2014届高考英语一轮复习全方位配套训练人教版必修一Unit 1 Friendship阅读理解1
第Ⅰ组
A
When asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves,many put friends ahead of homes,jobs,clothes and cars.
A true friendship carries a long history of experience that determines (确定) who we are and keeps us connected.It is a treasure we should protect.Unfortunately,the better friends you are,the more probably you’ll have disagreements.And the result can be what you don’t want—an end to the relationship.
The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended.First,don’t let your pride get in your way.Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open.Second,apologize when you’re wrong—even if you’ve been wronged.Over the course of a friendship,even the best people make mistakes.Sometimes,it may be best if the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes.When you apologize,give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong.Third,see things from your friend’s point of view (观点).And finally,accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyles change.Making friends can sometimes seem easy.The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the natural ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships.My suggestion:Consider friendship an honor and a gift,and worth the effort to treasure and nurture (培养).

At eighteen years of age,I flew up to San Francisco to meet a pen pal who I had written to for over a year.The first thing we did when we got home was to bake chocolate chip cookies,and our strong ties were formed.From laughing at the burnt cookies,to eating the chocolate chips instead of putting them in the dough (生面团),it was fantastic.We became best friends.Twelve years later,we still reflect on that moment,and laugh with silliness and joy.
Fast forward to 2003,I was in my first month of training in radiation oncology(放射肿瘤学),and scared.I was in a new city,alone,and afraid of having to make a new start.One patient that we were treating used to come into the department with freshly baked goods for everyone once a week with a smile on her face.She was treated with a really tough regimen(疗法) for her cancer,yet she still overcame the pain and exhaustion(精疲力竭) to bake for the department.I once asked her why,and she said it gave her purpose and meaning.
This purpose was far greater for me than a simple cookie.I really didn’t know how to bake,and I told her that.She then invited me to her home for lessons.With her as a guide I learned some of the art of baking.While baking we talked about life,regrets,and dreams.We soon became very close friends.
A few weeks later,her husband came to the department and gave me a large box with a handwritten note.I opened the box.Inside was a Kitchen Aid mixer,and the note saying,“Please remember me when you bake,keep at it and you’ll change the world.” He told me that her cancer had spread.She was in her final stages of life.I cried and cried.It was simply the most generous gift that I had ever received.

Friends play a very important part in everyone’s life.Friendship usually develops during childhood.New friends are made when you progress through school.Those friends that you make as a student can usually last long.Friends influence your development,maturity(成熟)and sense of responsibility(责任).A familiar expression is “You can tell a lot about a person by knowing who his friends are.”Friendship is based on common interests.If you like sports,most of your friends are likely to be athletic(竞技的).If you enjoy reading and shopping,most of your friends do the same.
Some people call you their friends for the wrong reasons.These people are not really friends.They are superficial(表面的)only“friends”on the outside,not the inside where it counts.Superficial friends only want to be your friends if it is to their advantage.True friends are there if you are rich or poor.It is easy to have many so-called “friends” if you are rich.By this time you should be able to separate your friends into the real or the “phoney”.
True friends are most special.They are also difficult to find.You can consider yourself very lucky if you have one true friend.This friend is eager to help you whenever necessary.He or she knows you would do the same for them.A true friend is someone you can talk to about any subject or problem.You and your true friend have good understanding of each other.True friends support you,take your side,and build up your confidence.

What can help you make a fortune in the future?Graduating from a top university might not be enough.A new study from the University of Essex in Britain has shown that the more friends you have in school,the more money you’ll earn later.
The idea that popularity could have a serious impact on one’s earning potential shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise.The researchers noted that if you want to get ahead in life,social skills and networking are easily as powerful as talent and hard work.
“If a person has lots of friends,it means that he or she has the ability to get along with others in all kinds of different situations,” said Xu Yanchun,17,from Nantou High School in Shenzhen,who totally agreed with the recent finding.“Also,friends always help each other.They not only create wider social circles for you but lift your mood when you occasionally feel depressed,” said Xu.She believed that all this helps you “earn a higher salary”.
Maybe that’s why some people think the younger generations are in the age of friendaholism(交友狂症).A woman even complained that the networking website Facebook’s 5,000-friend limit was too low for her large reserve of social contacts.
But what does a friend mean?Should friends be regarded as a form of currency?
“Call me uncool,but I think of a friend as an actual person with whom I have an actual history and whom I enjoy actually seeing.It seems,however,that this is no longer the definition(定义)of ‘friend’,” said Meghan Daum,who works with The Los Angeles Times in the US.
Daum despised (鄙视) the idea that quantity trumps (胜过) quality in the age of friendaholism.She thought the idea of friendship,at least among the growing population of Internet social networkers,was to get as many of not-really-friends as possible.For example,a friend might be someone you might know personally but who could just as easily be the friend of a friend of some other Facebook friends you don’t actually know.
17.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.Making friends is important.
B.Making friends makes you earn more money.
C.Friends give you success.
D.Social skills are important.
18.Which of the following sentences is TRUE?
A.It is surprising that making more money is popular with people.
B.If you want to win in life,social skills are as important as talent and hard work.
C.The young now have friendaholism.
D.Friends do not create your wider social circles but lift your mood when you occasionally feel depressed.
19.What’s the opinion of Xu Yanchun about making friends?
A.Making friends may help you a lot in your life.
B.Making friends can get a lot of money.
C.Making friends can make you work hard.
D.Making friends can improve your ability to work.
20.What’s the author’s attitude?
A.Objective. B.Subjective. C.Neutral. D.Optimistic.
【语篇解读】文章主要介绍了交朋友在生活中的重要性,对人们的工作和生活有很大的帮助。
17.C
主旨大意题。文章介绍了交朋友在你的生活中很重要,对你的工作和生活有很大的帮助。C项的说法很全面,故选C项。
18.B
细节理解题。从第二段的The idea that popularity could have a serious impact on one’s earning potential shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise.可知A项是不正确的;根据第四段的Maybe that’s why some people think the younger generations are in the age of friendaholism(交友狂症).可知C项的说法不正确;D选项中的not...but...意思是“不是……而是……”,而文章第三段中的They not only create wider social circles for you but lift your mood when you occasionally feel depressed...中的not only...but also...意思是“不但……而且……”,故D项说法也不正确;B项从第二段的The researchers noted that if you want to get ahead in life,social skills and networking are easily as powerful as talent and hard work.可看出是正确的。故选B项。
19.A
判断推理题。从文章第三段可推出,答案应该选A项。
20.A
观点态度题。从整篇文章看,作者的态度应该是客观的。objective “客观的”;subjective “主观的”;neutral“中立的”;optimistic “乐观的”。故选A项。
