Question

In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends, who will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities (品质) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).
Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.
At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults (过错) in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.
There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience (经验) and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I’ve found a friend!

解析试题分析:
【小题1】这是细节理解题。不能与你共患难的朋友在你遇到麻烦时会拒绝向你提供帮助的。根据who will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away.可知故选B。温馨提醒：根据fair-weather friends,后面的定语从句可以判断出答案，高考题有一部分阅读题是细节理解题，只要学生理解问题所在的那句话的内容即可。
【小题2】这是细节理解题。根据In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me. 好朋友应相互理解。可知故选B命题人设置了一个陷阱选项A,有的学生误选它，认为好朋友之间应该互相指出对方的错误，这是学生自己的想法，不符合本文的意思，因此做阅读题不能把自己的观点作为依据去回答问题。
【小题3】这是主旨大意题。根据I look for certain qualities (品质) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).命题人设置了一个陷阱选项B,有的学生误选它，认为本文的主题是在哪里能找到好朋友，不符合本文的意思。本文的主题是好朋友所具备的四个品质。
