Unit4 Friends Forever 阅读完形训练 - 2024-2025学年高一英语专项提高训练必刷好题 （外研版2019必修第一册） 一、阅读理解 Passage1. I can still remember the first day when I met my best friend. She had just moved to the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to meet me. I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother, scared of looking at each other. Soon, we lost the shyness and started playing with each other, riding bikes to each other’s house and having sleepovers. In 7th grade she was going through family problems. However, every summer we would sit at each other’s house, watch movies on TV and talk about all the boys we liked. It was last year that I noticed the problem. She suffered from clinical depression (临床抑郁症), and had to go to a hospital during the day. I was very sorry for her at first. But with the late night calls and meeting each other halfway up the street at midnight, we still stayed in touch. I wanted to be there for her since her new best friend left her, and I knew I still cared about her like a sister. Yesterday she came to me and said, “I never knew what a best friend was until you were the only person that would stop me from cutting myself and that ever made me feel better about myself and my problems. You didn’t know this but I was trying to kill myself that very night you called me and I was crying. I owe you so much, and you didn’t even know you were helping me. ” We both cried. And I guess a kind of lesson from my life so far is to never give up your friends. Even if they aren’t as cool as others, or people think they are crazy, they need someone there. If you leave them, you will only be very sorry. So if your friends need you, and you care about them, you should be always there for them. 1．Why did the two girls hide behind their family members when they first met? A．Because they were playing a game. B．Because they didn’t like each other. C．Because they quarreled before. D．Because they were both shy. 2．What’s the problem of my best friend?

C．Never owe your friends too much. D．Try to be as cool as others. Passage2. My roommate Lily was well organised, while I was not. Each of her things had its place, but mine were always hidden somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签于) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Lily got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other. War broke out one evening. Lily came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming. “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder. The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Lily answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy (同情) rose up in my heart. Slowly. I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so lost in my work that I even didn’t notice Lily had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression a kind of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.” Lily and I stayed roommates for the rest of the college years. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together, giving in, cleaning up and holding on. 1．How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed? A．By analyzing causes. B．By giving some examples.

B．Because she hated herself for being so messy. C．Because Lily required her to do so. D．Because she was scared by Lily’s anger. 4．What might be the best title for the passage? A．Hard Work Pays Off B．Learning to Be Roommates C．My Friend Lily D．How to Be Organised? Passage3. If you’re new to a school or you are shy or tend to not get out of your comfort zone (舒适区), making new friends at school might seem like a challenge. Luckily, you can overcome that challenge by looking for people with the same interests as you and by being friendly when you meet new people. Also, participate in after-school clubs and events whenever you get the chance, since that will help you meet people outside of class! Look for people who have the same hobbies as you. You’re more likely to be friends with someone if you have something in common with them. Try to find clubs or groups based on(基于……) your favorite hobbies, then join them to meet like-minded (志趣相投的) people. Also, pay attention to people who spend their free time doing the same things you love to do. If you’re a passionate (充满激情的) reader, join a book club, go to public readings, or start a conversation with someone who carries novels around with their textbooks. Spend time around people who show kindness. Finding someone who will treat you well and support you is more important than popularity. Avoid spending time with people who talk bad about others or put them down. Instead, look for people who invite others to sit with them at lunch, who encourage others when they speak up in class, or who are always willing to help when someone needs a hand.     Introduce yourself to new people whenever possible. When you’re around someone you don’t know, it is not unusual to just sit there quietly, especially if you’re shy. However, you and the other person will both be more comfortable after a simple introduction. Make eye contact with the person, smile, and try to seem warm and relaxed instead of nervous or anxious. Then, break the ice by talking about whatever is going on around you. Keep the conversation going with open-ended questions (开放式问题). When you start talking to someone, try asking them questions about what they like to see what you have in common with them. However, avoid simply asking yes or no questions, since one-word answers don’t necessarily keep a conversation alive. You can ask questions about whatever you’re already talking about, or you can change the subject if you feel that ran its course. 1．Who is the passage intended for? A．Teachers. B．Students. C．Parents. D．Adults. 2．If you are fond of reading, you can ________. A．join a club to make friends B．approach people with lots of hobbies C．spend your free time meeting different people D．talk to people with the same interests 3．According to Paragraph 4, who is more likely to be a good friend? A．One who enjoys the popularity. B．One who talks bad about others. C．One who wants to help you. D．One who always put others down. 4．According to Paragraph 5, what should you do first when you meet someone you don’t know well? A．Start with a warm handshake. B．Make eye contact with the person. C．Start with a brief introduction of yourself. D．Start by talking about a serious topic. Passage4. I remember when I was growing up, my mom always said, “Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others.” It’s so true. Friends allow us to enjoy the taste of our success and our joy and comfort us in our challenging moments. They provide a mirror for us to learn more about ourselves. I have always thought of friends as the family members. They enrich our lives. As Robert Louis Steven once said, “A friend is a present which you give yourself.” To be a good friend, it’s very important to be a good listener. Hear what your friend says first rather than reach conclusions (结论) quickly. Sometimes it is useful to repeat their words back to them. It can help them to realize whether their words were what they wanted to say. Patience is also important in being a good friend. You know the old golden rule — Care for others in the way you would like them to care for you. The support of a friend during a difficult time could make a difference between success and failure. Encouragement is the best gift that can change a person’s life. Politeness and kindness are also very necessary, especially when you make new friends. If you want to offer your friends some suggestions, describe and explain them politely. Remember to keep smiling on your face. We should choose our friends carefully, because they can have a huge influence on our life. As someone told me, “Your friends are like the button on a lift. Sometimes they will take you up; sometimes they will take you down.” 1．In fact, the mother’s words mean that ______. A．a friend’s present can make us richer B．we should be patient with our friends C．sharing with friends can give us happiness D．we can only have fun when being with friends 2．When we make new friends, we should always ______. A．give them suggestions B．repeat their words back to them C．give them encouragement D．be polite and kind to them 3．The underlined word “button” means ______ in Chinese. A．按钮 B．信号 C．品牌 D．便签 4．The passage mainly tells us ______. A．how to influence a friend B．how to be a good friend C．how to lead a friend to success D．how to make friends rich Passage5. Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous (慷慨的); be understanding. Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly. Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better. Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with each other. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s shoes so that you can understand the problem better. No two friendships are exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding. 1．Some friendships don’t last long because _______. A．there are too many people who want to make friends B．some people receive friendship but don’t give friendship back C．those who give others friendship receive friendship from others D．they don’t know friendship is something serious 2．According to the passage, honesty is _______. A．something countable B．the base of friendship C．as important as money D．more important than anything else 3．The best title of this passage is _______. A．Honesty Is the Best Policy B．A Friend in Need Is a Friend indeed C．How to Be Friends D．Three Important Points in Life 4．According to the author, which of the following is true? A．Learning to be a good friend means learning to be kind to your friends. B．If you tell a lie and your friend finds out, he or she will never trust you again. C．You should treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you if you want a true friendship. D．Generosity means sharing everything with your friends, which helps a friendship grow. Passage6. In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? In my opinion, understanding is the most important quality in choosing a good friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener. At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me. Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me. There is a fourth quality that makes friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experiences and learn from each other. A good friend has a sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me. When I meet someone that is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I’ve found a good friend. 1．If you have fair-weather friends, ______. A．you will be refused when you get into trouble. B．they will give you all that they have when you need help C．you will become rich D．you can be sure that you get real friends 2．Good friends need to ______. A．have money or luck B．understand each other’s feeling C．be helped with money D．always point out each other’s mistakes 3．The passage is mainly about ______. A．how to get along with friends B．where to choose friends C．the qualities of friends D．the importance of having a friend Passage7. A few years ago, it seemed like Taylor Swift never went anywhere without a large group of friends. No matter what event she attended, a list squad (小队) — which included famous people like Selena Gomez, Zen d and God Ha did — would be right by her side. But now Swift wants fans to know that her friendships weren’t as perfect as she tried to make people believe. In fact, she says she was using her friend group to hide her insecurity (不安全) of feeling “uncool” and “unpopular”. Swift says she went out of her way to show off her squad because she didn’t have many friends when she was younger — a memory that still bothered her years later. “Never being popular as a kid was always an insecurity for me,” she says. When she became famous, Swift became obsessed (沉迷) with showing off her popularity. “In my twenties, I found myself surrounded by girls who wanted to be my friends,” Swift explains. “So I celebrated my newfound acceptance into a sisterhood.” But by constantly putting her friends on display, Swift failed to consider how bad her fans might feel about themselves because they didn’t have a squad like hers. “I didn’t realize that other people might still feel the way I did when I felt so alone,” she says. As she became older and more confident in herself, Swift started focusing on the quality of her friends, not the quantity (数量). She says she finally understands that the size of her group doesn’t mean how “cool” she is. To her, it’s much more important to have a few friends who can be trusted rather than a large group of “fair-weather” friends. While Swift still values her friends she has in her life, she no longer feels the pressure to show off them for the sake of impressing others. “For too long, the opinions of strangers affected how I viewed things. But now I learn not to let outside opinions affect my own life choices.” 1．What made Swift know old list squad? A．The popularity of her friends. B．Her childhood experience. C．The support of her fans. D．Her strong social influence. 2．What does paragraph 4 intend to tell us? A．We should make real friends. B．It is important to trust our friends. C．Our friends can affect our behavior. D．There are many ways of making friends. 3．What does the underlined word “sake” probably mean in the last paragraph? A．Request. B．Advice. C．Method. D．Purpose. 4．From which is the text probably taken? A．A scientific report. B．A social newspaper. C．A travel magazine. D．A movie poster. Passage8. Sometimes I began to imagine: what if I were neighbors with all of my friends? The more I’ve thought about it, the more I believe: we should all live close to our friends. For the past century, the nuclear family, only including parents and children, has defined U.S. homes. But Americans lived with friends and extended family long before the nuclear family became common. Even now, this mode of living exists somewhere; think of college campuses, which tend to be the kind of walkable communities where you’re regularly running into pals on the street. While moving closer to friends would likely require a lot of efforts, doing so could actually be really good for you. Having supportive friends is connected with greater day-to-day happiness. Researchers have found that happiness spreads easily, especially among those who live close together. Friends living within a mile of each other are 25 percent more likely to feel happy, and their friends have a 10 percent chance of feeling happier too. Live around people who make you happy, and you might create a happiness circle that cheers up everyone around you. Having a pal around is also just practical. For people with kids, a friend in the neighborhood might be able to help with child care in times of need, saving you the cost of a last-minute babysitter. Those without children might welcome the chance to bond with friends’ kids. And for people who live alone, living closer to friends can make savings on some things easier. You might share household items you don’t need every day, for example. Whatever the reason, having more people you trust around will make it easier for you to get through difficult times. Many people are prepared to move for a new job, to be with a romantic partner, or even just for an adventure. Moving to be closer to friends should be no different. Friends are important to a good life. So why not shorten the distance between you and them? 1．Which was popular in the US before the nuclear family became common? A．The one-parent family. B．The extended family only. C．The college campus community. D．The family group with relatives and friends. 2．What do the percentages in Para. 3 show about living closer to friends? A．It spreads happiness among friends easily. B．It benefits one’s physical and mental health. C．It improves one’s awareness of family building. D．It increases one’s chances of making more new friends. 3．What is the practical advantage of living near friends? A．Greater personal growth. B．Lower living costs. C．More health care services. D．Better leisure activities. 4．What is the author's purpose in writing the passage? A．To advise living in nuclear families. B．To call on maintaining good friendships. C．To encourage people to live close to friends. D．To tell people how to turn friends into neighbors. Passage9. He and I met a few years back at a local Starbucks where I’ve been a regular customer for many years. Over time we got to know each other and got to be good friends. As I recall, he took the first step in inviting my son and me to a full night of country concerts, free of charge. Since then, we have become each other’s best friends. He could be described in many ways, but the following, is definitely at the top: “Kindness is making someone smile if only for a moment.” This is him. And... He does it every single day, without fail. To be completely honest, I could go on talking about him endlessly. However, since I don’t want this story to be too long, I’m going to finish up here with one last thing. Back in October 2023, I was going through an exceptionally tough time. He helped me to have an incredibly difficult, deeply personal, embarrassing conversation with my parents; truly, without doubt, the most difficult conversation I’ve ever had to have with them. The following are copies of texts he sent me during that time. “Try calling your parents and having this talk with them. All will work out and I will help you as well by telling you no or think about it first. I love you. You are my best friend.” “Hey, bro. It’s embarrassing but at least that can start to heal and everyone moves forward.” “Getting you on track. You can do this and I will walk with you.” I truly don’t know where I’d be without his kindness and friendship. 1．Where did the author and his best friend first meet? A．At his son’s school. B．At a country concert. C．At a local Starbucks. D．On the Internet. 2．Which of the following can best describe the author’s best friend? A．He is known for his wealth and generosity. B．He makes someone’s every day brightened. C．He often tells jokes to lighten the mood. D．He enjoys chatting with people in cafes. 3．How did the author’s best friend help him in October 2023? A．By answering his parents’ texts for him. B．By calling and talking with his parents. C．By taking care of his son occasionally. D．By offering him valuable emotional support. 4．What might have been sent to the author by his friend? A．“Try ignoring your parents and avoiding the conversation.” B．“Time will heal and you will put joy on your parents’ face.” C．“It’s not embarrassing at all, and it doesn’t need to be healed.” D．“No need to worry. Everything will solve itself without action.” Passage10. When we were very small, we realized that having friends was important. The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in forming our personalities (性格).As adults, it is still important for us to have friends. True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes. True friends are people who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when we’re foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are sad. They are people we aren’t afraid of telling our secret wishes to. Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends always offer support for us. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or cheering us up when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on. Friends also help us reduce stress. When we feel stressed, they not only listen to us but also discuss with us about it. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. 1．The underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 2 probably means . A．educate B．encourage C．surprise D．dislike 2．We can learn from the third paragraph that friends always . A．laugh at us when we’re foolish B．tell us other people’s secrets C．share our sadness and interests D．support us when we need help 3．According to the passage, we can reduce stress by _____. A．listening to music B．discussing our stress with friends C．having a big dinner D．travelling with our friends 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．How to Reduce Stress B．How to Make New Friends C．The Importance of Friends D．The Qualities of Good Friends 二、完形填空 Passage1. Making friends is a skill. Like most skills, it 1 patience. If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to 2 some action. You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends staying home 3 . Joining a club or group, talking to those who like the same things as you do is much easier. Or join someone 4 some activities. Many people are shy when talking to new people. 5 all, meeting strangers means seeing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a bit 6 about the unknown. Most of fears about 7 new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are 8 us—finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself 9 you are, and try to put the other at ease. You’ll both feel more comfortable. Try to be self-confident even if you don’t feel that way when you 10 a room full of strangers. Walk tall and straight, look at other people directly and 11 . If you see someone you’d like to 12 , say something. Don’t wait for 13 person to start a talk. Just meeting someone 14 does not mean that you’ll make friends with that person. 15 is based on mutual (相互的) liking and “give and take”. It takes time to develop friendship. 1．A．applies B．contacts C．spends D．requires 2．A．improve B．make C．take D．attract 3．A．lonely B．yourself C．by yourself D．actually 4．A．in B．to C．on D．with 5．A．At B．For C．From D．After 6．A．unhappy B．worried C．usual D．unlucky 7．A．meeting B．recognizing C．visiting D．speaking 8．A．talking B．admiring C．judging D．laughing 9．A．when B．as C．what D．that 10．A．design B．enter C．register D．quit 11．A．smile B．contact C．compete D．laugh 12．A．speak to B．sign up C．apply for D．come along 13．A．another B．other C．the other D．others 14．A．outgoing B．new C．confident D．suitable 15．A．Impression B．Behaviour C．Connection D．Friendship Passage2. My classmate Pratik was always painting on paper in spare time. I really wanted to 1 what he was doing, but he 2 kept it secret. One day, during a 3 only Pratik and I were in classroom. One of our classmates came to tell him that our teacher wanted to see him. He 4 the classroom and forgot to put his paper away. Out of curiosity I quickly came to his place and had a look.

To my friend Jane, We laugh about my bad memory, don't we? But I 1 the day I met you. As a child, I had changed homes and schools many times. My family kept 2 , again and again. I had little hope for my time in Vancouver. I set my expectations as 3 as possible, aiming only for high-school graduation. But that September day, as I 4 the crowd of ( 一群) teenagers — you walked up to me. And you said: “Hi there. You're 5 here, aren't you? I'm Jane.” You asked me where I had come from and why I was in Vancouver. But you didn't ask for details. 6 , you asked me where I lived and if I took the bus to school. Then you asked, “Would you like to come to my house for tea one day?” Sure, I replied, not 7 that would come to pass. A week later, you did 8 me over. You 9 me to your mother. She 10 us in the sitting room and brought us tea, along with cookies and cakes. After my 11 that afternoon, you invited me back again. You introduced me to your friends. I became part of your 12 . After that day, I began to 13 that perhaps it was worth investing (投入) in these 14 , giving a bit of myself to you and them.

I received a call telling me that my brother and his wife had been killed in a car crash. Shocked and grieved (悲痛的), I 1 down on the couch. Several friends phoned me, 2 kindly, “If there’s anything I can do, let me know.” “Thank you very much,” I’d reply. But I didn’t know what to 3 . When the door bell rang, I 4 and moved slowly across the room. I opened the door to see Donna, a friend of mine, standing in the doorway. “I’ve come to clean the shoes,” she said. 5 , I asked her to repeat. “I remember when my father died, it took me 6 to get the children’s shoes cleaned and shined for the 7 . So that’s what I’ve come to do for you. Donna settled herself on the laundry room (洗衣房) floor and 8 whole-heartedly on her work, saying nothing.

I can still remember the first day when I met my best friend. She had just moved to the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to meet me. I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother, scared of looking at each other. Soon, we lost the shyness and started playing with each other, riding bikes to each other’s house and having sleepovers. In 7th grade she was going through family problems. However, every summer we would sit at each other’s house, watch movies on TV and talk about all the boys we liked. It was last year that I noticed the problem. She suffered from clinical depression (临床抑郁症), and had to go to a hospital during the day. I was very sorry for her at first. But with the late night calls and meeting each other halfway up the street at midnight, we still stayed in touch. I wanted to be there for her since her new best friend left her, and I knew I still cared about her like a sister. Yesterday she came to me and said, “I never knew what a best friend was until you were the only person that would stop me from cutting myself and that ever made me feel better about myself and my problems. You didn’t know this but I was trying to kill myself that very night you called me and I was crying. I owe you so much, and you didn’t even know you were helping me. ” We both cried. And I guess a kind of lesson from my life so far is to never give up your friends. Even if they aren’t as cool as others, or people think they are crazy, they need someone there. If you leave them, you will only be very sorry. So if your friends need you, and you care about them, you should be always there for them. 1．Why did the two girls hide behind their family members when they first met? A．Because they were playing a game. B．Because they didn’t like each other. C．Because they quarreled before. D．Because they were both shy. 2．What’s the problem of my best friend? A．family problems B．having difficulty in studying C．clinical depression D．bad relationship with classmates 3．What would have happened to her friend if the author had not cared about her? A．She would have lost her new best friend. B．She would have killed herself that night. C．She would have run away from her family. D．She would have stayed in hospital for a long time. 4．What lesson can we learn from the story? A．Always care about your friends. B．Don’t care about others’ opinions. C．Never owe your friends too much. D．Try to be as cool as others. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者帮助自己得了抑郁症的好朋友的经过，并从中感悟到永远不要离开和放弃你的朋友，因为你离开了朋友，你会为自己的行为感到内疚。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“I can still remember the first day when I met my best friend. She had just moved to the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to meet me. I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother, scared of looking at each other. (我仍然记得第一天见到我最好的朋友的情景。她刚搬到附近，她祖母带她来见我。我躲在母亲身后，她躲在祖母身后，不敢看对方。)”和第二段“Soon, we lost the shyness and started playing with each other, riding bikes to each other’s house and having sleepovers. (很快，我们不再害羞，开始一起玩耍，骑自行车去对方家，在对方家过夜。)”可知这两个女孩第一次见面时躲在她们的家人后面是因为她们都很害羞。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“It was last year that I noticed the problem. She suffered from clinical depression (临床抑郁症), and had to go to a hospital during the day. (我是在去年注意到这个问题的。她患有临床抑郁症，白天不得不去医院。)”可知作者最好的朋友患有临床抑郁症，故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第四段“Yesterday she came to me and said, “I never knew what a best friend was until you were the only person that would stop me from cutting myself and that ever made me feel better about myself and my problems. You didn’t know this but I was trying to kill myself that very night you called me and I was crying. I owe you so much, and you didn’t even know you were helping me. ” (昨天她对我说：“我从来不知道什么是最好的朋友，直到你成为唯一一个能阻止我割伤自己，让我对自己和自己的问题感觉更好的人。”你不知道，你打电话给我的那天晚上我想自杀，我哭了。我欠你太多了，而你甚至不知道你在帮助我。”)”可知如果作者不关心她的朋友，她的朋友那天可能会自杀，故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段“And I guess a kind of lesson from my life so far is to never give up your friends. Even if they aren’t as cool as others, or people think they are crazy, they need someone there. If you leave them, you will only be very sorry. So if your friends need you, and you care about them, you should be always there for them. (我想从我的生活中得到的教训是永远不要放弃你的朋友。即使他们不像其他人那么酷，或者人们认为他们很疯狂，他们也需要有人在身边。如果你离开他们，你只会非常遗憾。所以，如果你的朋友需要你，而你又关心他们，你就应该永远在他们身边。)”可推知我们能从这个故事中学到要永远关心自己的朋友，故选A。 Passage2. My roommate Lily was well organised, while I was not. Each of her things had its place, but mine were always hidden somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签于) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Lily got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other. War broke out one evening. Lily came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming. “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder. The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Lily answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy (同情) rose up in my heart. Slowly. I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so lost in my work that I even didn’t notice Lily had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression a kind of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.” Lily and I stayed roommates for the rest of the college years. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together, giving in, cleaning up and holding on. 1．How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed? A．By analyzing causes. B．By giving some examples. C．By showing the difference. D．By describing a process. 2．What made Lily so angry one evening? A．She heard the author shouting loud. B．She saw the author’s shoes under her bed. C．She got the news that her grandma was ill. D．She couldn’t find her books anymore. 3．Why did the author clean up the room? A．Because she wanted to show her care for Lily. B．Because she hated herself for being so messy. C．Because Lily required her to do so. D．Because she was scared by Lily’s anger. 4．What might be the best title for the passage? A．Hard Work Pays Off B．Learning to Be Roommates C．My Friend Lily D．How to Be Organised? 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了室友之间的冲突及如何通过理解和互相包容解决矛盾的故事。 1．推理判断题。根据第一段中“My roommate Lily was well organised, while I was not. Each of her things had its place, but mine were always hidden somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签于) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Lily got neater and I got messier. (我的室友Lily非常有条理，而我没有。她的每样东西都有固定的位置，而我的东西总是藏在某个地方。她甚至给所有的东西都贴上了标签。我总是到处找东西。随着时间的推移，Lily变得越来越整洁，而我则越来越杂乱。)”可知，第一段主要描述了作者和室友Lily在组织习惯上的不同，Lily很有条理，而作者则很杂乱。所以作者是通过叙述两人之间的差异来组织这一段的内容的，故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Soon, I heard her screaming. ‘Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!’ (很快，我听到她尖叫：‘把你的鞋拿走！为什么会在我的床下！’)”可知，让Lily发怒的是她看见作者的鞋子在她的床下面，故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy (同情) rose up in my heart. (显然，这是她不应该独自经历的事情。突然间，一股温暖的同情之情在我心中升起。)”可知，作者打扫房间是因为她同情Lily，想要表达自己对她的关心，故选A。 4．主旨大意题。根据全文内容及最后一段中“We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together, giving in, cleaning up and holding on. (我们并不总是一致，但我们学会了共同生活的关键，学会妥协、整理和坚持。)”可知，本文主要讲述了作者与自己的室友Lily的生活习惯很不相同，后来她们两个人之间发生的一场冲突让作者学会了关心室友，学会了如何与室友相处，因此最好的标题应该是B选项“Learning to Be Roommates (学会做室友)”，故选B。 Passage3. If you’re new to a school or you are shy or tend to not get out of your comfort zone (舒适区), making new friends at school might seem like a challenge. Luckily, you can overcome that challenge by looking for people with the same interests as you and by being friendly when you meet new people. Also, participate in after-school clubs and events whenever you get the chance, since that will help you meet people outside of class! Look for people who have the same hobbies as you. You’re more likely to be friends with someone if you have something in common with them. Try to find clubs or groups based on(基于……) your favorite hobbies, then join them to meet like-minded (志趣相投的) people. Also, pay attention to people who spend their free time doing the same things you love to do. If you’re a passionate (充满激情的) reader, join a book club, go to public readings, or start a conversation with someone who carries novels around with their textbooks. Spend time around people who show kindness. Finding someone who will treat you well and support you is more important than popularity. Avoid spending time with people who talk bad about others or put them down. Instead, look for people who invite others to sit with them at lunch, who encourage others when they speak up in class, or who are always willing to help when someone needs a hand.     Introduce yourself to new people whenever possible. When you’re around someone you don’t know, it is not unusual to just sit there quietly, especially if you’re shy. However, you and the other person will both be more comfortable after a simple introduction. Make eye contact with the person, smile, and try to seem warm and relaxed instead of nervous or anxious. Then, break the ice by talking about whatever is going on around you. Keep the conversation going with open-ended questions (开放式问题). When you start talking to someone, try asking them questions about what they like to see what you have in common with them. However, avoid simply asking yes or no questions, since one-word answers don’t necessarily keep a conversation alive. You can ask questions about whatever you’re already talking about, or you can change the subject if you feel that ran its course. 1．Who is the passage intended for? A．Teachers. B．Students. C．Parents. D．Adults. 2．If you are fond of reading, you can ________. A．join a club to make friends B．approach people with lots of hobbies C．spend your free time meeting different people D．talk to people with the same interests 3．According to Paragraph 4, who is more likely to be a good friend? A．One who enjoys the popularity. B．One who talks bad about others. C．One who wants to help you. D．One who always put others down. 4．According to Paragraph 5, what should you do first when you meet someone you don’t know well? A．Start with a warm handshake. B．Make eye contact with the person. C．Start with a brief introduction of yourself. D．Start by talking about a serious topic. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．C 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要给新生在新学校结交新朋友提供几点建议，例如通过寻找有相同兴趣的人，或是参加课外俱乐部和活动。 1．推理判断题。根据第一段“If you’re new to a school or you are shy or tend to not get out of your comfort zone, making new friends at school might seem like a challenge.(如果你刚到一所学校，或者你很害羞，或者你倾向于不走出自己的舒适区，在学校结交新朋友似乎是一个挑战。)”可知，文章主要面向的读者是刚步入新学校的新生。故选B项。 2．细节理解题。根据Look for people who have the same hobbies as you.下列第二段“If you’re a passionate reader, join a book club, go to public readings, or start a conversation with someone who carries novels around with their textbooks.(如果你热爱读书，那就加入读书俱乐部，参加公共读书会，或者和那些带着小说来学校的同学交流。)”可知，喜欢读书的人可以去找和自己有相同兴趣的人交谈。故选D项。 3．推理判断题。根据Spend time around people who show kindness.下列“Finding someone who will treat you well and support you is more important than popularity. Avoid spending time with people who talk bad about others or put them down. Instead, look for people who invite others to sit with them at lunch, who encourage others when they speak up in class, or who are always willing to help when someone needs a hand.(找到一个对你好并支持你的人比受欢迎更重要。避免和那些说别人坏话或贬低别人的人呆在一起；相反，寻找那些在午餐时邀请别人坐在一起的人，那些在课堂上鼓励别人发言的人，或者那些在别人需要帮助时总是愿意帮助的人。)”可知，一个想要支持、帮助你的人更有可能成为你的好朋友。故选C项。 4．细节理解题。根据Introduce yourself to new people whenever possible.下列“However, you and the other person will both be more comfortable after a simple introduction. (然而，经过简单的介绍，你和对方都会感觉更舒服。)”可知，当你遇到不太熟悉的人时，你可以从简单的自我介绍开始。故选C项。 Passage4. I remember when I was growing up, my mom always said, “Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others.” It’s so true. Friends allow us to enjoy the taste of our success and our joy and comfort us in our challenging moments. They provide a mirror for us to learn more about ourselves. I have always thought of friends as the family members. They enrich our lives. As Robert Louis Steven once said, “A friend is a present which you give yourself.” To be a good friend, it’s very important to be a good listener. Hear what your friend says first rather than reach conclusions (结论) quickly. Sometimes it is useful to repeat their words back to them. It can help them to realize whether their words were what they wanted to say. Patience is also important in being a good friend. You know the old golden rule — Care for others in the way you would like them to care for you. The support of a friend during a difficult time could make a difference between success and failure. Encouragement is the best gift that can change a person’s life. Politeness and kindness are also very necessary, especially when you make new friends. If you want to offer your friends some suggestions, describe and explain them politely. Remember to keep smiling on your face. We should choose our friends carefully, because they can have a huge influence on our life. As someone told me, “Your friends are like the button on a lift. Sometimes they will take you up; sometimes they will take you down.” 1．In fact, the mother’s words mean that ______. A．a friend’s present can make us richer B．we should be patient with our friends C．sharing with friends can give us happiness D．we can only have fun when being with friends 2．When we make new friends, we should always ______. A．give them suggestions B．repeat their words back to them C．give them encouragement D．be polite and kind to them 3．The underlined word “button” means ______ in Chinese. A．按钮 B．信号 C．品牌 D．便签 4．The passage mainly tells us ______. A．how to influence a friend B．how to be a good friend C．how to lead a friend to success D．how to make friends rich 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了如何成为一个好朋友。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“I remember when I was growing up, my mom always said, “Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others.”(我记得在我成长的过程中，我妈妈总是说：“做任何事情的一半乐趣在于与他人分享。”)”可知，母亲的话意味着与朋友分享可以给我们带来快乐。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Politeness and kindness are also very necessary, especially when you make new friends. If you want to offer your friends some suggestions, describe and explain them politely. Remember to keep smiling on your face.(礼貌和善良也是非常必要的，尤其是当你结交新朋友的时候。如果你想给你的朋友提供一些建议，礼貌地描述和解释它们。记得保持微笑。)”可知，当我们结交新朋友时，我们应该礼貌和友善。故选D。 3．词句猜测题。根据“on a lift (在电梯上)”以及后句“Sometimes they will take you up; sometimes they will take you down.(有时他们会带你上去；有时他们会带你下来)”可推知，划线词button和A项“按钮”含义相近。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。文章第一段“I remember when I was growing up, my mom always said, “Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others.”(我记得在我成长的过程中，我妈妈总是说：“做任何事情的一半乐趣在于与他人分享。”)说明好朋友的作用，文章第二段“To be a good friend, it’s very important to be a good listener. (要成为一个好朋友，做一个好的倾听者是非常重要的。)”和后文讲述如何成为一个好朋友的方法，可知文章主要讲述的是如何成为一个好朋友。故B项：How to be a good friend(如何成为一个好朋友)是文章主要内容。故选B。 Passage5. Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous (慷慨的); be understanding. Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly. Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better. Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with each other. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s shoes so that you can understand the problem better. No two friendships are exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding. 1．Some friendships don’t last long because _______. A．there are too many people who want to make friends B．some people receive friendship but don’t give friendship back C．those who give others friendship receive friendship from others D．they don’t know friendship is something serious 2．According to the passage, honesty is _______. A．something countable B．the base of friendship C．as important as money D．more important than anything else 3．The best title of this passage is _______. A．Honesty Is the Best Policy B．A Friend in Need Is a Friend indeed C．How to Be Friends D．Three Important Points in Life 4．According to the author, which of the following is true? A．Learning to be a good friend means learning to be kind to your friends. B．If you tell a lie and your friend finds out, he or she will never trust you again. C．You should treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you if you want a true friendship. D．Generosity means sharing everything with your friends, which helps a friendship grow. 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．D 4．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了如何对待朋友，和学习做一个好朋友意味着学习三条规则：诚实，慷慨，和理解。并分别说明了这三条规则的含义，最后指出没有两种友谊是完全相同的。但所有真正的友谊都有三个共同点。如果你打算保持你的友谊，你必须诚实，慷慨和理解。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last long. (太多的人希望别人成为他们的朋友，但他们不给予友谊回报。这就是为什么有些友谊不能长久)”由此可知，有些友谊不会持续很长时间因为有些人接受友谊却不回报友谊。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Honesty is where a good friendship starts.(诚实是友谊开始的地方)”可知，诚实是一段美好友谊的开始。由此可知，诚实是友谊的基础。故选B。 3．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“ If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly. (如果你想要一段真正的友谊，你应该像你希望你的朋友对待你那样对待你的朋友)”以及最后一段“But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding. (但是所有真正的友谊都有三个共同点。如果你打算保持你的朋友，你必须练习诚实，慷慨和理解)”可知，文章主要讲述的是有真正的友谊都有三个共同点：诚实，慷慨和理解。D项：Three Important Points in Life(人生的三个要点)适合作为文章标题。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. (要有朋友，先要学会做人。你必须学会怎样对待你的朋友，你也希望你的朋友怎样对待你。)”可知 C项：You should treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you if you want a true friendship.( 如果你想要一段真正的友谊，你应该像你希望你的朋友对待你那样对待你的朋友。)正确。故选C。 Passage6. In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? In my opinion, understanding is the most important quality in choosing a good friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener. At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me. Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me. There is a fourth quality that makes friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experiences and learn from each other. A good friend has a sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me. When I meet someone that is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I’ve found a good friend. 1．If you have fair-weather friends, ______. A．you will be refused when you get into trouble. B．they will give you all that they have when you need help C．you will become rich D．you can be sure that you get real friends 2．Good friends need to ______. A．have money or luck B．understand each other’s feeling C．be helped with money D．always point out each other’s mistakes 3．The passage is mainly about ______. A．how to get along with friends B．where to choose friends C．the qualities of friends D．the importance of having a friend 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了好朋友应该具备的四个优良品质。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. (有时你会遇到酒肉朋友。只要你有钱或有运气，他们就会和你在一起，但当你失意时，他们就会跑掉。)”可知，如果你遇到的是酒肉朋友，当你陷入困境求助时，你会遭到拒绝。故选A项。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. (好朋友会努力去理解另一个人的感受。)”可知，好朋友需要理解对方的感受。故选B项。 3．主旨大意题。通读全文，根据倒数第二段中“There is a fourth quality that makes friend special. (有第四种品质使朋友不同寻常。)”以及最后一段中“When I meet someone that is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I’ve found a good friend. (当我遇到一个可靠，诚实，善解人意的人，我知道我找到了一个好朋友。)”可知，本文主要介绍了好朋友的四个优良品质，所以本文是关于朋友的品质的。故选C项。 Passage7. A few years ago, it seemed like Taylor Swift never went anywhere without a large group of friends. No matter what event she attended, a list squad (小队) — which included famous people like Selena Gomez, Zen d and God Ha did — would be right by her side. But now Swift wants fans to know that her friendships weren’t as perfect as she tried to make people believe. In fact, she says she was using her friend group to hide her insecurity (不安全) of feeling “uncool” and “unpopular”. Swift says she went out of her way to show off her squad because she didn’t have many friends when she was younger — a memory that still bothered her years later. “Never being popular as a kid was always an insecurity for me,” she says. When she became famous, Swift became obsessed (沉迷) with showing off her popularity. “In my twenties, I found myself surrounded by girls who wanted to be my friends,” Swift explains. “So I celebrated my newfound acceptance into a sisterhood.” But by constantly putting her friends on display, Swift failed to consider how bad her fans might feel about themselves because they didn’t have a squad like hers. “I didn’t realize that other people might still feel the way I did when I felt so alone,” she says. As she became older and more confident in herself, Swift started focusing on the quality of her friends, not the quantity (数量). She says she finally understands that the size of her group doesn’t mean how “cool” she is. To her, it’s much more important to have a few friends who can be trusted rather than a large group of “fair-weather” friends. While Swift still values her friends she has in her life, she no longer feels the pressure to show off them for the sake of impressing others. “For too long, the opinions of strangers affected how I viewed things. But now I learn not to let outside opinions affect my own life choices.” 1．What made Swift know old list squad? A．The popularity of her friends. B．Her childhood experience. C．The support of her fans. D．Her strong social influence. 2．What does paragraph 4 intend to tell us? A．We should make real friends. B．It is important to trust our friends. C．Our friends can affect our behavior. D．There are many ways of making friends. 3．What does the underlined word “sake” probably mean in the last paragraph? A．Request. B．Advice. C．Method. D．Purpose. 4．From which is the text probably taken? A．A scientific report. B．A social newspaper. C．A travel magazine. D．A movie poster. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．D 4．B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，本文主要讲述著名歌手Taylor Swift由于童年时期不受欢迎的经历喜欢带着一群朋友团，后来随着年龄的增长和自信心的增强，Swift开始关注朋友的质量，学会了不让外界的观点影响自己的人生选择。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Swift says she went out of her way to show off her squad because she didn’t have many friends when she was younger — a memory that still bothered her years later.(Swift说，她特意去炫耀她的团队，因为她年轻的时候没有很多朋友——多年后这段记忆仍然困扰着她)”可知，童年时期的经历让Swift认识了她的朋友小分队。故选B。 2．主旨大意题。根据第四段“As she became older and more confident in herself, Swift started focusing on the quality of her friends, not the quantity(数量). She says she finally understands that the size of her group doesn’t mean how “cool” she is. To her, it’s much more important to have a few friends who can be trusted rather than a large group of “fair- weather” friends.(随着年龄的增长和自信心的增强，Swift开始关注朋友的质量，而不是数量。她说她终于明白，她的团队规模并不意味着她有多“酷”。对她来说，有几个可以信任的朋友比一大群“酒肉朋友”重要得多)”可知，本段主要告诉我们要结交真正的朋友。故选A。 3．词句猜测题。根据第二段中“In fact, she says she was using her friend group to hide her insecurity (不安全) of feeling “uncool” and “unpopular”. Swift says she went out of her way to show off her squad(事实上，她说她是在利用她的朋友群来隐藏她的不安全感，因为她觉得自己“不酷”、“不受欢迎”。Swift说，她特意去炫耀她的团队)”以及划线词后“of impressing others(给别人留下深刻印象)”可知，Swift炫耀自己的朋友来隐藏自己的不安全感，推知划线词所在句意为“虽然Swift仍然珍惜她生命中的朋友，但她不再感到为了给别人留下深刻印象而炫耀他们的压力”，sake意为“目的”。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据全文内容，结合第四段中“As she became older and more confident in herself, Swift started focusing on the quality of her friends, not the quantity (数量).(随着年龄的增长和自信心的增强，Swift开始关注朋友的质量，而不是数量)”和最后一段中“For too long, the opinions of strangers affected how I viewed things. But now I learn not to let outside opinions affect my own life choices.(很长一段时间以来，陌生人的观点影响了我对事物的看法。但现在我学会了不让外界的观点影响我自己的人生选择)”可知，本文主要讲述著名歌手Taylor Swift由于童年时期不受欢迎的经历喜欢带着一群朋友团，后来随着年龄的增长和自信心的增强，Swift开始关注朋友的质量，学会了不让外界的观点影响自己的人生选择，是关于友谊的，应是出自社交报纸。故选B。 Passage8. Sometimes I began to imagine: what if I were neighbors with all of my friends? The more I’ve thought about it, the more I believe: we should all live close to our friends. For the past century, the nuclear family, only including parents and children, has defined U.S. homes. But Americans lived with friends and extended family long before the nuclear family became common. Even now, this mode of living exists somewhere; think of college campuses, which tend to be the kind of walkable communities where you’re regularly running into pals on the street. While moving closer to friends would likely require a lot of efforts, doing so could actually be really good for you. Having supportive friends is connected with greater day-to-day happiness. Researchers have found that happiness spreads easily, especially among those who live close together. Friends living within a mile of each other are 25 percent more likely to feel happy, and their friends have a 10 percent chance of feeling happier too. Live around people who make you happy, and you might create a happiness circle that cheers up everyone around you. Having a pal around is also just practical. For people with kids, a friend in the neighborhood might be able to help with child care in times of need, saving you the cost of a last-minute babysitter. Those without children might welcome the chance to bond with friends’ kids. And for people who live alone, living closer to friends can make savings on some things easier. You might share household items you don’t need every day, for example. Whatever the reason, having more people you trust around will make it easier for you to get through difficult times. Many people are prepared to move for a new job, to be with a romantic partner, or even just for an adventure. Moving to be closer to friends should be no different. Friends are important to a good life. So why not shorten the distance between you and them? 1．Which was popular in the US before the nuclear family became common? A．The one-parent family. B．The extended family only. C．The college campus community. D．The family group with relatives and friends. 2．What do the percentages in Para. 3 show about living closer to friends? A．It spreads happiness among friends easily. B．It benefits one’s physical and mental health. C．It improves one’s awareness of family building. D．It increases one’s chances of making more new friends. 3．What is the practical advantage of living near friends? A．Greater personal growth. B．Lower living costs. C．More health care services. D．Better leisure activities. 4．What is the author's purpose in writing the passage? A．To advise living in nuclear families. B．To call on maintaining good friendships. C．To encourage people to live close to friends. D．To tell people how to turn friends into neighbors. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．B 4．C 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章讨论了与朋友住得近的好处，并鼓励人们搬到离朋友更近的地方居住。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But Americans lived with friends and extended family long before the nuclear family became common.（但在核心家庭普及之前，美国人是和朋友及大家庭一起生活的。）”可知，在核心家庭普及之前，美国流行的是与亲戚和朋友一起生活的家庭群体。故选D。 2．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Researchers have found that happiness spreads easily, especially among those who live close together. Friends living within a mile of each other are 25 percent more likely to feel happy, and their friends have a 10 percent chance of feeling happier too.（研究人员发现，幸福感很容易传播，尤其是在那些住得很近的人之间。住在一英里以内的朋友感到幸福的可能性增加了25%，他们的朋友感到更幸福的可能性也增加了10%。）”可知，这些百分比数据表明，与朋友住得近会让幸福感在朋友之间更容易传播。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“And for people who live alone, living closer to friends can make savings on some things easier. You might share household items you don’t need every day, for example.(对于独居的人来说，住得离朋友近一些可以更容易在一些事情上省钱。例如，你可以分享一些你不每天需要的家居用品。)”可知，与朋友住得近的实际好处是可以降低生活成本。故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Many people are prepared to move for a new job, to be with a romantic partner, or even just for an adventure. Moving to be closer to friends should be no different. Friends are important to a good life. So why not shorten the distance between you and them?（许多人准备为了新工作、与恋人在一起，甚至只是为了冒险而搬家。搬到离朋友更近的地方也应该如此。朋友对美好生活很重要。那么为什么不缩短你和他们之间的距离呢？）”可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是鼓励人们搬到离朋友更近的地方居住。故选C。 Passage9. He and I met a few years back at a local Starbucks where I’ve been a regular customer for many years. Over time we got to know each other and got to be good friends. As I recall, he took the first step in inviting my son and me to a full night of country concerts, free of charge. Since then, we have become each other’s best friends. He could be described in many ways, but the following, is definitely at the top: “Kindness is making someone smile if only for a moment.” This is him. And... He does it every single day, without fail. To be completely honest, I could go on talking about him endlessly. However, since I don’t want this story to be too long, I’m going to finish up here with one last thing. Back in October 2023, I was going through an exceptionally tough time. He helped me to have an incredibly difficult, deeply personal, embarrassing conversation with my parents; truly, without doubt, the most difficult conversation I’ve ever had to have with them. The following are copies of texts he sent me during that time. “Try calling your parents and having this talk with them. All will work out and I will help you as well by telling you no or think about it first. I love you. You are my best friend.” “Hey, bro. It’s embarrassing but at least that can start to heal and everyone moves forward.” “Getting you on track. You can do this and I will walk with you.” I truly don’t know where I’d be without his kindness and friendship. 1．Where did the author and his best friend first meet? A．At his son’s school. B．At a country concert. C．At a local Starbucks. D．On the Internet. 2．Which of the following can best describe the author’s best friend? A．He is known for his wealth and generosity. B．He makes someone’s every day brightened. C．He often tells jokes to lighten the mood. D．He enjoys chatting with people in cafes. 3．How did the author’s best friend help him in October 2023? A．By answering his parents’ texts for him. B．By calling and talking with his parents. C．By taking care of his son occasionally. D．By offering him valuable emotional support. 4．What might have been sent to the author by his friend? A．“Try ignoring your parents and avoiding the conversation.” B．“Time will heal and you will put joy on your parents’ face.” C．“It’s not embarrassing at all, and it doesn’t need to be healed.” D．“No need to worry. Everything will solve itself without action.” 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 4．B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者和好朋友相识的过程，以及在作者艰难时期给予帮助和关心的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中“He and I met a few years back at a local Starbucks where I’ve been a regular customer for many years. Over time we got to know each other and got to be good friends.”（我和他是几年前在当地一家星巴克认识的，我多年来一直是星巴克的常客。随着时间的推移，我们彼此了解，成为了好朋友。）可知，作者和他最好的朋友第一次见面是在当地的星巴克。故选C项。 2．推理判断题。根据第二段中“He could be described in many ways, but the following, is definitely at the top: “Kindness is making someone smile if only for a moment.””（他可以用很多方式来描述，但下面这条绝对是最重要的：“善良就是让别人微笑，哪怕只是片刻。”）以及第三段“This is him. And... He does it every single day, without fail.”（这就是他。以及……他每天都这么做，从不间断。）可推知，作者最好的朋友使别人的每一天都很愉快。故选B项。 3．推理判断题。根据倒数第四段““Try calling your parents and having this talk with them. All will work out and I will help you as well by telling you no or think about it first. I love you. You are my best friend.””（“试着打电话给你的父母，和他们谈谈。一切都会解决的，我也会帮助你，告诉你不，或者先考虑一下。我爱你。你是我最好的朋友。”）和倒数第三段““Hey, bro. It’s embarrassing but at least that can start to heal and everyone moves forward.””（“嘿，兄弟。这很尴尬，但至少可以开始愈合，每个人都能继续前进。”）可推知，2023年10月，作者最好的朋友为他提供宝贵的情感支持来帮助他的。故选D项。 4．推理判断题。根据倒数第四段““Try calling your parents and having this talk with them. All will work out and I will help you as well by telling you no or think about it first. I love you. You are my best friend.””（“试着打电话给你的父母，和他们谈谈。一切都会解决的，我也会帮助你，告诉你不，或者先考虑一下。我爱你。你是我最好的朋友。”）和倒数第三段““Hey, bro. It’s embarrassing but at least that can start to heal and everyone moves forward.””（“嘿，兄弟。这很尴尬，但至少可以开始愈合，每个人都能继续前进。”）以及 倒数第二段““Getting you on track. You can do this and I will walk with you.””（“让你走上正轨。你可以这样做，我会陪你一起走。”）可推知，作者的朋友可能给他发送的是“时间会治愈一切，你会让父母高兴的。”故选B项。 Passage10. When we were very small, we realized that having friends was important. The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in forming our personalities (性格).As adults, it is still important for us to have friends. True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes. True friends are people who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when we’re foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are sad. They are people we aren’t afraid of telling our secret wishes to. Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends always offer support for us. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or cheering us up when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on. Friends also help us reduce stress. When we feel stressed, they not only listen to us but also discuss with us about it. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. 1．The underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 2 probably means .

They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are sad.( 他们和我们一起欢笑，分享我们的悲伤。他们是我们的伙伴，与我们有共同的利益。当我们悲伤时，他们会 我们。)”可知，这里指当我们伤心的时候，朋友可以“鼓励”我们，所以猜测stimulate表“激励，鼓励”的意思。故选C项。 2．细节理解题。由文章第三段“Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends always offer support for us. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or cheering us up when we need one.(朋友是我们的支持者。当你可以依靠朋友时，你会感到安全和温暖。朋友总是为我们提供支持。有时，他们也会帮助我们的日常生活，做饭，做家务，或者在我们需要的时候给我们打气。)”可知，当我们需要帮助时，朋友总是支持我们。故选D项。 3．细节理解题。由文章最后一段“When we feel stressed, they not only listen to us but also discuss with us about it.
