are 58 percent more likely to get a job through a casual friend than a close friend. Casual friends
introduce us to their other friends. They help when we want to know about good restaurants or exciting movies.
Research shows that casual friendships are a good way to spread all kinds of information.
Finally, casual friends introduce us to a variety of new ideas. Our best friends often think like us, but casual
friends may have very different opinions. When we talk to different people, we learn new ways of seeing the world.
It makes us kinder and more understanding.
To have a better life, make more casual friends. Talk more to strangers. These people can become casual friends.
Over time, casual friends can become close friends. And the more friends you have, the happier you’ll be. Casual
friends may be the secret to a happy life.
23．What are casual friends?
A．Friends we see only sometimes. B．Friends we share good times with.
C．Friends we often tell our secrets to. D．Friends we have known for a long time.
24．Why are casual friends important as we get older?
A．Because we have more time to spend with them. B．Because they are easier to have than close friends.
C．Because we have fewer friends and may feel alone. D．Because they share other neighbors’ secrets with us.
25．How do casual friends help us get new ways of thinking?
A．By introducing different new ideas to us. B．By making us feel like we are relatives.
C．By providing us with more possible jobs. D．By introducing us to their other friends.
26．Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (p-paragraph)
A． B． C． D．
D
When people think of Beijing, the hutong style always comes to mind. It is no exaggeration（夸张）to say
within hutong lives the city’s history.
The word “hutong” referred to a place where people live, which was borrowed from the Mongolian word to
mean “water well” about 700 years ago. Hutong we see today are made up of small paths formed by walls of
siheyuan. They were built during the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.
When the People’s Republic of China was founded in 1949, there were more than 3,000 hutong. Most of the
city’s population lived in this traditional housing. But with the modernization of the city in the 1980s and early
1990s, many hutongs were pulled down to build roads, skyscrapers and modern houses.
The government has recognized the importance of hutong to Chinese cultural heritage. In 2002, Beijing listed
40 protected historical zones and increased its efforts to rebuild some key relics and older streets in the city. Nearly
500 hutong have survived.Hutong that still exist are like oases（绿洲）of calm in the noisy city. Walking through them, it’s common to
see groups of elderly people sitting together playing cards, mahjong（麻将）or Chinese chess. In the early mornings
and evenings, they gather to practice traditional forms of exercise such as Taijiquan as well as dancing and singing
folk songs or Peking Opera. Hutong have become a museum of Beijing’s folk customs and history.
27．What is the purpose of paragraph 2?
A．To add background information of hutong. B．To bring in the topic of the context.
C．To stress the importance of hutong. D．To introduce the benefits of hutong.
28．What happened to hutong in Beijing in 2002?
A．More hutong were built. B．Lots of hutong disappeared.
C．Most hutong became historical zones. D．Some hutong were placed under protection.
29．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A．The future of hutong. B．The change of hutong.
C．The beauty of hutong life. D．The history of hutong life.
30．What is the author’s attitude towards Hutong protection?
A．Negative. B．Unclear. C．Supportive. D．Doubtful.

How to avoid careless mistakes?
Careless mistakes can make you feel worse than big mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes from time to time, and
that’s okay. However, there are some ways to get yourself back on track(轨道) after you make mistakes.
31
Don’t worry. We are humans and we all make mistakes sometimes. Avoid putting yourself down when you
make mistakes. A mistake is more like the brain shuts down, notices the inactive feedback you give yourself as
threat, and then avoids thinking about it completely.
32
Ask yourself why you might have made a certain type of mistakes. Write down how you could have avoided
making them. Allow more time to do that, start earlier, and pay more attention to what you are doing, etc.
33
It’s amazing how fast lack of sleep can make people forgetful and cause them to feel stressed, which can lead to
careless mistakes. Get enough sleep and you’ll keep a clear mind all day.
34
When you make a mistake, you should face it bravely. Don’t make excuses that are useless. What you should do
is to review your mistakes and learn from them. As the saying goes, “A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit.”
35
Don’t let a mistake get you down. There’s no need to be a perfectionist. Don’t beat yourself up. Everyone
makes mistakes. It’s how you deal with mistakes that is important. Simply think about how you can solve the
problem and move on. Believe you will do better next time.
A．Be responsible for your mistakes.B．Realize that making mistakes is normal.
C．Tell yourself you will do better next time.
D．Say sorry to yourself and be careful next time.
E．Find out what caused these careless mistakes.
F．Stick to a regular sleeping and resting normally.
