【解析】

本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要介紹了日常生活中我們應(yīng)該如何處理與朋友相處時(shí)的難題。

【1】考查段尾句。根據(jù)空前“Friendships can be sources of joy and sources of sorrow. There isn’t exactly a rule book on what to do when things get tense or bad.(友誼可以帶來(lái)歡樂(lè)也可以帶來(lái)悲傷。在事情變得緊張或不好的時(shí)候，并沒(méi)有什么規(guī)則可循)”可知，G項(xiàng)（以下是專家提出的解決常見(jiàn)關(guān)系難題的技巧）能夠承接上文。該選項(xiàng)中的relationship difficulties與前一句的things get tense or bad是相關(guān)表達(dá)。故選G項(xiàng)。

【2】考查段尾句。根據(jù)空前“we don’t have formal contracts with friends where we’ve agreed to never disappoint each other. Therefore if you bring a fantasy about what the ideal friend will do in any situation to a relationship,(朋友之間沒(méi)有正式的合同來(lái)保證朋友之間不會(huì)讓彼此失望。因此，如果你幻想著理想的朋友在任何情況下都應(yīng)該做出合適的舉動(dòng))”可知，D項(xiàng)（你會(huì)感到失望的）能夠承接上文。該選項(xiàng)表示的是幻想的結(jié)果。故選D項(xiàng)。

【3】考查段尾句。根據(jù)空前“Maybe one friend is going through a breakup and needs extra support.　It’s also possible another friend simply has more to discuss at any given time.(也許一個(gè)朋友遭受著分手的痛苦，需要支持。也許你的另一個(gè)朋友有更多的事情需要討論)”可知，F項(xiàng)（在這樣的時(shí)候，重要的是你要學(xué)會(huì)成為一個(gè)更好的傾聽(tīng)者）能夠承接上文。該選項(xiàng)中的these指的是前面所舉的情況。故選F項(xiàng)。

【4】考查段落標(biāo)題。本段主要說(shuō)明與朋友交往時(shí)出現(xiàn)的一些問(wèn)題，朋友間會(huì)彼此嫉妒。根據(jù)另外兩個(gè)小標(biāo)題“Broken promises”和“when things feel unbalanced”可知，小標(biāo)題是在闡述出現(xiàn)的問(wèn)題，而不是提出一些建議。本題干擾項(xiàng)為C項(xiàng)，但是根據(jù)本段內(nèi)容“當(dāng)您星期一早上登錄Facebook時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)您的朋友在沒(méi)有您的情況下進(jìn)行了一次周末度假時(shí)，你會(huì)感覺(jué)不舒服。”可知，A項(xiàng)（感覺(jué)被遺忘）能夠與本段的話題內(nèi)容相符。故選A項(xiàng)。

【5】考查段尾句。根據(jù)空前“Then find someone else to talk to — maybe, a family member, or a close friend (not one who went on the trip) — to explain how you feel. If you do make conversations,(然后找其他人——也許是家人，或者是親密的朋友（不是去旅行的人）——來(lái)解釋你的感受。如果你真的會(huì)說(shuō)話)”可知，E項(xiàng)（你可能會(huì)想到你與朋友之間發(fā)生了什么以及如何去應(yīng)對(duì)）能夠承接上文。此處表示“你找一個(gè)人談一下會(huì)產(chǎn)生的效果”。故選E項(xiàng)。
