A.FacebookorTwitter B.anadvertisementC.atextbook D.anewspaper語(yǔ)篇解讀:探討表明,我們?cè)?6歲時(shí)擁有最多的摯友,但是隨著時(shí)間的推移,我們的摯友會(huì)削減。答案及剖析:1.B細(xì)微環(huán)節(jié)理解題。依據(jù)第四段最終一句中的“...viaFacebook,comparedto18to24-year-oldswhomake12”2.D細(xì)微環(huán)節(jié)理解題。依據(jù)第五段SamOwen所講的話的其次句“Itisakeytimeinourliveswhenfriendshipisgrowingthroughsharingnotes,givinggifts,seeingeachotherregularlyandlaughingalot.”可知,學(xué)校時(shí)間是人生中建立友情的重要階段,這時(shí)候的友情成長(zhǎng)于共享筆記、贈(zèng)送禮物、相互探望、一起歡樂(lè)中。3.B詞義揣測(cè)題。依據(jù)倒數(shù)其次段的其次句“Overhalfofuslosefriendship...apartfromclosepals.”及畫線詞所在句“Havingchildrenalsocauses19%to...childhoodfriends.”可以推斷,畫線詞意為“失去聯(lián)系”。A項(xiàng)意為“理解”,C項(xiàng)意為“對(duì)……感到愧疚”,D項(xiàng)意為“與……和好”,都與語(yǔ)境不符。4.D文章出處題。依據(jù)第一段中的“anewresearchhasclaimed”以及最終一段中的“thesedays”,再結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可以推斷,本文最有可能摘自報(bào)紙。Ⅱ.七選五(2024遼寧模擬)Stressfulsituationsaresometimesunavoidable.Eachofusperceives(理解)challengesinourownwayandreactiontothemalsovaries.Howstressfulourlifeisdependsnotonlyonus.1.Andthisissomethingwecannotchange.

7.Apotential“潛力;可能性”;talent“天才,天賦”;anxiety“焦慮”;ability“實(shí)力”。依據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知是有可能會(huì)損害“我”。8.Dchance“機(jī)會(huì)”;gift“禮物;天賦”;favor“恩惠;支持”;lift“電梯;搭車”。句意:我把車開到她身邊停了下來(lái),主動(dòng)讓她搭我的車。offersb.alift“主動(dòng)讓某人搭(自己的)車”。9.Cabstract“抽象的;純理論上的”;concrete“詳細(xì)的”;vague“模糊的;不清晰的”;ambitious“有雄心的”。后面but表示轉(zhuǎn)折。句意:雖然對(duì)于她的故事不是很清晰,但是她告知我她已經(jīng)旅行了一段時(shí)間了。10.B依據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知,此處她說(shuō)她已經(jīng)旅行了一段時(shí)間了,并且一路都是生疏人在幫助她。而作者本人就是生疏人,所以B項(xiàng)為正確答案。11.D依據(jù)空后的“
