Hi everybody,
My name's Amira and this is my personal web page (网页). I decided to make a web page because I want to make friends with people from other parts of the world and find out how they live .
I'm studying IT at university right now. I've got one more year to do, but I started to work part-time as a programmer for a company (公 司) three months ago, so I don't know if I can finish my studies in one year. My teachers keep asking me to work less and concentrate (集 中 注 意 力) more on my studies, but so far I've refused to stop working . The truth is, the money helps to pay for my studies .
In my free time, I watch films a lot . It's my favorite activity. Sometimes I go climbing with my friends, but I think it's too tiring . I can't stand doing housework, but who can?
If you want to be my friend, you can write to me in English, French, German or Arabic (my mother's Algerian). I like to write in French best because it's the easiest for me, but above all, I enjoy communicating with people, so it's up to you!
( )41. Amira made a web page to ________.
A. make money B. make friends C. share her stories D. finish her schoolwork

A. work at the university
B. stop working as a programmer
C. spend more time on her studies
D. finish her studies in three months
( )43. Which language does Amira think is the easiest for her?
A. English. B. French. C. German. D. Arabic.
C
Seventh grade has been a very big year for me. I can't believe how much I've grown. None of the trousers I had at the beginning of the year fit (合身) anymore. Mom always takes me clothes shopping on Saturday morning. She keeps trying to ask me to buy skirts, but I like trousers more.
Another big change is my confidence (自 信 心). At the beginning of the year, I was afraid to talk to anyone. My middle school has students from three different primary schools, so there are lots of new students. My old friends are in different schools from me, so I have to make new ones. It was pretty scary at first. One of the things that helped me is the French classes I take every Wednesday and Friday afternoon. My teacher taught me lots of things about communicating with others. Now, I don't feel scared when I have to talk to someone new.
Mrs. Dunford, my English teacher, is the other teacher who has helped me a lot. At first, I was scared of her because she called the mom of a troublemaker kid on the first day of school. Then I realized that she did that because she wanted the rest of us to be able to learn. Mrs. Dunford helped me realize I was good at writing. With her help, my article was published (刊登) in the school newspaper!
Now I'm wondering what I'll be like in another year.
( )44. When it comes to clothes shopping, the writer likes to ________.
A. go on Sunday B. go with her friends
C. let her mom decide for her D. buy trousers more than skirts
( )45. The underlined word“It”in Paragraph 2 refers to“________”.
A. communicating with teachers B. going to middle school
C. making new friends D. growing fast
( )46. What did the writer think of Mrs. Dunford on the first day of school?
A. Strict. B. Careless. C. Kind. D. Helpful.
D
A smile (微笑) is one of the most common human expressions (表情). It's also one of the simplest. It makes us happier right away (try it now!) and it can change the way others around us feel.
We usually smile around 26 times a day. However, almost half of those smiles are fake (假的). We're smiling to be polite (有礼貌的) or because we don't want others to know how we're really feeling — which might be unhappy.
Go into a large shop, find a shop worker and you'll see a fake smile soon. Although many people believe smiling is an important part of customer service (客户服务), it seems it is not positive(积极的） for the person who is smiling. A report says fake smiles make workers feel less happy at work. When shop workers, for example, are asked to smile at customers（顾客） , the workers' feelings get worse during the day. As a result, they do less work than those workers who only smile when they really feel like it.
What's more, your customers may not want to see your fake smiles. The US company, Walmart, opened nearly 100 shops in Germany（德国） some years ago. However, within eight years Walmart stopped doing business (生意) in the country. One of the reasons for their failure was customer service. In Walmart, workers were asked to smile at customers. However, Germans weren't used to this and they felt uncomfortable in the shops.
( )47. We know the reasons why people give fake smiles from Paragraph _________.
A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 4
( )48. German customers might think the smiles of the Walmart workers were ________.
A. strange B. small C. warm D. quick
( )49.Which of the following is TRUE about Walmart?
A. It had a good business for eight years.
B. Its workers in Germany didn't smile often.
C. Its customer service was the worst in Germany.
D. It opened about 100 shops in Germany years ago.
( )50. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Fake smiles can bring people close.
B. Fake smiles can be bad for business.
C. Fake smiles are necessary sometimes.
D. Fake smiles are good for people's health
