Question

8．Dear Emma，
    Your problem is like a circle．The harder you study，the less time you have to make friends and the less friendly you look to your classmates．The fewer friends you have，the harder you study to make yourself feel better．
    Try to break this bad circle．Perhaps you are afraid of meeting new people，because you are too shy or too serious．You are not．Everyone has a fun side to his character．Posh your shy side away and show your classmates how much fun you can be．
    Look at your classmates．Are there any people with whom you feel you have a lot in common？
    First，smile at your classmates．Do this as often as you can，until your classmates become used to your smiles and smile in return．
    Next，talk to your classmates．Do this between classes or during your lunch break．You may find it easier to start by talking to people when they are alone．
    Perhaps you could ask a classmate about your studies．They are likely to respond （回應） in a very positive way．People like to feel important and helpful．
There must be someone else in your class who is also quiet．It might be easier to try to talk with him or her．Your problem is mainly about confidence．Smile first，talk next and slowly you will make friends．Once you have more confidence，you can make as many friends as you want．

分析 本文屬于日常生活類閱讀，主要是以一封信的形式來教艾瑪如何交到朋友．
親愛的艾瑪：
    你的問題像是一個圈子．你學習越努力，你就越少有時間交朋友，你的朋友越少，你就看起來越不友好，你就學習越努力來讓自己感覺更好．試圖打破這一惡性循環(huán)．也許你是怕遇見新的人，因為你太害羞或太嚴肅．你不是．每個人的性格都有有趣的一面．把你害羞的一面收起來給你的同學展現(xiàn)你多么有趣．看看你的同學，你覺得對有些人你們有很多共同之處嗎？首先，對你的同學們微笑，盡你所能做到這一點，直到你的同學習慣了你的微笑并以微笑回報．下一步，和你的同班同學交談，在課間休息時做這件事，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)當和他們一個人單獨交談時，會很容易．也許你可以問一個關(guān)于你專業(yè)的同學．他們很可能以一個非常積極的方式回應你．人們喜歡讓自己覺得重要和有用．你班上一定還有其他人也很安靜，試著跟他們交談可能會更容易．你的問題主要是不自信．首先微笑，慢慢地去交談，你會交朋友．一旦你有了更多的信心，你可以交到更多的朋友．

解答 51．答案D 推測題 由文中 The harder you study，the less time you have to make friends and the less friendly you look to your classmates．The fewer friends you have，the harder you study to make yourself feel better．可知 你學習越努力，你就越少時間交朋友，你的朋友越少，你就看起來越不友好，你學習越努力來讓自己感覺更好，所以一切根源就是"所有的時間都用在學習上"，故選D
52．答案A 細節(jié)理解題 由文中 There must be someone else in your class who is also quiet．It might be easier to try to talk with him or her可知，你班上一定還有其他人也很安靜，試著跟他們交談可能會更容易相處，故選A
53．答案B 推測題 由文中 Smile first，talk next and slowly you will make friends．Once you have more confidence，you can make as many friends as you want．可知，首先微笑，慢慢地去交談，你會交朋友．一旦你有了更多的信心，你可以交到更多的朋友，全文都是在教她怎么交朋友的，故選B．
