Be Your Own Best Friend

Why would you want to become your own best friend? There are a number of benefits of creating your own support system from within rather than relying on your partner, friends or family to be there for you when you’re suffering. We all have it in us to give ourselves what we need, without seeking it from outside. 1. Here’s how to become your own best friend.

1.Be nice to yourself

The first step in becoming a friend to yourself is to treat yourself like you would treat a friend. 2. Start by accepting your good qualities, talents and abilities and begin to appreciate yourself.

2. Imagine how you would support a friend in the same situation

Think about a loved one, a friend, a family member, or someone dear to you and imagine that they are in the same situation you are facing. 3. Then consider how to best offer help and advice to them. Allow yourself to feel supported, and give yourself what you need.

Write down the words that you would say to your greatest friend and then say them gently to yourself.

3. 4.

Following the theme of considering how you would help a dear friend, you need to start taking your own advice and putting your own needs first. Do you need a day off from work? 5. Whatever it is that you need, allow yourself to put it at the top of the list rather than the bottom.

Use these methods to become your own best friend and start being there for yourself!

A. Honor your needs

B. Believe in yourself.

C. A long hot bath?

D. Help them first and then they will help you.

E. That means that you need to stop being doubtful of yourself.

F. Think about how they’re struggling, suffering with this problem.

G. Isn’t it far better to know how to support yourself in times of need?

1.G

2.E

3.F

4.A

5.C

【解析】

試題分析：做你自己最好的朋友。

1.G考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯。該句位于文章總領(lǐng)段落（第一段），根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知，該空應(yīng)填“Isn’t it far better to know how to support yourself in times of need?”——該反問(wèn)句實(shí)則說(shuō)明上文提到的我們內(nèi)部有自我支持的體系，再個(gè)確定我們可以在需要的時(shí)候自我支持，這就引出了下句“Here’s how to become your own best friend.” 即該題正確答案為G.

2.E考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯。該句在文章“Be nice to yourself”（對(duì)自己好點(diǎn)兒）部分，根據(jù)下句“開始欣賞自己”可推知，該句應(yīng)該對(duì)應(yīng)為“停止懷疑自己”，故該題正確答案為E.

3.F考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯。該句在文章“Imagine how you would support a friend in the same situation”（想象一下你將會(huì)如何支持、幫助處于相同處境的朋友）部分，該空前句為想象你的愛人、朋友、或是家人處于你現(xiàn)在的處境。該空的后句為接著考慮如何最好地給他們提供幫助和建議。那么在這已給的兩個(gè)動(dòng)作中，只能加入的就是“Think about how they’re struggling, suffering with this problem.”（想象他們的感受），故該題正確答案為F.

4.A考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯。該空為文章第三個(gè)建議部分的概括，通讀該部分，可知作者所要提出的建議為“you need to start taking your own advice and putting your own needs first.”，“Whatever it is that you need, allow yourself to put it at the top of the list rather than the bottom. ”即你要尊重你自己的需要。故該題正確答案為A.

5.C考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯。該空所在部分講述的是要尊重你自己的選擇。前句講到假設(shè)的你所需要的一種情況：你需要休假一天嗎？而后句講到無(wú)論你需要的什么，你都要把這種需要放在首要的位置。故該空應(yīng)為和前句所并列的問(wèn)句——你需要洗個(gè)熱水澡嗎？故該題正確答案為C.

Laptop computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.

Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a $10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e-mail to “speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees，anywhere at all!

Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop used in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable(可行的). As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.

At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff（教職員工）use computers. The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, “Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we’re giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”

2.Why is the word “speak” in the second paragraph in quotation marks(引號(hào))?

3.Which of the following is TRUE about Westlake College?

A. All teachers use computers.

B.1500 students have laptops.

C. It is an old college in America.

D. Students there can do everything.

4.“A window on the world” in the last paragraph means that students can ______.

A. attend lectures on information technology

B. travel around the world

C. get information from around the world
