Answer the questions according to the following passage.
Who help you most in your everyday life, families, charities, or friends? Don’t forget about your neighbors! Neighbors help you more than anyone else in your daily life. So it is important to have good neighbors.
What does it take to be a good neighbor? Here is some advice on how to be a good neighbor. Good fences(栅栏) make good neighbors. (1) One of the most important things in being a good neighbor is to respect(尊重) a person’s privacy(隐私). If you go rushing over as soon as new neighbors move in, they may think you are going to come over at all hours of the day, not respecting their privacy.
It is always a good idea to be friendly to everyone in the neighborhood. This can not only put you on good term(关系和睦) with them, but will also be a kind of protection for your family and home. If you wave as they drive by or offer a friendly hello while they are out to work, they will think you respect them. If you are friendly to them, they are much more likely to watch out for anything wrong going on around your home while you are out and let you know if anything happens.
Another way of being a good neighbor is to be helpful in their hour of need. If you see that your neighbors are in need of a helping hand, it is good to offer your help. They will do the same if you are in trouble.
In a word, if you respect a person’s privacy, treat them kindly and be helpful when you see they are__(2)_____, you will be a great neighbor and anyone would be happy to have you next door!

Can you remember a world before the Internet? If your answer is “No”, then you are probably a millennial. Millennials are the new generation of young Americans. They were born between 1982 and 1992. There are 33 million of them, and they are just starting to enter the workforce(劳动力). Many experts believe that millennials are different from young Americans of past generations. They also believe that millennials will change the workforce in important ways.
How are millennials different? They are the first generation born in the computer age. The Internet has always been a part of their lives. They spend about 16 hours a week on the Internet, and this doesn’t include e-mail. And they spend 72 hours a week using other electronic media, including mobile phones and video games. They are “ nation speakers” of the language of the computer age. People who were born earlier will never be native speakers of that language. Why not? They did not grow up “ speaking” it.
How will millennials change the workforce? To answer that question, it is important to understand how millennials use the Internet. They use the Internet to communicate. They visit websites such as Face Book and My Space every day. They share ideas, music, information, games and friendships with people all over the world. When they start working, they will want to share their work and ideas with others.
It is also important to understand the way millennials grew up. Their parents and teachers gave them a lot of attention. They taught them that their opinions were valuable(有价值的). As a result, many millennials are very confident. At work, they will expect their co-workers and bosses to listen to their opinions.
Millennials also grew up with a lot of structures in their lives. Many of them went to school from the age of two or three and played on sports teams. At work, they will expect the rules to be clear. They will also expect a strong but fair boss, like a coach on a sports team.. They will follow the person in charge(主管) if he or she is fair. But they will not follow an unfair boss. They will also expect their work to be fun and creative, similar to their experience on a sports team.
These are a few of the changes that experts believe millennials will bring to the American workforce. But the world is changing very fast. There will probably be more changes that are difficult to imagine today.
