题文
Friendships can be difficult — because often people aren't as honest and open as they should be. Sometimes, people finally get hurt.Most problems with friendships come up because people are just too selfish to care about the things that their friends need. They care about their own needs much more, which makes it hard for friendships to work. However, being selfish is part of human nature. A person is put together in order to take care of themselves and their own needs, not necessarily those needs of other people. Even though being selfish is something that all humans are born with, it is something that everyone should be against.
The best thing to remember when you are a friend to anyone is that you need to treat your friends the same way that you'd like to be treated(对待). This is wonderful advice for a friendship, because it is really the only way to make sure that you are giving your friends everything you would want to be given in a friendship. Whenever you have a question about how you should treat a friend, it is easy to find an answer simply by asking yourself what you would like your friend to do for you, if he or she was in your shoes.
Even if you're always thinking about how you'd like to be treated, and your friends are too, there are problems that come up from time to time in each friendship, and it is important to understand how to deal with these problems so that you can build stronger and healthier friendships. Problems like friends getting boyfriends or girlfriends and not spending enough time with their friends, or even friends finding new friends and leaving old friends behind are problems that will probably come up with one or more of your friendships. It is important to know how to deal with these friend problems so that you can keep your friends and make new ones. No one wants to have a broken friendship.

答案

解析
友谊有时候是很难顺利进行下去的，因为通常人们并不是很坦诚，人们有时会隐藏事实，因此人们最终也会受到伤害。其实这些大多数与友谊有关的问题，都是因为人太自私而不去关心别人的需求造成的，在本文中作者就此情况进行了分析并且给出了建议．
小题1:C主旨大意题．文章开头提出Friendships can be difficult.然后在下文提出友谊难以维系的原因，和一些朋友间会出现的具体问题，以及如何去看待这些问题等，所以文章中心是讨论友谊中所碰到的一些问题，而C选项内容恰好能概括中心，故选C．
小题2:B细节理解题．根据文章第二段Most problems with friendships come up because people are just too selfish to care about the things that their friends need.可知友谊出现问题的原因是由于人们太自私而不能关注到朋友们的需要，所以判断B选项正确．
小题3:A细节理解题．由文章第三段The best thing to remember when you are a friend to anyone is that you need to treat your friends the same way that you'd like to be treated．可知一个人要按照自己希望被对待的方式去对待朋友，换句话说你希望别人怎么对待你，那么你就怎样去对待别人，故A为正确选项．
小题4:B根据文章末段It is important to know how to deal with these friend problems so that you can keep your friends and make new ones可知了解如何处理朋友间的问题为的是能够维持和别人的友谊，结成牢固的友谊．故B为正确选项．

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
