   Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take the friendship for granted, we often don’t clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few for example, the average among students is about 6 per person. In all the cases of friendly relationship, two people like one another and enjoy being together , but beyond that, the degree of intimacy between them and the reasons for their shared interest vary greatly. At the beginning, much depends on how people meet, and on good first impressions. As we get to know people we take into account things like age, race, economic condition, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of prime importance, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background.
   We pay attention to actual behavior, facial expression, and the way a person speaks. Friends will stand closer together and soft voices also express friendliness, and it is because they may give the wrong signals that shy people often have difficulty in making friends. A friendly look with the wrong facial expression can turn into an unfriendly stare, and nervousness may be wrongly understood as unfriendliness.
   Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, to have attitudes and interests in common they often talk about "being on the same wavelength" (志趣相投). It generally takes time to reach this report. And the more intimately involved people become, the more they rely on one another. People want to do friends favors and hate to break a promise. Equally, friends have to learn to put up with annoying habits and to tolerate differences of opinion.
   In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful bond, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers of age, class or race.
Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 3 ?
选项 A、Tolerance is vital to friendship.
B、Friends are usually interdependent.
C、Friends do not rely financially on each other.
D、Annoying habits are worse than promise breaking.
答案B
解析 根据题目可定位到第三段。通读该段，将四个选项与原文一一匹配。该段提到：人们之间关系越密切就会越相互依赖。人们希望助朋友一臂之力，不愿意违背诺言。同样，朋友之间要学会容忍对方恼人的习惯，容忍双方的观点差异。由此可知，A、C、D项在该段中并未提及。B项中interdependent意为“相互依赖的”，与原文表述一致。因此该题正确答案为B。
