No fight can end, and no friendship can move on, until everyone says these little words: I’m sorry. Sometimes, though, they can be difficult to say. ___66___

It’s not about winning.

Friendships aren’t like the Super Bowl, and there should never be a winner and a loser. When you start fighting with a friend, it may feel important that you “win” the fight by proving you’re right and he is wrong, or by making him be the first to apologize.

 In reality, you’ll BOTH LOSE if you let your fight ruin your friendship, and you will BOTH WIN if you find a way to heal it.

___67__

You may have heard the expression “His pride stood in the way.” It is usual used to describe a person who is determined to be “right” that he lets an opportunity for happiness pass him by forever. ___68__ Remember: as time goes on, we usually forget who was right and who was wrong in a disagreement, and only remember the sadness of losing a friend.

Take the first step.

Are you sick of fighting? Do you think this fight is just not important enough to ruin your friendship?

 _69___ You don’t have to take full responsibility （責(zé)任）for starting the fight, or even say that your feelings were wrong. But you should find something you did or said that’s worth apologizing for. Maybe you’re sorry that you let the fight go for so long, or that you overreacted （反應(yīng)過度）to something your friend did. If you say you’re sorry, it’s like an invitation for your friend to do the same.___70___

A.  Then try to be the first to apologize.

B.       Stop thinking about your pride.

C.       It’s about taking some responsibility for the argument.

D.      Don’t let this happen to a friendship you care about.

E.       Here are some things to keep in mind.

F.       There are some special cases when you shouldn’t be the one to apologize first.

G.      Once you’ve both said it, you’ll both feel a million times better.

On Sunday while I was having my own Father’s Day celebration, I thought about my dad a lot. By the time I called to tell him that I loved him, he had already gone to bed. So I wrote the following to show what my dad means to me.

About 28 years ago, my dad was a used car salesman. Every Thursday night, he would head off to Shreveport, LA for the auction（拍賣會(huì)）. Most of the time, I drove a car over there for him so he could sell it there.

One day, I was riding with my dad to Shreveport for the auction when he found a hitchhiker（搭車者）with a backpack. As soon as dad saw him, he pulled the car over and offered him a ride. Dad asked him his name and continued to talk to him about all sorts of things. I can’t recall why but he told dad a lot of terrible things that had occurred to him. I sat in the back seat and watched the scene with amazement. I could see that the hitchhiker changed his attitude as he could tell someone who was really listening to him.

We drove another forty-five minutes before we had to exit the interstate（州際公路）. We pulled over and dad told him to keep his head up and things would start looking up for him soon. He reached into his pocket and handed the hitchhiker a twenty-dollar bill and then a the-dollar bill.

We drove on and my dad did not say a single thing. I was still completely amazed by what I just witnessed. I was always told everyone to never pick up a hitchhiker and yet my dad did it every single time he saw one. I’m sure that it made that poor man’s day, probably a month to follow.

While reflecting upon that story, I learned a lot about my dad and life. I learned that if you come from a place of service or compassion, you can change people’s lives. Just one single kind act can change someone’s life. It never occurred to my dad about not stopping to help him.

This is the type of person my dad is. Thank you for setting such high standards for me to follow.

Dad, I love you. Happy Father’s Day!

People who like their traveling have their reasons. They believe that traveling can help them expand their field of view, especially in the geographical and historical sense. They also think that touring will give them more chances to enjoy different kinds of food and experience new things that would never be brought by other activities. But those who dislike traveling also have some reasons.

   Traveling, in my opinion, dose more good than harm. Most importantly, it broadened our mind. We can get in touch with other civilization （文明）, culture, customs and ideas.

Through history, most people traveled because of necessity —not for pleasure. People traveled just in order to remain alive. They searched for food to eat or places to live in. They sometimes ran away from enemies. This is not to say that no one ever traveled just for the fun of it. In ancient times, for example, rich Romans traveled all the way to Greece to take part in the Olympic Games, and festivals. Of course, some people decided to travel just out of curiosity. They wanted to find out what it looked like beyond the horizon （地平線）. Also business travel has been going on for centuries. Traders could not only make money but also learn to speak several languages and be introduced to different cultures.

So, traveling does enrich our mind and draw new ideas to us. There is no doubt that we can get much from it.

59. How many reasons for traveling are mentioned in Paragraph 3?

A. Three            B. Four     C. Five         D. Six

60. In the writer’s opinion, traveling can be _______.

A. expensive           B. funny       C. helpful       D. tiring

61. What’s the main idea of this passage?

A. Different kinds of traveling.

B. Traveling enriches our mind.

C. Ways to enjoy yourself while traveling.

D. The advantages and disadvantages of traveling.

It’s often true that jobs for students sometimes lead to employment after graduation, so it’s a good idea to think carefully before you begin working during your college years.

During my entire college life I worked as a bartender （酒吧招待）. I have to say that I really enjoyed that job, and was fond of the idea of making money without doing too much work. I also had the opportunity to socialize （ 交際） while working. I came to be known among the upper class, and gradually became popular on campus because of my job. However, working as a bartender can have the negative side that people tend to think that you enjoy drinking.

All in all, I wish I had thought more carefully before deciding to take that job. I got a Bachelor’s degree （學(xué)士學(xué)位）in English, qualifying（使···有資格） me to work as a writer, but so far I have only been able to use the skills I learned from that part-time job.

It would be different if I had searched for jobs related to writing or editing（編輯） instead of bartending. It’s commonly accepted that employment for students is only temporary （臨時(shí)的），but we should never forget that it can connect to the work we get after we graduate. After all, employers not only look at the degree, but also your previous experience.

So before getting a part-time job while you’re at school, consider what you want to do for the rest of your life.

56. Which of the following is a benefit（好處）of working as a bartender for the author?

A. He had a good time after school.                      

B. He made connect with many people.

C. He satisfied his curiosity about others.

D. He had learned how to make wine.

57. The underline word “negative” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “ _______”.  

A. bad       B. same       C. wrong       D. bright

58. The author writes the text mainly to _______.  

A. describe his part-time job during his college life

B. tell students to be careful with their part-time jobs

C. convince（使確信）students that bartender is the part-time job          

D. advise students to look for their future jobs in the college
