Friends are important for everyone, but it’s not easy to find friends. For most students, true friends are harder to find. If you have some good friends, you should do your best to keep your friendships.

It’s easier to make friends and keep friendships with people who have the similar interests or hobbies as you. You can spend happy and relaxing time together, and share your feelings and your interests. However, sometimes it’s not necessary for you to be the same. You may have different ideas and habits. Then trying to understand each other seems to be more important.

The way you talk with your friends is important. When you talk with them, ask questions to help them start and keep talking. But don’t ask personal questions, such as their parents’ jobs. These questions will make them feel unhappy. They may dislike talking with you and try to walk away. In that way, you may lose some friends and your friends will be fewer and fewer.

Another important thing is listening. Listen carefully to what your friend is talking about, and respond in the right way. It doesn’t have to be with words. Body language（肢体语言） can be enough to show that you’re listening. Talk about your ideas after your friend finishes his talking.

In short, we should do our best to keep friendships as long as possible. Friends and friendships help make our life more wonderful.

( )47.We should try to keep friendships because ________.

A. we can’t make new friends B. friends are easy to walk away

C. friends are important but difficult to find D. most friendships are very short

( )48._______ is more important for making friends and keeping friendship..

A. Having same ideas and habits B. Understanding each other

C. Having same interests D. Spending happy and relaxing timetogether

( )49. The underlined word “respond” means “________”.

( )50. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. It’s an easy way to make friends with people who have the same interests.

B. You should use the right way when you talk with friends.

C. You should try to understand and respect your friends.

D. You don’t need to listen very carefully to what your friend is talking.

Doing exercise is very important for everyone. But it can be a little difficult to keep an exercise plan when winter comes. The cold weather makes you want to stay in your warm bed. Do you have the same problem? I’ll tell you what you can do to change the situation.(状况)

To stay active during winter, you should first make it as easy as possible to do your exercise. Second, make something different before you lose interest in doing exercise. The following advice will give some ideas for making winter exercise more comfortable and more enjoyable.

Put your sports clothes in the dryer. If you want to exercise outside, you might keep the clothes in the dryer for a few minutes before that. It’s often harder to get warmed up when it’s cold outside.

Take a hot shower. If it’s really cold outside, you might try a quick hot shower to get you warm before you do exercise.

Walk in door. Walking is a good way to stay healthy. To get out of cold weather of winter, you can simply walk in door, probably in the living area of your room. Walking indoors makes you feel safe and gives you a dry and warm temperature to do it.
