BMy favorite book,The Secretby Rhonda Byrne, talks about a formula called “SFF” which stands for “stopping finding faults”.
17、I used to be a critical person and tried to find faults. I guess I somehow inherited this character from my father. Actually, many good qualities of my father are worth admiring except this.My father is the person who constantly looks for mistakes in other people and he thinks no one is perfect in t
18、he world. His character created a negative atmosphere in my family. I was the same as my father, so I often felt angry, disappointed, depressed, and lonely in school.After I had read my favorite book I began to seek “good things” in other people. It has completely changed my life. Now I feel happier
19、, I have more friends, I have more trust in people, and I realize everyone has their own strength! Another important lesson I got from this book is that I should always behave myself in a positive manner. Lets admit that we sometimes complain about our situation. Thats not good. “Believe it or not,
20、people dont like to listen to negative opinions.”One more valuable lesson I got from the book is that I should be a good listener. When I was younger, I only wanted people to pay whole attention to my words so that I could show them how important I was. I was very proud and would show off my achieve
21、ments in school without considering others feeling. I had very few friends and most people considered me as an “arrogant” person.

25、cause the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, ca
26、n it?Taking all amateur（业余）and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game originated（起源于）in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game
27、, or “association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.The next is rugby, which is called “football” in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kic
28、ked. It is a pretty rough game.In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduc
29、ed into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world.Table tennis, or “ping-pong”, surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19t
30、h century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.28.

31、lives29. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about football and rugby?A. They differ in the shape of the ball. B. They are played by different numbers of players. C.

Sports in BritainDAfter the age of sixteen, the number of brain cells begins to decrease at a speed of several m
33、illion a year. They simply die off. We know that in certain types of activity, the human brain is at its peak (高峰) in the early twenties, when it has collected enough information to be able to use the vast number of cells freely in the most effective way. Pure mathematics is one of the fields in whi
34、ch this happens, and we know that Albert Einstein made all his world-shaking discoveries between the age of about 20 and 25, and spent the rest of his life tidying them up and arranging them.But in certain other types of activity (of which being an author is perhaps one), experience is more importan
35、t than sharpness of brain, and there one usually finds that a person reaches his or her peak much later in life.Besides sharpness of brain and experience, here is another thing that is very important, and that is wisdom. One can have a very quick, inventive brain and plenty of experience, but if one
36、 uses these foolishly, one harms both oneself and others. Wisdom does not always come with age there are plenty of foolish middle-aged people about but the average person tends to learn wisdom as he gets older, usually by making painful of embarrassing mistakes.Leaning to be wise is basically learni
37、ng what is not possible; and what is possible but so difficult that it is not worth all the trouble one has to go through to get there. Mostly, it is learning about human nature; how real people behave and react, as against how one would like them to behave and react. One can read and hear lot of id
38、ealistic stuff (空想的东西) about how to make the world a better place, which would be found if it was based on an accurate (准确) observation of human nature, but which is basically a waste of time because it is not.32. According to the writer, the great discoveries made by Albert Einstein were mainly a r

83、around. Heres our advice to her, and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes. Its hard when a best friend isnt around, maybe because she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime. You want to have new friends. But how do you make them? Maybe it seems l
84、ike everybody else already has their friends. But remember, theres always room for more friends. Start by looking around your classroom thinking about which kids youd like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile and be friendly. Offer to share something with or express your
85、appreciation to them, invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” at lunchtime. If you have trouble doing this or if youre feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to help, and pretty soon youll have one, or two, or even more new friends.
