Question

 Friendship is one of the basic bonds between human beings. While the characteristics of friendship might vary from one country to another, people from all cultures not only enjoy friends but need them.

  Many studies have shown that teenagers who have no friends often suffer from psychological disorders. It has been shown that teenagers, perhaps more than any other age group, need com?panionship and a sense of belonging. The negative consequences of loneliness have also been observed among the elderly. The death of a spouse often leaves a widow or a widower totally bereft. If,however, they are surrounded by friends and relatives and if they are able to articu?late their feelings，they are more likely to recover from their grief.

  "No man is an island." In other words, we are all parts of society. We all need the love,admiration，respect and moral support of other people. If we are fortunate, our friends will pro?vide us with all of these necessary aspects of life.

  As most people observe, there are many levels of friendship. The degree or intensity of friendship varies depending on the personality of the individuals involved and the context of the relationships. Extroverts enjoy being surrounded by many people whereas introverts are perhaps content with fewer but more intense friendships.

  Everyone is not equally open with all their friends. The degree of intimacy is determined by many factors. Close friends can be formed at any stage in one's life but they are usually very rare. Not very many people have more than a few really close friends. Irrespective of the level of intimacy，all friendships are based on reciprocity，honesty and a certain amount of love and affection.

Answer 1

B篇主要講述了友誼的重要作用。無(wú)論來(lái)自哪個(gè)種族與國(guó)家，每個(gè)人都需要友誼，因?yàn)槊總�(gè)人都需要愛(ài)、賞識(shí)、尊重和他人精神上的支持。

5. C邏輯推理題A和B兩項(xiàng)過(guò)于片面，作者只是拿兩種人舉例而已，并非說(shuō)友誼只對(duì)這兩種人有影響，所以D也是錯(cuò)誤的。第二段實(shí)際上是對(duì)第一段最后一句話的事實(shí)舉例，故選C。

6. C邏輯推理題從后一句"In other words,we are all parts of society."的解釋可知，答案為（：。

7. D意圖揣摩題通過(guò)最后一段"Close friends can be formed at any stage in one's life but they are usually very rare."可以發(fā)現(xiàn)作者認(rèn)為朋友易得,而交心的朋友難得。

8. C詞義猜測(cè)題通過(guò)對(duì)"Irrespective of the level of intimacy, all friendships are based on reciprocity, honesty and a certain amount of love and affection."這句話的分析，可以發(fā)現(xiàn)前后部分為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故選C。 regardless of 表"不管"、"不顧"之意。
