Dear Sir or Madam，

Last Thursday， I traveled on the 8：00 a.m. train from Glasgow to London King’s Cross and I was quite angry with the service of your company.

The train didn’t come on time and it was forty minutes late when it left Glasgow. A man at the station said sorry to us， but he didn’t give us any reasons for the delay(誤點) . We then had further delays on the way and had to wait another thirty minutes. As a result， I missed my plane from London to Frankfurt and had to wait for several hours.

What’s more， the service on the train was also very poor， The trip took more than five hours. Unluckily， we could buy nothing but some soft drinks on the train. Worst of all， something was wrong with the air conditioning ( 空調(diào)系統(tǒng)) and it got hotter and hotter in the train. Before we reached King’s Cross， the temperature was over 40°C.

Because of your poor service， I feel you should pay me compensation(賠償).

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully

David Roberson

“No man is an island” is a well-known line from John Donne’s Devotion， written more than three hundred years ago. Even now people still agree with him. No one can live a completely isolated life. Without other people， life became empty and sad. We all need friends.

For some of us， though making friends is not difficult， feeling shy， we may not want to make the first move. It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.

There are many books about friendship， but Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence (影響) People， written in 1936， is the most famous. This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best-seller. It was later put into 28 languages.

Dale Carnegie’s advice (勸告) seems to be simple， but can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book.

1. Be friendly and polite.

Always greet with a smile. Begin with “excuse me” or “would you please”， when you want to ask somebody. Remember to say “thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.

2. Go out of your way to be nice.

Find some time to do special things for other people. Making some soup for a sick neighbour may seem like a little thing to you， but it will make your neighbour feel a lot better.

3. Remember names.

They say that the sweetest music to a person’s ears is the sound of his or her own name.

4. Be open-minded.

Try to understand other people’s ways and ideas and learn something from them.

5. Listen patiently.

When someone is talking to you， look at him or her， listen carefully and say something when necessary.

1.The underlined sentence “No one can live a completely isolated life” means “______” in this passage.

A. No one can live a hard life

B. No one can live without difficulty

C. No one can live alone

D. No one can live on an island

A. we are afraid to make bad friends

B. we are too shy to take the first action

C. we feel worried that we won’t be able to keep our friends

D. we feel sure that we already have enough friends

3.We can learn from this passage that ________.

A. John Donne learned something from Dale Carnegie

B. friends are always friends

C. few people bought Carnegie’s book

D. the writer of this passage agrees with John Donne and Dale Carnegie

4. Which of the following is NOT mentioned (提及) in Carnegie’s book?

The Internet has become not only a necessary but also a virtual(虛擬的) world for people. With

the development of the Internet， internet friendship has also become very popular. Online friends are those people who have known each other through the Internet. Making internet friends is the same as making pen friends. Many famous websites offer quite warm internet friendship. One can find many people on these websites and they share the same interests. It is difficult to make friends with someone you can’t see or feel. That is the main problem of internet friendship. A virtual friendship would not last forever without seeing each other， but it is an advantage for some people because they are afraid to speak in pubic.

On the other hand， the chances of cheating(欺騙) are very high in an internet friendship. Some people make friends on the Internet with wrong intentions(企圖).So while making friends over the Internet， one has to be very careful. Here are some suggestions for you.

·Don’t give personal information， such as your telephone number， address， location， school name as well as your parents’ information， to strangers on the Internet.

·Do not exchange personal photos of you or any family member with people you meet over the Internet.

·Do not go to meet a person you have just met over the Internet. You’d better ask older or other experienced people for advice if you want to go to meet an internet friend.

·Do not accept someone’s request(要求) if you feel he or she is dishonest.
