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 (品质) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability .

Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person 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 honest. 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, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend!

Schools select individuals and teams to participate in competitions. Local competitions are held in February with winners progressing to state competitions and then on to the national level. Mathcounts works to challenge student math skills, develop self-confidence and give rewards for their achievements.

Envirothon

What is time? Is it a thing to be saved or spent or wasted, like money? Or is it something we have no control over, like the weather? Is it the same all over the world? That’s an easy question, you say.Wherever you go, a minute is 60 seconds, an hour is 60 minutes, a day is 24 hours, and so forth.Well, maybe.But in America, time is more than that.Americans see time as a valuable resource.Maybe that’s why they are fond of the expression, “Time is money.”

Because Americans believe time is a limited resource, they try to keep and manage it.People in the US often attend conferences or read books on time management.It seems they all want to organize their time better.Professionals carry around pocket planners(计划书) — some in electronic form — to keep track of appointments and deadlines.People do all they can to press more life out of their time.

To Americans, punctuality is a way of showing respect for other people’s time.Being more than 10 minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apology, and maybe an explanation.People who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delay.Of course, the less formal the situation, the less important it is to be exactly on time.At informal get-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes past the appointed time.But they usually don’t try that at work.

American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others.When people plan an event, they often set time days or weeks in advance.Once the time is fixed, it takes almost an emergency to change it.If people want to come to your house for a friendly visit, they will usually call first to make sure it is convenient.Only very close friends will just “drop by” unannounced.Also, people hesitate to call others late at night for fear they might be in bed.The time may vary, but most folks think twice about calling after 10:00 pm.

Even Americans would admit that no one can master time.Time, like money, slips all too easily through our finger.And time, like the weather, is very hard to predict.However, time is one of life’s most precious gifts.

57.The main idea of the passage is _______.

A.time is money B.different attitude toward time in the world

C.how to save time D.how Americans treat time

58.In the fourth paragraph, the writer mainly tells us that _________.

A.Americans respect others’ time in daily life

B.Americans seldom call after 10:00

C.Americans inform before paying a visit to their friends

D.when planning an event, Americans usually fix time ahead of time

59.The underlined phrase “think twice” (in Paragraph 4) probably means “_______ “.

A.think for a second time B.be careful

C.be afraid D.pay attention

60.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

A.Americans like time better than anything else

B.generally speaking, Americans respect their time

C.on the whole, Americans treasure their time

D.Americans consider their time is difficult to master and predict

第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)

根据短文内容，从下框的A – F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。

61.

Americans are far more knowledgeable about drinks than they were 20 years ago.Witness the Starbucks revolution and you’ll know where the trend goes.Now, encouraged by recent studies suggesting that it can cut the risk of cancer and heart disease and slow the aging process, tea is enjoying a similar change.Enough fashionable tea houses are springing up to make even longtime coffee drinkers consider switching drinks.

62.

Tea is available in more places than ever.The Tea Association of the United States reports that from 1990 to 1999, annual sales of the drink grew to $4.6 billion from $1.8 billion.“ Green tea is seen by consumers as a ‘functional food’” — delivering health benefits beyond food itself, says Vierhile.

63.

Recently published studies point out that only teas that come from the leaves of the plant Camellia sinensis have been shown to contain health benefits.Other herbal teas may taste good, yet they do little more than warm up the drinker.But for Camellia sinensis, the evidence is powerful.In a 1998 study, Harvard University researchers found that drinking one cup of black tea a day lowered the risk of heart attack by as much as 44 percent compared with non-tea drinkers, and other studies have suggested that the antioxidants (抗氧化剂) in these so-called real teas can also prevent cancer.

64.

One such antioxidant in green tea is ECGC, a compound 20 times as powerful as vitamin E and 200 times as powerful as vitamin C.“When people ask me for something good and cheap they can do to reduce their cancer risk, I tell them to drink real tea,” says Mitchell Gaynor, director of medical oncology at New York City’s Strang-Cornell Cancer Prevention Center.

65.

Among those inspired to become a green-tea drinker is Tess Ghilaga, a New York writer who took it up after seeking advice from a nutritionist six years ago.“I’ve never been a coffee drinker,” says Ghilaga, 33.“She told me to start drinking green tea for the antioxidant qualities.” Now Ghilaga and her husband habitually make tea — they order theirs from InPursuitofTea.com, an Internet tea company.And although tea contains about half the amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee, “you still get such a kick from it,” says Ghilaga.
