Making friends might seem to come easy for so...

Making friends might seem to come easy for some persons, but it’s maybe very hard for most persons. No matter how many friends you might already have, it is always a good idea to make new friends.

Being shy keeps a lot of people from making friends. Also, making friends might need a person to step outside of their comfortable places, which are hard for a lot of people, whether they are shy or not. However, overcoming the shyness to step out of your box is an important step in making friends.

There are lots of ways to meet new friends. First of all, remember that a good friendship is based on interests, so if you are ready to make friends, start to join clubs or go places where you have interest. For instance, if you like to play sports, join a sports team or after school sports club. If you have interests in music or writing, join clubs or organizations that you are interested in. When you see someone in a place like that, and you think that they look nice, it is always a good idea to go up to them and introduce yourself and ask interesting questions so that you can start a conversation. Don't put too much pressure on yourself, and remember that friendships don't always happen quickly.

Some friendships happen right away, and you'll be able to tell if someone will be a great friend right after you meet them. Some friendships take a long time to develop. Anyway, the friends that you meet are going to be worth it. If a friendship develops quickly, it doesn't mean that it is extra valuable, and if a friendship takes a long time to develop, it doesn't mean that it isn't worth it because it's too hard.

Making friends might be a bit difficult for you, and the friends you will make may not look anything like you. However, even though it might be scary to start conversations, you are worth doing it. All friendships start with a single hello.

Once again, God seems to have put a homeless person in my path. Lately, I have regularly come into contact with people that I just can’t ignore .

His name is Mark and I was surprised to hear that he is only three years older than me. He looks so much older! He was on the counter, asking for money. I parked my car and plonked(砰地放下) myself down on the curb(路边) to talk. People were driving by and looking at us, but I didn’t care.

He told me about his life. How much of his story I believe, I don’t know. He told me he was dying----that part I believe, for he could hardly walk and had trouble catching his breath.

I asked what I could do to help him. He said all he wanted was a slice of pizza. I gave him $3, the only cash I had . He said he wanted to go to get the food himself, but he was stopped from the shopping center for begging. I said I would get it for him and asked if he wanted something to drink .

Then he asked for a(n) ride to the trail in the woods where he had his tent. Usually I don’t give rides to strangers, but this was just up the street, and quite honestly he had no physical threat to me. When we parted, he held my hand for a long time and we just looked at each other wordlessly for a few moments.

At that time, he wasn’t a homeless man and I wasn’t a sufferer .We became just two souls making a human connection I don’t know if I will ever see him again, but I know I will never forget him. God bless you, Mark, and your beautiful blue eyes and gentle soul.

1.“ignore” in the first paragraph may mean ___________.

A. notice　　 B. pay no attention to　　 C. care for　　 D. forget

2.Why did the writer agree to give Mark a free ride ?

A. Because he wanted to help the homeless person without any doubt.

B. Because he was willing to help anyone.

C. Because he thought Mark was not strong enough to harm him.

D. Because he thought Mark was gentle.

3.The passage shows what Mark was like through the use of ________.

A. description of his thoughts.　　 B. description of his dialogue.

C. description of his looks and actions　　 D. people around him

4.Paragraph 5 is mainly about _________.

A. How to help Mike　　 B. Mike’s influence on the writer

C. Why the author agreed to help Mike　　 D. How the writer felt about Mike’s own stories

His famous parents might be worth(:身价)￡165 million，but it seems Brooklyn

Beckham decides not to depend on them．Instead，the 15-year-old boy is learning the real meaning of money…by making his own．

Brooklyn Beckham，Victoria and David Beckham’s eldest child，has started a weekend job at a West London coffee shop where he is paid￡2.68 an hour．A member of staff said that Brooklyn did start working in the shop and got on OK with other members．News of his decision to make his own money and not depend on his rich parents made him a good model for other teenagers．

Last year, Beckham，who had retired from football，said，“We try to lead by example，by showing them it’s important to work hard．”And one friend of his family said that Brooklyn would have been encouraged to take the job by his parents．

Children who grow up in different cultures have different views on money．

In many western countries，children are usually taught to believe that money is made instead of being given．They usually buy things with their own pocket money．They take up part-time jobs in their free time．However，most of the Chinese children don’t have any conscious(意识)of making money through their own hard work．Some children think that their parents will support them forever．Whenever they meet difficulties，they will turn to their parents or friends for help．Why can’t they solve these problems by their own? The main reason is that they are always depending on others．In fact，they have got the ability to work out these easy problems．

Children in western countries show their independence(独立性)．They take pride in themselves by making their own decisions．Many Chinese children，however，are still looking to their parents or even their grandparents to tell them what to do or which job they should choose．

As secondary school students，we should learn to be more independent．We should find some new ways to solve old problems．What we are learning in schol or after school now will be very helpful some day．To us students who want to make great achievements in the future，it is the most important to learn how to be independent．
