Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，請將單詞填寫在題號對應的橫線上。
There are good reasons to value our friendships.Some years ago a public-opinion research firm,Roper Starch Worldwide,asked 2007 people to name one or two things that said the most about themselves.Friends far outranked homes jobs, clothes and cars.
“Ironically,” says Brant R.Burleson, professor of communication at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind., “the better friends you are, the more likely you'll face conflicts.” And the outcome can be what you don't want—an end to the relationship.
The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended.
Swallow your pride. It wasn't easy, but that's what Denise Moreland of Hickam Air Force Base in Hawaii did when a friendship turned sour.For nearly four months,Moreland,45,had watched over Nora Huizenga's two young daughters, who were living with their father on the base,while Huizenga,40,completed training as a dental hygienist in Nevada.“I felt honored to be asked to step in,” Moreland says.
“When Huizenga returned at Christmas,” Moreland recalls,“I had so much to tell her, but she never called.”
One daughter had a birthday party, but Moreland wasn't invited. “I felt like I'd been used,” she says.At first, Moreland swore to avoid Huizenga.Then she decided to swallow her pride and let her friend know how she felt. Huizenga admitted that she'd been so worried about being separated from her family that she'd been blind to what her friend had done to help her. Today she says, “I would never have figured out what happened if Denise hadn't called me on it.”
When a friend hurts you, your instinct is to protect yourself.But that makes it harder to solve problems,explains William Wilmot,author of Relational Communication.“Most of us are relieved when differences are brought out in the open.”
Apologize when you're wrong—even if you've also been wronged.But over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. “We don't think clearly when we're arguing,” says Michael Lang,a professional mediator (調(diào)解人) in Pittsburgh. Instead, says Lang, ask: “What's going on? This doesn't make sense.”
See things from your friend's point of view. Sociologists Rebecca Adams Rosemary and Blieszner interviewed 53 adults who each had many friendships lasting decades. “We were curious how these people managed to sustain strong friendships for so long,” says Blieszner. Tolerance is key, the researchers learned.” It's surprising how often a dispute results from a simple misunderstanding,” adds psychotherapist Anne Frenkel.
Accept that friendships change. “Friendships change as our needs and lifestyles change,” Wilmot observes.
Making friends can sometimes seem easy,says Yager.The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the natural ups and downs that affect all relationships.Her suggestion: Consider friendship an honor and a gift,and worth the effort to treasure and nurture.

Answer 1

【答案】valued；important；possibility/chance；Approaches；express；avoid；Tolerate；lead/contribute；aware；making
【解析】我們應當珍視我們的友誼，不要輕易放棄它，文章為此提出了一些修補出現(xiàn)問題的友誼的建議。
（1）根據(jù)第一句“There are good reasons to cherish our friendships”，友誼是要珍惜，重視的。故可填cherished/treasured/valued。
（2）根據(jù)第一段中的“Friends far outranked homes, jobs, clothes and cars”，可知在人們看來，友誼比家，工作，衣服，車子更重要。根據(jù)句意可知填important。
（3）根據(jù)第二段中的“the better friends you are, the more likely you'll face conflicts”，空格填名詞，表示更多的可能性，故填possibility/ chance。
（4）根據(jù)第三段The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended.可知陷入麻煩的友誼是可以修補好的，接下來的幾段都是一些修補友誼的方法，根據(jù)格式可知要大寫，用復數(shù)，故填Approaches。
（5）根據(jù)第六段中的“she decided to swallow her pride and let her friend know how she felt”，可知要“放下自尊，向朋友坦誠地表達你的感受”，根據(jù)句意可知填express。
（6）根據(jù)第八段中的“We don't think clearly when we're arguing”，可知爭論時我們不能清晰地思考，故應避免爭論。故填avoid。
（7）根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段“從朋友的觀點看問題”， Tolerance is key, the researchers learned.寬容是關(guān)鍵，可知要“寬容差異”，根據(jù)格式可知要大寫，用動詞形式，故填Tolerate。
（8）根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段“a dispute results from a simple misunderstanding”可知爭論是有誤解所導致的，因此誤解會導致爭論，lead /contribute to，固定短語，意為導致。
（9）根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“Accept that friendships change”可知“我們要清楚友誼是變化的”，此處有固定短語：be aware of：知道，意識到。
（10）根據(jù)最后一段可知，and worth the effort to treasure and nurture，友誼是值得付出努力的。make efforts努力，worth后加動名詞的主動形式表達被動意義，故填making。
