After an unsuccessful relationship with Amit Sharmar, who ran away from me whenever I said hello to him, Sher Bhachu joined me, and we seemed to have a bit in common. So I made my first friend, and I wasn’t on my own any more! But after a few days, he broke his leg,and was off for a couple of months! I was on my own again!
Anyway, when Sher finally did return, I introduced him to another friend of mine, Graeme Parker. They got on like a house on fire, but unfortunately that little threesome ( 三人一组 ) only managed to last about a week or two before they had a bit of fight, and poor Graeme went his own way. Shortly after that we met and later joined with another gang. Others later joined at various stages,including: Chris Elemen, Venay Maru, Amandeep Vidhani, Yaser Ghauri and Paul Barrance. It was with these people that I spent most of my life in senior high school.

【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者步入高中后的交友过程。
1 .
细节理解题。根据第一段中的 “Leaving junior high school, and going up to the high school was a very frightening change for me. I went there with no friends.” 可知,离开初中升入高中对作者来说是一个非常可怕的变化,作者在那里没有朋友。 C 项(作者在没有朋友的新学校里感到害怕。)表述与此相符,故选 C 项。
2 .
细节理解题。根据第二段中的 “So I made my first friend, and I wasn’t on my own any more! But after a few days, he broke his leg, and was off for a couple of months! I was on my own again!” 可知,作者的在高中交的第一个朋友的腿断了,需要修养几个月,所以作者又是一个人了,故选 B 项。
3 .
推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,作者结交了 Sher 之后,认识了 Graeme ,尽管不久就不再是他的朋友了,他在不同的时期认识了 Chris Elemen, Venay Maru, Amandeep Vidhani 和 Yaser Ghauri 等,并与他们度过了高中阶段的大部分时间。由此可知,随着时光的流逝,作者交友越来越多,故选 A 项。
4 .
推理判断题。通读文章可知,作者以进入高中没有朋友开始为首段,到交到了很多朋友为尾段,中间一段则为交友的细节描述,可知作者写这篇文章主要就是讲述其步入高中后的交友过程,以及和朋友建立的友谊,故选 C 项。
【点睛】
解答写作意图题主要有两种方法:
1. 主旨推断法:写作目的是阐述作者为何要表达某个中心主题,因此可根据文章或段落的主旨推断作者的写作目的。比如第 4 小题就是通过每段段落的主旨推断出答案的。
2. 文体推断法:根据文体的特点来推断。不同体裁的文章有不同的写作目的,故事类记叙文的写作目的通常是使读者感到快乐 (to entertain) ;广告类应用文的写作目的是推销产品或提供服务( to persuade) ;议论文的写作目的是阐述论点 (to argue) ;科普类说明文的写作目的是介绍科学知识,使大家紧跟时代步伐 (to inform) 。
