12．When it comes to friends，I desire those who will share my happiness，who possess wings of their own and who will fly with me．I seek friends whose qualities illuminate（照亮）me and train me up for love．It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours，too good not to share．
When I was in the eighth grade，I had a friend．We were shy and"too serious"about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors．We said little at school，but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper，and one of us would say："Let's start with a train whistle today．"We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle．Then we would read them aloud．At the end of that school year，we，too，were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped．
When I lived for a time in London，I had a friend，He was in despair and I was in despair．But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time．We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things．We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted．We gave London to each other．
For almost four years I have had remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine．We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves．Each of us appears，sometimes in a funny way，in the other's dreams．She and I agree that，at certain times，we seem to be parts of the same mind．In my most interesting moments，I often think："Yes，I must tell …．"We have never met．
It is such comforting companions I wish to keep．One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist，who will only fill up the healing silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend．

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀，作者通過這篇文章主要向我們講述了自己在人生的幾個不同階段所遇到的幾個好朋友，從而告訴我們朋友對于我們?nèi)松闹匾饬x．
解答 61．A．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文章第二段"We were shy and"too serious"about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors"可知作者在發(fā)展正確的社會行為之前做的是認真對待學習；故選A．
62．A．句意猜測題．根據(jù)文章第三段"We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted"可知作者和她的朋友當時在倫敦，都很絕望，但他們互相勉勵，一起尋找美好的事物，直到他們絕望的感覺都消失了，"我們把倫敦給了對方"，顯然這里表示探索倫敦是一個我們都難忘的禮物，故選A．
63．D．推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段"I often think："Yes，I must tell …．"We have never met"可知，我們寫長長的信給對方，出現(xiàn)在對方的夢里，從來未曾見過面，因此C項正確．A項文章未提及；B項不符合文意，文章只是說他們在某些方面相似；D項也不符合文意；故選D．
64．B．推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章最后一段"who will only fill up the healing silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend"在黑暗的時候（心情壓抑的時候），我寧愿做自己最好的朋友，可知在這些時候作者寧愿獨自一人；故選B．
65．D．主旨大意題．本文介紹作者人生道路上的幾個朋友，這些朋友與她一起寫詩作文，和她一起探討人生，盡管有些素未謀面．在心情壓抑的時候，她寧可獨自一人，她把充滿激情的時光保留著，送給最好的朋友；她尋找能照亮她的生活的朋友．因此最佳題目為品質(zhì)高貴的朋友；故選D．
點評 考察學生的細節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力，做細節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句，和題干進行比較，再做出正確的選擇．在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實，要根據(jù)文章事實進行合乎邏輯的推理判斷．
