题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Modern life is a lot les s to the advantage of friendships and neighborliness than it used to be. The average American moves every five years. People drive straight into their garages, hire lawn services, hang out in their backyards instead of their front porches (前走廊). These days, neighbors don't even know each other's names. 

Good neighbors and good friends are a lot like electricity or running water: We don't know how much we depend on them until we don't have them. In fact, the authors of a recent book, Refrigerator Rights, claim that refrigerators are signs of close relationships--after all, you wouldn't snatch a drumstick(鸡腿) from the refrigerator of a stranger.

The surprising thing is that all it takes to strengthen your relationship with friends and neighbors is respect for their feelings, concern for their property, and a helping hand when it's needed. Here's how to develop your relationships with two types of vitally important people in your life. 

_________________. A true friend doesn't flee when changes occur. The sign of a good friend is one who stays true through it all--marriage, parenthood, new jobs, new homes, the losses. Just because situations change doesn't mean the person has to.

Friendships fade away if there isn't an balance between the give and the take. So make sure you aren't being a burden to your friends. Be sensitive to how much your friend can and can't offer you--be it time, energy, or help -- and don't step over the line. Meanwhile, friendships that drain(耗尽) you will not last. If a friendship is out of balance in this way, you'll need to talk the situation through.

1. Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?

A true friend will stay the same even when the situations change. 

                                                                          

2. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with a proper sentence. (Within 10 words)

                                                                         

3. What advice is given in the last paragraph? (Within 10 words)

                                                                         

4. What do you think the author will go on talking about if the passage continues?(Within 10 words)

     As De Witt Wallace lay in bed recovering from injuries that he unfortunately came by in World War I, he
found there was a wealth of interesting information to read. Realizing few people would have the time to get
through all this information, he knew exactly ____. In 1920, this young American presented a sample magazine
containing condensed (浓缩的) articles to publishers across America. All turned him down.
     De Witt was not discouraged. He and his wife Lila Bell Acheson published the first issue of Reader's Digest
in February 1922. Working from home, the Wallaces printed 5,000 copies, which were sold by mail to 1,500
people and priced at 25 cents. From these small beginnings grew the world's most widely read magazine.
     The magazine became popular and, by 1935, sales had topped one million. In 1938, the first international
edition was published in the United Kingdom. During World WarⅡ, editions were published for the first time
in Latin America and Sweden After the war Reader's Dig Test moved into Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark,
Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, South Africa and Switzerland. In 1950, Reader's Digest published its
condensed books (now known as Select Editions in Australia). In 1959, music, the first non-print product line,
was introduced. In 1962, Reader's Digest revolutionized direct mail by introducing easy-to-enter Sweepstakes
and a year later the first Reader's Digest general book was published. In 1986, video was added to the Reader's
Digest product.
     In 1973, the Wallaces gave up active management of Reader's Digest. De Witt died in 1981, aged 91; Lila in,
1984, aged 94. With no heirs to the Wallace empire to take over, Reader's Digest became a public company in
the early 1990s and is now headed by a Chief Executive Office and Chairman of the Board. Reader's Digest is
one of the most successful publishing stories in the history of global magazines.
