• 2．Dear Mike，
     I have been so worried these days.I think performing onstage is the only way I can become more popular at school.But I have stage fright （怯場）.I get so nervous every time I get onstage，even if I'm just talking about the simplest things.My nervousness destroys my hope.I feel like I will never be popular at school.What should I do？
  Miracle
  Dear Miracle，
     Firstly，it is natural to feel nervous onstage.My suggestion would be to do a calming activity，such as drinking tea，taking a deep breath，listening to some light music or meditating （冥想），before you perform.However，I have to wonder if performing is the only way for you to become more popular.Perhaps you can do something else to impress （使……印象深刻） your classmates.Everyone is good at something.But finally，I also wonder if you really need to be more popular in the first place.Do you have at least a few close friends？Are your studies going well？Are you healthy？If so，maybe you don't need to care so much about being popular.Not everyone is going to like you all the time.But as long as you have a few close friends and a family to support you，you won't need all those other people.
  Mike

• 4．You may study differently from your friends，but your study habits are not wrong!
     Kelly and Maria are best friends with a lot in common.They love doing things together，such as going to movies and concerts，shopping，or just sitting at a small cafe.Since they take a lot of the same school subjects，they would love to study together，but they find this impossible.Their working styles are so completely different that they can't be in the same room while they are studying!
     Kelly would like to study in a clean，open space，while Maria works best with books，papers and other things around her.Kelly prefers to study in a totally silent room，but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on.Kelly can sit for hours without moving，and often gets all her homework done in one sitting.Maria，however，is always getting up，and says that she thinks best when she's on the move.
     You might be asking yourself：which way of studying gets better results？Many people believe that a silent，tidy setting（環境）is the way to go，▲.Some research has even shown that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus（聚焦）their attention，because it makes them form a "wall" in their mind around what they are doing and improves their focus.
     So，if you're a student who chooses to study while sitting at a table in a busy shopping center，don't worry about it.If you work in total silence，that's OK，too.Judging from Kelly 's and Maria's study habits，the best way to study is the way that works for you.In their very different ways，both of them do well in school，and both finish their work within the required time as well.
  
  （1）Kelly and Maria are mentioned as an example in this passage to

  .
  A．discuss two different study habits
  B．compare the differences in their hobbies
  C．show the importance of a good study habit
  D．express the writer's worry about their friendship
  （2）Which of the following is the best to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4？

  
  A．and they have difficulty in study
  B．and it can be true for most of them
  C．but that doesn't seem necessarily true
  D．but nobody does research on this question
  （3）What can we infer from the last paragraph of this passage？

  
  A．Students who like to study in silence will be more successful.
  B．Both study habits can help students make progress in their studies.
  C．Only a small number of students can study well in a noisy situation.
  D．Friends with different study habits can do better by studying together.
  （4）What can be the best title for the passage？

  
  A．Are you studying the "right" way？
  B．How can you improve your study habits？
  C．Is it possible for friends to study well together？
  D．What are the advantages of different study settings？

• 5．Everybody enjoys acts of kindness.But can you explain why？Some people think kindness is something out of love and care，while others believe it is just a tool that we use to become more popular.But research shows that being kind can activate （激活）an area of the brain called Striatum.Research also shows that kindness improves people's mood （情緒）.But why and how does it happen？Here are a number of different ways.
     Being kind can make someone smile.If you see yourself smile in a situation，people around may be smiling，too.This is especially true for your close friends and family.A kind act makes someone who is sad feel better.It can also make ourselves feel good.So why not set off that chain（鏈條）of good feelings to people around？
     Secondly，being kind starts or develops a social connection with others.Kind acts like buying someone a present make friendships stronger.Research has shown that spending money on others may help you get a stronger feeling of happiness than spending it on yourself.Similarly，charities（慈善）also open up new circles of people to connect with someone on the other side of the world.
     In another recent research，even children in their first year of secondary school know how being kind makes them feel happy.If one person is kind，he or she makes others in the group kind.It also lifts everyone's spirits.Imagine that you make cakes for the office and it makes others do it each month.Then you're getting cakes a lot more days than providing them.
     The story doesn't end here.Being kind may improve your mood，but research has also shown that if you're in a good mood，you can act much more kindly.This makes it a wonderful two﹣way relationship，doesn't it？
  
  （1）How does the writer lead in the topic？

  
  A．telling a story
  B．asking questions
  C．giving examples
  D．making a survey
  （2）The underlined word"It" in Paragraph 2 refers to "

  ".
  A．the situation
  B．the family
  C．the kind act
  D．that chain
  （3）Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage？

  
  A．
  B．
  C．
  D．
  （4）If you were an editor（編輯），you'd put the above passage in "

  "of a newspaper.
  A．Science
  B．Sports
  C．Invention
  D．Culture
