Some researchers explain how most people form their social groups with people of their age. Especially, as children and teenagers， even adults， people make their friends based on proximity （邻近） more than anything else． Even in a college classroom，the students may not make friends with those who have similar personalities and interests． It's the people they really sit next to．Clearly，who stands to you has the greatest influence on you．As Jim Rohn has widely said． "You are average （平均） of five people you spend the most time with．"

Over the past ten months， I've paid Ryan， it Famous writer of several bestselling books， to help with the book I'm writing． Working with him has shown me just how low my standards for my work are． For example， every time I send him a drab （草稿）， he shows me how it could be 10 times better，and he holds me to that standard．

It's because that I don't know what I don't know． Working with Ryan has made me realize what is possible and what it takes to create something powerful．

Like Ryan，my business partner Richard has wonderful ideas and far different experience than I have．He has written 36 New York Times Bestsellers．He's been speaking and doing events for 20 years．Richard always performs at high levels，and he is also very strict with me because my performance is a reflection （反映） on him． It's not a bad thing because it creates high pressure （压力） to help me make great progress in organizing author training．

In a word，you need to stay with those people who can help you realize your level and potential．Staying with people who have higher standards is the fastest way for you to change．If you don't change your environment， your progress will be very slow． Who you stay with has huge importance． You can't ignore this．

1.Why did the writer quote （引用） Jim Rohn's words in Paragraph 1？

A.To support the writer's opinion． B.To introduce the writer's best friend．

C.To show Jim Rohn's working ability． D.To prove Jim Rohn is a great person．

2.Which of the following can be put at the beginning of Paragraph 3？

A.It's not that my workmates' abilities are low．

B.It's not that my working ability was born low．

C.It's not that' e friends based on proximity．

D.It's not that I've paid Ryan to help me with my book．

3.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refer to （指代）？

A.The writer's performance． B.Jim Rohn's famous saying．

C.Richard's different experience． D.Richard's strictness with the writer．

4.The writer mainly wants to tell us that　　　 　．

Most people use their mouths to talk, but do you know same people use their hands to speak? Some people who cannot hear use their hands to communicate messages to others. This is called sign language. These people make shapes with their fingers, movements with their hands, as well as different faces in order to talk to other people.

One way people speak with their hands is by making shapes for letters with their fingers. For example, if you make an "OK" sign with your thumb and finger, that is the shape for the letter "f" in American sign language. Each letter has a hand shape. This way people can spell words using their hands. For example, if you want to spell "fun", you need to make three shapes. First you make the shape for the letter "f", then the shape for the letter "u", and then the shape for the letter "n".

___________. If you move your hand from your nose to your chin(下巴), you can say“mother” in American sign language. Of course, you have to use the correct hand shape, too. That shape is like holding your hand open with all five fingers showing. If you move your hand from the top of your head to your chin, you can say "father＂， Again, you have to use the same hand shape that you used for "mother".

Finally, people can change their faces to communicate in a sign language. For example, if you want to ask a question, you need to make your eyebrows (眉毛) go up. You also need to move your head forward a little.

If you want to say "I do not know", you need to make your eyes smaller and make your eyebrows go down.

1.If you want to spell the word "nice", you need to make _______ hand shapes.

A. one

B. two

C. three

D. four

2.Which of the following can be put in the blank in Paragraph 3?

A. People also need to learn sign language

B. People also make hand shapes to communicate

C. People also move their hands to talk in a sign language

D. People also make different faces to express their meanings

3.You need to use your _______ to say "I do not know" in American sign language.

A. eyes and eyebrows

B. eyes and head

C. hand and head

D. fingers and eyes

4.The purpose of the passage is to _________.

A. help people know more about America

B. introduce American sign language to readers

C. teach readers how to make hand shapes

D. encourage people to use more sign language

What do people do with their old, out of date but still useful computers? Most people don’t know how to deal with them. Many old computers are put away. Many more are simply thrown away as rubbish.

Finally, some companies are thinking of ways to bring down the number of old computers. Sony has agreed to help recycle old Sony products(产品). Dell, Hewlett Packard and other companies now also take back some old computers of their own brands.

In some countries, laws have been passed, too. Computer companies have to pay for collecting and recycling their used products. And 70% of the computer waste must be recycled. The idea behind the laws is that computer companies themselves should pay for the cost. That will encourage them to make computers which are easier and cheaper to repair and upgrade(升级).

Yet many people are throwing away good computers, while others cannot afford them at all. Hundreds of organizations are working on this problem. They collect and repair old computers. Some also teach others how to repair computers. These repaired computers then go to schools, charities(慈善团体) or people who need them. Giving a used computer to one of these organizations can turn one person’s rubbish into someone else’s useful things and cut down waste, too.
