As an old Chinese saying went: A bosom friend (知己) is very hard to get in life. Indeed, while we may meet many people in our lifetime, the number of really friends we make is usually very small. And, why is that?
According to Science Daily, a persons friendships are determined by an amount of time and effort they devoted to them.
People, on average, form a very close relationship with three to five people, frequently interacting with 30 to 35 people, and know the names of around 100 people. In other words, we “interact at a regular basis with about 150 people”, reported Science Alert.
“It is not impossible to have relationships with 150 people and for them all to be intimate (亲密的). Therefore because one has a large number of relationship, it may mean that they are almost all superficial (浅薄的).” Ignacio Tamariti, lead author of the study, told Science Daily.

【解析】
本文是说明文。人生难得一知己，本文介绍了其原因。
小题1.考查时态。中国古话Chinese saying。表示格言名句要用一般现在时。故went改为goes。
小题2.考查形容词。真正的朋友们，形容词修饰名词。故really改为real。
小题3.考查连词。针对前面的现象进行提问：所以/但是为什么如此？，前后表示转折或因果。故And改为So/But。
小题4.考查冠词。根据句意“一个人的友谊是由他对友谊所投入的时间和精力所决定的”，此句表示特指用定冠词。故an改为the。
小题5.考查时态。根据前面的are得知要用一般现在时。故devoted改为devote。
小题6.考查谓语动词。根据form和and know得知这里是并列动词。故interacting改为interact。
小题7.考查介词。以…...为基础on a basis,是固定搭配。故at改为on。
小题8.考查形容词。根据句意“和150个人建立亲密关系并不是不可能的。”不可能用impossible或not possible来表示。故去掉not/把impossible改为 possible。
小题9.考查连词。根据句意“如果一个人有很多关系，就会被认为是浅薄的。”条件状语从句表示如果。故because改为if。
小题1.0考查名词。根据a number of 表示许多的，后面用名词复数。故relationship改为relationships。
