(2025·嘉兴高一下期中)
If you feel that making friends as a kid is easy, you’re right.“They have a break between lessons and gym classes.They have more time to get along with each other,” says Marisa G.Franco, an expert at the University of Maryland.However, it’s not the case for adults. Even though they see their workmates every day, they still find it never easy to be friends with them.
In the US, for example, a 2021 study by the American Enterprise Institute, found that the number of adults who said they had no close friends had increased four times since 1990, going from 3 percent to 12 percent.“We’ve never been more disconnected,” says psychologist (心理学家) Jody Carrington.Although adults spend time together from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm and even late into the night, their busy work pattern limits communication to work-related content, and after work, they immediately go back to homes, leaving no extra energy to have unplanned communication to develop further friendship.
Research by Brigham Young University psychologist Julianne Holt-Lunstad has shown that loneliness is a big threat (威胁) to long life, same as smoking 15 cigarettes a day or being a heavy drinker.People who are lonely are more likely to have serious diseases.On the other side, healthy friendships can help us a lot, doing better with stress and living happier and longer.Besides, happiness is contagious.Harvard experts found that when a person becomes happy, his or her friends living within 1.6 kilometers are also 25 percent more likely to become happier.
So, making friends is more important than we think.You may think that making friends is an inborn skill and doesn’t need to be taught.It’s not the case.We can improve our ability to connect with others if we try.Some experts provide advice to make it easier to find connection.
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要分析了成年人不容易建立友谊的原因,并讲述了交朋友的重要性以及如何建立联系。
1.What makes an adult difficult to be friends with others according to 　paragraph 2
A.Bad experiences in the past.
B.No breaks in the workplace.
C.Worry about being deeply hurt.
D.No chance for deeper friendship.
解析　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Although adults spend time...to develop further friendship.”可知,成年人在上班期间仅沟通工作内容,下班后会立即回家,没有多余的精力来发展友谊,由此可推测出,成年人没有机会来发展进一步的友谊。故选D项。
√
2.What does the author want to express in paragraph 3
A.The ways to lead a happy life.
B.The results of getting into bad habits.
C.The importance of staying connected.
D.The relationship between happiness and habits.
解析　段落大意题。根据第三段中的“Research by Brigham Young University psychologist...living happier and longer.”可知,孤独对长寿有害,而健康的友谊对人们有益,作者想要表达的是与人建立联系非常重要。故选C项。
√
3.What does the underlined word “contagious” in paragraph 3 mean
A.Confusing. B.Powerful.
C.Awkward. D.Unique.
解析　词义猜测题。根据画线词下文“Harvard experts found that...more likely to become happier.”可知,快乐可以传染别人,由此可推测出,contagious意为“有感染力的”,与powerful意思接近。故选B项。
√
4.What will be talked about in the following part of the passage
A.Stories of successful friendships among workmates.
B.More research findings on the advantages of friendship.
C.Recommendations to improve skills for making friends.
D.The influence of different personalities on making friends.
解析　推理判断题。根据文章最后一句“Some experts provide advice to make it easier to find connection.”可知,文章最后提到一些专家提供了建立联系的建议,由此可推测出,接下来应该具体讲述提升交友技巧的建议。故选C项。
