题型:不详难度:来源:
Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Sure, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.
No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well. That doesn’t mean they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named in this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.
There is more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people who don’t have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares. If someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.
小题1: The first paragraph tells us     .
A.what is the feeling of having no friends
B.we always need friends around us
C.making friends is a need in people’s life
D.we need to be alone in our life
小题2:Which of the following places people name after their friendly people is NOT mentioned in the passage?

AAAGH! The Generation 90s is coming!

Some couples spend every waking minute together. Others fill their hours with personal hobbies,outside interests and even part-time jobs, just to keep their distance from each other! "There should be private time and couple time," suggests Dr. Stephen Treat at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia."You don"t want your latter years to turn into a process where two people unite as one. If you hold too tightly to your partner, it"s going to cause resentment and anger. If you"re completely separate, you"ll both be lonely and disconnected. You need balance. So you have to talk about how you"ll achieve that."
The right balance? It"s different for every couple. "Having a conversation about time can be difficult,but it"s important for both partners to process those feelings out loud," Dr. Treat says. "You should not be accusing and act as a judge—ask the difficult questions, but do it in a loving way. You could say something like, "How are we going to be as individuals and how are we going to be as a couple?" "
Barbara and Chris Christensen have achieved the balance that works for them. In addition to daily routines that keep them close—including about 10 minutes for a daily check-in and about a half hour of relaxation time—they each maintain separate interests and friendships.
"We have found that we need time apart," Barbara says. "I have a group of women friends that I have known for the last 30 years. We have dinner out once a month. We women also have parties and weekend or weeklong vacations as a group at a beach or somewhere. Chris, a former fighter pilot, has many aviation-oriented(航空的) groups and friends and also a poker-playing group of our friends. I may be with him during the poker night, but I don"t play, and the wives usually watch a chick flick" DVD or something while the poker group has an evening of fun. We have found it important to have separate time as well as together time."
