22、I love turtles(龟), but I haven't cared for them well. So please read the following before deciding on buying one.

You don't have enough room. Turtles need a lot of room to live happily. But this doesn't mean you should let them play freely across your house.

You can't give your turtle enough food. Most turtles eat both meat and plants. Whatever you do, don't think you can feed your pet the only food from a pet store, which is a death sentence(死刑)．

You can't offer right temperature. Once, I bought a turtle that was not put into a box. It died a few days later. In fact, the box can give it a good temperature.

You want an expensive pet for a status(身份) symbol. This may be the worst reason to buy a turtle. It means your heart is not on it, and you will not be taking all the steps necessary to care for the pet.

23、   Spain is famous for its tomato festival, called La Tomatina. It happens in a small town on the last Wednesday of August every year.

24、   In this age of Facebook and Twitter, we are all supposed to have hundreds of friends. But in fact most of us have just two close friends — down from an average(平均水平) of three 25 years ago, a study says.

Researchers (研究者) say there is no need to worry about that. Instead, they say that while some of us may be getting “more vulnerable (脆弱的)”, many are becoming better at deciding who is their close friend.

The result seems unexpected. Because a lot of young people are trying to make as many “friends” as possible on the Internet.

According to Facebook, the average user usually has 130 friends, but many of these are people who are known by accident or people the user will never meet in real life.

But the researcher, Mr. Brashears says, although the circle(圈子) of friends is getting smaller, which may make us more vulnerable, we’re not as “lonely” as the result shows.

For his study, Mr. Brashears did a survey in more than 2,000 adults aged 18 and older. He found that, modern discussion networks have been smaller in size. It is the same as other researchers’ findings, but few people have become lonelier.

Researchers asked people to list the names of people they had discussed important matters with over the past six months. About 48% of them listed one name, 18 % listed two, and about 29% listed more than two names for these close friends.

On average, one person had 2.03 close friends. And just over 4% of them didn’t list any names.

【1】According to the study, how many close friends do most of us have?

A.25. B.2. C.3.

【2】The underlined word “unexpected” probably means “________” in the passage.

A.有趣 B.令人兴奋 C.意外

【3】About Facebook friends, which of the following is TRUE?

A.The Facebook user never meet some Facebook friends in real life.

B.The average user usually has 310 friends.

C.Facebook friends are all old and close friends.

A.Many people are worrying about their circle of friends.

B.Researchers find many people have only two close friends.

C.Young people make as many friends as possible on the Internet.
