分析 本文是一篇科教類閱讀，文章主要告訴讀者信任是聯系的紐帶和基礎，以及在生活中如何才能知道我們的朋友是否信任我們．此外，作者還說真正的朋友絕不會讓你感到失望或沮喪．
解答 36．C理解判斷題．根據第一段最后兩句"Sometimes，it takes years，even a complete lifetime，to trust someone．However，how do we know if our friends have faith in us？"可知信任某些人需要花費很多年甚至一生的時間．由此可知，空格處的語意為：贏得別人的信任是最具挑戰性的．故選C．
37．F理解概括題．本句是主題句，概括下文．根據后文"With whom will you share things that you don't want everyone to know？It would be with a close friend，whom you trust as much as you trust yourself．"可知如果你信任你的朋友，你將會和他們分享你的秘密．由此推知，空格處的語意為：如果你的朋友和你分享了他們的秘密，說明他們相信你．故選F．
38．B理解判斷題．根據上文內容可知，當你想征求他人意見時，最想找的是你的父母或朋友，下文答案接著給出找他們的原因是你知道他們不會害你．故選B．
39．D理解判斷題．根據本段第一句Arguments and heated discussions are a part of every relationship，and this is also true for friendship．可知爭論和熱烈討論是每種關系的一部分，而這種關系是真正的友情．答案中的信息與劃線部分信息吻合．故選D．
40．G細節理解題．空格處的上文中說到人生中有時候你會感到孤獨，下文則說真正的朋友絕不會讓你失望或沮喪．由此推知，該處為轉折關系，并且答案句的開頭又有提示詞However．故選G．
點評 七選五是一類完成性閱讀．在題型上與完型填空很類似．解題時，要在理解文章整體的情況下，充分考慮語境和空格前后的句子，注意句子之間的邏輯關系，尤其要學會把握信息詞（選項中出現的與文章中相同或相近的詞），快速準確的選出最符合文章原意的答案．
