They make our lives more pleasant and give us a sense of who we are, both as an individual and as a member of the community. Heres how to develop your relationships with these very important people in your life.Start a conversation. Often neighbors dont even know each others names. However, most neighbors enjoy making small talk with each other in their community. You can ask how their kids are or what they think of the prices at the supermarket. But the best way to break the ice is to smile, wave, and say hello to your neighbors. Be friendly to the newcomers. Your new neighbors may be feeling lonely, especially if theyre far from home, and might expect a friendly face. If they have kids, tell them where the children play in the neighborhood. Introduce the best places to eat and shop. Invite them over for coffee or tea, give them your phone number, and point to your house as you say goodbye.Develop better relationships. Return anything that you borrow from a neighbor, such as tools, in good repair and as soon as youve finished with them. Make sure that your car is not blocking their doorway. Such small actions will help you build up a good relationship with your neighbors.Make time for your friendship. If you value a friendship with your neighbors, spend time with them. Why not invite them to a barbecue or weekend party? You can write a card to invite them to your party. Then, you can make a call to them ahead. In this way, you will know what your neighbors like. You can plan for proper food and music.Care about the details. In a good relationship, its really the little things that count. When your neighbors carry a lot of things, you can give them a hand. Help to bring in the mail for the elderly neighbor when it rains. If you care about them, they will give you a surprise, too. The respect for your neighbors feelings can develop your relationship with them.1.Are good neighbors important people in your life? 2.What is the best way to break the ice when you meet your neighbors? 3.

B 2019石景山一模World Kindness Day is a celebration which takes place on 13 November each year. It was introduced in 1998 by the World Kindness Movement. It is celebrated in many countries, including Canada, Japan, Australia and some other countries. World Kindness Day is celebrated to highlight acts of kindness passing on the positive(正面的) power.Why be kind? Few people would disagree with the idea that a kind action is good for the soul(灵魂). It is a win-win situation because it leads to a sense of well-being both for the receiver of this kind action, as well as for the person who does the action. As a simple example, lets imagine you have a workmate who always does a very good job. How about taking a moment to mention this to them, just in conversation or perhaps by email? The effects of this will probably be quite clear: your workmate will be happy to receive some praise and, in addition, you will probably feel good about yourself for having spread a little joy. Many organisations try to encourage people to be kind, wherever and whenever they can. Perhaps the strongest supporters of this idea are the Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) Foundation. The RAK website suggests some ways to show kindness. Generally, these fall into three categories. The first is interpersonal kindness. Some examples are giving old clothes to charity(慈善机构) or writing a good comment about a restaurant that you like. The second is environmental kindness, which could mean simply recycling or organising a group event to clean a local park or beach. The third category is less obvious: personal kindness, which means treating yourself kindly. Some examples are taking a walk in nature or setting yourself an objective to complain less. The logic is that by being kind to yourself, you will surely be kinder to the world around you.Most experts on kindness agree that it has a sort of ripple effect. This means that one kind action is more likely to lead to more and more. So dont wait for kindness to find you today, go and start a new ripple!1.When is World Kindness Day? 2.Why is World Kindness Day celebrated? 3.Why should people be kind? 4.According to RAK, what does “personal kindness” mean? 5.What does the passage mainly tell us? C 2019门头沟二模The Angel of the NorthThe Angel of the North is a modern sculpture (雕塑) in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, England, designed by Antony Gormley. Completed in 1998, it is a steel sculpture of an angel, 20 metres tall,with wings measuring 54 metres across. The angel, like much of Gormleys other work, is based on the shape of his own body.According to the artist himself, the Angel of the North symbolises(象征着) the change from the industrial to the information age and stands proudly as a beacon (灯塔) of hope for the future of the region.It cost 800,000 to make, with the money coming from the British government. It took four years to make the sculpture. It was made in three parts, the body, which weighed 100 tons, and two wings, which weighed 50 tons each. Angels are usually thought of being white, as they represent light, but Gormleys Angel of the North is a reddish brown colour. This is because the steel has a special paint to protect it from strong wind.The parts of the angel were moved from Hartlepool to Gateshead at night in big trucks. It took 5 hours to move everything, even though the journey is very short. The Angel of the North was put on the hill in Birtley on the 15th of February, 1998.The sculpture was made in memory of the coal miners who worked hard in the dark earth below the hill to bring wealth to the North East in the 19th and 20th centuries.
