As I look back on my lifetime, I see the friends, neighbors, teachers and coaches who have meant so much to my development．I praise and admire each of these, but none could compare to the lessons I learned from my parents．The reason why they meant so much to me is that they carried out the lessons with care, kindness and love．I always knew that I was truly loved．They showed me their own footprint in this world and challenged me to pass the achievements they had achieved．
They taught mc to show compassionate caring to all I meet in life．One of the hardest lessons I had to learn is that life isn't all about mc．I need to make the most of the opportunities presented to make a difference to those I meet on life's pathway, When I stop, take the time to be still, and listen to my heart and spirit, I'm aware of my purpose in being here．It's not about my home, but do I care for the homeless? It's not about a beautiful lawn, but do I play ball with the kids and grandkids? It's not about how I take care of my body, but do I care for those in the nursing homes?
Be strong． Forgive those who have hurt you．Be brave and live for others． Don't wait for things to get better someday．Do something about it today, Use your talents to make the footprint in your life．

The pinyon（矮松）is one of the most important tree species in the American West, providing food and shelter for hundreds of wildlife species including songbirds, squirrels and rabbits．Pinyon seeds are often used to make sweets．But a new research suggests that man-made noise may threaten the future of the pinyon．
Jays（灌丛鸦） are important spreaders of pinyon seeds．Each fall, a single bird picks up thousands of seeds and then hides them in various places．Throughout the winter, when other food becomes short, the birds feast on hidden seeds．But some seeds never get recovered．Instead, they come out and form the next generation of trees．
The researchers conducted their study in a woodland of New Mexico．They spread 20 seeds under each of 12 pinyons - six in quiet spots and six in loud areas．Every day for three days, the team came back to each tree to see how many seeds had been eaten and to replenish（补充） some．They found quieter areas of the woodland were more likely to have jays and four times more with pinyon seedlings than loud regions．Meanwhile, the mice that lived in the louder environments ate more seeds there, destroying them in the digestive process．The results suggest noise might influence the ability of pinyons to survive from generation to generation．
The influence of the noise could be felt for many years to come since pinyons live for decades．Fewer seedlings in noisy areas might eventually mean fewer mature trees, because the trees are so slow-growing． Meanwhile, a lower thickness of pinyons would mean less critical（挑剔的） habitat for the hundreds of species that depend on them for survival．
47．Jays are important to the pinyon for the reason that ．
A．they don't feed on the pinyon seeds B．they prevent the seeds being eaten
C．their wastes can make the land rich D．they are actually tree planters in a way
48．What animals might not be threatened by noise according to the passage?
A．Squirrels． B．Mice． C．Jays． D．Rabbits．
49．The research in the passage shows ．
A．mice prefer to live in a loud environment B．quiet places are good for pinyons to grow
C．Jays hide pinyon seeds in quiet places D．noisy places arc good for pinyons to grow
50．What can be the best title for the passage?
A．The Effect of Noise on Pinyon B．A Useful Plant, the Pinyon
C．Mice, Enemy of the Pinyon D． Jays, Enemy of the Pinyon

People often say you never get a second chance to make a first impression, and that's actually quite true 51 ．After all, making a good first impression is all about making others feel good when spending time with them．The following tips will help you make a positive impression every time．
●Dress appropriately
52 ．That means dressing up or putting on nice, clean, situation-appropriate clothes for social situations．It isn't difficult and it doesn't have to cost you much, either．
●Be aware of your body language
Words express very little of what you say．Body language can tell someone a lot about your mood and confidence level． 53 Eye contact is an easy way to make others feel comfortable, important and special．Nervous body language can make others uncomfortable and anxious．Try to be aware of your body language when communicating with others．
●Respect the opinions of others
Not everyone will have the same opinion with you, and friendly disagreements can be a gateway to a great conversation．Respect other people's right to have their own opinion．Respect the opinions of others even if you disagree with them． 54 ．
● 55 ．
People love talking about themselves, but generally, you want to be careful of taking over the conversation．By listening carefully to what others are saying, you are not only making them feel important, but you can gather cues you need to keep the conversation going and bridge to new topics．

B．Show an interest in every person you meet
C．Smile especially when first meeting someone
D．Make sure you look nice whenever you meet someone new
