三、任务型阅读(请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填上一个最
恰当的词)
There are times when you want to know how to make friends. Maybe you are just not confident because
you’re afraid that people may not react the way you want them to. But it is not very hard to make friends; it is just
what you think it is that makes you not willing to do it. Continue reading to find out how!
Don’t be mean or rude; you do not want to lose any potential friends. Be nice and friendly. If you want to
make friends, you first need to put yourself out there somehow in order to meet people. If you just sit alone, friends
might come to you, but the odds are much smaller. If you’re still in school, sit somewhere with other people. It
doesn’t have to be the ‘‘popular’’ or ‘‘cool’’ table, or a crowded one, but one with at least two other people. Hang
out with many others. The popular kids won’t matter when you’re older, but a true friend will be there for you
forever.
There is no necessary need to have a lot of common interests with people in order to make friends with them.
But if you like a specific topic, try searching for just an organization or a club where you can find people who are
also interested in it and become a member of it. It’s a great way to meet new local people.
Volunteering is also a great way for people of all ages to meet others. By working together you build bonds
with people, and you might meet others who have a passion for changing things the way you do, that is, a common
cause.
There are many ways to start a conversation-a comment about your immediate environment (The weather is a
classic: ‘‘At least it’s not raining like last week!”), a request for help (‘‘Can you help me carry a few boxes, if you
have a minute?” or ‘‘Can you help me decide which one of these is a better gift for my mum?”) or a compliment
(‘‘I love your shoes.”). Follow up immediately with a related question: Do you like this warm weather? What kinds
of gifts do you normally buy for your mums? Where did you get shoes like that? Also, make a small talk.
Remember the 30% talking and 70% listening ratio during small talk.
You’ve probably heard of fair-weather friends. They’re the ones who are happy to be around you when things
are going well, but are nowhere to be found when you really need them. Part of being a friend is being prepared to
make sacrifices of your time and energy in order to help your friends out. If a friend needs help with an unpleasant
chore, or if he or she just needs a shoulder to cry on, be there. If your friend tells a joke, laugh with him or her.
Never complain about a friend. If you and your friend agree to meet somewhere, don’t be late, and do not stand him
or her up. If you’re not going to make it on time or make it at all, call him or her as soon as you realize it. Apologize and ask to reschedule. Be someone who people know that they can count on.
In a word, when you get along with people around you, it’s important for you to actively approach others, start
a small conversation freely and then develop a close relationship with others.
Introduction Sometimes you want to find ways to make friends, but you (1) confidence.
Spend more time
around people

organization or a
club

Start a
conversation

▲Keep the 30% talking and 70% listening ratio in (6) during small talks.
Be nice and loyal

▲If a friend needs help when he or she is in trouble, or if he or she wants to (8)
joy or sorrow with you, be there.

▲Don’t be late for your appointments.
(10) Only when you actively approach others can you make friends with others much better.

三、任务型阅读(请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填上一个最
恰当的词)
There are times when you want to know how to make friends. Maybe you are just not confident because
you’re afraid that people may not react the way you want them to. But it is not very hard to make friends; it is just
what you think it is that makes you not willing to do it. Continue reading to find out how!
Don’t be mean or rude; you do not want to lose any potential friends. Be nice and friendly. If you want to
make friends, you first need to put yourself out there somehow in order to meet people. If you just sit alone, friends
might come to you, but the odds are much smaller. If you’re still in school, sit somewhere with other people. It
doesn’t have to be the ‘‘popular’’ or ‘‘cool’’ table, or a crowded one, but one with at least two other people. Hang
out with many others. The popular kids won’t matter when you’re older, but a true friend will be there for you
forever.
There is no necessary need to have a lot of common interests with people in order to make friends with them.
But if you like a specific topic, try searching for just an organization or a club where you can find people who are
also interested in it and become a member of it. It’s a great way to meet new local people.
Volunteering is also a great way for people of all ages to meet others. By working together you build bonds
with people, and you might meet others who have a passion for changing things the way you do, that is, a common
cause.
There are many ways to start a conversation-a comment about your immediate environment (The weather is a
classic: ‘‘At least it’s not raining like last week!”), a request for help (‘‘Can you help me carry a few boxes, if you
have a minute?” or ‘‘Can you help me decide which one of these is a better gift for my mum?”) or a compliment
(‘‘I love your shoes.”). Follow up immediately with a related question: Do you like this warm weather? What kinds
of gifts do you normally buy for your mums? Where did you get shoes like that? Also, make a small talk.
Remember the 30% talking and 70% listening ratio during small talk.
You’ve probably heard of fair-weather friends. They’re the ones who are happy to be around you when things
are going well, but are nowhere to be found when you really need them. Part of being a friend is being prepared to
make sacrifices of your time and energy in order to help your friends out. If a friend needs help with an unpleasant
chore, or if he or she just needs a shoulder to cry on, be there. If your friend tells a joke, laugh with him or her.
Never complain about a friend. If you and your friend agree to meet somewhere, don’t be late, and do not stand him or her up. If you’re not going to make it on time or make it at all, call him or her as soon as you realize it.
Apologize and ask to reschedule. Be someone who people know that they can count on.
In a word, when you get along with people around you, it’s important for you to actively approach others, start
a small conversation freely and then develop a close relationship with others.
Introduction Sometimes you want to find ways to make friends, but you (1) confidence.
Spend more time
around people
If you don’t want to lose any potential friends, be nice and friendly to others.
(2) an
organization or a
club

those who can change the way that you do.
Start a
conversation

为 when。句意：一天，我正在学习时突然听到一声巨响。

didn’t。句意：外面的人不知道怎么帮助他们。
