Unit 1Friendship.閱讀理解You might call them “Internet friends” since I havent met most of them,but for me theyre real friends whether we talk online or in person.I name-drop them in conversations with other friends,we have in-jokes,and we share advice or a listening ear when we need to.They are no different to the friends I have made at home.The problem with my “Internet friendships” comes when I have to explain them to “real friends”.“But how can they be your friends if youve never met them?” “What do you really have to talk about?” The list is endless.Even family members think I am a freak (不正常的人) for believing that anyone on the Internet can be a) real b) a true friend c) free of serial killer(連環(huán)殺手) tendencies.Ive met so many people through Twitter which has led to me meeting them in “real life” as well.When I go to London,its full of people that I love.At the end of last year after a visit to the city,I spoke to one of my “Internet friends” and said that seeing her had reminded me how much I missed her.Her reply was as follows:“I forget that my Internet friends are just as real and important to me as the friends I grew up with (if not more important sometimes!)”.Over the past year,as I often wasnt well enough to even leave the house,my “Internet friends” became extremely important and without them I would have struggled to keep my head above water.My “physical friends” were great,truly,but my “Internet friends” became more important in some respects possibly because of our shared love of travel.Many of us share the same dream of being able to live the life of a traveler for as long as we can and they also know what it takes to do thatthings my friends didnt know.When I struggled to see what I needed to do before visiting a place,they were there with advice.1.What does the author think of “Internet friends”?A.They cant be true friends.B.They are dangerous sometimes.C.They are the same as “real friends”.D.They are more reliable than “real friends”.2.How does the authors opinion about “Internet friends” sound to his family?A.It is strange.B.It is popular.C.It is objective.D.It is beneficial.3.When were the authors “Internet friends” particularly important?A.When he was lonely.
