Good friends as we are, I still find her difficult to understand ________.

  A. at times                B. at a time                   C. at one time               D. at the time

A

解析：句意為：就像我們這樣的好朋友，我­ ____ 仍然很難理解她。這里表達(dá)的是偶然的情況，所以選at times，意為“有時(shí)候”。at a time意為“每次；逐一；依次”；at one time意為“同時(shí)；曾經(jīng)”；at the time意為“在那時(shí)”。

Being sociable looks like a good way to add years to your life. Relationships with family, friends, neighbours, even pets, will all do the trick, but the biggest longevity (長壽) boost seems to come from marriage or an equivalent relationship. The effect was first noted in 1858 by William Farr, who wrote that widows (寡婦)and widowers  were at a much higher risk of dying than their married peers. Studies since then suggest that marriage could add as much as seven years to a man’s life and two to a woman’s. The effect holds for all causes of death, whether illness, accident or self-harm.
　　Even if the odds are stacked against you, marriage can more than compensate. Linda Waite of the University of Chicago has found that a married older man with heart disease can expect to live nearly four years longer than an unmarried man with a healthy heart. Likewise, a married man who smokes more than a pack a day is likely to live as long as a divorced man who doesn’t smoke. There’s a flip side, however, as partners are more likely to become ill or die in the couple of years following their spouse’s death, and caring for a spouse with mental disorder can leave you with some of the same severe problems. Even so, the odds favour marriage. In a 30-year study of more than 10,000 people, Nicholas Christakis of Harvard Medical School describes how all kinds of social networks have similar effects.
　　So how does it work? The effects are complex, affected by socio-economic factors, health-service provision, emotional support and other more physiological (生理的) mechanisms. For example, social contact can boost development of the brain and immune system, leading to better health and less chance of depression later in life. People in supportive relationships may handle stress better. Then there are the psychological benefits of a supportive partner.
　　A life partner, children and good friends are all recommended if you aim to live to 100. The ultimate social network is still being mapped out, but Christakis says: “People are interconnected, so their health is interconnected.”
【小題1】William Farr’s study and other studies show that _________.

A．social life provides an effective cure for illness
B．being sociable helps improve one’s quality of life
C．women benefit more than men from marriage
D．marriage contributes a great deal to longevity
【小題2】Linda Waite’s studies support the idea that _________.
A．older men should quit smoking to stay healthy
B．marriage can help make up for ill health
C．the married are happier than the unmarried
D．unmarried people are likely to suffer in later life
【小題3】It can be inferred from the context that the “flip side” (Line 4, Para. 2) refers to _________.
A．the disadvantages of being married
B．the emotional problems arising from marriage
C．the responsibility of taking care of one’s family
D．the consequence of a broken marriage
【小題4】 What does the author say about social networks?
A．They have effects similar to those of a marriage.
B．They help develop people’s community spirit.
C．They provide timely support for those in need.
D．They help relieve people of their life’s burdens.
【小題5】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．It’s important that we develop a social network when young.
B．To stay healthy, one should have a proper social network.
C．Getting a divorce means risking a reduced life span.
D．We should share our social networks with each other.

Three years ago, I had a job in a retail store (零售店). I    21   to talk to everybody and know what was going on in their    22  . I remember a girl who started    23   there a few months after me. We seldom talked but we always    24   each other and smiled.

I was working as a consultant in a beer company, helping the president and senior vice-presidents form and carry out their new planning projects. It was really a great challenge.

At the same time, my mother was in the final stages of cancer.

I worked during the day and drove 40 miles home to be with her every night. It was tiring and stressful, but it was what I wanted to do. My commitment was to continue to do excellent consulting during the day, even though my evenings were very hard. I didn’t want to bother the president with my situation, yet I felt someone at the company needed to know what was going on. So I told the vice-president of Human Resources, asking him not to share the information with anyone.

A few days later, the president called me into his office.

I figured he wanted to talk to me about one of the many issues we were working on. When I entered, he asked me to sit down. He faced me from across his large desk, looked at me in the eye and said, “I hear your mother is very ill”.

I was totally caught by surprise and burst into tears. He just looked at me, let my crying subside(平息), and then gently said a sentence I will never forget: whatever you need.

That was it. His understanding and his willingness to both let me be in my pain and to offer me everything were qualities of sympathy（同情）that I carry with me to this day.

1.When the author was working in a beer company, his mother        .

A．was concerned about him                 B．drew the president’s attention

A．to help plan some new projects

B．to avoid bothering the president

C．to tell the vice-president his difficult situation

D．to do his job well and look after his mother

3.Most probably, the president got the information from        .

A．a(chǎn) relative of the author’s                B．the vice-president

C．the author’s good friends                D．the author’s workmates

4.Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?

A．Understanding Is Nowhere                B．Generous President
