Loneliness is not the same as being alone. A person can be just as lonely in a group of people as when home alone. Loneliness is a feeling of being unconnected with other people, or wanting to be with someone who isn’t there, or having no one to turn to who can affirm one’s essential human qualities. From time to time, loneliness afflicts nearly everyone. It is usually provoked by a lost connection with significant people in one’s life. This loneliness is usually temporary and eases off with time as one discovers that one can still enjoy life despite the loss. But chronic loneliness comes more from within individuals than it does from circumstances imposed from outside. This kind of lonely people tend to blame their loneliness on themselves, on their personality and appearance. Besides, lonely people tend not to like the people they meet and assume those people don’t like them. They also lack the skills needed to establish meaningful, caring contact with others. Other surveys showed that lonely people know and interact with other people as the non-lonely do, but the lonely tend to have unrealistic standards or expectations about the relationships that get in the way of forming close friendship. Surveys have shown the loneliest people tend to be adolescents and young adults. Contrary to popular belief, the elderly are less lonely than people in other age groups, perhaps because the elderly have more realistic expectations.
24Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the characteristic of lonely people?
1. (A) They think they are not popular.
2. (B) They have unrealistic expectations.

4. (D) They are skillful at making friends.

I tell my students that addressing people by “sir” or “ma’am” comes in handy in their interaction with others. Case in point: I was on the phone recently with the phone company discussing the inaccuracies of my bill. The lady I spoke to was not helpful and seemed annoyed. Then, in the midst of the conversation, I threw in a “yes ma’am,” and her entire attitude changed. She became far more helpful and easy to deal with, and she ended up cutting my bill in half, which was more than I had even asked for. Some of my students in Harlem were interviewed for a chance to attend a high-rated junior high school. The school only had thirty openings for the following year, and twelve of my students were among the numerous kids across the city who applied for the spots. I practiced what the interview would be like with my students, and one main thing I stressed was, “Make sure you say ‘yes, ma’am’ or ‘no, sir’ no matter what!” Weeks after the interviews, I was delighted to hear that all twelve of my students had been accepted. When I talked with the admissions director at the school, the main comment he made over and over was how polite my students were in their interviews. It seems like just such a simple thing to do, but it gets results.

1. (A) She simply changed her attitude for no good reason.

The ancient Egyptians believed in life after death. But they also believed that a person couldn’t live forever unless the dead body stayed in good condition. So Egyptians tried to preserve the bodies of the dead. These preserved bodies are called mummies. By studying mummies (and written records), today’s scientists have learned how they were made. To make a mummy, priests first opened up the dead body. Then they removed most of its organs. Organs were dried and placed in special jars. Next, the inside of the body was washed. It was also packed with linen or sawdust and sewn up. Then, the body was covered in a powder called natron. It took 40 days for this salt-like substance to dry out the body. Finally, the body was wrapped in linen bandages and put in a coffin. A few mummies were placed in pyramids. But most were buried in special tombs. The ancient Egyptians knew what they were doing. Many of the discovered mummies have been in good condition. For example, Zahi Hawass, a mummy expert, discovered the mummy of a well-known governor. It was inside a limestone coffin.
32Why did Egyptians try to preserve the bodies of the dead?
1. (A) Because Egyptians had strong family ties.
2. (B) Because Egyptians believed in life after death.
3. (C) Because Egyptians had the tradition of keeping the dead body inside their homes.
4. (D) Because Egyptians did not have places to bury the dead.
