Vanessa and Niki had just begun a friendship． Niki was new to the school, and Vanessa had thought she was a snob (势利的人)． That was mostly because Niki said little, and besides, that was the rumor (谣言) about her． But then, Niki left her notebook on the playground by accident, and Vanessa picked it up and returned it to her． Then the two girls started to talk, and they got to know each other． Now Vanessa knew that Niki wasn’t a snob, but she still didn’t understand why Niki wouldn’t talk to anyone．
One day, Niki explained herself, “I don’t really know anyone here except you, and I’m kind of shy． I know everybody thinks I’m a snob, but I’m not． I just don’t know what to say to people．”
Vanessa had an idea for helping Niki． “If my other friends get to know you,” she told Niki, “they’ll like you, too． So why don’t you sit with my friends and me at lunch tomorrow? Then everybody will see what you’re like．” Niki was very uncertain, but she was tired of everyone thinking she was a snob． So she agreed to have lunch with Vanessa and her friends．
The next day, Vanessa and Niki waited in the dining hall for Vanessa’s other friends． Niki was nervous, but Vanessa said, “Don’t worry． Just be yourself． You’ll be fine．” At last, everyone else arrived．
One of Vanessa’s friends took one look at Niki and asked, “Why are you sitting with the snob, Vanessa? Come on and eat with us．” Niki’s eyes filled with tears．
Vanessa took a breath and then said, “I’m sitting with Niki because she’s my friend and she’s nice． Don’t judge (判断) people before you know them． How about finding out for yourself instead of believing every rumor you hear?” For a moment, everyone looked at each other． Then, very slowly, the other girls sat down at the table． At first, nobody said much, but soon, they started talking． By the time lunch was over, Niki realized that Vanessa was right—all she had to do was to be herself． And what everyone else needed to do was to stop believing rumors．
31．Why did people think Niki was a snob at first?
A．Because she refused to share her notebook．B．Because she liked not to be noticed by others．
C．Because she spread rumors about others．D．Because she seldom spoke and others believed the rumor．

A．②→①→④→③ B．④→②→③→①

What brought you and your friends together? Was it shared hobbies or similar personalities? Besides these common reasons, genes (基因) may also play a role．
According to a US study with 1, 932 people, friends have a kinship coefficient (亲缘系数) that is 0．0014 higher than in strangers! The kinship coefficient is an easy way to see how genetically related two people are—the higher the number is, the closer the relation is．
Don’t look down on this number． The kinship coefficient between parents and children is about 0．25． For first cousins, it’s about 0．0625, while for fourth cousins, it’s around only 0．001． This means you might share more genes with your best friend than with some distant (远房的) family members．
The question is—why are people with a high level of the kinship coefficient more likely to become friends? The research team found that many of the top one percent of similar genes have something to do with the sense of smell． This means that close friends may have a similar sense of smell．
The study also showed that people who become close friends usually have similar body smells． Researchers collected sweat samples (汗液样本) from 20 pairs of friends． They all became close in a short time． Using an e-nose and human volunteers to study the smells, they found that friends’ body smells were more alike than those of strangers． So, next time you hug your friends, you might notice that they smell a bit like you!
36．What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing Paragraph 1?
A．To introduce a topic． B．To give examples．
C．To provide a solution． D．To tell a story．
37．What can we learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3?
A．Best friends have a higher kinship coefficient than first cousins．
B．The kinship coefficient between two friends is 0．001．
C．Best friends can share more genetic similarities than distant family members．
D．Genetic similarities have no relation to friendship．
38．According to the study, who are more likely to become friends?
A．People who live in the same neighborhood．
B．People who have similar body smells．
C．People who have similar looks．
D．People who enjoy different hobbies．
39．Which part of a magazine is the passage probably taken from?
