15、y an important part in our lives, and although we may take friendship for granted(认为理所当然), we often dont clearly understand how to make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few for example, the average among students is about 6 per person. In
16、 all the cases of friendly relationships, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy(亲密) between them and the reasons for their shared interests vary(变化) greatly. As we get to know people, we take into account things like age, race, economic conditi
17、on, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors(因素) are not of great importance, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background.Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to h
18、ave similar ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests they often talk about “being on the same wavelength”. It generally takes time to reach this point. And the more intimately involved people become, the more they depend on one another. People who want to be friends have to learn to put up
19、 with annoying habits and to stand differences.In contrast(比较) with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association(友谊) between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful b
20、ond, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers(障碍) of age, class or race.36. According to the passage, _.A. friends are those who must share their interests B. all the people know how to make friends C. friends are closer than people who just get on with each other D. eve
21、ry student has six friends37. We can learn from the passage that _. A. friendship can overcome all differences between two people B. there are no special ceremonies to strengthen friendship C. standing differences in opinion can lead to friendship D. friendship can be strengthened by smiles and soft
22、 voices38. When people talk about “being on the same wavelength”, they mean that they _.A. watch the same TV programsB. are the same in all ways C. have the same backgroundD. share the same way of thinking and the same interests39. Which of the following is NOT implied in the passage? A. Friends nev
23、er argue with each other. B. Even friends may have different opinions. C. It generally takes time for people to become close friends. D. Someones habits may annoy his friends. BAmerican and British people use different greetings. In the USA the commonest greeting is “Hi”. In Britain it is “Hello!” o
24、r “How are you?”. “Hi!” is creeping (不知不觉地进入) into British, too. When they are introduced to someone, the Americans say, “Glad to know you.” The British say, “How do you do?” or “Pleased to meet you.” When Americans say “Good-bye”, they nearly always add, “Have a good day.” or “Have a good trip.” et
25、c. to friends and strangers alike. Britons are already beginning to use “Have a good day.”The British usually use “got” in the sense of “have”. The Americans hardly ever do.AmE: Do you have a car, room, etc.? Yes, I do.BrE: Have you got a car, room, etc.? Yes, I have.There are a number of difference
26、s between American and British English in the spelling of words, e.g. check (US)/cheque (UK). Many American words ending in “or”, e.g. honor, labor are spelt in British English with an “our,” e.g. honour, labour. Many verbs in American English with “ize” or “izing” forms, e.g. organize, realizing ar
27、e spelt in BrE with “ise” or “ising”, e.g. organise, realising. In American English, “practice” is used both for the verb and noun. In BrE, the verb is spelt “practise”, and the noun “practice.” In American English, one writes “traveler,” while in British English, one writes “traveller”.It was once
28、predicted that British and American English would become separate languages finally. But the opposite has happened. The links (联系) between the two countries are so strong that linguistically (语言上地), and probably culturally (文化上地) too, they are closer together than ever.40. The Americans hardly say “
29、_” A. Good-bye. Have a good day! B. Glad to know you! C. Hi! D. Have you got a car?41. What does the fifth paragraph talk about? A. There are lots of differences in spelling between AmE and BrE.

32、o see temples and get off buses to take photos”. However, as Chinese travellers diversified(使多样化)their interests, more and more people decided to travel on their own. Millions of families with their own cars prefer to travel by car.Cui Xiaotang, a career(职业) woman, and her two friends left from Beij
33、ing Saturday in a car. They did not have a firm destination but drove southwards. “Maybe when there is no road for cars, we will stop and stay one night in a local farmers house,” Cui said excitedly about her plan.Exchanges between north and south and between cities and rural areas are two trends em
34、erging(出现)during the holiday.Northerners can enjoy the beauty of southern rivers, while southerners can travel to cooler parts of the country.While millions of travellers made their way to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, people there decided to go somewhere else.A large number of tourists join grou
35、ps with plans to travel abroad. Every year, those groups go farther and farther away.
