試題分析：朋友在我們的生活中扮演重要的作用。大多數(shù)人希望他們的朋友永遠在。他們希望友誼天長地久。但是，即使最美好的友誼也可能會結束。當我們的友誼結束是，最好的辦法是忘記痛苦，并努力開始去尋找新的友誼。
小題1:考查動詞及語境的理解。A. hope希望；B. expect期待；C. decide決定；D. prefer更喜歡。根據(jù)Most people hope that their friends will always be there. 可知，這里的意思是：他們希望友誼能夠永遠保持下去。但是hope的用法是hope to do , hope 后不能跟sb/sth to do 形式。expect的用法則是expect sb/sth to do。所以選B。
小題2:考查連詞及語境的理解。A. Unfortunately不幸的是；B. Luckily幸運的是；C. Then那么，然后；D. So所以。 根據(jù)前后的意思可知，他們希望友誼能夠永遠保持下去。不幸的是，即使最好的友誼也可能會結束。所以選A。
小題3:考查名詞及語境的理解。33. A. interest興趣；B. experience經(jīng)歷；C. change變化；D. suggestion建議。隨著時間的推移，許多友誼會因為個性或者生活方式的原因的變化而結束。友誼從有到無也是變化。所以選C。
小題4:考查動詞及語境的理解。A. forgets忘記；B. disappears消失；C. appears出現(xiàn)；D. improves 改進。根據(jù)The friendship was just over.可知，友誼慢慢地失去了重要性，最后就消失了。選B。
小題5:考查動詞及語境的理解。 A. finished結束；B. practiced練習；C. continued 繼續(xù)；D. started開始。前面是我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己認為Alan成了以前的朋友。根據(jù)The friendship was just over.可知：友誼結束了，因為我們見面越來越少。帶入四個選項分析可知，選D。
小題6:考查動詞短語及語境的理解。 A. break down機器等出故障；B. break away 擺脫；C. break off中斷；D. break in插話。分析語境可知意思是：有時友誼會因為意見不合或者搬家而突然中斷。所以選C。 
小題7:考查副詞及語境的理解。A. often經(jīng)常；B. seldom很少；C. always總是；D. never從不。這里以Alice為例，說明友誼的變化。我從城市的一邊搬到另一邊，從那以后，我們就很少通電話，后面也說我們見面也越來越少了。最后我們之間的原因就結束了。所以選 B。
小題8:考查動詞及語境的理解。A. struggling掙扎；B. satisfying滿意；C. pleased高興；D. fed飼養(yǎng)。根據(jù)全文的意思可知，我們的友誼結束是因為我們兩個都忙于新工作。所以選A。
小題9:考查介詞及語境的理解。A. at在；B. by提通過，根據(jù)；C. on關于；D. in在……之內。這里keep in touch with是固定搭配， 保持聯(lián)系。所以選D。
小題10:考查連詞及語境的理解。A. even if即使；B. while當……的時候；C. before 在……之前；D. since自從。 帶入四個選項分析語意可知，我們的友誼結束了以至于即使我回家了也不會給他打電話。選A。
小題11:考查形容詞及語境的理解。A. strange奇怪的；B. true真實的；C. false錯誤的；D. impossible不可能的。根據(jù)前面的意思可知，事實是兩人都保持不變或者變化的方向很相似時，朋友就會保持住。所以選B。
小題12:考查連詞及語境的理解。A. will be將會是；B. is 是；C. will將；D. to be不定式不能單獨做謂語。接前一句的意思，如果他們變了，成長的方式一樣了，友誼很可能就會失去了。If從句是用一般現(xiàn)在時，則主句用一般將來時。lost在這里是形容詞，所以需要用will be lost。 所以選A。
小題13:考查形容詞及語境的理解。A. little很少的；B. some一些；C. any任何；D. no 沒有。 失去友誼當然應該有些許的失落感。所以選B。
小題14:考查動詞及語境的理解。A. thought認為；B. checked檢查；C. carried 攜帶；D. done做。這里是do sth或nothing 變成了被動。所以是nothing can be done。沒有什么可做的了。所以選D。
小題15:考查非謂語動詞及語境的理解。A. to ask for要求；表目的；B. forming構成；C. to build建立；表目的；D. beginning開始。忘記痛苦繼續(xù)去建立新的友誼。move on to do 繼續(xù)去做。所以選C。

Several weeks ago, our headmaster, Mr. Gaudi, told us that our school had been chosen to compete on Smart Aleck—a game show which my best friend Carla and I   16  love. Carla has a good imagination, and I know a lot of history, so we thought we’d be good   17 for the team.

Not everyone has a chance to be a detective（偵探）, but I got one when I was 13 years old. It happened in 1994.
One afternoon, I was walking down the street when I saw my father’s new car. I expected(期望) to see my father in the driver’s seat. But to my surprise, I saw a young woman driving instead, “She has stolen my father’s car,” I thought. So I quickly stopped a taxi and got in. I said to the driver, “Follow that new car in front,” I told him why.
The taxi driver had a car phone, so I asked him to call the police. Soon we heard the sound of a police car. The police told the woman to stop the car using a loudspeaker. The taxi came to a stop, too. I got out right then and said to the woman, “This is not your car. It's my father’s car.”
The woman smiled and said, “Oh. You’re Mr. Johnson’s son, right? I've seen your photo in your father’s office.”
Before I could say one word, the woman explained that she was my father’s new assistant（助手）. My father had asked her to take his computer to the shop to have it repaired. He lent her his car.

Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl, I never dared to ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk around in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I would say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps. I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn’t want to keep him waiting.
When I just got to my office, the secretary(秘書) showed in the man who had asked me for directions. Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight.

閱讀與回答問題
Do you feel lonely when your best friend isn’t around? Of course, yes. Here’s our advice to you—and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes. 
You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime when a best friend isn’t around—maybe because he or she moved to a different school or a different class. You want to have new friends, but how do you make them? Maybe it seems everybody else already has his or her friends. But remember, there’s always room for more friends.
Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you’d like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation (欣賞) to them. Invite someone to play with you or say, “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom. When you’re at break, walk over to kids you want to play with, act friendly, and say “Hi, can I play, too?” or just join in. 
If you have trouble doing this or if you’re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to help ---and pretty soon, you’ll have one, or two, or even more new friends.
You might still miss that special best friend. But when you see each other, you can share something you didn’t have before he or she left. You can introduce him or her to your new friends!
小題1:How do you feel when your best friend isn’t around you according to the passage?
                                                                        
小題2:Why do some kids feel lonely at break according to the writer?
                                                                        
小題3:What is the best way to make friends according to the writer?
                                                                        
小題4:Why do some kids need help from teachers to make friends according to the writer?
                                                                                                                                                
小題5:What should you do if you want to make more friends? (請自擬一句話作答)
