Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is

why some friendships do not last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must

learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend

means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.

Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not

tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may

lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always trust one another to speak and act honestly.

Generosity (大度) means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give

your lunch money or your clothes of course. Instead you have to learn how to share things you

enjoy, like your hobbies and your interest. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings.

These can be very valuable to a friend.

Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at

school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step

in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand.

No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If

you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity, and understanding.

A. there are too many people who want to make friends

B. they don’t know friendship is something serious

C. those who give others friendship receive friendship from others

D. some people receive friendship but don’t give friendship back

B. Sharing your mind with your friends is of great value.

C. Discussing your problems with your friend often helps to solve the problem.

D. A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.

Of all the animals in the animal kingdom, which one (aside from man) is the cleverest?

There are several ways of measuring the intelligence of animals. In one test a scientist sets three

same cans on a table. While the animal watches, he puts food under one of the cans. Then he leads

the animal away. Some time later, he brings it back to see if it remembers which can has the food.

No smelling is allowed; the animal must go directly to the correct can or it fails.

This is called a delayed- response text. The idea is to find out how long an animal’s memory can

keep information. The scientists would try showing the cans to the animal one hour later, or two

hours later, or even a full day later. They discovered that chimpanzees and elephants had the best

memory, and were able to remember the correct can for at least twenty hours. No other animal is

close. Dogs came next, but they only remembered for nine hours.

To settle the matter, the scientists designed a huge maze (迷宫) and ran the chimps and elephants

through it. The maze was very difficult, with many blind paths and dead ends. It took the chimps

(chimpanzees) ten minutes to find their way out. The elephants needed half an hour. Even allowing

for the elephants’ slower rate of speed, the test shows that chimpanzees are the cleverest animals.

From this and other tests, the scientists drew the following conclusion: an animal’s intelligence

depends on the size of its brain in proportion (比例) to the size of its body. The elephant’s brain

weighs ten pounds. But this is only 1/600th of its 6,000 pounds body. A chimp’s brain weighs

about one pound, or 1/120th of its total body weight. So in proportion to its body size, the chimp has

four times as much brain as the elephant----more brain for less body. The chimp is the champ!

8. Which is the best title?

A. The Elephant’s Memory B. The Chimp’s Brain

C. Judging Intelligence D. The Cleverest Animal

9. According to the passage, a rhinoceros (犀牛) that weighs 2100 pounds, and has a 3-pound

brain is .

A. as clever as a chimp B. more clever than an elephant

C. less clever than an elephant D. as clever as an elephant

10. The delayed-response test is designed to test an animal’s .

A. memory B. brain

C. learning ability D. eyesight

11. The passage tells that elephants______.

A. are slower-moving than chimps

B. are more clever than chimps

C. never forget things

D. have better memories than chimps

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my

parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma

City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register,

I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.

I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I

stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken

to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the

city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.

I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas

present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holiday

meaningful.

Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my

car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery was dead. Then I noticed that the
