Then we both decided to go to the nearby town to attend the wedding and come back together. After the reception was over, we were waiting for a public transport bus to go back home. It was nine o’clock at night, and although many buses passed, none stopped.‎ We waited for an hour and were getting desperate. We wouldn’t be able to stay overnight because it was weekday, and we both needed to work the next day. It was almost 10pm when a family who had attended the same wedding passed by in their car. Probably sensing that we were waiting for some means of transport, they stopped and gave us a lift.I was so touched by their kindness, and I expressed my gratitude to them.‎ When we reached my hometown, the family dropped us at the nearest ‎ point from where we could catch a shared taxi to get back to the spot where we had parked our bike. On the way, a laborer stopped the taxi. The driver saw his clothes and asked him whether he had money to pay the fare. The laborer shook his head and said, “No”.On hearing this, the driver refused to take him.‎ I remembered my own trouble a few minutes earlier, and I told the driver to allow him to sit with us, as I would pay his fare. What an immediate opportunity to pass on the family’s act of kindness! That night, I felt lightness in my heart, and I went to sleep happily and filled with joy about what I had gotten to do. How I wish this chain of kindness could continue all over the world with your help! That is why today I especially share my story with you!‎ 1.

As an English-speaking country, you won’t be faced with any language barriers. Melbourne is easy to get around because you can walk or bike practically anywhere! ‎ Thailand 　‎ Thailand is great for solo travelers—perhaps because it is one of the Buddhist mindsets, which promote equality among the sexes. ‎ Why it’s a great choice: Thailand is known for its friendly atmosphere, and as a travel hot-spot, there are plenty of chances to meet other like-minded travelers. Well known for being very cheap, especially in the north. A good choice if you want to get away on a budget. Thailand has a lot to offer, from the party-central Bangkok to beautiful beaches and tropical（热带）jungle.‎ Hong Kong, China ‎ Hong Kong is a great place to relax for solo travelers as it is full of “Zen moments,” such as beautiful gardens and Tai Chi classes. 　‎ Why it’s a great choice: Hong Kong is regarded as one of the safest cities in the world. If you’re not well-traveled, or perhaps a bit tired of things like language barriers, Hong Kong is a great place to start, as it mixes both Eastern and Western at the same time. ‎ Bali, Indonesia ‎ Bali is a spiritual place with yoga, spas, healthy food and beaches. The ‎ combination of friendly people and splendidly visual culture has made Bali Indonesia number one tourist attraction. 　‎ Why it’s so great: You won’t be the only solo traveler in Bali. Everyone is known for being extremely friendly and you’re sure to meet some amazing characters along the way. As a Hindu island, Bali is the perfect place for a relaxing and spiritual retreat（静修）. The Sacred Monkey Forest in Ubud is fantastic—if you like monkeys, anyway. ‎ ‎8. What do the four places have in common according to the text?‎ A. They’re cheap to travel around. B.

A travel journal. B. A business report. ‎ ‎ C. A travel guide. D.A press advertisement.‎ D Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Sure, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.‎ ‎ No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well. That doesn’t mean they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named in this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.‎ There is more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people who don’t have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares. If someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.‎ ‎12. The first paragraph tells us ____.‎ A. what is the feeling of having no friends ‎ B. we always need friends around us C. making friends is a need in people’s life ‎ D. we need to be alone in our life ‎13.Which of the following places people name after their friendly people is NOT mentioned in the passage?‎ A. a town B. a room C. a school D. a library ‎14.

They care more about their friends.‎ ‎15.This passage mainly tells us _________.‎ ‎ A. that people are all friends B. that people need friends ‎ C. how to get to know friends D. how to name a place.‎ 第二节：七选五( 共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)。‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选入能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ My mother is a diligent and kind woman.
