We have an amazing 99 friends at the age of 21--more than at any other time in our life, according to a new study. The typical 21-year-old’s social circle nearly hits 100, with 13 “best” friends, 17 “close” friends and 70 acquaintances.

The research undertaken by skin care brand Nivea found our social circle peaks at 21 as we meet people at work while keeping in touch with friends from school and university. But as our working lives take over,we lose contact with some old friends causing the number to drop to around 68 by the time we are 29 years old. Although this decline continues into old age,it slows down slightly for people in their 30s when many of them become first-time parents. It is believed that this is because people form new friendships while on the maternity ward(产科病房),at post­-natal(产后) groups and when taking their toddlers(学步时期的小孩) to nursery.

The Nivea Closeness Report found the balance between our numbers of “best friends”,“close friends” and “acquaintances”,remains fairly constant throughout our lifetime. The average Briton has 18 close friends and a friendship circle,when all Facebook and other social networking “friends” are included,of 208 people. The report found that men have more than twice the number of close friends,with around 27 compared to women who have just 12. Londoners are also the most sociable,with 39 “close friends”,while the Welsh have just 11.

The age of 21 is such a critical junction in life and that’s why we have so many friends then. As we get older we become more selective and have fewer close friends with whom we talk about the things that are really important to us. Perhaps when we are younger,instead of having one trusted confidante(知己) we share different things with a variety of different people.

1.According to the Nivea Closeness Report,who have the largest number of close friends?

A.Canadians. B.The Welsh.

C. Londoners. D.Americans.

2.Older people have fewer friends than the 21-­year­-olds because .

A.they think friends are no longer important

B.they are more selective and cautious

C.they are less interested in making friends

D.they have little time to make friends

3.The research suggests that the number of friends in one’s late twenties reduces by or so, compared to that in one’s early twenties.

A.70 B.20 C.30 D.200

4.Why does the number of one’s friends decrease slowly when he is about 30 years old?

A.Because they achieve success in business and get acquainted with more colleagues.

B.Because many parents make friends with people who have similar experiences in bringing up children .

C.Because they make more friends through Facebook or the Internet.

D.Because as they grow older, they have more confidantes instead of acquaintances.

The influence of America is increasing in my country. Spanish people drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day.

I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies. Most of the programs and documentaries (纪录片) we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood. In the last few years, the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies. Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from other countries in Europe.

American culture is a part of Spanish life now. It’s certain that many things from America are as much a part of people’s lives as Spanish things. For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. I’ve known about Coca Cola for my whole life.

However, it’s different with Western fast food. For example, I don’t think McDonald’s is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people. The Spanish people normally eat at home. On the other hand, maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas. It’s true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald’s, and it is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, it’s obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives every day.

1.From the first paragraph we can know that ____.

A.the influence of America on Spain can be found everywhere

B.most Spanish people don’t like to listen to their own music

C.fast food spreads from Spain to the United States

D.some Spanish actors go to America to improve their acting skills

2.What plays an important part in the spreading of American culture in Spain?

A.American novels B.Hollywood movies.

C.McDonald’s. D.American music.

3.Why did the government set some rules for the films shown in Spain?

A.To protect foreign culture in Spain.

B.To earn more money from Spanish films.

C.To limit the number of foreign movies.

D.To unite the European Community.

4.What do you think Spanish tapas might be?

A.The name of a drink.

B.The name of a restaurant.

C.A clothing brand.

D.A certain kind of food.
