In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, tolerance and reliability.
Above all, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how the other is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.
At the same time, however, a good friend is tolerant. He does not look for faults in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.
There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with.
A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable, tolerant and understanding. I know I’ve found a friend!

The nation's largest group of pediatricians(小儿科医生) on Monday urged its members to “firmly oppose boxing for any child or adolescent.”
In a statement, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) said thousands of boys and girls take part in the sport in North America, despite risks of serious brain and facial injuries. The group’s position was approved by some experts.
“There is very little one can do in order to increase the chance of having a healthy brain when you get old,” said Dr. Hans Forstl, who has studied boxing injuries.
“ One of the best things you can do is avoid boxing.” He said.
According to the new statement, published in the journal Pediatrics, information from Canada shows a rise in boxing injuries over the past decade.
Pat Russo, a retired police officer who runs a boxing gym in Brooklyn, New York, said injuries are rare in amateur boxing. After 26 years and training thousands of kids, he has seen just one split lip among his students.
“ If the gym is run properly, injuries are at an absolute minimum,” Russo said. “Football is ten times more dangerous. While tennis or football might also help kids gain confidence, boxing holds a special attraction for children in poor neighborhoods, because it allows them to act tough while in trouble.”
Dr. Robert Cantu, a surgeon (外科医生) at Emerson Hospital in Concord, Massachusetts, said AAP’s attitude makes sense for upper-class and middle-class kids.
“ Clearly boxing is safer today than it was 20 or 30 years ago, but it is still a very risky activity,” he said.
“For kids in poor areas, however, the situation is different,” said Cantu. “ The most dangerous thing for the majority of people in boxing is just where they live. They are far safer in the ring (拳击场), even taking blows to the head, than they are out in the neighborhood.”
28. The statement released by AAP was ___________.
A. strongly against boxing for children B. focused on professional boxing
C. based on Dr. Hans Forstl’s research D. approved by Pat Russo
29. Pat Russo believes that boxing injuries are____________.
A. still on the rise today B. not common in poor neighborhood
C. not a serious problem in his gym D. more dangerous than football injuries
30. In the text, Dr. Robert Cantu expressed his concern about __________.
A. children’s security in poor neighborhood
B. the development of boxing among children
C. the attitude of upper-class kids toward boxing
D. brain injuries occurring in boxing matches
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. The development of boxing gyms B. The disadvantage of doing boxing
C. Children’s risk of injury in boxing D. Measures to improve boxing safety
D
Picky eaters may have good reasons for their behaviour. No matter why your child has become picky, how you handle the situation can affect his or her future. Therefore, you should know the following reasons for picky children first of all.
Neophobia is common in children; it often happens at the dinner table. Some children just refuse to try new food because they don’t know what it will taste like, while others dislike new food before even smelling it. Some children take it to the extreme and will only eat a few foods that they like. Psychologist Dr. Elizabeth Capaldi says that, by the time children reach the age of two, they have formed their own eating habits that they don’t want to be disturbed by new offerings at the table.
A newly published study led by Dr. Lucy Cooke of University College London showed that picky eating in children results from genetic and environmental causes. The research, which followed the eating habits of 5,390 pairs of twins between the ages of 8 and 11, found that about 75% of the neophobia in the children was from their parents, while 25% was due to the influence of environment.
Children grow at a high speed during their first year, but that fast-paced growth tends to slow down by their second year. When children are not experiencing one of those fast growth periods, their body needs less energy; and that results in a smaller appetite. When children are not hungry, they tend to enjoy only food they like. They refuse new food and food that is not their favorite. Some children will limit the amount of food to only one kind, like hamburgers or pancakes, leaving all the other foods untouched.
In some cases, many real reasons why a child behaves as a picky eater exist. About 5% of children who are 10 years of age or younger have some type of neurological dysfunction(神经机能障碍) that influences their eating habits. These children may be easily hurt by some special smells, or their brain may not be able to process such sensory information properly.
32. The underlined word “Neophobia” in Paragraph 2 probably means______.
A. the fear of something new or unknown B. the worry about the amount of new food
C. the feeling of eating at the dinner table D. the fear of eating tasty food
33. What can we learn about the study led by Dr. Cooke?
A. It paid more attention to the environmental effects on children’s eating habits.
B. It followed the eating habits of 5,390 children aged between 8 and 11.
C. It showed that genetics greatly affect children’s eating habits.
D. It suggested that parents should have good eating habits.
34. The fourth paragraph mainly tells us that _______.
A. children’s growth speed stays the same in the first two years
B. children develop their own diet when they grow up
C. children tends to eat less when they grow up
D. children’s growth has an effect on their diet
35. The reason mentioned in the last paragraph has something to do with a child’s_______
A. exercise B. sense C. habit D. interest
