12．（8分）Do you always feel lonely？When do you feel lonely？Is loneliness a good feeling？Nowadays more and more people are having this kind of feeling in their daily life.When someone feels lonely，he or she will have an experience of being alone because of low levels of social contact and relationships.
There are two kinds of loneliness：emotional loneliness and social loneliness.Emotional loneliness is about the relationship between parents and their children.When children leave their parents for a while，they usually show the pain，such as crying and trying to search for their parents.Therefore，emotional loneliness is caused by leaving a person that someone is close to，such as a parent.On the other hand，social loneliness is the loneliness that one experiences when he or she leaves a wide social network.One doesn't feel that he or she is a member of a group，or one doesn't have friends to talk to when he or she is sad.
Besides，loneliness is different from being alone.Being alone is about not having contact with people.But loneliness is a subjective experience：if people think they are lonely，then they are lonely.People can be lonely when they are alone，or in a group.What makes people lonely is the fact that they want more social interaction.People can be in a group and feel lonely because they don't get to talk to enough people.On the other hand，one can be alone and not feel lonely，though there is no one around him or her.That person is not lonely because maybe he or she doesn't want to have social interaction at that time.
So，what about you？Will you feel lonely if you stay alone？Or you just enjoy the time being with yourself.
.

D.They don't get on well with their parents.
（3）What does "a subjective experience" mean？

B.A person's own feeling.
C.A pain in the body.
D.A person's special plan.
（4）What can we learn from the third paragraph？ 　 　
A.One can be not lonely with nobody around.

12．（8分）Do you always feel lonely？When do you feel lonely？Is loneliness a good feeling？Nowadays more and more people are having this kind of feeling in their daily life.When someone feels lonely，he or she will have an experience of being alone because of low levels of social contact and relationships.
There are two kinds of loneliness：emotional loneliness and social loneliness.Emotional loneliness is about the relationship between parents and their children.When children leave their parents for a while，they usually show the pain，such as crying and trying to search for their parents.Therefore，emotional loneliness is caused by leaving a person that someone is close to，such as a parent.On the other hand，social loneliness is the loneliness that one experiences when he or she leaves a wide social network.One doesn't feel that he or she is a member of a group，or one doesn't have friends to talk to when he or she is sad.
Besides，loneliness is different from being alone.Being alone is about not having contact with people.But loneliness is a subjective experience：if people think they are lonely，then they are lonely.People can be lonely when they are alone，or in a group.What makes people lonely is the fact that they want more social interaction.People can be in a group and feel lonely because they don't get to talk to enough people.On the other hand，one can be alone and not feel lonely，though there is no one around him or her.That person is not lonely because maybe he or she doesn't want to have social interaction at that time.
So，what about you？Will you feel lonely if you stay alone？Or you just enjoy the time being with yourself.

【分析】本文主要讲述了孤独的概念及其类型。
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据Do you always feel lonely？When do you feel lonely？Is loneliness a good feeling？Nowadays more and more people are having this kind of feeling in their daily life.（你总是感到孤独吗？你什么时候感到孤独？孤独是一种好感觉吗？现在越来越多的人在日常生活中有这种感觉。）可知，作者在文章开头提出问题是为了使读者对文章感兴趣。故选C。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段Therefore，emotional loneliness is caused by leaving a person that someone is close to，such as a parent.On the other hand，social loneliness is the loneliness that one experiences when he or she leaves a wide social network.（因此，情感上的孤独是由离开一个亲近的人引起的，比如父母。另一方面，社交孤独是当一个人离开一个广泛的社交网络时所经历的孤独。）可知，他们都有一种孤独的感觉。故选C。
（3）语义猜测题。根据划线词后句if people think they are lonely，then they are lonely.（如果人们认为他们是孤独的，那么他们就是孤独的。）可知，孤独是一种主观体验。所以a subjective experience意为"主观体验"，即A person's own feeling。故选B。
（4）细节理解题。根据第三段On the other hand，one can be alone and not feel lonely，though there is no one around him or her.That person is not lonely because maybe he or she doesn't want to have social interaction at that time.（另一方面，一个人可以独自一人而不感到孤独，尽管他或她周围没有人。那个人并不孤独，因为也许他或她当时不想进行社交活动。）可知，没有人在身边，一个人也不会孤独。故选A。

That way I learned that if I held a bottle at the top with both hands，I could carry it without dropping it."四岁的时候，我试着从冰箱里拿一瓶牛奶。瓶子从我手里掉了下来，弄得厨房地板上都是牛奶。当我妈妈过来看到一片狼藉时，她没有生气地对我喊叫。相反，她说，"吉米，这真是一滩牛奶。嗯，在我们清理牛奶之前，你愿意下来在牛奶里玩吗？"所以我开始玩牛奶。几分钟后，我在妈妈的帮助下把它擦干净了。她接着说："现在我们到后院去，把瓶子装满水，看看你能不能拎着它而不掉下来。"这样我就明白了，如果我用双手把瓶子顶着，我就能拎着它而不掉下来。可知正确的顺序应该是1.吉米掉了一瓶牛奶2.吉米的妈妈来了，看到这里乱七八糟的3.吉米玩牛奶里。4.吉米在妈妈的帮助下擦地板。5.吉米学会了如何搬运瓶子而不掉下来。故选D.
