Studies of friendship seem to implicate more complex factors. For example, one function friend-ship seems to fulfill is 【C1】______ it supports the image we have【C2】______ ourselves, and【C3】______ the value of the attitudes we hold. Certainly we appear to【C4】______ ourselves onto our friends; several studies have shown that we judge them to be more like us than【C5】______. This suggests that we ought to choose friends who are similar to us【C6】______ than those who would be【C7】______ ("opposites attract"), a prediction which is supported by【C8】______ evidence, at least so【C9】______ as attitudes and beliefs are【C10】______. In one experiment, some developing friendships were【C11】______ amongst first-year students living in the same hostel. It was found that similarity of【C12】______(towards politics, religion and aesthetics) was a good predictor of【C13】______ friendship would be established by the end of four months, though it had less to do with initial【C14】______—not surprisingly, since attitudes may not be obvious on first inspection.
The difficulty of linking friendship【C15】______ similarity of personality probably【C16】______ the complexity of our personalities; we have many【C17】______ and therefore require a disparate group of friends to support us. This of course can explain why we may have two close friends who have little in【C18】______, and indeed dislike each other. By【C19】______ large, though, it looks as though we would do well to choose friends who【C20】______ us.
【C1】

A. that
B. which
C. what
D. if

听力原文: Social insects live in integrated communities which in some ways are similar to human communities. In both types of community there is division of labor. In insect societies, certain insects are responsible for reproduction; the workers collect food While the soldiers defend the colony. In the same way human groups such as farmers and shopkeepers have specialized functions in producing goods and providing services to the community.
Insect and human societies are also alike in that individual members of the community work together. White ant workers coordinate their efforts to build nests. Similarly, in human societies, engineers, architects, town planners and construction workers unite to build cities.
The nests of social insects are as complex as a man-made city. In some insect nests special accommodation is provided for the young and for food storage. Many nests also have devices for regulating the temperature. So insect nests are as functional as human houses.
It is not surprising, therefore, that many analogies have been made between social insects and human societies. It must not be forgotten, however, that insects' social behaviors are determined by innate instinctive mechanisms. Insects show no capacity for learning or for developing a social tradition based on learning.
