问题     Aristotle defined a friend as "a single soul dwelling in two bodies". Members of Facebook whose "friends" reach triple figures may have a looser definition, but how many friends we have, and how easily we make,【C1】______ and lose them, has a significant impact on our【C2】______ well-being.
    It’s no surprise, then, that friends can improve just about every aspect of our life. A recent study says that the recovery from a surgery included,【C3】______ , a reduction in the level of pain felt by patients with the most friends. Likewise, friends can protect us from the aftershocks of bereavement (丧失亲人) or【C4】______ . They don’t even have to be great friends—some of the【C5】______ effect is simply down to the company: have a pint with a mate and you’re by definition not socially【C6】______ .
    We first recognise the importance of friends in childhood, when we’re not really sure how to make them. While some of us may【C7】______ a few childhood friends, the biggest opportunity for friendship comes in higher education. A study of long-term friendships found that friendships formed during college years stayed close 20 years later, if they scored highly in closeness as well as communication to begin with. These friendships【C8】______ great distances and an average of six house moves. "At college you can cultivate close friendships because you’re in such close【C9】______ for sustained periods," says Glenn Sparks, Purdue’s professor of communication. "These relationships are【C10】______ and hard to replicate; they’re very unusual outside family relationships. Even when distance, jobs, family tended to pull them apart, these friends would say that once they re-established contact, they didn’t miss a beat."
A) positive B) suspiciously C) proximity D) retain
E) submitted F) emotional G) divorce H) maintain
I) sensitive J) rare K) survived L) reunion
M) isolated N) ambiguity O) incredibly [br] 【C8】
选项
答案 K
解析 此处需填入动词过去式，作谓语。these friendships指代大学期间建立的友谊，它可以在20年后依然很亲密，可见即使受外在不利因素影响(距离遥远、平均搬6次家)，这种友谊仍能“幸存下来”，survived符合上下文语义。
