【解析】每個人都需要朋友,朋友間的友誼能夠促進健康并且提升自我價值。那么當你搬到一個陌生的地方,怎樣才能交到新朋友呢?在文中作者提出了有關結交新朋友和維持友誼的幾點建議。首先,要走出去和別人接觸。其次,要主動和別人談話。再次,要讓友誼慢慢發(fā)展,而不要急于求成。
【1】E根據(jù)But for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage.可知前句應該從意思上和后句構成轉折關系,縱觀選項可知E項符合語境,句意:對于某些人來說結交新朋友很容易。故選E。

【題目】Many scholarships require that you write an essay in order to be considered for the prize money. However, if you are the sort of person that has a headache whenever you have to complete a writing assignment, this may not be the best news. Luckily for you, there is no reason to fear the scholarship essay. The following tips could help you conquer this not-so-easy aspect of the scholarship application process.
You should always outline your essays. This does not just apply to the scholarship essays, either. An outline helps lend focus to your thoughts and helps you create a picture of the “whole” that the essay will become. Judges cannot stand when your writing is loose, lacks coherence (連貫性) or when you fail to connect your main points together. They want to see that you can support your argument well with clear and brief examples and that these examples do, in fact, relate to the topic at hand.
If you have a choice in the topic you get to write about, always try to select something you are personally interested in. Don’t write what you think the judges want to hear. This will only amount in an essay that reads like someone else’s, which is not a great way to make yourself stand out.
If you feel bored with the topic, then your essay will be boring as well. Make sure your idea follows a clear and a logical path. This means they are connected well and the transitions (過渡) easily flow from one idea to the next. Likewise, try to stay away from the obvious or the sad story. Yes, college will be a life-changing experience, but can you think of an interesting reason why this is so? And yes, it is terrible that you lost a family member at a young age, but what does it have to do with winning this scholarship? Judges can smell sad stories from a mile away, so only pull at the heartstrings if you have a proper reason for doing so.
【1】Why is an outline necessary for writing a scholarship essay?
A. To focus on the details of the essay. B. To think more about the scholarship.
C. To support the arguments very well. D. To make a picture of the whole essay.
【2】What does the author advise on writing a scholarship essay?
A. Selecting a topic the judges like.
B. Presenting the ideas in a logic way.
C. Adding some obvious and sad stories.
D. Telling experiences of losing someone.
【3】Who are the intended readers of the passage?
A. Essay readers. B. Judges in colleges.
C. College students. D. Company leaders.

What do the world's most successful people all have in common?
By examining the work habits of over 150 greatest writers and artists and scientists, the researchers including Stanford professor Jeffrey Pfeiffer found that high achievers like Robert Moses turned out to be all alike:
Busy! Busy!
In a study of general managers in industry, John Kotter reports that many of them work 60 to 65 hours per week—which translates into at least six 10-hour days. The ability and willingness to work difficult and tiring hours has characterized many powerful figures. Energy and strength provide many advantages to those seeking to build power.
Just Say No!
The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say “no” to almost everything. And that's what gives them the time to accomplish so much. And focus means saying “no” to a lot of distractions (分神).
Ignore your weaknesses and keep improving your strengths. Don't waste time exploring skill areas where you have little competence. Instead, focus on—and build on—your strengths. This means knowing who you are, what you are and what you are good at.
Create Good Luck!
There's a science to it. Richard Wiseman studies lucky people for his book Luck Factor, and breaks down what they do right. Certain personality types are luckier because they behave in a way that offers the chance for good opportunities. By being more outgoing, open to new ideas, following the feeling that something is true, and being optimistic, lucky people create possibilities.
Does applying these principles to your life actually work? Wiseman created a “l(fā)uck school” to test the ideas—and it was a success. In total, 80 percent of the people who attended Luck School said that their luck had increased.
A. Spend enough time to improve your weakness.
B. Achievement requires focus.
C. On average, these people reported that their luck had increased by more than 40 percent.
D. They never stop working and they never lose a minute.
E. Busy people are more likely to be lucky.
F. Know What You Are!
G. Luck isn't magical.
