A
One of the biggest complaints I hear from people is that their friends just aren’t there for them.More than that，sometimes friends are downright rude or even mean.You can’t change people，but you can surround yourself with more positive people.Here are some benefits that spending time with positive friends can provide.
With positive friends，you don’t need to beg for help when you need it because chances are that they will be there for you without asking.Positive individuals want others to be happy，and will go out of their way to help you when you’re feeling down.As ’s Guide to Stress states，“Ideal friendships provide support when you’re down，fun when you’re up，wisdom when you’re lost.”
Compare that to toxic friends，who might snipe at(抨击) you or even laugh at you behind your back.Negative people celebrate the downfall of others，and as a result you’ll end up feeling worse about yourself or the situation you’re dealing with.Friends who aren’t positive will add to whatever amount of stress you are feeling.
Your positive friends will not only help you recover from negative hits you take in life，but they will also inspire you to be the best you can be.For example，perhaps you always wanted to be a writer.The negative people in your life will probably tell you all the reasons why you won’t succeed.But who needs that Chances are you have already gone over the reasons why you might fail and this is what has prevented you from trying.But with positive people in your life，you’ll feel more comfortable sharing these types of goals because your friends will give you the emotional push you need to go after what you want in life.
You naturally attract the kinds of friends who are most like you.So if you’re a downer，you’ll probably find that negative people come to you.The same is true for being positive. The more you are able to keep a positive attitude，the more like-minded people you’ll attract in return.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了我们应该和积极的朋友共度时光，以及这样做的好处。
1．Who are probably your true friends according to the passage
A．Those who you can change gradually.
B．Those who will stay with you when you’re in need.
C．Those who will not turn to you whenever in trouble.
D．Those who are always polite and never waste anything.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段首句、第二段中的“With positive friends，you...when you’re feeling down.”以及“Ideal friendships provide support...when you’re lost.”可知，理想的友谊会在你情绪低落时提供支持，那些在你需要的时候陪在你身边的人可能是你真正的朋友。故选B。
2．Why does the writer mention the statement of ’s Guide to Stress
A．To emphasize the importance of friendships.
B．To point out everyone may meet with difficulties.
C．To explain to us what ideal friendships are in reality.
D．To compare the differences between success and failure.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“As ’s Guide to Stress states，’Ideal friendships...when you’re lost.’”可知，作者提到’s Guide to Stress的话是为了向我们解释在现实中，理想的友谊是什么样子的。故选C。
3．What does the writer intend to tell us by saying “The same is true for being positive”？
A．It is true that everyone is positive in life.
B．If you are positive，you’ll attract positive friends.
C．The negative people don’t like the positive ones.
D．The positive people would like to stay with everyone.
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“You naturally attract the kinds of friends who are most like you.”以及画线句前后文可知，你必然吸引那些最像你的朋友，如果你是消极的，你会吸引消极的人，而你越积极，就越能吸引志同道合的人，由此可推知作者通过说“积极也是如此”想要告诉我们的是，如果你是积极的，你会吸引积极的朋友。故选B。
4．Which of the following is conveyed in this passage
A．A friend in need is a friend indeed.
B．Old friends and old wine are the best.
C．Positive friends can benefit you a lot.
D．Friendship is love with understanding.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。通读全文尤其根据第一段尾句、第二段及第四段首句“Your positive friends will...the best you can be.”可知，文章说明了积极的朋友会让你受益匪浅。故选C。
B(此篇精读)
Sometimes our friends’ behaviour can make us angry；sometimes we can see changes they need to make—but how do we tell them Are there any ways to make difficult conversations easier
It’s important to have evidence(证据) that there is a problem.Evidence that can be agreed on makes it easier for other people to recognize problems.Once you have evidence，it’s important to stress how it influences you and others.Psychologist Andrea Bonior suggests framing problems with “I”．Saying “I feel hurt that you spend less time with me” is better than “You never spend time with me！”．
Staying calm is of great importance.Being in tension might lead you to act badly and cause an argument.Bonior recommends you should accept that the conversation could make you anxious.If you think about this yourself，it can help you focus on positive results.If you recognize your anxiety to your friend，you will show a more human side.Another psychologist，Laura Brennan，points out how it’s important that we let go of our self-respect and don’t focus on the need to be proved right.This can help reduce tension.
Listening to the other person and asking questions can lower the potential for disagreement.Many experts recommend planning your words，so that you can say things in a way that avoids disagreement.However，Bonior is against overplanning as this can stop you being flexible enough to sincerely follow and join in the discussion.
Being patient is necessary.Complicated problems are unlikely to be solved with one conversation.Consider what is possible in one discussion，and that it may be harder than you thought.This will help you to set practical goals for what you can achieve.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了如何与朋友进行困难的对话，包括准备证据、正确表达自己的感受、保持冷静、倾听对方的观点以及保持耐心等。
5．What does the underlined word “framing” in paragraph 2 mean
A．Reminding. B．Expressing.
C．Ignoring. D．Escaping.
答案 B
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线单词下一句“Saying ‘I feel hurt that you spend less time with me’ is better than ‘You never spend time with me！’．”可知，后文是对画线单词所在句的解释，指出用“我……”这样的句式说明问题更有效，可推知画线词所在句表示心理学家Andrea Bonior建议用“我”来表述问题，画线单词与B项“表达”意义一致。故选B。
6．Why should we keep calm in face of tension
A．To avoid an argument.
B．To respect ourselves.
C．To make ourselves anxious.
D．To focus on right things.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Staying calm is of great importance.Being in tension might lead you to act badly and cause an argument.”可知，保持冷静可以避免引发争吵。故选A。
7．What can we learn from paragraph 4
A．Overplanning will cause argument.
B．Bonior supports overplanning words.
C．Argument will disappear by listening.
D．Many experts suggest planning words.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Many experts recommend planning your words”可知，许多专家建议规划你的措辞。故选D。
8．What is the best title for the text
A．Good Qualities of a True Friend
B．Great Power of Communication
C．Effective Ways to Reduce Tension
D．Talking to Solve Friendship Problems
答案 D
解析 标题归纳题。根据文章第一段“Sometimes our friends’ behaviour...how do we tell them Are there any ways to make difficult conversations easier？”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述的是如何让困难的对话变得更容易，从而解决友谊的问题。故选D。
[词汇积累] 1．anxious adj.焦虑的，担心的；渴望的，急切的→anxiety n．焦虑，忧虑；令人焦虑的事 2．prove vt.证明，证实 3．overplan v．过度规划 [句式分析] Many experts recommend planning your words，so that you can say things in a way that avoids disagreement. 分析：so that 引导目的状语从句，该从句中还有一个that 引导的限制性定语从句，修饰先行词way，that在定语从句中作主语。 翻译：许多专家建议规划你的措辞，这样你就可以用一种避免分歧的方式说话。

One of the biggest complaints I hear from people is that their friends just aren’t there for them.More than that，sometimes friends are downright rude or even mean.You can’t change people，but you can surround yourself with more positive people.Here are some benefits that spending time with positive friends can provide.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了我们应该和积极的朋友共度时光，以及这样做的好处。
Ⅲ.主题语篇阅读
With positive friends，you don’t need to beg for help when you need it because chances are that they will be there for you without asking.Positive individuals want others to be happy，and will go out of their way to help you when you’re feeling down.As ’s Guide to Stress states，“Ideal friendships provide support when you’re down，fun when you’re up，wisdom when you’re lost.”
Compare that to toxic friends，who might snipe at(抨击) you or even laugh at you behind your back.Negative people celebrate the downfall of others，and as a result you’ll end up feeling worse about yourself or the situation you’re dealing with.Friends who aren’t positive will add to whatever amount of stress you are feeling.
Your positive friends will not only help you recover from negative hits you take in life，but they will also inspire you to be the best you can be.For example，perhaps you always wanted to be a writer.The negative people in your life will probably tell you all the reasons why you won’t succeed.But who needs that Chances are you have already gone over the reasons why you might fail and this is what has prevented you from trying.But with positive people in your life，you’ll feel more comfortable sharing these types of goals because your friends will give you the emotional push you need to go after what you want in life.
You naturally attract the kinds of friends who are most like you.So if you’re a downer，you’ll probably find that negative people come to you.The same is true for being positive. The more you are able to keep a positive attitude，the more like-minded people you’ll attract in return.
1.Who are probably your true friends according to the passage
A.Those who you can change gradually.
B.Those who will stay with you when you’re in need.
C.Those who will not turn to you whenever in trouble.
D.Those who are always polite and never waste anything.
细节理解题。根据第一段首句、第二段中的“With positive friends，you...when you’re feeling down.”以及“Ideal friendships provide support...when you’re lost.”可知，理想的友谊会在你情绪低落时提供支持，那些在你需要的时候陪在你身边的人可能是你真正的朋友。故选B。
解析
√
2.Why does the writer mention the statement of ’s Guide to Stress
A.To emphasize the importance of friendships.
B.To point out everyone may meet with difficulties.
C.To explain to us what ideal friendships are in reality.
D.To compare the differences between success and failure.
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“As ’s Guide to Stress states，’Ideal friendships...when you’re lost.’”可知，作者提到’s Guide to Stress的话是为了向我们解释在现实中，理想的友谊是什么样子的。故选C。
解析
√
3.What does the writer intend to tell us by saying “The same is true for being positive”？
A.It is true that everyone is positive in life.
B.If you are positive，you’ll attract positive friends.
C.The negative people don’t like the positive ones.
D.The positive people would like to stay with everyone.
√
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“You naturally attract the kinds of friends who are most like you.”以及画线句前后文可知，你必然吸引那些最像你的朋友，如果你是消极的，你会吸引消极的人，而你越积极，就越能吸引志同道合的人，由此可推知作者通过说“积极也是如此”想要告诉我们的是，如果你是积极的，你会吸引积极的朋友。故选B。
解析
4.Which of the following is conveyed in this passage
A.A friend in need is a friend indeed.
B.Old friends and old wine are the best.
C.Positive friends can benefit you a lot.
D.Friendship is love with understanding.
推理判断题。通读全文尤其根据第一段尾句、第二段及第四段首句“Your positive friends will...the best you can be.”可知，文章说明了积极的朋友会让你受益匪浅。故选C。

B(此篇精读)
Sometimes our friends’ behaviour can make us angry；sometimes we can see changes they need to make—but how do we tell them Are there any ways to make difficult conversations easier
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了如何与朋友进行困难的对话，包括准备证据、正确表达自己的感受、保持冷静、倾听对方的观点以及保持耐心等。
It’s important to have evidence(证据) that there is a problem.Evidence that can be agreed on makes it easier for other people to recognize problems.Once you have evidence，it’s important to stress how it influences you and others.Psychologist Andrea Bonior suggests framing problems with “I”.Saying “I feel hurt that you spend less time with me” is better than “You never spend time with me！”.
Staying calm is of great importance.Being in tension might lead you to act badly and cause an argument.Bonior recommends you should accept that the conversation could make you anxious.If you think about this yourself，it can help you focus on positive results.If you recognize your anxiety to your friend，you will show a more human side.Another psychologist，Laura Brennan，points out how it’s important that we let go of our self-respect and don’t focus on the need to be proved right.This can help reduce tension.
Listening to the other person and asking questions can lower the potential for disagreement.Many experts recommend planning your words，so that you can say things in a way that avoids disagreement. However，Bonior is against overplanning as this can stop you being flexible enough to sincerely follow and join in the discussion.
Being patient is necessary.Complicated problems are unlikely to be solved with one conversation.Consider what is possible in one discussion，and that it may be harder than you thought.This will help you to set practical goals for what you can achieve.
5.What does the underlined word “framing” in paragraph 2 mean
A.Reminding. B.Expressing.
C.Ignoring. D.Escaping.
词义猜测题。根据画线单词下一句“Saying ‘I feel hurt that you spend less time with me’ is better than ‘You never spend time with me！’.”可知，后文是对画线单词所在句的解释，指出用“我……”这样的句式说明问题更有效，可推知画线词所在句表示心理学家Andrea Bonior建议用“我”来表述问题，画线单词与B项“表达”意义一致。故选B。
