Social media, the researchers said, has e____1____ younger people to have larger but more impersonal networks of "friends". But instead of trying to get more friends, they added, a better cure for loneliness might be spending time with those you're closest to. Researchers from the University of Leeds, UK, studied data from two online surveys of n____2____ 1,500 people. Those who participated in the survey gave details about their ages, social interactions, and how satisfied they were with their social lives. They included details of how often and how they interacted with family or neighbors, and whether they included people who p____3____ services for them in their networks. The researchers found that those who had a small number of close friends generally were happier than those who had a large number of superficial(关系浅的) friends. "Loneliness has l____4____ to do with the number of friends you have, and more to do with how you feel about your friends," said Dr. Bruine de Bruin, one of the researchers. "It's often the younger adults who a____5____ having negative perceptions(看法) of their friends. Loneliness happens in people of all ages," she added. "If you feel lonely, it may be more helpful to make a positive connection with a friend than to try and find new people to meet," she also said. In her study Dr. Bruine de Bruin found that older people had smaller social circles than young people, but the people in these circles were closer to them. Younger people, on the other hand, had bigger circles that were made up of "peripheral(外围的) others" —people who are not t____6____ friends, but just people they know. These so-called friends didn't influence the younger people's happiness. The results of the study show that the stereotypes(偏见) society has about old people being sad and lonely might not be right. "The research shows that older adults' smaller networks didn't have a bad influence on social satisfaction and happiness. A____7____, older adults had a better feeling of happiness than younger adults," said Bruine de Bruin. Based on these results, the study believes that people should pay more attention on the ties with close friends instead of increasing the number of friends. 答案：encouraged；nearly；provided；less；admit；true；Actually 句子分析： 1.Those who participated in the survey gave details about their ages, social interactions, and how satisfied they were with their social lives. 解释：who participated in the survey是定语从句，先行词是those。how satisfied they were with their social lives是介词about后的宾语从句。 2.They included details of how often and how they interacted with family or neighbors, and whether they included people who provided services for them in their networks. 解释：how often and how they interacted with family or neighbo ... ...
