    In her essay Friends, Good Friends and Such Good Friends, Judith Viorst creates a number of categories(分类) for Friendships, for her, some friendships are based on convenience, some on current shared interests, some on past shared history, some on accidental crossing - of - paths, and on and on. 1.

I have just two categories of friends. 2. The short-term, low-investment (投资) category is a large and changeable group made up of people I’ve met since I moved to New Orleans eighteen months ago. My New Orleans friends are mostly classmates in my writing courses, people who see and comment my writing courses and whose writing I see and comment.

3. But they are also unstable(不稳定的) and possibly disappointing. This is because we often know each other better through reading each others writing than we do through honest time spent together. Such knowledge and familiarity, without necessarily the investment can create stresses.

The long-term, high-investment category is primarily made up of people I left behind when I moved to New Orleans. 4. They are friends who know me, love me, and who can be counted on for anything, even though they live 1,500 miles away. I know these friends from the way they wash dishes to the way they choose a restaurant or drink their coffee. Every one of them was once a person in my life, standing in the low-investment category, and then slowly becoming forever friends. 5. And the work is hard.

A.And the only difference between the two is time and lots of work.

B.Such classification by her is beyond me.

C.The change takes just that Investment.

D.In many ways, they are friends whose concern is only based on profit.

E.These low-investment friendships are delightfully strong and serious at times.

F.This is a firm and efficient group, whose numbers can be counted on one hand.

G.Friends of the low-investment category are always trustworthy

    Poetry is one of mankind’s oldest art forms. Since first analyzed by Aristotle, poetry has been part of every major art movement, and some say it captures emotion better than any other forms. Reading peotry is necessary to gain a full understanding of the world and has many additional benefits .

The immediate benefits of reading poetry are improvements to vocabulary. Poetry makes the reader familiar with new terms and encourages verbal analysis. This presents reading as a creative act in its own right. The common practice of memorizing poems also improves long-term brain health. Studies have shown that people who memorize and recall poems are less susceptible (受影响) to Alzheimer’s.

Poetry also improves critical thinking by forcing a reader to think. In great poetry, meaning is not obvious or one-dimensional (维度). Understanding poetry is an active practice, rather than the passive engagement encouraged with prose (散文). Readers of poetry are more likely than nonreaders to analyze information for viewpoints. This skill benefits students, but also anyone who wants to form their own opinions of news items or gain a better perspective upon documents like contracts. The critical thinking skills developed through reading poetry give greater control language itself.

The most remarkable power of literature is its ability to unite reader and writer across time and cultural boundaries. As condensed(浓缩的) literature, poetry offers these benefits in a powerful way. Poetry triggers memories and emotions in its readers. This connection between universal emotions and personal experience encourages the development of empathy. A reader might have no practical conception of what life was like during the Elizabethan-era in England. However, Shakespeare’s Sonnets with their universal themes of love and longing, can bridge the gap of centuries and help us gain an insight into peopled feelings in the 17th century.

1.Which of the following shows the benefit memorizing poetry brings to the brain?

A.It improves peopled long-term memory.

B.It improve s one’s ability of analysing issues.

C.It makes one less likely to catch Alzheimer’s

D.It makes one act more creatively.

2.In what way does poetry improve critical thinking?

A.Readers have to analyze information to form viewpoints.

B.Readers must understand the obvious meaning of poetry.

C.Readers have to gain a better perspective upon documents.

D.Readers have to have a good control over language.

3.Why does the author mention Shakespeare’s Sonnets?

A.To show poetry motivates us learn different cultures.

B.To show poetry helps develop our empathy.

C.To show the universal themes of poetry.

D.To show Shakespeare’s understanding of life.

4.What is the purpose of the text?

A.To ask us to read poems.

B.To show how to appreciate poems.
