More than 50 music students of New Milford High School in New Jersey, US, got a letter from their headmaster. The letter said that the music department of the school was in big trouble. The students had to pass a test, or the department(系) would be shut down.

On a Saturday, two officials greeted the nervous students. They asked the students to play a piece by Richard Strauss. But they had to sing the words to the music – German words!

Other tasks were also difficult. One student had to sing Mary had a Little Lamb, a children’s song, in an operatic (歌剧的) voice.

After three hours of testing, students waited for the results. They met some students from the New Jersey Youth Orchestra (管弦乐团). The judges(裁判员) gave them only a passing grade.

The worried New Milford students started to realize they had no chance. “I thought it was over,” said Bryan Olsen-Santana, a junior. “The person next to me was crying. I felt bad for her. I felt bad for myself, too, because music is everything to me.”

But then the headmaster came and told them something very dramatic (戏剧性的): “Someone’s played a joke on you!”

What was going on?

The test was part of a reality TV show (电视真人秀) called “Schooled”. The students’ parents, the school and a TV network had made it together.

Everything was fake. The two “officials” were really comedians (喜剧演员). The “students from New Jersey Youth Orchestra” were from another school. There were hidden cameras. The students’ parents were hiding as they watched.

As a reward for putting up with the joke, the students got gifts: MP3 players, digital cameras and school supplies. They were all from the show’s sponsor (赞助商).

1.What is the letter about?

A. The headmaster would come back next term.

B. The school didn’t have money to run.

C. The music department was in big trouble.

D. The students had to give up music.

2. The students were nervous before the test, because _____.

A. they were not good at music　　　

B. the judges were very strict

C. they thought they couldn’t pass

D. it would decide the future of the music department

3. According to Olsen-Santana, we learn that _____.

A. their school failed the test　　　

B. he likes music very much

C. the test was just a joke　　　　　

D. the girl next to him was sorry for herself

4.What does the underlined word “fake” mean in the passage?

A. 顺利的 　　 　　　　 B. 假扮的　　　　

C. 受欢迎的 　　　　 D. 便捷的

5.The students didn’t get _____ as gifts.

A. money　　　 　　　　　　 B. MP3 players

“No man is an island” is a well-known line from John Donne’s Devotion, written more than three hundred years ago. Even now people still agree with him. No one can live a completely isolated life. Without other people, life became empty and sad. We all need friends.

For some of us, though making friends is not difficult, feeling shy, we may not want to make the first move. It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.

There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People, written in 1936, is the most famous. This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best-seller. It was later put into 28 languages.

Dale Carnegie’s advice seems to be simple, but can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book.

1. Be friendly and polite.

Always greet with a smile. Begin with “excuse me” or “would you please”, when you want to ask somebody. Remember to say “thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.

2. Go out of your way to be nice.

Find some time to do special things for other people. Making some soup for a sick neighbour may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your neighbour feel a lot better.

3. Remember names.

They say that the sweetest music to a person’s ears is the sound of his or her own name.

4. Be open-minded.

Try to understand other people’s ways and ideas and learn something from them.

5. Listen patiently.

When someone is talking to you, look at him or her, listen carefully and say something when necessary.

1.The first sentence “No man is an island” means__________.

A. no one can live on an island　　　　　　 B. everyone needs friends

C. man enjoys living alone　　　　　　　　　 D. we all should be friendly

2.We can learn from this passage that ________.

A. John Donne learned something from Dale Carnegie

B. the writer mainly tells people to behave politely

C. Carnegie’s book was read by a small number of people

D. the writer agrees with John Donne and Dale Carnegie

3. Dale Carnegie advises you _________.

A. not to visit your neighbour too often

B. not to say anything when someone talks to you

C. not to forget other people’s names

D. not to spend time doing something for others

4. The best possible title for this passage should be “________”.

C. Friendship First　　　　　　　　 D. John Donne and Dale Carnegie
