As adults, it is still important for us to have friends.True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when were foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are feeling down. They are people we arent afraid of telling our secret wishes to or what is really on our minds. Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends offer acceptance and emotional(情感的)support. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or giving us a lift when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on.Friends also help us reduce stress. Not only do they listen to us when we feel stressed, but they also discuss what is stressing us. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. For a short time, we can lose ourselves in a pleasant activity and perhaps laugh and breathe more easily.28. What is the best title for the passage?A. How to Reduce Stress B.

Renewable energy is energy from natural resources including the wind, sunlight, and water. This form of energy is always renewed and cannot be exhausted. The most popular modern day form of this energy can be seen in solar paneling(电池板). Renewable energy can produce electricity and plays a major role in reducing greenhouse emissions(排放) and fossil fuels (化石燃料).A study by the Department of Energys National Renewable Energy Laboratory predicts that renewable energy resources can soon provide up to 80 percent of the electricity in the United States. The study was conducted to decide how renewable energy can meet the needs of a rapidly increasing population. Using the current solar panels, wind turbines, geothermal(地热), and hydropower, this 80 percent increase is a promising possibility for our future.Increasing this renewable energy will provide practical benefits for our economy, climate, and health. Not only will it greatly reduce global warming, but it will improve public health, and provide many economic benefits. In a future with 80 percent fewer renewables, our carbon emissions will also be reduced by 80 percent, and water use will be cut in half.This future is both possible and affordable, and we already have the tools in place to begin. However, we need to make improvements to our current electricity grid(电网) first. Additionally, the United States needs to carry out a clean energy policy for renewables. 32. The passage is mainly about _. A. protecting the environment B. the use of renewable energy C. reducing global warming D. the form of renewable energy33. What is the closest meaning to the underlined word “exhausted” in the first paragraph? A. Tired. B. Removed. C. Created. D. Used up.34. Which of the following is not renewable energy? A. Solar. B. Geothermal. C. Hydropower. D. Fossil fuels.35. What will the renewables bring us?A. Doing good to our economy, climate, and health. B. Partly increasing global warming. C. Increasing our cost. D. Improving current electricity grid.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Some people learn a second language easily. Other people have trouble learning a new language.
