My Best Enemy

    Once again, I was in a new school. So was a girl in my class named Lisa. That’s where the similarities ended.

    I was tall and she was small. My thick black hair had been recently cut short into an untidy style. Her natural blonde hair flowed to her waist and looked great. I was 12 and one of the oldest in the class while she was 11 and the youngest. I was awkward and shy. She wasn’t. I couldn’t stand her, considering her my enemy. But she liked me and wanted to be friends.

    One day, she invited me over and I said yes—I was too shocked to answer any other way. My family had moved six times in six years, and I had never managed to develop any friendships. But this girl who wore the latest fashions wanted me to go home with her after school. She lived in a fun part of town that had two pizza places, an all-right bookstore, a movie theater and a park. As we walked from the school bus stop through her neighborhood, I tried to guess which house might be hers. Was it the white one with the perfect lawn or the three –story house with a front porch? I got very surprised when she led me into an old apartment building. She lived on the fourth floor in a two-room place with her mother, her stepfather, her two brothers and her sister.

  When we got into the room she shared with her sister, she took out a big case of Barbies, which was my next surprise. I had never played with them. We sat on the floor, laughing as we made up crazy stories about the Barbies. We found out that we both wanted to be writers when we were older and both had wild imaginations. We had a great day that afternoon.

    Lisa was loved by the whole neighborhood. The bookstore owners lent her fashion magazines; the movie theater gave her free tickets…. Soon I was included in her magic world. We slept over at each other’s houses and spent every free moment together.

Lisa, my first real friend since childhood, helped me get through the rough years of early adolescence(青春期)and taught me an amazing and very surprising thing about making friends: you worst enemy can turn out to be your best friend.

WHAT can help you make a fortune in the future? Graduating from a top university might not be enough.A new study from the University of Essex in Britain has shown that the more friends you have in school, the more money you’ll earn later.

The idea that popularity could have a serious impact on one’s earning potential shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise.The researchers noted that if you want to get_ahead in life, social skills and networking are easily as powerful as talent and hard work.

“If a person has lots of friends, he or she has the ability to get along with others in all kinds of different situations,” said Xu Yan, 17, from Nantou High School in Shenzhen, who totally agreed with the recent finding.“Also, friends always help each other.They not only create wider social circles for you but lift your mood when you occasionally feel depressed.” She believed that all this helps you “earn a higher salary”.

Maybe that’s why some people think the younger generations are in the age of Friendalholism (交友狂症).A woman even complained that the networking website Facebook’s 5000-friend limit was too low for her large reserve of social contacts.

But Meghan Daum, who works with The Los Angeles Times in the US, disliked the idea that quantity trumps (胜过) quality in the age of Friendaholism.“Call me uncool, but I think of a friend as an actual person with whom I have an actual history and whom I enjoy actually seeing.” said Daum.She admitted that some Internet social networkers just want to get as many of not-really-friends as possible.Although she agreed that social ties grease (润滑) the wheels of life, she also warned, “Finding a real friend is something that really matters.”

63.What CANNOT be learned about friends from the passage?

       A.They enlarge social circles for you.

       B.They offer encouragement when you are upset.

       C.Only talented friends help you to earn success.

       D.Friends enable you to overcome difficulties.

64.In the age of Friendalholism, ________.

       A.there are networking websites to help people make friends

       B.a person with popularity is sure to enter a top university

       C.facebook helps social networkers make as many friends as possible

       D.there are always more not-really-friends than actual ones

65.The underlined words probably mean ________.

       A.expect      B.struggle    C.graduate   D.succeed

66.Meghan Daum holds the attitude towards making friends that ________.

       A.actual friends outweigh not-really-friends

       B.the more friends one has, the better

       C.friends can help make a big fortune

       D.social relations can hardly make one’s life better
