四、阅读理解 （共15 小题，30分）

阅读下面四篇短文，从各题A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳答案。

I like friends who share my happiness and sorrow,and who possess wings of their own and fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate(照亮)me and help me to express my love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share.

When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say,“Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.

    When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair(失望) and I was in despair, but our friendship was based on the idea that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we felt awful at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and visited many wonderful places. We walked until our despair disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.

    For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters to each other in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell…” We have never met.

    It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist(心理学家), who will only fill up the healing(愈合的) silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.

A. Become serious about her studies.                B. Went to her friend’s house regularly.     

C. Learned from her claamates at school.           D. Wrote poems and stories with her friend.

A. our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of us

B. we were unwilling to tear ourselves away from London

C. our unpleasant feelings about London disappeared[来源:Zxxk.Com]

D. we parted with each other in London

3. According to Paragraph 4, the author and her friend       

A. call each other regularly            B. have similar personalities

C. write stories                      D. sometimes dream about each other[来源:Zxxk.Com]

4. In the darkest moments, the author wants to             

A. seek professional help               B. be left alone

C. stay with her best friend            D. break the silence

5. What is a good title for the passage?

A. Unforgettable Experiences          B. Remarkable Imagination

C. Lifelong Friendships                D. Noble Companions
