Ⅲ.阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2.5分,共20分)
A
In her new book,Kate Leaver explores modern friendship.If the Internet is the cause of loneliness,she writes,it’s also the cure(解决方法).
Scientists have done studies that suggest a connection between social media and loneliness.But even they have to admit(承认) we do not know what came first: loneliness or social media.Does social media make us lonelier,or do we pick up our phones when we’re already lonely,looking for some kind of connection
I’ve spoken to many people,both my own friends and strangers from the Internet,who would simply not have the same social life without social media.I know a woman who met all three of her bridesmaids(伴娘) on the social media platform.She says she feels her most real self when she’s online and the friends she’s made there are her closest friends.I met the woman on the social media platform,did this interview online and now we’re also friends.
This is perhaps exactly the point: we can no longer quite so easily tell our online selves from what we’d call our in-real-life selves.We are becoming confident enough to put our online and offline selves together as we realise that using social media is an important way to develop friendships.
My best friends in the world live in Melbourne,New York,Los Angeles and New Orleans.I am,at any time,at least 5,000 km away from them.Catch-ups(谈论近况) over dinner are not possible for us.And so,we spend most of our friendship exchanging stories and emojis on social media.
Our group has become home to career advice and mental support(精神支持).I am saddened by anyone who would suggest our largely online friendship is in any way less important than people who have the chance to sit in the same room.We live in a world where technology is everywhere.So embrace it and you’ll get more than you expect.

4.What does the underlined word “embrace” probably mean in the last paragraph
A.Stop. B.Accept.
C.Change. D.Discover.
答案 B
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线单词上文“I am saddened...We live in a world where technology is everywhere.”可知,作者赞成网络友谊,因为我们生活在一个科技无处不在的世界,所以要接受它。由此可知,画线单词embrace与accept(接受)意思接近,故选B。
B
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 homes,were more likely to develop deeper relationships with them.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是一个成年人需要多长时间才能交到一个新朋友,并且建议要想将同事发展成为朋友,需要将这种关系带出工作场所。
5.What is the new study mainly about
A.Ways of making friends in a new environment.
B.Why people need to make different friends.
C.Different levels of friendship.
D.How long it takes to develop a friendship.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句并结合第二段第二句可知,该新研究主要是关于发展一段友谊需要多长时间。故选D项。
6.What do we know about the participants in the study
A.They knew each other before.
B.They had difficulty in making new friends.
C.They were in great need of friends.
D.They started their new life in the same city.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The study’s author Jeffrey Hall...invited adults who are eager to make friends to take part in two experiments...”可知,研究者邀请渴望交朋友的成年人参加了两个实验,由此可知,这项研究的参与者都是非常需要朋友的人。故选C项。
7.What does Hall want to tell us in paragraph 3
A.It is easy to get along well with classmates.
B.Friendship closeness is related to communication.
C.It is unnecessary to become best friends with workmates.
D.Just spending enough time together doesn’t result in friendship.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句和最后一句可知,仅仅在一起度过足够的时间不会促成友谊。故选D项。
8.What does the underlined word “routinely” probably mean in paragraph 3
A.Usually. B.Impressive.
C.Seldom. D.Confidently.
答案 A
解析 词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句可知,在一起聊天的时间或者在学校或者工作中在一起的时间与友谊的亲密程度无关,结合画线单词前的“It is really easy to spend a lot of time with people”可知,花很多时间与别人在一起很容易,由此可以推断,根据常识,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,由此可知,画线单词的意思与“经常”意义相近。故选A项。
Ⅳ.七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
How to Make New Friends
When you start high school,you need to make some new friends because your old friends may be away from you now.It’s not easy to make new friends,but it’s important to make new friends.Good friends help you to be happier. 1 Here are some tips to help you make new friends at high school.
Be confident after you enter high school.People like making friends with those who are confident. 2 Smile and ask them their names,if they’ve seen a new movie,or if they like a sport or an activity.Sit in the middle of the classroom so that a lot of people will sit around you.
3 Don’t change who you are to fit in or please other people.Many people can know it if you aren’t being yourself—don’t try too hard to fit in.There isn’t another person like you,so remember that and accept the fact that you’re special.
Enjoy your new friends.Do something small but nice for them.For example,you can save a seat for your friend.If you can,try and meet up with your friends outside of school and really get to know them. 4
Be a good friend.Being good friends is about trusting each other and caring for each other.It’s about give-and-take.Be there for your friends when you’re needed. 5 Think about their feelings.If you’re a good friend to others,you’ll enjoy friendships that can last long.
A.Don’t be afraid of others.
B.Everyone needs new friends.
C.They can help you do better at school.

3.答案 E
解析 根据下文“Don’t change who you are to fit in or please other people...that you’re special.”可知,下文提到不要为了迎合别人或取悦别人而改变自己,即要做自己。故E选项“当你和别人交谈时,做你自己”符合语境,故选E。
4.答案 G
解析 根据本段上文可知,本段的主旨是享受和朋友在一起,G选项与上文内容一致。故选G。

解析 考查定语从句。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是“town”,关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词which引导,故填which。
3.答案 surroundings
解析 考查名词。表示“环境”时常用surroundings,在句中作介词in的宾语,故填surroundings。
4.答案 struck
解析 考查时态。结合上下文可知,文章描述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时,故填struck。
5.答案 losing

9.答案 appointed
解析 考查非谓语动词。动词appoint和名词短语“place and time”之间是动宾关系,故用过去分词作定语,表示被动,故填appointed。

Ⅱ.阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2.5分,共20分)
A
Although social media can be enjoyable and beneficial,online relationships simply cannot replace real life connection.But simply being in the flesh with someone does not make a lasting,meaningful relationship,which got me thinking: what,exactly,does My search to answer this question took me back more than 2,000 years to Aristotle’s Nichomachean Ethics.What I found couldn’t be more insightful,and it rings just as true today as it must have then.
Aristotle writes that there are three different kinds of friendship:
FRIENDSHIPS BASED ON UTILITY,in which one or both of the parties gain something as a result of the friendship(think: much of the modern “networking” enterprise,or becoming friends with someone because you think they can help you).
FRIENDSHIPS BASED ON PLEASURE,or those centered around pleasant experiences(think: people with whom you can have a good,carefree time).
FRIENDSHIPS BASED ON VIRTUE,in which both individuals share the same values(think: people whom you admire and respect,and with whom you share what you find most important in life).
It’s fascinating that,centuries ago,Aristotle offered that many individuals often pursue friendships primarily for utility.And it’s easy to see that some things never change.
Likewise,he wrote,“Those who love because of what is good for themselves,and those who love because of pleasure do so because of what is pleasant to themselves.Yet what one finds useful or pleasurable,is not permanent but is always changing; thus,when the reason for the friendship is done away,the friendship is dissolved.”
It’s OK to have some friendships mainly for utility and pleasure,but it’s important to realize that these fill a different purpose and are likely to have a shorter lifespan than one built upon shared virtue.And it is the friendships based on virtue that are worth protecting and cherishing.But they require considerable energy to maintain—as Aristotle wrote,“lack of conversation has broken many a friendship”—but what you get out of these friendships easily outweighs what you put in.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。作者主要介绍了亚里士多德描述的三种不同的友谊,认为只有基于美德的友谊才值得保护和珍惜。
1.What is the author’s attitude towards Aristotle’s grouping of friendship
A.Supportive. B.Opposed.
C.Doubtful. D.Unclear.
答案 A
解析 观点态度题。根据第一段中的“What I found couldn’t be more insightful,and it rings just as true today as it must have then.”可知,作者认为亚里士多德对友谊的见地今天听起来和当时一样的正确,因此作者对亚里士多德对友谊的看法持支持的态度。故选A项。
2.How does the author illustrate Aristotle’s three kinds of friendship
A.By giving examples.
B.By offering instructions.
C.By making comparisons.
D.By drawing conclusions.
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段及下文中的“FRIENDSHIPS BASED ON UTILITY...(think:much of...help you)”“FRIENDSHIPS BASED ON PLEASURE...(think:people with whom...carefree time)”以及“FRIENDSHIPS BASED ON VIRTUE...(think:people whom...in life)”可知,作者列举了亚里士多德描述的三种不同的友谊并进行了简单的分析以及举了一些具体的例子,由此可推断,作者是通过举例子来阐述亚里士多德的三种友谊。故选A项。
3.Why can’t friendship based on utility and pleasure last long
A.Because there are always other friends around.
B.Because people only consider their own benefits.
C.Because people’s pursuit is not always the same.
D.Because different people make friends for different reasons.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Yet what one finds useful or pleasurable,is not permanent but is always changing; thus,when the reason for the friendship is done away,the friendship is dissolved.”可知,基于利益和快乐的友谊不是永恒的而是多变的,所以,当人们所追求的利益和快乐消失的时候,友谊也就消失了。故选C项。
4.According to Aristotle,how can one keep a longer friendship
A.Spend face-to-face time with your friends.
B.Keep talking to the ones with shared values.
C.Value the advantages you get out of a friend.
D.Create a pleasant atmosphere for a conversation.
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据尾段中的“And it is the friendships based on value that...lack of conversation...what you put in.”可知,只有基于美德的友谊值得珍惜和拥有,亚里士多德认为缺乏交流破坏了友谊,所以,要想保持长久的友谊,需要的是与有共同价值观的人进行交流。故选B项。

Friendships can have a major impact on your health and happiness,but it’s not always easy to develop or maintain friendships.It’s necessary to understand the importance of social connection in your life and how to meet new friends.
Good friends are good for your health.Friends can help you celebrate good times and provide support during bad times.Friends prevent isolation and loneliness and give you a chance to offer needed companionship,too.Friends also play a significant role in promoting your overall health.Adults with strong social connections have a reduced risk of many significant health problems,including depression,high blood pressure and an unhealthy body mass index(BMI).In fact,studies have found that older adults who have meaningful relationships and social support are likely to live longer than their peers with fewer connections.
Many adults find it hard to develop new friendships or keep up existing friendships.Friendships may take a back seat to other priorities,such as work or caring for children or aging parents.You and your friends may have grown apart due to changes in your lives or interests.Or maybe you’ve moved to a new community and haven’t yet found a way to meet people.Developing and maintaining good friendships takes effort.The enjoyment and comfort friendship can provide,however,makes the investment worthwhile.
So,what are some ways to meet new friends?It’s possible to develop friendships with people who are already in your social network.Think through people you’ve interacted with—even very casually—who made a positive impression.If anyone stands out in your memory as someone you’d like to know better,reach out.Ask mutual friends or acquaintances to share the person’s contact information,or—even better—to reintroduce the two of you with a text,email or in-person visit.Extend an invitation to coffee or lunch.
To meet new people who might become your friends,you have to go to places where others are gathered.Don’t limit yourself to one strategy for meeting people.The broader your efforts,the greater your likelihood of success.Persistence also matters.Take the initiative rather than waiting for invitations to come your way and keep trying.You may need to suggest plans a few times before you can tell if your interest in a new friend is mutual.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了友谊的好处、保持或发展友谊的阻碍以及如何认识新朋友。
5.What does the underlined word “isolation” in the second paragraph probably mean
A.Challenge. B.Relaxation.
C.Separation. D.Determination.
答案 C

6.What is the second paragraph mainly about
A.Friendship can help people live longer.
B.Support from friends during tough times.
C.Some suggestions on how to make friends.
D.Friendship’s positive impacts on people’s health.

解析 段落大意题。根据第二段中心句“Good friends are good for your health.”可知,本段主要讲的是友谊对人的身心健康的积极影响。故选D。
7.How many difficulties in developing and maintaining friendships are mentioned in paragraph 3
A.2. B.3. C.4. D.5.
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据第三段的“Many adults find it hard to...haven’t yet found a way to meet people.”可知,在发展和维持友谊中会有三个困难:友谊也许会让位于工作或家庭需要;生活或兴趣的变化可能导致疏远;搬家可能导致你暂时缺少结识朋友的方法。故选B。
8.Which of the following ways of making friends is mentioned in the passage
A.Sticking to one strategy for meeting people.
B.Waiting for invitations to come your way.
C.Contacting those who ever impressed you a lot.
D.Sharing your personal contact information online.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“If anyone stands out in your memory as someone you’d like to know better...Extend an invitation to coffee or lunch.”可知,文章提到的结交朋友的一种方法是联系那些曾经给你留下深刻印象的人。故选C。

Ⅳ.阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2.5分,共20分)
A
“I feel unlikable,lonely and hopeless,” said Lisa,a bright teenager from a loving home.“It seems that nobody wants to become my friend.What’s wrong with me ”
Like Lisa,many of us experience loneliness.The truth is that all people,no matter what their age or character—even the most outgoing and popular—experience loneliness at least sometimes.It’s healthy and natural to want to be around people who care.After all,we’ve all heard “No man is an island.” That’s true.We all need others in our lives.
Solomon,the wisest man who ever lived,explains that if we want friends,we must be friendly and reach out to others.But it has risks.Because we are often afraid of rejection(拒绝),many of us are unwilling to reach out to others.We take a safer way and wait for others to make friends with us.But if we want friends,we’ve got to get beyond this.
If making friends is your goal as well,you need to consider taking some measures(措施).
Be willing to take the initiative(主动权).If you see someone whom you would like to know,don’t wait for her to make the first move.Get close to her and begin a conversation.Let her know in a non-aggressive(无攻击性的) way that you are interested in being friends with her.
Reach out to those who are lonely.If you spot someone sitting alone at school,go talk to them.Don’t choose friends based on their popularity;often,shyness hides great qualities.
Ask questions.Begin by asking a potential friend about her hobbies or family.Ask open-ended questions to encourage more than just “yes” or “no” answers.For example,don’t ask “Do you have a dog?” Instead,say “So,tell me about your pets.” Avoiding asking “yes” or “no” questions makes your possible friend not end your communication with a one word answer.
1.Why does the author begin the text with Lisa’s worry
A.To set a sad tone.
B.To share Lisa’s pain.
C.To introduce the topic.
D.To teach readers a lesson.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Like Lisa,many of us experience loneliness.The truth is that all people...experience loneliness at least sometimes.”可推知,作者以丽莎的担忧作为文章的开头是为了引出话题。故选C。
2.What can be a risk caused by reaching out to others according to the passage
A.Being refused by others.
B.Putting ourselves in danger.
C.Being treated in a rude way.
D.Losing interest in communicating.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中“But it has risks.Because we are often afraid of rejection(拒绝),many of us are unwilling to reach out to others.”可知,主动与他人接触可能会遇到被别人拒绝的风险。故选A。
3.What can we know from paragraph 5
A.Shy people are hard to talk to.
B.Popular people are often easy-going.
C.Just waiting for chances will waste our time.
D.A proper manner is important in making friends.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Let her know in a non-aggressive(无攻击性的) way that you are interested in being friends with her.”可知,正确的交友方式很重要。故选D。
4.Why does the author suggest not asking “yes” or “no” questions
A.It is considered unfriendly.
B.It will leave a bad first impression.
C.It shows the poor quality of the speaker.
D.It isn’t good for keeping a conversation going.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Avoiding asking ‘yes’ or ‘no’ questions makes your possible friend not end your communication with a one word answer.”可推知,作者建议不要问回答为“是”或“否”之类的问题,因为这种问题不利于保持谈话持续进行。故选D。
B
We all want to be successful in our work.But what happens if our success comes at the risk of losing important friendships If your friends didn’t receive what they were hoping for,your success could make them feel uncomfortable.But does that mean we shouldn’t enjoy our achievements in case we displease someone or that we should feel sorry for being successful while others aren’t
Those of us who value friendships might feel embarrassed for achieving more than our friends.But we deserve(应得) our success,and nothing can take it away.Jealousy(嫉妒) is only natural,but it’s often unreasonable,too.Your success is probably not connected with your friends’ progress,so you shouldn’t feel bad about achieving your goals.If your friends stay unfriendly,don’t be afraid to keep yourself away from them.You are not responsible for their weaknesses.
Meanwhile,your friends may think highly of your recent success while hiding their real feelings.They could be jealous,angry or sad that they are not progressing at the same rate.So,be careful not to talk big.It’s a thin line between pride and overconfidence,and by crossing the line,you may risk losing team support.
Next time you want to boast about your end-of-year win,or high-class new office,consider your listeners.Maybe your friends narrowly missed out on a promotion,or experienced pay cuts,which meant they didn’t get what they were expecting.If your work is on a rising path,it doesn’t mean that’s the case for everyone.
Perhaps a step forward in your work means that you don’t spend as much time with your friends as you used to.If you’ve changed a job or moved to a new office,take the time to stay in touch with old friends.Don’t let that hard work go to waste by losing touch with them.
语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了在获得成功时如何与朋友分享才有利于维持友谊。

8.What does the passage mainly tell us
A.How to avoid hurting a friend.
B.How to enjoy success to the fullest.
C.How to share our success with friends.

Ⅴ.七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
Being honest may not get you a lot of friends,but it will get you the right ones. 1 This is quite the opposite of counterpart that would have you encouraging friends in all things,regardless of what you might feel or observe or know about the challenges of life.Here are three ways to be an authentically positive friend.
Ask questions.
A feature of authentic positivity is a curious mindset,a mentality where you are less locked into “telling it like it is” and more interested in wondering and exploring the possibilities together with your friend. 2 If your friendship has a history of welcome advice-giving,your question could be “Are you looking for ideas,or do you just want me to listen?”
3
“That’s so disappointing” is sometimes the most positive thing you can say to your friend when they are struggling.Resisting the urge to say “It’s all going to work out; don’t worry” shows your friend that you see them in their pain,and that you are available to support them here and now. 4 You can use “yes/and” statements like “What happened at work is so frustrating—and I know how creative you are,so you’ll find a way to move forward.”
Learn to apologize—and ask for an apology.
Every friend misses the mark sometimes.That includes you,too.Being authentic in a friendship means having the freedom to say to a friend,“I’m sorry I hurt you.” It also means being able to say.“Your words/actions hurt me.” 5
A.Name hard truths.
B.Don’t disappoint your friend.
C.Instead,friends should be authentic and positive.
D.So you should develop authentic positivity in your friendship.
E.But that doesn’t mean that you need to focus on the negative all the time.
F.Positive friends ask each other questions,and listen deeply to the answers.
G.Friendships that stand the test of time have room for mistakes,and for repair.
1.答案 D
解析 根据下文“This is quite the opposite of counterpart that would have you encouraging friends in all things,regardless of...challenges of life...”可知,空处应与下文“尽管你知道生活中的挑战,但总是对朋友说鼓励的话”意思相反,即应做一个诚实的人,告诉朋友实话,所以D项符合语境,与上文形成因果关系,且与下文形成对比,同时选项中的authentic positivity呼应本段最后的authentically positive。故选D。
2.答案 F
解析 根据本段小标题“Ask questions.”和空处下文“If your friendship has a history of welcome advice-giving,your question could be ‘Are you looking for ideas,or do you just want me to listen?’”可知,此处是指真正积极的朋友应该互相询问和认真倾听对方的回答,所以选项F切合文意。故选F。
3.答案 A
解析 空处是本段小标题,应是本段主旨句。根据空处下文可知,空处应是指要正视现实,所以选项A“说出残酷的事实”切合文意。故选A。
4.答案 E
解析 根据空处上下文可知,此处是指正视现实也不意味着要一直说负面的事情,所以选项E“但这并不意味着你需要一直关注消极的一面”切合文意。故选E。
5.答案 G
解析 根据上文“Every friend misses the mark sometimes...‘Your words/actions hurt me.’”可知,此处是指真正的友谊应该容许犯错和修复,所以选项G“经得起时间考验的友谊有犯错的余地,也有修复的余地”切合文意。故选G。
Ⅵ.语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,共15分)
How to Deal with Frenemies(亦敌亦友)
Have you ever had a friend who plans to hang out but cancels when a 1. (good) offer comes along Or a buddy who drops everything to lend you a hand but later talks about you behind your back These problematic friends 2. (know) as “frenemies”.

1.答案 better
解析 考查形容词比较级。根据句意及常识可知,此处指“一个更好的邀请”,应用形容词比较级。故填better。
2.答案 are known
解析 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。know与主语These problematic friends是逻辑动宾关系,应用被动语态;句子陈述客观事实,应用一般现在时;主语为复数,be动词应用are。故填are known。
3.答案 that/which
解析 考查定语从句。此处是限制性定语从句,先行词是relationships,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词that或which引导。故填that/which。
4.答案 warmth
解析 考查名词。此处与encouragement作并列主语,应用名词warmth,不可数。故填warmth。
5.答案 but
解析 考查连词。前后句意存在转折关系,应用转折连词but。故填but。
6.答案 on/upon
解析 考查介词。固定搭配have an effect upon/on“对……有影响”。故填on/upon。
7.答案 to fight
解析 考查非谓语动词。ability后常用不定式作后置定语,表示“做某事的能力”。故填to fight。
8.答案 harmful
解析 考查形容词。空后effects是名词,应用形容词作定语;分析语境可知,此处表示“有害的”。故填harmful。
9.答案 depends
解析 考查时态和主谓一致。句子陈述客观事实,应用一般现在时;句子主语是Whether引导的主语从句,谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填depends。
10.答案 controlling

Ⅰ.补句子 析结构
1.Well,we agreed that night that we would meet here again exactly(exact) twenty years from that date and time,no matter what our conditions might be or from what distance we might have to come.(P59 Para.1)
结构分析:此句是复合句,主句是we agreed that night that...,第二个that引导宾语从句,在该从句中含有no matter what引导的让步状语从句。
汉语翻译:反正,那天晚上我们约定,不管日后各自情况如何,不管距离多远,都要在二十年后的同一天、同一时间在这儿再聚。
2.Haven’t you heard from your friend since you left?(P60 Para.2)
结构分析:此句是复合句,since引导时间状语从句,从句用一般过去时,主句用现在完成时。
汉语翻译:你离开后,没有收到过你朋友的消息吗?
3.But I know Jimmy will meet me here if he’s alive,for he always was the truest,staunchest old chap in the world.(P60 Para.3)
结构分析:此句是复合句,I know是主句,后面跟省略了引导词that 的宾语从句,该从句中if引导条件状语从句;句中的for是并列连词,连接表示原因的并列分句。
汉语翻译:但是我知道,只要吉米还活着,他就会来这儿和我见面,因为他一直是这个世界上最真诚、最可靠的老伙计。
4.I came a thousand miles to stand(stand) in this door tonight,and it’s worth it if my old partner turns up.(P60 Para.3)
结构分析:此句是and连接的并列句,第二个分句中的if引导条件状语从句。
汉语翻译:今晚,我从千里之外赶来站在这扇门前,只要我的老朋友出现,这一切就都是值得的。
Ⅱ.研典句 学用法
have sth done
We figured that in twenty years each of us ought to have our destiny worked out and our fortunes made,whatever they were going to be.(P60 Para.1)
我们当时觉得,不管要做什么,二十年的时间足够自己找到出路、挣到钱。
结构分析:此句是复合句,that引导宾语从句,作figured 的宾语,该宾语从句中whatever 引导让步状语从句。 have our destiny worked out and our fortunes made为“have+宾语+宾语补足语”结构。
————————————————————————————————————————
“have+宾语+宾语补足语”结构包括:
have sth done让别人做某事;使某事/物被……
have sb/sth doing sth使某人/某物一直做某事
won’t/can’t have sb doing sth不能容忍某人做某事
have sth to do有某事要做

Ⅱ.阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2.5分,共20分)
A
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 I look for certain qualities of character,especially understanding,honesty and reliability.
Above all else,I look for understanding in a friend.A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling.He is not quick to judge.Instead,he tries to learn from others.He puts himself in the other person’s place,and 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 a 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 experience and learn from each other.A good friend has a good 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 who is understanding,honest,and reliable,I know I’ve found a friend!

Researchers found that those with strong,close bonds(关系) with their friends at age 15 were more likely to be healthy and happy later.Importantly,popularity—defined as lots of people liking you generally,but without bonding with each other closely—wasn’t found to have the same benefit as close friends.“Close friendship strength in mid-adolescence predicted relative increases in self-worth and decreases in anxiety and depressive symptoms by early adulthood,” according to the authors of the study.Popularity actually had the opposite—negative—effect.
The University of Virginia researchers who carried out the study followed the 169 subjects every year for a decade,which means that their data are pretty strong.The scientists weren’t relying on their recall of the types of relationships people had years later; they got data in real time from their subjects as they grew and matured(成熟).
Each year,the subjects spoke to the researchers about their friends—who their best friends were and what their relationships were like with other friends.Through interviews and assessments,they were asked about “anxiety,social acceptance,self-worth and symptoms of depression; teens’ close friends also reported on their friendships and were interviewed,” according to the release.
Then the researchers analyzed the 10 years of data to understand how people handled stress over time.Those who were merely popular did worse on several measures of mental health compared to people with strong high school friendships.
The study shows that being well-liked by a large group of people cannot take the place of forming deep,supportive friendships.These experiences stay with us no matter what happens later.As technology makes it increasingly easy to build a social network of ordinary friends,focusing time and attention on cultivating close connections with a few individuals should be a priority(优先考虑).

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Hey!” the voice called from behind me.“Are you a girl or a duck?” I ignored the comments because I knew they were from the mean(刻薄的) girl,Betsy.I ran to my class,causing my slight limp(跛行) to become even more obvious.Already,I could see that things would be different here.At my old school,I had a group of friends to protect me.However,in this new school,I was on my own.I took my seat in the first row of desks and I was grateful for alphabetic(按字母顺序的) seating.My last name came at the beginning of the alphabet and Betsy’s last name came at the end of it.As the weeks went on,though,I made friends with two girls named Fran and Lisa who sat near me in class.Whenever Betsy made one of her remarks,they told me to ignore her.
Still,I hated that I didn’t walk like everyone else.I was not able to run as fast or as straight as the other kids and I was picked last for teams in PE class.Mostly,though,I really hated it when people like Betsy made negative comments on how I walked.
One day,our teacher asked us to change seats.“Class,” our teacher addressed us one morning,“you’ve been in the same seats for a full semester and you’ve become friendly with the students around you.Now it’s time to change seats and make some new friends.” The class let out a collective moan(抱怨).As she assigned the new seating,Fran,Lisa and I looked at each other and we didn’t want to be separated.And we especially didn’t want to sit anywhere near Betsy.Finally,Betsy sat directly behind me.
I knew this wasn’t going to be good and I soon discovered I was right.Betsy often leaned into my back,“Quack,quack(嘎嘎)!” When I ignored her,she kicked my seat.When that didn’t work,she poked me.This went on daily until one morning I simply refused to go to school.I told Mum what had happened at school.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
My mother sat me down and began to talk.
Then one day I did what my mother taught me and amazing things happened.
第一步 初读获取基本信息
阅读获取文章六要素:who when where what why how
Who?I,Betsy,my friends,my mother,teacher,classmates
When?one day when I was at school
Where?classroom
What?Betsy made rude comments on me and treated me badly at school;I began to hate school and told my mom what had happened.
★两段续写都应是记叙文(体裁),人称是第一人称,时态为一般过去时。
第二步 再读获取情节发展线索
再读深度理解文章,获取文章大意,提取文章细节,获取详尽背景材料,为正确构思铺路。
Everything was 1.different at the new school and I had to face the challenges 2.on my own.A 3.mean girl called Betsy always 4.made fun of me for my slight limp.Luckily,I sat far away from her and made two good friends.One day,we changed the seats and Betsy sat 5.behind me.She bullied(欺负) me more and more.I began to 6. hate school and refused to go to school and I told my mother what had 7.happened at school.
第三步 预测故事,构思情节
紧密承接原文结尾句,注意续写两段之间的衔接。根据每段首句内容,设计问题,构思情节。
Para.1:
Q1:What did my mother teach me
Q2:What was my feeling
Q3:What would I decide to do
妈妈的教导→(change the way you handle those mean people;be kind to others...)→我的反应与想法(surprised;astonished;shake one’s head;disbelief...) →我决定借机尝试妈妈的建议。
Para.2:
Q1:What happened one day?(Design a plot to solve the problem)
Q2:How did I apply my mother’s advice to practice(实践)
Q3:What amazing things happened at last
采纳妈妈的建议(in trouble;offer help;give a hand)→取得成效(moved;become friends)→主旨升华(It is not what happened to you,but how you react to it that matters.)
第四步 组织语言,加工润色
参考范文
My mother sat me down and began to talk.“Look,” she held my hand,“there will always be mean people like Betsy in this world.That is hard to change.But you can change the way you handle them.Have you ever heard of the saying,‘Treat them with kindness.’?” I shook my head.What she said really made me at a loss.“It’s simple.Just show your kindness to the girl now and then.If she drops her pen,pick it up and hand it to her.Things like that.Just be nice to her.”
Then one day I did what my mother taught me and amazing things happened.Our teacher announced seriously that there would be an exam the next morning.As Betsy was not good at study,I offered to help her review.Betsy was surprised but grateful.She said shyly,“You’re so nice.I truly regret making those rude remarks on you.Can we be friends?” I was glad that I had followed my mum’s advice.It was just what I needed,and probably just what Betsy needed,too.Therefore,it is not what happened to you,but how you react to it that matters.
