Many studies have shown that teenagers who have no friends often suffer from psychological disorders. It has been shown that teenagers, perhaps more than any other age group, need com?panionship and a sense of belonging. The negative consequences of loneliness have also been observed among the elderly. The death of a spouse often leaves a widow or a widower totally bereft. If,however, they are surrounded by friends and relatives and if they are able to articu?late their feelings,they are more likely to recover from their grief.
"No man is an island." In other words, we are all parts of society. We all need the love,admiration,respect and moral support of other people. If we are fortunate, our friends will pro?vide us with all of these necessary aspects of life.
As most people observe, there are many levels of friendship. The degree or intensity of friendship varies depending on the personality of the individuals involved and the context of the relationships. Extroverts enjoy being surrounded by many people whereas introverts are perhaps content with fewer but more intense friendships.
Everyone is not equally open with all their friends. The degree of intimacy is determined by many factors. Close friends can be formed at any stage in one's life but they are usually very rare. Not very many people have more than a few really close friends. Irrespective of the level of intimacy,all friendships are based on reciprocity,honesty and a certain amount of love and affection.

What is eBay? The simple answer is that it is a global trading platform where nearly anyone can trade practically anything. People can sell and buy all kinds of products and goods, including cars,movies and DVDs,sporting goods,travel tickets,musical instruments,clothes and shoes―the list goes on and on.
The idea came from Peter Omidyar,who was born in Paris and moved to Washington when he was still a child. At high school, he became very interested in computer programming and after graduating from Tufts University in 1988 ,he worked for the next few years as a computer engineer. In his free time he started eBay as a kind of hobby,at first offering the service free by word of mouth. By 1996 there was so much traffic on the website that he had to upgrade(升级) and he began charging a fee to members. Joined by a friend, Peter Skill and in 1998 by his capable CEO,Meg Whitman,he has never looked back. Even in the great,com crashes of the late 1990s, eBay has gone from strength to strength. It is now one of the ten most visited online shopping websites on the Internet.
EBay sells connections, not goods, putting buyers and sellers into contact with each other.All you have to do is take an e-photo, write a description, fill out a sales form and you are in business:the world is your market place. Of course for each item(商品)sold eBay gets a percentage and that is a great deal of money. Every day there are more than sixteen million items listed on eBay and eighty percent of the items are sold.

As a kid,I can remember going to the supermarket and grabbing eggs off the shelf. I would run them home to my mother because they were usually going into a delicious cake. Times have changed. Cage-free? Organic? Brown? White? Omega-3s(—种脂肪酸)?Help!Here are some tips to help you figure out which eggs you should be eating.
Brown or white? In fact,color is simply a sign of the breed of hen. Find the freshest egg with the most flavor and let color be a secondary concern.
Extra Omega-3s? Omega-3 eggs come from a hen whose diet has added flaxseed (亚麻籽), which produces an egg containing an average of 225 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E. The countless health benefits for humans make these eggs an attractive purchase. My opinion? Eat a piece of fresh fish and get a pure pill of Omega-3s. Let eggs be eggs. .
Does your egg need exercise? Free-range eggs are from hens raised without the limit of a cage,though they may or may not have spent much time outdoors. Organic eggs are from hens whose food must meet organic standards. These hens must be raised humanly, and they must be given time to the outdoors. Hey,happier hens do lay tastier eggs.
Does local make a difference? Nothing is better than local eggs. They may have a feather or two stuck to them or be a little imperfect in shape and may or may not be certified organic; however, they have one quality. I know exactly where my food came from and how it came into being!In some cases I can even ask the farmer when the eggs were laid and what they were fed.
( ) 5. What's the best title for this passage?
A. Which Eggs Should You Be Eating?
B. Eggs Are Changing as Times Are Changing
C. Which Kind of Egg Is the Best?

A. They are a good choice for people to buy.
B. They contain fewer Omega-3s than fresh fish.
C. They have the highest content of pure Omega-3s.
D. They are not the best source of Omega-3 s.
( ) 7. The underlined word "free-range" probably means "__________________ ”.
A. wild B. cage-free
