Ⅳ.阅读理解
When you are a kid, gaining a best friend forever can happen in a single play date.But when you grow up to be an adult, making and maintaining friendships gets harder.So how much quality time (优质时光) do you need before that stranger becomes your friend? A new study recently found that, on average, it takes about 50 hours with someone before you consider them a casual (感情不深的) friend, about 90 hours before you become real friends, and about 200 hours to become close friends.
The study's author Jeffrey Hall, a communications professor, invited adults who are eager to make friends to take part in two experiments—people who had just moved to a new city in the past six months and college freshmen.He asked them to rate and track the degree of closeness and time spent together with a new person.“Results suggest that the chance of changing from casual friend to real friend is greater than 50% after around 80-100 hours together,” said Hall.
The study found that the amount of time spent talking together, or the fact that you spent time at school or work with them, was unrelated to friendship closeness.“It is really easy to spend a lot of time with people as they are routinely in the same place at the same time as you,” Hall said.“However, my study shows you can have workmates you spend hundreds and hundreds of hours with and still not develop a friendship.”
You do not need to become best friends with your workmates to develop meaningful relationships with them.But for those of us hoping to change from “girl who I eat lunch at work with” to “friend I can depend on”, Hall suggests that you need to take the relationship out of the workplace for it to become a friendship.The participants who did activities outside of work with someone, such as being invited to have lunch in their home, were more likely to develop deeper relationships with them.

A.Ways of making friends in a new environment.
B.Why people need to make different friends.

推理判断题。根据第一段中的“A new study recently found that, on average, it takes about 50 hours with someone before you consider them a casual friend, about 90 hours before you become real friends, and about 200 hours to become close friends.”可知,研究发现,与一个人在一起50小时会成为普通朋友,相处90小时会成为真正朋友,200小时后会成为亲密朋友;再根据第二段内容可知,在这项新研究中要求参与者评估和跟踪与一个陌生人在一起的亲密程度和花费的时间,由此可知,该项新研究主要是研究发展一段友谊需要多长时间。故选D项。

词义猜测题。根据第三段画线词前的内容可知,花很多时间与别人在一起很容易,画线单词所在的句子与此处为因果关系。由此可以推断,作为学生或者同事,在一起很容易的原因是人们经常同时出现在同一个场所,所以,画线单词的意思与“经常”意义相近。故选A项。

细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The participants who did activities outside of work with someone, such as being invited to have lunch in their home, were more likely to develop deeper relationships with them.”可知,在工作之外与他人一起参加活动的参与者更有可能与他们建立更深的关系,由此可知,下班之后,邀请同事到你的家里有助于和他们建立更深的关系。故选C项。
