科目：高中英語 來源：2014屆度江蘇省高一上學(xué)期期中考試英語題 題型：填空題

請(qǐng)認(rèn)真閱讀下列短文，并根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在文后表格的空格處填入最恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。注意：每個(gè)空格填1個(gè)單詞。

  As a saying goes, “If you have a good friend, your joys are doubled and your sorrows are halved”. Friends are a helping hand, a comforting shoulder to lean on, a patient ear to listen to you and most importantly, a warm and loving hug to embrace(擁抱) you. Man is a social animal by nature. We all need friends, as they are there for us when we need support, just as we are there for them whenever they need us. Therefore, it is necessary for you to know how to make friends.

The first step is to open yourself up. If you want to make good friends, you should be able to share your thoughts and feelings with other people first. Only when you share something of yourself with others, can you begin making friends. When your friends open a conversation with you, they are usually expecting you to share information in return. That is to say, when you are in a conversation, you’d better express your own thoughts and feelings. If a conversation is one-sided, the person doing all the talking may think the other person is not interested in what he is saying. So, when talking with your friends, be sure that the conversation is a two-way street.

One of the most important keys to building a solid friendship with other people is to listen to them—really listen. When your friends tell you something that happened to them or complain（埋怨） about a situation, they are usually not looking for agreement but just want to be heard. So don’t try to change their mind or solve their problems, just let them know that you are listening to them.

Respecting your friends is also important to keep your relationships healthy and strong. Looking at your friends while they are talking to you is one way to show your respect, as they will feel that what they are saying is important to you.

Unconditional support and encouragement is one of the things which friends have. True friendship means offering a shoulder when they need it, crying with them when they are sad, and laughing with them when they are happy. Only in this way, can the tree of friendship last for a long time.

The (1) ______ of friendship

Friends make your happiness more and your sadness less.

Friends are always ready to (2) ______ you.

 (3) _____ to make friends

Open yourself up

Share your (4) ______ and feelings with others.

Always respond when your friends are talking to you.

(5) _____ to your friends

Don’t try to (6) ______ their mind or solve their problems, just listen.

(7) _____ your friends

Have (8) ____ contact(接觸) when talking to a friend.

Support and (9) _____ your friends

Offer a shoulder when your friends are in (10) ______ .

Cry with them when they are sad, and laugh with them when they are happy.

閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。

Dear Ari,

     As you sleep in my arms, I'm amazed at how light you feel. I stare at your tiny body, so fragile that a sudden wind could lift you up into the air. I love this feeling of protecting you and dreaming of all I have in store for you.

     I intend to bring you up to be brave and successful in an often difficult society. That's why your mommy and I have named you Ari, which means "lion". It's our hope that you will grow strong and eagerly grasp every opportunity to do well for yourself and others.

     Before you came into the world, we had spent months imagining what you'd be like. Would you be a boy or a girl? Would you look like Mommy, Daddy or your elder brothers? Anyway, we would find out soon.

     Finally your mother's labor came. And several hours later, we met the first time. I held you high up in the air. I then was able to cut your umbilical cord (臍帶) and put you in your mother's arms. She still had enough energy to radiate the love while she pressed you to her face.

     And here we are tonight. As I hold you close, you sleep so peacefully. I press my ear to your chest and hear your strength. I am listening to the first beats of a lion's heart. Welcome to the world, Ari.

      Love,

      Daddy
