dnaughty解析此处指孩子年龄还太小(young)，不懂得真正的友谊。答案b2a.different bfamiliarcsimple dcomfortable解析上文讲了孩提时期还不懂得真正的友谊，成年人则常把友谊同名声、财富联系在一起。根据第二段及下文所描述的情况可知，高中时期最要好的朋友之间的友谊则与上述两种情形不一样，故用different。答案a3a.success bfailurecvalues dsecrets解析此处指分享彼此的“秘密”。a、b、c三项在下文中都做了描述，故可排除，否则重复。答案d4a.shape bchangecdesign ddiscover解析此处指讨论生活中方方面面的事情并开始“形成”自己的价值观。答案a5a.praise bblamecinform dsupport解析根据该空后的“.to the biggest

dhotel解析根据下文讲的cora的例子可知，她是在出了学校进入社会后才体会到高中时期友谊的珍贵，而作者在下文中讲的自己的经历也是如此。因此，本句句意为：我们许多人直到进入“社会”后才认识到这一点。答案c8a.strong bfreecclear dweak解析cora在进入社会后，体会到与高中的好朋友之间的关系是多么紧密。strong在此意为“紧密的，牢固的”。答案a9a.got

“holiday” implies holy day.unfortunately，most things that people dont understand can become fearful.the biggest misunderstanding about halloween is that it is a day for devil worshipping.halloween is now celebrated on october 31 as a costume and candy holiday，but those traditions have actual meaning in history.october 31st was celebrated as a holiday with great festivals because it marks the end of the harvest year.it also marks the end of the lighter half of the year and the beginning of the darker half of the year，because the light of day gets shorter and the dark of night gets longer.in ancient cultures，this was a really meaningful event.also it is believed that on this day，the veil between the worlds(dead and alive) is at its thinnest point and that the spirits can most easily pass through it.it is a very special day to honor spirit.many people in ancient times believing that the dead would walk among us became fearful and designed strange costumes to fool the dead，which is where the tradition of halloween costumes comes from.besides，because halloween marks the beginning of the darker half of the year，many people saw that as evil and became frightened and therefore had such negative associations with this time of year.halloween，for me，is a deeply personal holiday.it is a time to reflect on the spiritual nature of myself.it is a day to reconnect to the magical things in life，such as how the love that i feel for my grandmother，who passed away over ten years ago，is still as strong now when i think of her as it ever was when i could be with her in person.my husband and i exchanged our wedding vows(誓言) on halloween because i couldnt think of a more meaningful or romantic day to pledge our love and life to each other.【语篇导读】本文介绍了万圣节为什么让人们产生负面的联想。1in ancient

soon be replaced.the new developmentliquid woodcan replace plastics in all branches of modern industries.plastic as a material enjoys the biggest demand in the modern world，but it does have a number of drawbacks.first and foremost，plastic isnt recyclable.secondly，it contains toxins (毒物) helping develop cancerous diseases.finally，its made of oil and oil reserves arent endless.the liquid wood technology is likely to replace plastic and provide mankind with new materials for many years ahead.norbert eisenfreich，a senior researcher at the faunhofer institute for chemical technology (ict) in germany，said that arboform，the new material，is made of lignin (木质素)，which can be obtained from soft tissues of wood.once mixed with several other materials，it turns into solid and nontoxic alternative for plastics.ict team leader emilia regina inonekauffmann said the woodworking industry separates wood into three basic components，including lignin.lignin isnt used for the production of paper.specialists of ict mixed lignin with several natural materials and thus invented the material which could be melted and molded (铸型)when solid，arboform looks like plastic and possesses the qualities of polished wood.it can be used for the production of any items.arboform is already used for the production of car parts which require extra strength.in addition，liquid wood can be recycled repeatedly.the material preserved all of its qualities even if its reprocessed ten times.however，the new invention doesnt enjoy an extensive use due to the high content of sulphur (硫) in it.german researchers are sure to reduce the amount of sulphur by 90 percent very soon to make arboform usable for home needs. 【语篇导读】塑料制品是20世纪最重要的发明之一，但因为其缺点与不足，将被另外一种全新的材料所取代。6according to the
