【解析】

试题分析：短文大意：朋友在我们的生活中扮演重要的作用。大多数人希望他们的朋友永远在。他们希望友谊天长地久。但是，即使最美好的友谊也可能会结束。当我们的友谊结束时，最好的办法是忘记痛苦，并努力开始去寻找新的友谊。

【1】B考查动词及语境理解。句意：他们希望友谊能够永远保持下去。hope希望；expect期待；decide决定；prefer更喜欢。根据Most people hope that their friends will always be there. 可知，这里的意思是“他们希望友谊能够永远保持下去”。但是hope 后不能跟sb/sth to do 形式。expect sb/sth to do。所以选B。

【2】A考查连词及语境理解。句意：不幸的是，即使最好的友谊也可能会结束。Unfortunately不幸的是；Luckily幸运的是；Then那么，然后；so所以。 联系空白前后句可知该选A。

【3】C考查名词及语境理解。句意：随着时间的推移，许多友谊会因为个性或者生活方式的变化而结束。interest兴趣；experience经历；change变化；suggestion建议。友谊从有到无也是一种变化。所以选C。

【4】B考查动词及语境理解。句意：友谊慢慢地失去了重要性，最后就消失了。forgets忘记；disappears消失；appears出现；improves 改进。联系后面的句子The friendship was just over.可知该选B。

【5】D考查动词及语境理解。句意：友谊结束了，因为我们见面越来越少。finished结束；practiced练习；continued 继续；started开始。根据The friendship was just over.可知友谊结束了是因为我们见面越来越少。所以选D。

【6】C考查动词短语及语境理解。句意：有时友谊会因为意见不合或者搬家而突然中断。 break down机器等出故障；break away 摆脱；break off中断；break in插话。根据句意可知该选C。

【7】B考查副词及语境理解。句意：从那以后，我们就很少通电话。often经常；seldom很少always总是；never从不。联系后两句We met less and less. At last our friendship ended可知该选 B。

【8】A考查动词及语境理解。句意：我们两个都忙于新工作。struggling挣扎； satisfying满意； pleased高兴；fed饲养。根据全文的意思可知们的友谊结束是因为我们两个都忙于新工作。所以选A。

【9】D考查介词及语境理解。句意：所以我们不能保持相互联系。at在；by提通过，根据；on关于；in在……之内。这里keep in touch with是固定搭配， 保持联系。所以选D。

【10】A考查连词及语境理解。句意：我们的友谊结束了以至于即使我回家了也不会给他打电话。even if即使；while当……的时候；before 在……之前；since自从。根据句意结合语境可知该选A。

【11】B考查形容词及语境理解。句意：两人都保持不变或者变化的方向很相似时，朋友就会保持住。strange奇怪的；true真实的；false错误的；impossible不可能的。根据前面的意思可知事实是两人都保持不变或者变化的方向很相似时，朋友就会保持住。所以选B。

【12】A考查连词及语境理解。句意：如果他们在某些方面变了，友谊很可能就会失去了。will be将会是；is 是；will将；to be不定式不能单独做谓语。If从句是用一般现在时，则主句用一般将来时。lost在这里是形容词，所以需要用will be lost。故选A。

【13】B考查形容词及语境理解。句意：总是有些失落感。little很少，几乎没有；some一些；any任何；no 没有。失去友谊当然应该有些许的失落感。所以选B。

【14】D考查动词及语境理解。句意：当为了保持友谊没有什么可做的时候。thought认为；checked检查；carried 携带；done做。这里是do sth或nothing 变成了被动。所以是nothing can be done。没有什么可做的了。所以选D。

【15】C考查非谓语动词及语境理解。句意：重要的是忘记痛苦继续去建立新的友谊。to ask for要求；表目的；forming构成；to build建立；表目的；beginning开始。move on to do 继续去做。所以选C。
