Do you always feel lonely? When do you feel lonely? Is loneliness a good feeling? Nowadays more and more people are having this kind of feeling in their daily life. When someone feels lonely, he or she will have an experience of being alone because of low levels of social contact and relationship. There are two kinds of loneliness: emotional loneliness and social loneliness. Emotional loneliness is about the relationship between parents and their children. When children leave their parents for a while, they usually show the pain, such as crying and trying to search for their parents. Therefore, emotional loneliness is caused by leaving a person that someone is close to, such as a parent. On the other hand, social loneliness is the loneliness that one experiences when he or she leaves a wide social network. One doesn’t feel that he or she is a member of a group, or one doesn’t have friends to talk to when he or she is sad. Besides, loneliness is different from being alone. Being alone is about not having contact with people. But loneliness is a subjective experience: if people think they are lonely, then they are lonely. People can be lonely when they are alone, or in a group. What makes people lonely is the fact that they want more social interaction. People can be in a group and feel lonely because they don’t get to talk to enough people. On the other hand, one can be alone and not feel lonely, though there is no one around him or her. That person is not lonely because maybe he or she doesn’t want to have social interaction at that time. So, what about you? Will you feel lonely if you stay alone? Or you just enjoy the time being with yourself. 61．Why did the writer start the passage with questions? A．To let readers answer these questions. B．To ask for more ideas about loneliness. C．To make readers interested in the passage. D．To check students’ understanding of loneliness. 62．What are they in common, a person with emotional loneliness and one with social loneliness? A．They have no friends to talk to. B．They have a small social network. C．They have a feeling of being lonely. D．They don’t get on well with their parents. 63．What does “a subjective experience” mean? A．A hot subject. B．A person’s own feeling. C．A pain in the body. D．A person’s special plan. 64．What can we learn from the third paragraph? A．One can be not lonely with nobody around. B．Being alone is an important reason of loneliness. C．Different people have the same level of social interactions. D．Staying with group members can make people feel less lonely. 65. Which following sentence is not true? A. Emotional loneliness is about the relationship between parents and their children. B. loneliness is similar to be alone. C.What makes people lonely is the fact that they want more social interaction D.People can be lonely when they are alone, or in a group. 第二节（共5小题, 每小题2分；计10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并涂在答题卡相应的位置 You have already known that doing exercise is good for you.
