【解析】

本文主要講述友誼，很多人都希望友誼長存，但是即使是最好的友情也會走向結(jié)束。有時(shí)是由于個(gè)人性格或者生活方式的變化導(dǎo)致的；有時(shí)是由于兩者的不一致和搬家導(dǎo)致的；無論是什么原因，我們都不要沉溺于痛苦之中，開始新的友誼吧。

【1】句意：他們期望友誼長存。

A. hope希望；B. expect期望；C. decide決定；D. make使。固定搭配expect sb to do sth期望某人做某事，故選B。

【2】句意：不幸的是，即使最好的友誼也會結(jié)束。

A. Unfortunately不幸的是；B. Luckily幸運(yùn)地是；C. Then然后；D. So所以。根據(jù)last forever和can end兩者之間為轉(zhuǎn)折，故選A。

【3】句意：隨著時(shí)間的流逝，許多友誼結(jié)束由于性格或生活方式的改變。

A. interest興趣；B. experience經(jīng)歷；C. change改變；D. suggestion建議。根據(jù)slowly loses importance可知，慢慢的失去重要性，發(fā)生緩慢的改變，故選C。

【4】句意：有時(shí)，友誼突然中止由于意見不一致或搬家。

A. break down破裂；B. break away掙脫；C. break off突然中止；D. break out爆發(fā)。根據(jù)a disagreement or move to another place可知，友誼不能再繼續(xù)下去，即中止，故選C。

【5】句意：從那時(shí)起，我們幾乎不打電話，越來越少的見面。

A. often經(jīng)常；B. seldom幾乎不；C. always一直；D. never從不。根據(jù)We met less and less.可知，搬家之后幾乎不打電話，見面也越來越少，故選B。

【6】句意：我們兩個(gè)人都一直為新工作奮斗著，所以沒有保持聯(lián)系。

A. at在……；B. by通過；C. on在……上；D. in在……里。本空固定搭配“和……保持聯(lián)系”keep in touch with，故選D。

【7】句意：我們的友誼已經(jīng)死亡，以至于我回家了都沒有給他打電話。

A. even if 即使；B. as if 好像；C. what if如果……怎么樣；D. only if只有。本題表示即使我回家了，也沒有給他打電話，故選A。

【8】句意：一般來說，如果朋友都保持像他們一開始遇到的那樣不變的話或者在相似的方向改變的話，朋友將會接受彼此。

A. strange奇怪的；B. true正確的；C. real 真正的；D. impossible不可能的。本句話在闡述作者的觀點(diǎn)，這件事是正確的，故選B。

【9】句意：無論是為什么，什么時(shí)候或者怎樣友誼結(jié)束的，總會有失去的痛苦。A. little幾乎沒有；B. some一些；C. any任何；D. no沒有。根據(jù)常識，可知，當(dāng)一段友誼結(jié)束的時(shí)候，我們總會感覺到一些痛苦，故選B。

【10】句意：然后繼續(xù)去建立新的友誼。

A. to building去建造；B. build建造，動詞原形；C. to build去建造，不定式；D. built建造，過去分詞。根據(jù)繼續(xù)做別的事情move on to do sth，故選C。
