“Friends are the family you choose” Do you know why? A new study by Yale University and the University of California San Diego can give us some reasons.

Scientists studied the genes(基因) of almost 2, 000 people. Some of these people were friends, others were simply strangers. Scientists found that friends had more genes in common than strangers. Pairs of friends had similar genes as people do with a distant relative(远亲). This is about the human genome(人类基因组). Although l% may not sound like much to geneticists(遗传学), it is an important number.

“Most people don’t even know who their distant relatives are, yet we are somehow able to choose people who are like our relatives as friends.” Nicholas Christakis, a social scientist at university told Live Science. This might be because similar genes make people visit similar places, or similar genes mean people will have similar skills.

The most common gene that friends have is the “olfactory” gene. It affects(影响)a person’s sense of smell. Imagine that you and someone else both like the smell of trees. You may often visit a park. Therefore, you may likely meet that other person and become friends.

As a result of the study, scientists set an interesting test called the “friendship source”. The test can tell whether two people could be friends by studying their genes.

Do you want to know who will be your friends with the help of the test?

29. According to the passage, how many people may not sound like much to geneticists among 2, 000 people? A.10. B.20. C.100. D.200. 30.

D.more genes in common than distant relatives

31. What’s the meaning of “olfactory” in the passage? A.听觉的 B.视觉的 C.嗅觉的 D.触觉的 32. Where can the passage most probably be found?

A.In an advertisement B.In a fairy tale C.In a science magazine D.In a guide book
