Friendly Relations with the People Around

　　1 You depend on all the people closely around to give you the warm feeling of belongingness (歸屬) that you must have to feel secure. But, in fact, the members of all the groups to which you belong also depend on you to give that feeling to them. A person who shows that he wants everything for himself is bound (一定的) to be a lonely wolf.

　　2 The need for companionship is closely related to the need for a sense of belongingness. How sad and lonely your life would be if you had no one to share your feelings and experiences. You may take it for granted that there always will be people around to talk to and to do things with you and for you. The important point, however, is that keeping emotionally healthy does not depend so much upon having people around you as upon your ability to establish relationships that are satisfying both to you and to them.

　　3 Suppose you are in a crowd watching a football game. You don't know them. When the game is over, you will all go your separate ways. But just for a while you had a feeling of companionship, of sharing the feelings of others who were cheering for the team you wanted to win.

　　4 An experience of this kind gives the clue (線索) to what companionship really is. It depends upon emotional ties of sympathy, understanding, trust, and affection. Companions become friends when these ties are formed.

　　5 When you are thrown in a new circle of acquaintances (熟人), you may not know with whom you will make friends, but-you can be sure that you will be able to establish friendships if you show that you really like people.

　　做完再看解析

　　首先，我們看一下題目是Friendly Relations with the People Around，與周圍人的良好關系。

　　很顯然這篇文章講的就是我們平時所說的人際關系。

　　接下來,我們看一下每一段的大概意思。

　　概括大意通常要找中心句也就是主題句，這種主題句在職稱英語考試的題中大多數能能直接找到的，要么在段首、要么在段末。

　　好，看一下第一段話，第一句話應該是中心句，說明了與周圍人保持良好關系是很重要的。

　　第二段話，第一句話The need for companionship is closely related to the need for a sense of belongingness 如果我們不能明白這句話的意思可以簡單地依靠句式的特殊性判斷出companionship=sense of belongingness友誼就等于歸屬感。

　　所以第一題的答案就是B。

　　第二段話的第一句話較短Suppose you are in a crowd watching a football game.

　　這里的suppose一詞是假設、設想的意思，很顯然這段話是利用假設的看足球比賽的場景來說明友誼關系。所以第二題選擇D，這里的example 例子、舉例的意思。

　　第四段話第一句話有個非常關鍵的語句An experience of this kind gives the clue (線索) to what companionship really is.這樣的一詞經歷為我們探尋真正的友誼是什么提供了線索。

　　后面就是在講什么是真正的友誼。所以第三題的答案選擇F.

　　最后一段話只有一句話，生字不多我們可以讀完，抓住其中比較關鍵的意思，很顯然這段話是將如何結識新朋友，建立新的友誼的，最后的you will be able to establish friendships if you show that you really like people.告訴我們只要我們真正喜歡對方我們就能夠很對方建立友誼。

　　所以最后第四題選擇A.

　　后面的幾個完成句子題非常簡單，我們只要能區別幾個備選項，又能讀懂題目基本上就能夠選擇答案了，加之我們通過概括大意題已經熟練地掌握了文章的意思。這里就不一一解釋了。
