　阅读理解：

　　You know how wonderful you are, and you know that others know how wonderful you are, but what do you do when admiration crosses over the line into jealousy? For most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship. When this happens, it(划线词) can seem like there is nothing that you can do, but the good news is that there is. Don't let jealousy spoil your relationships. Deal with it and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.

　　It can be very hard to walk up to friends and ask them what the problem is, but if you want to save your friendship, you'll have to do just that. Don't approach them and ask why they are jealous of you. Just spend some time alone with them and let them know that you've been feeling like there's been something coming between you. If they refuse to respond, then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling. The chances are that something you say will hit a nerve and your friend will open up as well.

　　When you figure out what is annoying your friend, ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better. If, for example, (s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesn't get to spend any time with you because of your being out with your new friends, then maybe you could invite him or her along next time or spare one day a week for just the two of you. Remember, though, that whatever solutions you decide on should be a compromise. Don't limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy. Try to include him or her in your new life and see how that goes along.

　　Even the best friendships can be affected by jealousy. This destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies. Before taking extreme action, you should chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise. If you can't, be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you won't.

　　【参考答案】A

　　[考点]事实细节题

　　【精析】A 根据第二段第二句“Don't approach them and ask why they are jealous of you.”可知，不要走近朋友问他们为什么忌妒你，所以选项A错误。其他三项均可在第二段中找到依据。故选A。

　　2.The underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refers to .A.friendship B.relationshipC.admirationD.jealousy

　　【参考答案】D

　　[考点]词语理解题

　　【精析】D 根据第一段最后两句“Don't let jealousy spoil your relationships. Deal with it and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.”可知，不要让忌妒破坏了你们之间的关系;处理好它，你们的关系可能会比你认为的更快恢复正常。由此可推知，it指代的是前面提到的jealousy(忌妒)。friendship：友谊，朋友关系;relationship：(人、团体、国家之间的)关系;admiration：钦佩，羡慕。故选D。

　　3.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

　　A.There's always a solution to the problem of jealousy.

　　B.Jealousy can turn best friends into worst enemies.

　　C.You may lose a friend to keep your own gifts, chances or self-development.

　　D.You should go a long way with your friend to work out a solution.

　　【参考答案】C[考点]推理判断题

　　【精析】C 根据最后两段内容可知，在弄明白朋友忌妒的原因后，我们应该尽力和他们一起解决这个问题，但我们不可以为了挽救友谊而放弃自己的天赋、机会和自我发展，我们应该准备好知道自己为了留住朋友愿意做到什么程度，以及不愿意做到什么程度。由此可推知，在权衡折中的过程中，我们有可能会失去自己的朋友。故选C。本题易错选B项。根据最后一段第二句“This destructive emotion…can turn best friends into worst enemies.”可知，“忌妒会把最好的朋友变成最坏的敌人”是文中直接陈述的观点，并不是从文中推断出的观点，因此可排除。

　　4.According to the author, the jealous emotion is .

　　A.normal

　　B.productive

　　C.destructive

　　D.extreme

　　【参考答案】C

　　[考点]事实细节题

　　【精析】C 根据最后一段第二句“This destructive emotion is rarely productive…”可知，忌妒是一种具有破坏力的情绪,很少会有成效。normal：正常的;productive：富有成效的，生产的;destructive:破坏(或毁灭)性的;extreme：严重的，极度的。故选C。

　　5.The purpose of the passage is .A.to explain what causes jealousyB.to offer some advice on making friendsC.to introduce the way to cope with a jealous friendD.to explain how destructive the jealous emotion is

　　【参考答案】C

　　[考点]主旨大意题

　　【精析】C 通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了如何应对有忌妒心的朋友。由此可推知，本文的目的是介绍应对有忌妒心的朋友的方法。故选C。
