I’m not so sure I like my friends any more. I used to like them — to be honest. We’d have lunch, talk on the phone or exchange e-mails, and they all seemed normal enough. But then came Facebook and I was introduced to a sad fact: many of my friends have dark sides that they had kept from me. Today my friends show off the more unpleasant aspects of their personalities via Facebook. No longer hidden, they’re thrown in my face like TV commercials — unavoidable and endless advertisements for the worst of their personalities. Take Fred. If you were to have lunch with him, you’d find him warm, and down-to-earth. Read his Facebook and you realize he’s an unbearable, food-obsessed bore. He’d pause to have a cup of coffee on his way to save a drowning man — and then write about it. Take Andy. You won’t find a smarter CEO anywhere, but now he’s a CEO without a company to lull. So he plays Mafia Wars on Facebook. He’s doing well — level 731. Thanks to Facebook, I know he’s playing about 18 hours a day. Andy, you’ve run four companies — and this is how you spend your downtime? What happened to golf? What happened to getting another job? Take Liz. She is positive that the H1N1 vaccine will kill us all and that we should avoid it. And then comes Chris who likes to post at least 20 times a day on every website he can find, so I get to read his thoughts twice, once on Facebook and once on Twitter. In real life, I don’t see these sides of people. Face to face, my friends show me their best. They’re nice, smart people. But face to Facebook, my friends are like a blind date which goes horribly wrong. I’m left with a dilemma. Who is my real friend? Is it the Liz I have lunch with or the anti-vaccine lunatic(狂人)on Facebook? Is it the Fred I can grab a sandwich with or the Fred who weeps if he’s at a party and the wine isn’t up to his standards?1.Who is opposed to the H1N1 vaccine in the text?A.FredB.AndyC.LizD.Chris2.What’s Andy probably busy in doing now?A.He’s running his companyB.He’s playing golf all dayC.He’s looking for another jobD.He’s playing computer games3.According to the text, Facebook tends to ______A.present another side of peopleB.offer some food for freeC.show endless advertisementsD.get you to more parties4.The text is developed mainly by ______A.giving examplesB.following the time orderC.listing figuresD.raising questions5.The author focuses on the question of ______A.what is FacebookB.what happened to golfC.who is my real friendD.who can help me

Everyone has good days and bad days.
Sometimes, you feel as if you're on top of the world．But occasionally you feel horrible, and you lose things and you cannot focus on your schoolwork. For more than 20 years, scientists have suggested that high self-esteem (自尊) is the key to success. Now, new research shows that focusing just on building self-esteem may not be helpful. In some cases, having high self-esteem can bring bad results if it makes you less likeable or more upset when you fail at something. &Forget about self-esteem,& says Jennifer Crocker, a psychologist (心理学家) at the University of Michigan, US. &It's not the important thing.& Feeling good Crocker's advice may sound a bit strange because it is good to feel good about yourself. Studies show that people with high self-esteem are less likely to be depressed, anxious, shy, or lonely than those with low self-esteem. But, after reviewing about 18,000 studies on self-esteem, Roy Baumeister, a psychologist at Florida State University, has found that building up your self-esteem will not necessarily make you a better person. He believes that violent and wicked (邪恶的) people often have the highest self-esteem of all. He also said: &There's no evidence that kids with high self-esteem do better in school.& Problems
All types of people have problems. People with high self-esteem can have big egos (自我) that can make them less likeable to their peers (同龄人), said Kathleen Vohs, a psychology professor at Columbia University. People with high self-esteem tend to think more of themselves, Vohs says. People with low self-esteem are more likely to rely on their friends when they need help. What to do Researchers say it is best to listen to and support other people. Find positive ways to contribute to society. If you fail at something try to learn from the experience. &The best therapy (药方) is to recognize your faults,& Vohs says. &It's OK to say, 'I'm not so good at that,' and then move on.& The new research comes to the conclusion that high self-esteem ______. &&&&&& A．is not important at all&&&&& B．has taken on a different meaning &&&&&& C．may not be the key to success& D．does not help you do better at school One of the conclusions of the new research is that ______. &&&&&& A．feeling good about oneself doesn’t mean you lead a happier life &&&&&& B．people with high esteem usually do not seek other’s help &&&&&& C．people with high esteem tend to be proud &&&&&& D．people with low esteem are often more popular The underlined part “a better person” in the passage probably means a person who is ______. &&&&&& A．helpful and supportive&&& B．gentle and modest
&&&&&& C．likable and successful&&&&& D．friendly and kind From the text, we can infer the best therapy mentioned in the last paragraph is mainly for
people _______.
&&&&&& A．with high self-esteem&&&&& B．with low self-esteem &&&&&& C．of all kinds&&&&&&&&&&&& && D．who are focusing on building self-esteem

&Awell-known English magazine invited five people to answer a series ofquestions. One of thequestions is: Do you enjoy foreign food? Match the name of each person to oneof the statements given below.56. John Harvey: & In fact if you go out to arestaurant, it’s very difficult to find the “British” cooking, but you can findalmost anything else: French, Italian, Chinese, Indian and so on. London is full of foreign restaurants. I love trying “new dishes.” I think you canunderstand a lot about another culture from its food.57. Jo Baker: & I like foreign food, butnot all. I particularly do not like Indian food, although I quite enjoy a mildcurry I make myself. I like most European dishes, but Spanish food is quite lowdown on my list. However, I think you have to travel a long way to beat goodold English cooking. What can be nicer than the aroma of a piece of beefroasted in the oven, surrounded by crisp roast potatoes and served with pipinghot Yorkshire puddings, vegetables and gravy? From my point of view, I thinkforeign food is all right when you are abroad. You see, that’s just part of theenjoyment of travelling to another country. Foreign food is also fine for anodd night out to restaurant, but for every day please give me good old Englishfood.58. Gabby Macadam:& On the whole I enjoyforeign food, but having said that I can think of dozens of foreign disheswhich I simply can’t stand. You see, they have fish in some way or other and Inever eat fish in any form. I have found that many foreign dishes are servedwith a kind of sauce. I think it is the accompanying sauce that hides all sortsof problems. I am not so sure that I would be as fond of them as I am if they wereserved without the sauce.59. Len Dangerfield: & When we English peopletravel abroad, we always make a great fuss about studying the menu but alwaysend up with steak. You see, when I’m abroad I always miss our home cooking. Imean, I’m used to English food. Sometimes I do go to restaurant to taste someexotic dishes, but most of the time I still prefer to have English food. Youknow, it’s always difficult to get used to food in other countries.60. Peter Hawke:& I like foreign food. Iparticularly like Indian food. Well, I’m married to an Indian girl. She is agood cook. I’m so lucky to have her cook for me every day. I think Indian foodas well as other foreign foods is generally tastier and spicier than Englishfood. Traditional English dishes, like roast beef and Yorkshire pudding andfish and chips, are quite well-known abroad. But I must say as a nation we arenot particularly good at catering. As far as I’m concerned, I think we shouldlearn to cook more interesting dishes and make our food tastier and morevaried.A. Cooking variesfrom country to country even though the basic gradients may be very much thesame.B. I can’t standthose foreign dishes which contain fish in some way or other, and I’m not sosure that I’m fond of many foreign dishes which are served with a kind sauce.C. I think foreignfood is all right when you are abroad, but for every day, traditional Englishfood is always my first choice.D. Foreign dishes canbe tasted occasionally, but I find it difficult to adjust to the tastes. So Istill prefer English food.E. I love foreignfood, and I think people can understand a lot about another culture from whatthey eat.F. English people should learn to cook moreattractive dishes and make their food more delicious and varied.&

Engineering students are supposed to beexamples of practicality and rationality (理性), but when it comes to my college education I am an idealist and afool. In high school I wanted to be an electrical engineer and, of course, anyreasonable student with my aims would have chosen a college with a largeengineering department, many famous professors and lots of good labs andresearch equipment. But that's not what I did. I chose to study engineering at a smallliberal-arts (文科)university that doesn't even offer a major in electrical engineering.Obviously, this was no I came here for more noble reasons.I wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a valuesystem to guide me in my job. I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision bycommunicating with people who weren't studying science or engineering. Myparents, teachers and other adults praised me for such a wise choice. They toldme I was wise and grown-up beyond my 18 years, and I believed them. 　Iheaded off to the college and sure I was going to have an advantage over thosestudents who went to big engineering &factories& where they didn'tcare if you had values or were flexible. I was going to be a complete engineer:technical expert and excellent humanist all in one. 　NowI'm not so sure. Somewhere along the way my noble ideas crashed into reality,as all noble ideas finally do. After three years of struggling to balance math,physics and engineering courses with liberal-arts courses, I have learned thereare reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile engineering withliberal-arts courses in college. 　Thereality that has blocked my path to become the typical successful student isthat engineering and the liberal arts simply don't mix as easily as I supposedin high school. Individually they shape a person in very different ways. Thestruggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult. 1.Why did the author choose to studyengineering at a small liberal-arts university?
A．He intended to become an engineer and humanist.
B．He intended to be a reasonable student with noble ideals.
C．He wanted to be an example of practicality and rationality.

2.According to the author, by communicatingwith people who study liberal arts, engineering students can ___________.
A．become noble idealists
B．broaden their knowledge
C．find a better job in the future
D．balance engineering and liberal arts
3. Which word below can replace theunderlined word “reconcile”?
A．confuse
B．compare
C．combine
D．compete
4.The underlined sentence in 1st paragraphmeans ___________.
A．he has failed to achieve his ideal aims
B．he is not a practical and rational student
C．his choice of attending to a small liberal-arts university is reasonable
D．his idea of combining engineering with liberal - arts is noble and wise
5. The author suggests in this passage that___________.
