One type of friends is the type I call the “football mom friend”. My neighbor Sally is a good example. We both have kids who play football in a football club, and someone has to take them to practice and pick them up. Sally and I and two other mothers take turns to do this. We meet sometimes and have tea and talk about what our kids are doing, but those are the only times that we meet each other. I enjoy being with these women, but we don’t do anything else together.
Another type is called the “hobby friend”. That’s the person you share an interest or a hobby with. Michael and Cater, who are brothers, are a good example of this type. We’re all in a bird watching club. Every few weekends the members of the club go on a trip to watch different kinds of birds. There’s nothing romantic（浪漫的）about my relationship with Michael and Cater, of course. We just share interest in birds.
Then there’s the “other half of the couple” type of friends. Jim is married to Rose, a friend that I’ve known since college. When Rose married Jim, I realized that I would have to be Jim’s friend if I want to continue to be Rose’s. Jim and I don’t share so many interests, but we do have a friendly relationship.
小题1:What does the first paragraph tell us about?
| A．We need true friends in our lifetime. |
| B．We have few best friends in our lifetime. |
| C．We should make new friends. |
| D．We must be friendly to all our friends. |
| A．Sally. | B． Michael. | C． Jim. | D． Rose. |
| A．Finally the writer agrees with her grandmother. |
| B．Michael and Cater both fall in love with the writer. |
| C．The writer herself sometimes takes her kid to the football club. |
| D．Sally and the writer are close friends. |
| A．2. | B． 3. | C． 4. | D．5 |
| A．the writer made friends with Jim only because of Rose |
| B．Jim was the writer’s good friend at college |
| C．Rose didn’t want the writer to be a friend of her husband |
| D．the writer made friends with Rose because of Jim |
答案
小题1:B
小题2:D
小题3:C
小题4:C
小题5:A
解析
试题分析：本文讲述的是除了我们认为的好朋友之外的三种不同类型的朋友。
小题1:B 推理题。根据第一段2,3,4行For a long time I thought this was true. However, I’ve now discovered my grandmother was only half right. Maybe we do only make a few “best” friends in our lifetime, but those aren’t the only people that we can call friends.可知在我们的一生中真正能称为我们的好朋友的人是很少的。故B正确。
小题2:D 推理题。根据文章最后一段第一行Then there’s the “other half of the couple” type of friends. Jim is married to Rose, a friend that I’ve known since college.可知JIM和Rose结婚了，而Rose是我从大学开始以来的好朋友，所以我知道要维持和Rose的友谊，必修要和Jim做朋友了。可知作者认为Rose是她真正的好朋友。故D正确。
小题3:C 推理题。根据文章第2段前3行We both have kids who play football in a football club, and someone has to take them to practice and pick them up. Sally and I and two other mothers take turns to do this.可知他们的孩子都参加了足球俱乐部，她们要经常带孩子去踢球，再去接他们回来。她们几个母亲轮流做这件事情，作者有时也要接孩子们的。故C正确。
小题4:C 细节题。在第一段里作者提及了一种真正的朋友，第二段里提及的一起接孩子的足球俱乐部的朋友，第三段里提及的是有共同的爱好的朋友，最后一段提及的是自己最好的朋友的另外一半也是自己的朋友。所以一共提及了4类朋友。故C正确。
小题5:A 推理题。根据文章最后一段When Rose married Jim, I realized that I would have to be Jim’s friend if I want to continue to be Rose’s. Jim and I don’t share so many interests, but we do have a friendly relationship.可知作者把Jim当成朋友，完全是因为Rose的原因。故A正确。

I couldn’t help staring at him, I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world, I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn’t allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job.
Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable. “Charge it to me” was all he said.
What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either, then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.

| D．Hurt and disappointed. |

| B．he felt no pity for the old gentleman |
| C．he considered the old man dishonest |
| D．he expected someone else to pay for the old man |
| A．wealth is more important than anything else. |
| B．Helping others is easier said than done. |

He said, “I am going to this $20 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He crumpled up (揉皱) the 20-dollar bill. He then asked, “Who wants it?” Still the hands were in the air.
“Well”, he replied,“ I do this ?” And he dropped it on the and started to step on it with his shoes. He picked it up. Now it was crumpled and .
“Now, who wants it?” Still the hands went into the air.
“My friends, we have all learned a very lesson. No matter what I did to the , you still want it because it doesn’t decrease in . It is still worth $20, with we can buy what we need.
Many times in our lives, we are , and trampled underfoot by the decision we and the circumstances that come our way. We feel we were worthless. But no matter what has happened or what may happen to us, you will never your value. Dirty or clean, you are still priceless to those who do love you. The worth of our lives is determined not by we do or who we know, but by who we are. You are . Don’t ever forget it.”
If you this lesson in mind, it will help you to again when you fall. Each time it makes you grow much stronger.

That night I wrote a short sad poem about broken dreams and mailed it to the Capri’s Weekly newspaper. To my astonishment, they published it and sent me two dollars. I was a published and paid writer. I showed it to my teacher and fellow students. They laughed. “Just plain dumb luck,” the teacher said. I tasted success. I’d sold the first thing I’d ever written. That was more than any of them had done and if it was just dumb luck, that was fine with me.
During the next two years I sold dozens of poems, letters, jokes and recipes. By the time I graduated from high school, with a C minus average, I had scrapbooks filled with my published work. I never mentioned my writing to my teachers, friends or my family again. They were dream killers and if people must choose between their friends and their dreams, they must always choose their dreams.
I had four children at the time, and the oldest was only four. While the children slept, I typed on my ancient typewriter. I wrote what I felt. It took nine months, just like a baby.
A month later Crying Wind, the title of my book, became a best seller, was translated into fifteen languages and Braille and sold worldwide. I appeared on TV talk shows. I traveled from New York to California and Canada on promotional tours. My first book also became required reading in native American schools in Canada.
People ask what college I attended, what degrees I had and what qualifications I have to be a writer. The answer is: “None.” I just write. I’m not a genius. I’m not gifted and I don’t write right. To all those who dream of writing, I’m shouting at you: “Yes, you can. Yes, you can. Don’t listen to them.” I don’t write right but I’ve beaten the odds. Writing is easy, it’s fun and anyone can do it. Of course, a little dumb luck doesn’t hurt.
小题1:Why did many students laugh after hearing what the writer said?
| A．Because they didn’t like him |
| B．Because they wished he could be successful as a writer |
| C．Because their teacher laughed, too |
| D．Because they felt it impossible for him to succeed |
| A．he had become a famous writer |
| B．he had made progress in his studies. |
| C．his classmates and teachers changed their attitudes towards him |
| D．he decided he wouldn’t become a writer |
| A．The characters in his story. | B．His teacher. |
| C．His early experience. | D．His parents. |
| A．It is difficult for a person, who cares about what others say, to succeed. |
| B．It is important for a person to tell others what he wants to do. |
| C．It is necessary for a person, who wants to succeed, to take others’ advice. |
| D．It is impossible for an ordinary person to be a writer in the future. |
| A．A famous writer |
| B．I Hate My Classmates and Teachers |
| C．I Never Write Right |
| D．A Genius Can Be a Writer |
You probably don"t know Mark, but you might be lucky enough to know someone just like him. He"s been the heart and soul of the office for a couple of years combining great professional skills with a sweet nature. He just wants to do his job, and to do it superbly well. And now he"s moving on to an exciting new professional opportunity. It sounds like it could be the chance of a lifetime, and we"re genuinely, sincerely pleased for him. But that doesn"t make it any easier to say goodbye to a dear friend and trusted colleague.
Life has a way of throwing these curve balls at us. Just when we start to get comfortable with a person, a place or a situation. A terrific neighbor moves away. Someone in the family graduates. A child finds new love and loyalties through marriage. The family"s principle bread-winner is laid off.
But how do we do that? A friend of mine who works for the government once told me that the answer to life"s problems can be summed up in four words: "Go with the flow."
"It"s like surfing," Chris explained. "You can"t organize the ocean. Waves just happen. You ride them where they take you, then you paddle back out there and catch the next one. Sure, you"re always hoping for the perfect wave where you can get. But mostly you just take them the way they come.
I"m not exactly sure, but I think Chris was saying that life is a series of events—both good and bad. There will always be life-influencing factors over which you have no control. That doesn"t mean you don"t keep trying to make all your dreams come true. It just means that when things come up that aren"t exactly in your plan, you work around them—and then you move on. Of course, some bumps along the road of life are easier to take than others. A rained-out picnic, for example, is easier to cope with than the sudden death of a loved one. But the principle is the same.
We"re going to miss Mark, just like you"ll miss that graduate, that neighbor or that newlywed. But rather than drown ourselves in the sadness of our parting, we"ll focus on our hopes for a brighter future—for him, and for us. And then we"ll go out and do everything we can to make that future happen.
小题1:The passage is mainly about ___________.
| A．how to change yourself successfully |
| B．how to do if your colleague (同事) leaves |
| C．how to deal with unhappy things in life |
| D．how to deal with unexpected things in life |
| A．let us know his colleague | B．praise his colleague |
| C．introduce a topic | D．describe his life |
| A．really unpleasant | B．very angry |
| C．both happy and sad | D．a little disappointed |
| A．A rained-out picnic. |
| B．A terrific neighbor’s apology. |
| C．The sudden death of a loved. |
| D．The graduation of a family member. |
| A．accept them and hope for a better future |
| B．do as planned |
| C．overcome difficulties and let them in control |
| D．never give up until he succeeds |
