     "Friendship is one of the basic bonds between human beings." While the characteristics of friendship
might vary from one country to another, people from all cultures not only enjoy friends but need them.
Many studies have shown that teenagers who have no friends often suffer from psychological disorders.
It has been shown that teenagers, perhaps more than any other age group, need companionship and a sense
of belonging. The negative consequences of loneliness have also been observed among the elderly. The death
of a spouse (配偶) often leaves a widow or a widower totally bereft (失去理智). If, however, they are
surrounded by friends and relatives and if they are able to express their feelings, they are more likely to recover
from their grief.
     "No man is an island." In other words, we are all parts of society. We all need the love, admiration, respect
and moral support of other people. If we are fortunate, our friends will provide us with all of these necessary
aspects of life. As most people observe, there are many levels of friendship. The degree or intensity of
friendship varies depending on the personality of the individuals involved and the context of the relationships.
Outgoing persons enjoy being surrounded by many people whereas shy persons are perhaps content with
fewer but more intense friendships.   
     Everyone is not equally open with all their friends. The degree of closeness is determined by many factors. Close friends can be formed at any stage in one's life but they are usually very rare. Not very many people have more than a few really close friends. Irrespective of the level of closeness, all friendships are based on reciprocity(互惠), honesty and a certain amount of love and affection.
1. "No man is an island" (Line 1, Para. 3) implies that _______.  
A. everyone is a part of an island
B. man cannot be an island  
C. everyone is just a part of society
D. society is an island
2. The degree of closeness of friendship mainly depends on ________.  
A. age
B. belonging
C. personality
D. culture
3. The author thinks that close friends ________.  
A. can be easily formed when one is young
B. cannot be long-lasting  
C. are not rare for everyone
D. are rare for most people
4.The word "irrespective" (Last sentence, Para. 5) means ________.
A. not respecting
B. dishonoring
C. regardless
D. considering

     Nearly all the visitors to southeast France pay a visit a Monaco, too. Lying near the French-Italian
border, Monaco is not part of France, but a separate principality (大公國)-though it is surrounded by
its great neighbour.
     Monaco became a principality in the 16th century after being owned by a family member of a certain
Italian king. The French and Italian, however, soon came to protect it one after another until 1861, when
it became its own master again.
     Facing the blue Mediterranean (地中海), Monaco is mainly made up of two cities, Monaco, where
the palace for the Prince stands, and Monte Carlo, which is a wonderful place for visitors. Every year,
about half a million people come to Monaco, nearly 25 tiroes as much as its population.
     Believe it or not, Monaco has no soldiers or policemen of its own. Law and order is kept by the
French police, and the French stand for it in its foreign affairs, even the money used in Monaco is the
franc, too.
1. Which of the following maps shows the right position of Monaco and its neighbouring countries?
(Mc=Monaco, Fr==France, I=Italy, Md=Mediterranean)

2. Monaco has a population of ____.

A. nearly 25 thousand
B. no more than 20 thousand
