Some classical(古典的.经典的)(1) views may help us understand the notion(观念) (2) of friendship more clearly. Aristotle distinguishes genuine friendship from two other forms: one based on mutual utility(效用) (3)

25、and the other on pleasure. While the ground (4) for the latter two forms of friendship is closely related to material benefits, short-term interests or age, genuine friendship occurs (5) only between those who are similar in their goodness (6). Cicero, another ancient scholar, believes that true fri

26、ends actions and lives should leave no question as to (7) their honor, purity, equity and liberality. Whether or not one possesses(拥有) (8) any superiority over the other, both must regard themselves as equals of the other and try their best to preserve(维护;维持) (9) the friendship. Moreover, true frien

27、ds are bound(结合) (10) together, as a friend is said to be a mirror (11) in which you may perceive and know yourself. When virtuous(品德高尚的) (12) friends are bonded together by a commitment(保证，承诺) (13) to the good, they can recognize each others moral excellence (14) and fulfill their self-improvement.

28、Cloze 2Today young people tend to jump on the bandwagon of love with so much haste(匆忙.催促) (1) that they fail to realize the essence of true love. Given the current state of affairs（事件） (2), we need to consider more closely the nature of love. True love has to be distinguished（杰出的） (3) from the pleas

29、ures of the flesh. True love means a meeting of minds (4) and it takes time to blossom（兴旺） (5). People who are in true love focus more on inner charm（魅力） (6) than on physical beauty, more on intimacy（亲密） (7) than on closeness, more on emotion (8) than on passion, more on sharing than on acquiring（取得

30、） (9). As true love happens once in a lifetime, they have in their minds the ideals (10) of the relationship. They share mutual respect, admiration（钦佩） (11) and plenty of romance, so their relationship is lasting (12) and meaningful. Preserving true love requires effort, however. You should gift you

31、r object of affection（影响） (13) your time, company, support and friendship; you should give yourself and your beloved time and space to forge（伪造.铸造） (14) a life-long bond; and you should honor (15) your commitments. In short, you should devote yourself to your love. Your devotion to love will, in ret

32、urn, bring you an overwhelming(势不可挡) (16) joy.Cloze 3It is our natural desire to be happy. Throughout human history, people as a whole (1) have been going after happiness. However (2), the pursuit of happiness is often accompanied with dissatisfaction and frustration. This is in part (3) due to our

33、different understanding of happiness. In effect (4), our sense of happiness is derived(起源) (5) from our definition of happiness. Some believe that happiness can be purchased(获得) (6) with wealth. From this point of view, the better off(境况较好的) (7) one becomes, the happier one gets. Therefore, to be ha

34、ppy, they take pains (8) to get rich. But wealth does not necessarily (9) lead to happiness. Others believe that happiness has something to do (10) with status a system of ranking. Thus, ones happiness is built upon his favorable comparison(比较) (11) with others. But since society cannot raise its po

35、sition relative (12) to itself, unhappiness is thus inevitable(不可避免的)(13). So it can be said that both views serve (14) more as the barrier to true happiness than as the guide. To seek (15) true happiness, we must change our inner attitude and strive for the common good of all human beings.Cloze 4AI

36、DS is a terrible disease. It poses a threat(威胁) (1) to all the human beings without caring whether you are black or white, male or female, gay or straight, young or old. But what is at risk(处于危险中) (2) now is not just the people infected(受感染的) (3) with the disease. Human civilization itself is being

37、threatened. This is because the whole society tolerates both ignorance of and prejudice(偏见.损害) (4) against HIV or AIDS. Once diagnosed (被诊断) as HIV-positive, the victims are isolated（孤立的） (5) or treated as outcasts. They are believed to have contracted（收缩的） (6) something evil or to have entered some

38、 alien state of being. As a result, these poor people have to shelter（掩蔽） (7) the flickering（闪烁的）candle of life from the cold wind of rejection by their family members. When they die of the disease, their families dare not whisper the word AIDS. They just grieve（悲伤） (8) silently. Thus, our prejudice

39、 and silence have helped the disease along (9). Now HIV marches firmly towards AIDS in more than a million American homes, littering its pathway（途径）(10) with the bodies of the young. To guard against the disease effectively, we must take this issue (11) seriously. People should be educated to bring

40、(12) those negative attitudes to an end. We should not see AIDS as something evil（邪恶） (13) and the patients as alien. Instead, we should concern ourselves with（涉及） (14) the prevention of the disease and render strong support (15) to the patients with more compassion. Only in this way can we have a b

41、etter chance of winning the war against AIDS.Cloze 5Mankind hopes for a better world to live in. To this end (1), man has to confront the inevitable conflicts that the future holds in store (2). Since education plays an indispensable（必需的） (3) role in managing those conflicts, the following four pill

42、ars of education are proposed. Learning to live together calls for (4) an understanding of others and the awareness of the diversity（差异） (5), similarities and interdependence of all people so that people can implement（工具） (6) joint projects. In accordance with（和谐） (7) the global changes brought abou

43、t by scientific progress, the emphasis（重点） (8) in learning to know should be put on combining（联合） (9) a broad general education and the opportunity to study a small number of subjects in depth (10). Associated with the issue of occupational training, learning to do aims to equip (11) people to cope

44、with various situations and work in teams. The fourth pillar is learning to be, which focuses on the complete development of ones potentials when he goes after（追求） (12) an independent, critical way of thinking and judgment. Given the convenient access（接近） (13) to knowledge in the information era, ev

45、eryone longs for a way to get the most out of (14) their own specific educational environment. These four interrelated pillars can help us make the best out of education and attain our future ideals.Cloze 6When we are suddenly transplanted（移居） (1) abroad, we may lose the peace of mind we need for ev

46、eryday work and life. All the familiar cues（提示） (2) disappear including words, gestures, facial expressions, customs, or norms. We reject the foreign environment and slip into the tendency（倾向） (3) to believe that our culture, race and nation form the center of the world. The frustration（挫折） (4) and

47、anxiety（焦虑） that can be attributed（把.归因于）(5) to the loss of familiar signs are symptoms of culture shock. One of the effective cures（治愈） (6) for this ailment is to know something about the nature of culture and its relationship to the individual. We should bear in mind that we are born with the capa

48、city（能力） (7) to learn culture and use it. The culture of any people is the product of history and is built up (8) over time. It is by means of (9) culture that we learn to adapt to the physical environment and to the people with whom we associate. Therefore, it is due to (10) our own lack of understanding of other peoples cultural background and of the means of communication that we can not orient（定向.指引） ourselves to (11) the host country. Another quick way to get over (12) culture shock
