26、 Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, 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 don’t 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 count on one another to speak and act honestly.
Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your lunch money or your clothes, or enjoy, like our hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them you help your friend know you better.
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. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.
No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friendships, you must practice honesty. Generosity and understanding.
【1】Some friendships don’t last very long because .
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 friendships receive friendships from others
D.those who never give others friendships receive no friendship from others

【3】Which of the following is NOT true in the passage?
A.A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.

D.Sharing your mind with your friend is of great value.
27、 Banff National Park, Canada*s first national park, is filled with wonderful scenery provided by the Canadian Rockies, valleys, forests and plentiful wildlife. The park is popular with people. Here is an overview of the most popular attractions in Banff National Park:
Johnston Canyon
The main activity at Johnston Canyon is to hike to the Lower Falls, Upper Falls and Ink Pots. Getting to the Upper Falls includes a 2. 7-kilometer hike that starts from behind the Johnston Canyon Resort. This path is considered one of the busiest in the Canadian Rockies, because hundreds of tourists like making the 45-minute hike every day.
Banff Gondola
Travelers want to make sure they have plenty of memory cards before they board Banff Gondola. That’s because the views from the four-passenger gondola cars (空中缆车)are fantastic . Once at the top, visitors can take the skywalk to get to a historic site and meteorological station (气象站).Banff Gondola is closed in winter. But there are also hiking paths to the top.
Banff Upper Hot Springs
Banff Upper Hot Springs is a perfect place to relax after a day on the hiking or ski ways. Visitors have been coming to this Banff attraction since the 1880s to bath in the therapeutic (治疗的)mineral waters, though First Nations were doing that long before the railroad opened up this part of Canada.
Peyto Lake
Considered one of the prettiest lakes in the world, Peyto Lake is best seen from Bow Summit on the parkway, about 39 km from Lake Louise. It takes travelers about 15 minutes to walk to an observation platform to overlook the lake.
【1】Why do many tourists travel to Johnston Canyon a lot?

28、Motivation is the desire to act in service of a goal. It’s the crucial element in setting and attaining our objectives. Some of the most common goals people make—and the most common goals they struggle to meet—are to eat healthier, work out more, and save more money. Many traps can prevent people from achieving those goals, but predicting those challenges can help achieve real change.
Many people struggle to stick to a diet. Research suggests that extrinsic (外在的) motivators—to avoid hurtful comments or fit into an outfit—can jumpstart the process but that intrinsic motivation—interest, enjoyment, and challenge in the journey—is key to sustained, lasting weight loss.【1】So it’s helpful to choose a diet that will be sustainable and effective and believe that the diet, start date, and end goals have been chosen autonomously and not “assigned” by others.
There are a few creative ideas to consider if motivation is a barrier to exercise. One is to widen the options you have: If you don’t have time to go to the gym, exercise by going for a walk, doing a bodyweight circuit, or watching a yoga video.【2】Yet you can also establish a social contract with a friend or family member. For example, if you allow phone time to replace exercise, you must donate to a cause of the other person’s choosing.
【3】The first is to set a specific saving goal for an emergency fund. This focused goal will build habits that become sustainable saving. The second is to save something every day, even if it’s just a few dollars, because repeat helps to form habits. Third, making savings visible, whether by checking a savings account online or keeping cash in a glass jar.【4】 In addition to cultivating a saving attitude, it’s important to change a spending mindset.
Most people, unfortunately, fail to follow through on their New Year’s resolutions. This might be because people tend to set overwhelming goals, engage in all-or-nothing thinking, don’t predict barriers, and beat themselves up when they get off track. By addressing those traps, people are more likely to truly achieve their goals.
Motivation is one of the driving forces behind human behavior. It fuels competition and sparks social connection. Its absence can lead to mental illnesses such as depression. 【5】 It’s the key factors in setting and achieving our goals.
A.It is helpful to find a community of supporters.
B.People can break large goals into smaller pieces.
C.Eventually, consistently spend less than you make.
D.The following steps can help cultivate the habit of saving money.
E.Intrinsic motivation includes competence, autonomy, and relatedness.
F.Motivation includes the desire toward meaning, purpose, and a life worth living.
G.Another is to make exercise more enjoyable, such as by listening to a book on tape.
29、 Kitchens are considered one of the most dangerous areas of a home, for children and for seniors. Many more accidents and falls occur in the kitchen. Keeping the kitchen a safe environment isn’t always easy, but it can be accomplished through a series of steps.
Look at the kitchen with a critical eye and realize that what may seem perfectly harmless to you may be a potential threat to your elderly father. Watch out for dangerous objects that you take for granted. This can mean anything from the cookers to the cleaning supplies stored under the sink. Considering elderly parents, safety is the key issue.
As most caregivers of elderly parents know, it is often very difficult to convince your Mom or Dad to change their habits. However, stress the importance of safety whenever possible. If your parent is suffering from a cognitive disorder, remind him or her not to place canned goods in the microwave or be careful with knives that just doesn’t work. It’s up to you to unplug the microwave and to place the kitchen knives in a secured drawer.
Many caregivers of elderly parents hesitate to make such changes because they are afraid of hurting feelings. However, when compared to the alternative, it's best to be firm and make safety a priority. Nevertheless, ensuring elderly parent safety in the house, not just the kitchen, is important. As many elders develop cognitive issues, it may be difficult for him or her to tell between safe and unsafe.
Ensure that any room in the house, especially the kitchen, has safe access for those using canes and walkers. It’s not an easy task, but with a little planning and a developed course of action, you can help make the kitchen one of the safest areas of the house, and not the other way around.
