relationships. many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in truth, though, no boy is an island; boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence and are happier and healthier when they have solid relationships with peers(同龄人)despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends a very important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are. a recent study of 10 to 15yearold boys and girls found that girls friendships are actually more fragile. girls tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the end of a friendship.boys are the living definition of the phrase “peer group”； they love games with rules, competition, and doing things together. boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves against others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate(空手道) class or on the basketball court. competence and skill are widely respected; being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an experience that can haunt(萦绕心头) a boy for years.as boys mature, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include girls. during the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boys lifeand a part in which his parents are not included. the confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds with friends. there is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is “always there for me”， someone he can trust. they may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the friendship of adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep.46the common belief of adults is that boys_. adont care about others as much as

directions：read the following passage.fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. write no more than three words for each answer.the atmosphere is a gaseous envelope that surrounds the earth. it is a collection of gases, vapor and particulates surrounding the earth.the atmosphere is very important to life on this planet because, firstly, it acts as a system for cycling and recycling carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen; living things transform these elements into sources of carbohydrates and proteins for nourishment(营养). secondly, it protects us from invisible threats such as the harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. thirdly, it protects the earths surface from rapid heating during the day and rapid cooling down at night. lastly, it provides us with the air we breathe as it is our basic life support system; every breath we take requires oxygen in the air.however, human activities are causing the emission of harmful gases into the atmosphere. this has resulted in many environmental and health problems. urban air pollution, acid rain, contamination by toxic chemicals, the lessening of the stratospheric ozone layer and changes in the global climatic system are all important environmental threats to the atmosphere.air pollutionour planet is becoming choked with poisonous gases mostly from our daily activities like driving cars, warming out house and running power stations. and pollution doesnt need a passport to travel around the world.ozone depletionfor years, chlorofluorocarbons(cfcs)were used as a cooling device in freezers and air conditioners. cfcs destroy the ozone layer, the layer that filters(过滤)ultraviolet radiation from the sun which causes eye damage and skin cancer.the greenhouse effectas more greenhouse gases released in the atmosphere reflect more heat back to the earth, it causes a rise in temperature, beyond that which is considered to be normal. rising temperature will cause the climate change, which may lead to more natural disasters, extinction(灭绝)of some animals and plants. additionally, while passing through surface, some is lost in space. greenhouse gases reflect back some solar energy a
