Wonder why you can get angry so easily while your friend smiles all the time? It’s probably because you both have different personalities(個(gè)性).
Personality is also about how people think, behave, and react (反應(yīng)) to everything around them from day to day.
So what makes people think and behave in certain ways?
Part of the reason is that people are born like this. A baby gets its blood type, genes (基因) and other physical things when it’s still inside its mother. These things may help decide what the baby will be like.
But one’s personality doesn’t stop here. Family life, school learning and life experiences can also make you the person you are. This doesn’t mean it’s impossible to change your personality. You can always try to make yourself better. Don’t get too worried about your shortcomings (缺點(diǎn)). Just accept them. This is a good way to start making changes.
If you don’t know how to make friends, find out why. Is it because you’re too shy? Tell yourself to smile at people. Start talking to people using warm greetings.
Don’t give yourself a hard time about it all. It’s not easy to change lifelong habits in one night. Keep working at it. One day you’ll see that you can turn over a new leaf and be a new you!
小題1:Personality is about the following except        .
A．how you behave
B．what you look like
C．how you react to something
D．how you think about something
小題2:We know that         from the passage.
A．people are born the way they’ll always be
B．a(chǎn) person can try to change his/her personality
C．personality decides what a person looks like
D．blood type decides what a person will be like
小題3:From the last two paragraphs, we learn that         .
A．a(chǎn) shy person can’t make many friends
B．you can work hard to improve yourself
C．everyone can change him- or herself in life
D．there is no way to change your lifelong habits

小題1:B
小題2:B
小題3:C

One terribly cold day, a snowstorm hit our area. Needing firewood, I quickly set out with my best friend, Bruce, to look for a tree to cut down. Cutting down a tree in a snowstorm can be dangerous. (1) So to have a friend who could warn me of dangerso was important.
When I chose a big 23-meter-tall tree and prepared to cut it down, Bruce suddenly warned me, “Don’t cut down that tree! It’s too close to the power line!” I wasn’t sure about it. So I decided to disregard his warning. I couldn’t wait to finish the job and go back home. I began cutting down the tree. (2) When the tree fell, there was no longer any doubt whether my friend was right.
The tree caught the power line, bringing it to the ground. I considered cutting the tree off the line. After all, electricity can’t travel through wood. As I reached out my finger to touch the tree, pain ran up my arm and through my head. I had been shocked!
After I returned home and told my mother what happened, she quickly called the power company. Workers from the power company soon arrived. One of them asked if I had touched the tree, and when I told him I had, his face turned pale. “You should have been killed,” he said. It was my boots that saved my life.
(3)Within two hours, the workers removed the tree. Soon the snowstorm calmed down——but not my mother. Even though she was glad that I wasn’t hurt, my mother was still serious with me. After all（畢竟）, I shouldn’t have brushed off my friend’s warning.
小題1:將①處改成同義句。

小題2:將②處翻譯成漢語。
小題3:將③處用It takes sb. some time to do sth. 句型改為同義句。
