Question

【題目】Being a good friend isn’t always easy, but taking the time to develop a lasting friendship is worth the effort. As the years pass, you will realize that each friendship you keep is priceless. 【1】To be a good friend and deepen a friendship, just follow these steps.

Keep your promises.

Don’t ever make a promise that you can’t keep. If you say you’ll hang out with a friend and an unexpected situation arises, explain the situation. Give your friend a gift and tell him or her you are sorry. Nobody is perfect, and it’s okay if you break a promise once in a blue moon. 【2】__

Apologize when you’ve made a mistake.

【3】 Though your friend won’t be happy that you made a mistake, he or she will be very pleased that you admit it instead of just pretending that nothing is wrong.

【4】

To be truly supportive, you will have to be able to watch out for your friend when he/she is having a difficult time. If you sense that your friend is getting into some trouble, help him or her away from the situation by not being afraid to speak up about it.

Give your friend some space when he or she needs it.

Part of being supportive means supporting the fact that your friend won’t always want to spend time with you. Learn to step back and give your friend space. 【5】 ___ Don’t be jealous (嫉妒的) if your friend has lots of other friends.

A. However, don’t make it a regular thing.

B. Help your friend deal with his or her struggles.

C. Learn to forgive (原諒)your friend and move forward.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】D

【2】A

【3】E

【4】B

【5】F

【解析】

試題分析：要想擁有好朋友，你本身得是（別人的）好朋友。本文就如何成為一個好朋友提出了幾點建議。

【1】D 本處“要想擁有好朋友，你本身得是個（別人的）好朋友”，與下句中的“To be a good friend”呼應，符合語境，故選D。

【2】A 上句“偶爾違背諾言沒關(guān)系”，本處轉(zhuǎn)折“然而不要讓違背諾言成為經(jīng)常的事情”，符合語境，連接自然。故選A。

【3】E 本段講述了“有錯要承認”，本處“如果你想讓朋友信任你，就不要表現(xiàn)得你是個完人似的”引出話題，符合語境。故選E。

【4】B 本段講述了朋友遇到困難時你要給與幫助。故用B項作小標題恰當。

【5】F 本段講述了要給朋友一定的個人空間。故本處“如果你的朋友想獨處一會兒或者和別人出去，你要理解”符合語境。故選F。

【名師點撥】

在做七選五時一定要注意and/but/so/besides/however/furthermore/moreover/in addition/what’s more等詞匯、固定結(jié)構(gòu)的運用。它們連接了上下文，起著承上起下的作用。像but（但是）、however（然而），表示轉(zhuǎn)折，這說明前后的內(nèi)容相反或相對。把握住這一點，做起題來就會得心應手。17.【2】A上句“偶爾違背諾言沒關(guān)系”，本處轉(zhuǎn)折“然而不要讓違背諾言成為經(jīng)常的事情”，符合語境，連接自然。故選A。
