分析 短文主要介紹了喜歡獨(dú)處的人會(huì)成為你好朋友的一些原因．
解答 36．D，考查因果關(guān)系，根據(jù)前文提示they don't like to have too busy a schedule，可知此空他們?cè)敢飧愠鋈サ脑蚓褪撬麄儧]有那么多的計(jì)劃，故答案為D．
37．A，考查前后銜接，后文提到的they enjoy their share of solitude，那些享受獨(dú)處時(shí)光的人不是空格前提到的那些朋友，因此此空應(yīng)指出另外的一些人，故答案為A．
38．F，考查前后銜接，這一段的主題是They value privacy．注重個(gè)人隱私，因此此空的F選項(xiàng)提到"他們不需要跟整個(gè)世界的人分享他們自己的故事"．
39．G，考查標(biāo)題歸納，這一段的主要內(nèi)容是那些喜歡獨(dú)處的人會(huì)充分利用時(shí)間，故G選項(xiàng)是其標(biāo)題的總結(jié)．
40．C，考查前后銜接，根據(jù)主語They really value a true friend．他們真的很珍惜真正的朋友，因此C選項(xiàng)提到的是喜歡獨(dú)處的人朋友少，但特別重視．
點(diǎn)評(píng) 題目要求從7個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選擇恰當(dāng)?shù)恼Z句填入空格處．這種類型的題目關(guān)鍵是符合邏輯和語境，要強(qiáng)調(diào)從上下文中尋找具體的解題依據(jù)．
