B Friends aren’t just fun to have around; they actually help your health. A recent study finds that people who have a larger group of friends in their life live longer than those with few friends by 22%. Friends help you develop healthy habits. Friends can influence you to make good health changes in your life. Going out with the girls, for example, may mean you see their healthy choices at lunch and do the same. A night out with the boys may include basketball or running rather than sitting in front of the TV. We often think of friends as a group that we have fun with, but a good time can also mean improving your world in some way. This is especially true when you have a lot of friends around you who want you to live a long and healthy life. Friends help us meet the challenges differently. Failures (失败) can cause many kinds of physical problems in our bodies, but friends can change the way we deal with them and help our emotional (情绪的) health, which in turn allows us to meet the challenges in a stronger way. Friends help you find diseases earlier. Sometimes, a friend notices something unusual about one’s health that he or she hasn’t even realized. They can point it out and encourage their friends to see a doctor. Friends want us to be around a long time. Friends are very important in our life. 1.What do we learn from the recent study? A.

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 When I was a child I thought a lot about what it means to love. I once asked my mother if she loved me or my father 1 (many), certain that I knew the answer — me. Instead, she bent down and looked at me 2 the eye, hands gently on each shoulder. She explained that she couldn’t help 3 (love) me and that the love of a mother for her baby was incredibly strong. But then she told me that the love she had for my daddy was a love of __4__ (choose), which made it special. Of all the people in the world, she chose 5 and he chose her. Now that I’m married, I consider each day 6 it takes to stay married as long as my parents have. It’s not that I don’t believe in romance. 7 I believe more in the sacred of the ordinary. I believe in love that is sustained by deliberate __8__ (kind) and the choice to see little acts as testaments of love and commitment rather than indicators of a spark that has died of love communicated each time he cooks meals and I schedule his dental appointment. This picture of love is certainly less 9 (excite), but decidedly real, and more romantic in its own way because of the weight of its 10 (real).
