Friendship 5 to be a different form of 6 relationships . Unlike marriage or the ties that 7 parents and children , it is not explained or regulated (制约) by 8 . Unlike other social roles that we are expected to 9 — as citizens , employees , members of professional societies and 10 organizations—it has its own rule , which is to develop 11 of warmth , trust and love 12 two people . The 13 on friendships appeared in Psychology Today in March . The findings 14 that topics of trust and betrayal are 15 to friendship . They also suggest that our readers do not 16 for friends only among those who are 17 like them , but find many 18 differ in race , religion , and background .

1.B expect sth . of sb . 固定搭配,意思是“对(某人)寄予……的期望,指望(某人)……”,类似结构还有remind/inform/rob sb . of sth … ask a favour of sb .等。
2.D in return 表示“作为……的交换,作为……的回报”,上下文的大意,他们对朋友的期待以及(作为回报)他们的付出。
3.C Be satisfied with sb / sth . 表示“对……感到满意”,系固定搭配。
4.A 根据上下文分析,人们在友谊中寻找的东西,对友谊的质量那么满足,而人们研究的结果却是“……”(The findings -14--- that ) ,由此本题选results而不是expectations,不再是谈论人们的期待。
5.D A项表示(由触摸而)感知,感觉,C项意思是“听起来”,D表示“从表面上看上去”(有时会有事实上并非如此的意思),根据句意选appear 。
6.A 表示“人的、人类的”作定语时用human而不用mankind , 如a human boby , human rights/nature, 此时human有时被看作名词。
7. A “连结父母与子女的纽带”,join表示“连接、衔接”。如The bridge joins/connects the two cities , 其它三项语意不符,be related to 表示“与……有亲属等关系”,relate表示“建立某种关系”时接介词with 。
8.B 根据句意上文的“婚姻关系及父母与子女的联系” 是受“法律”而不是其它三项约束的,本句大意说与婚姻等不一样,友谊不受法律约束。
9.D play a role (in sth .) 是固定搭配,表示“扮演……角色”。
10.C “专业团体及其他组织机构”因此用other 。
11.C 下文提到的温暖(warmth),信任(trust)、爱慕(love)均是feelings(情感)的具体表现形式,因此,本空应该选情感方面的词,即C。
12.A between 表示“两者之间”。
13.B 下文提到in March ,可见Psychology Today是一份期刊,那么出现的期刊上的应该是一篇文章,下文第19空所在句子印证了这一答案… that appears in the article 。
14.C prove表示“证实、证明”,符合上下文,“这些发现证明了这一点”。
15.D 对朋友的信任还是背叛,这构成了友谊的中心内容,central在此表示“中心的,主要的”。
16.D look for 表示“寻找”,只有这个动词短语符合上下文语意,表示“读者不仅在与自己性趣相投的人群中寻找友谊”。
17.B 根据上下文,此处用比较级more,“在那些与自己相似的人群中寻找知已”,此处A项干扰性大,定语从句修饰those而非friends。
18.B 此处不论说many , 还是many people 、many friends ,后面都必须有定语从句引导词who ,引导在从句中作主语,因此不能省略。
19.D 根据所给四个选项及上下文判断,此处用demand,因为下文所说something we found , What we didn’t 均指是对友谊的期望值,显然不是“结论、总结、决定”而是“需求”。”
20.B 此句描述内容与上文相反,上文说读者往往在人群中寻找知已,下文说人们寻友的需求是找我们没有发现的东西,因此用however 。
