1-5ACCDB CBDBD 11-15DDDCD 16-20BAACD解析:

本文主要從以下幾個時期介紹了“朋友”的概念：在幼兒園時給你一支紅蠟筆的人就是好朋友；在小學陪你去洗澡等的人也是好朋友；在中等學校(secondary school)與你一起去參加晚會的人也是好朋友；上大學前幫助你挑選并進入大學的人也是你的好友……
1. A 結合全文可看出，此處說的是“在小學時”你對好朋友的概念或看法，即 your idea of a good friend。
2. C 從 as you walked through the scary(可怕的) halls(當你走過可怕的大廳時)可推測此處應填 held，也就是說“攥緊你的手”(讓你不要害怕)。
3. C 結合下文“……當你把午飯忘在公交車上時”可知該題選擇shared，即“與你一起分享他們的午餐”。
4. D “leave… + 地點狀語”表示“把……忘在……”此句意為“當你把你的午飯忘在了公交車上時”。yours 在此指的是 your lunch。
5. B 從 on the back of the bus for you 來看，此處說的是“為你在車后部給你占座位”，故用 seat。
6. C 此處選 who，它引導的是一個賓語從句(不是定語從句)，該句意思為：知道你迷戀誰，但從沒有理解為什么。
7. B 前面提到了幼兒園、小學，后面又提到了 pre-university(上大學前)，而 college(大學)又在 pre-university 之后，故選擇 secondary。secondary school 意為“中學”。
8. D 從搭配上看，此處應用 copy。check one’s homework 意為“檢查作業”，而 copy one’s homework 意為“抄作業”。從孩提時對朋友的看法來看用 copy 更合乎這一時期的學生心理。
9. B 根據“和你一塊去參加很‘酷’的晚會”和“你不會以新手而結束”可知，前句為原因，后句為結果，也就是說前后為因果關系，故選擇so。
10. D 此句指“他們不讓你獨自吃午餐”�！蔼氉浴笔侵缚陀^上的一個人，故選alone。
11. D 從后面 in their new car 來看，rides 為最佳答案，即“讓你搭乘他們的新車”。
12. D 前面說：你和 Nick 或 Susan 分手，再結合后面括號中的(both without dates)，可知此處選擇 date，意為“找個日期去舞會或與你一塊去舞會來安慰你”。
13. D 前面說“幫你選擇大學”，可推測下句為“讓你有信心進入這所大學”，故用 university。
14. C 在此，deal with 應理解為“關照”。主句意為“幫助你照看你父母”，可推知你走后父母的日子相對來說比較艱辛，故用 hard。
15. D 寫到這里應該是成年人時期了，故用 adulthood。
16. B 此處選擇 when，它引導一個時間狀語從句。該句意思為：當你不能在家照顧父母時好朋友卻在那里(照顧你父母)。
17. A 在第 2 段中曾提到“你和 Nick 或 Susan”分手，這里是說“你和 Nick 或 Susan又言歸于好(be back together)”。
18. A 此處說的是與以前的 Nick 或 Susan 恢復了關系，再結合下文at 18 years of memories 可知此處應選 looked，look at 為“看到”，即 looked through blurry eyes at 18 years of memories(透過模糊的雙眼看到了 18 年來的思念或記憶)。
19. C 在這里是說“讓你相信就像這 18 年(獲得愛情)一樣你一定能成功”。make it 為短語，意為“成功地做到；達到目的”。
20. D 從上下文來看，此處說的是“最重要的是送你上大學并讓你懂得有人愛你”。send off 為“為……送行”，send sb off to 意為“送……去……”。
