【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述对人友好是双赢的行为。善举基金会这样的组织教人们表达善意，认为善良可以被教导和被传播的信念。同时介绍了善举基金会将善举分成三种：人与人之间的善意，对大自然的善意和对自己的善意。

【1】根据第一段第一句“remember a time when somebody was kind to you”讲述有人对你友好；第二句“Perhaps a person”和第四句“Or perhaps a stranger or a friend”在举例说明有人对你表示友好的表现，第三句选择“Maybe your sister phoned you to ask how your week was going”此处也在举例表达“可能你姐姐打电话给你，问你这周过的怎样”，也是一种友好。故选B。

【2】根据第一段倒数第二句“an act of kindness is a win-win situation”表达“友好是一种双赢”；最后一句选择“It benefits (使受益) both the receiver of this kind action and the person who does the action”说明双赢的具体含义是对表现友好和接收到友好的人双方都有益。故选E。

【3】根据第二段开头“Many organizations try to encourage people to do kind acts”讲述很多组织试着鼓励人们展示自己的友好。最后两句“It works with schools and companies to teach people kindness skills. It holds the belief that kindness can be taught and can spread”表达的是某一组织的具体行动和信念。由此选择Perhaps the strongest supporter of this idea is the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation来举例说明最大支持者是the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation这一组织。故选D。

【4】根据最后一段第一句“there are three kinds of kindness”讲到有三种友好的表现；以及“The second”和“The third”可知此处需要表述第一点的内容“The first is interpersonal kindness”人与人之间的友好。故选A。

【5】根据最后一段倒数第三句“The third is personal kindness, which means treating yourself kindly”第三种是对自己的友好，要善待自己。此处举例说明具体指的是什么含义，选择“Some examples are taking a walk in nature or watching a film after a week’s hard work”比如一天的辛苦工作之后自己去大自然走走。故选C。

补全短文的做题方法如下：①先读一遍短文，了解大意。②再读一段，找出每段的中心意思。例如第一段There are many ways to offer kindness;第二段Many organizations try to encourage people to do kind acts；第三段According to the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation, there are three kinds of kindness。③根据段落结构、上下文或前后句子的逻辑关系，来选择答案。例如第一题前后的句子都在举例，可知填的句子也在举例，可得出答案“Maybe your sister phoned you to ask how your week was going”。第二题在解释前一句“a win-win situation”的含义，可得出答案“It benefits (使受益) both the receiver of this kind action and the person who does the action”。最后一段是总分的结构，第一句是总的说有三种善举，后面出现了“second”和“third”由此可知第四题填“The first is interpersonal kindness”描述第一种善举的内容。⑤最后再完整的读一遍，检查答案。
