　　Chuck was thirteen when he came home from the hospital．He came home not because he was getting better but because he wanted to be with people he knew and loved when he died．I came by the house to visit him and his family several times a week during his treatment．On most of my visits, Chuck was very weak．But the last time I saw him alive, he was awake．“I have got something for you．” He pulled out a piece of crumpled(弄皱的)paper from under his pillow．“I want you to give this to my mom and dad after I die．You'll know when it's right, I guess, won't you? ”

　　“What is it? ” I asked．“It's a list of all the fun we had, and all the happy time when we laughed．” I almost gasped in great surprise．

　　“Like what? ” I asked quietly, trying to regain my calmness．

　　“Like the time when Mom, Dad, Chrissie, Linda and me were dressed up as fruits and Dad was driving us to a costume party．Dad was a bunch of grapes and I was an apple, and the others were different things like bananas and pears．”

　　And a policewoman pulled Dad over for speeding．When the policewoman came up to the car, she looked and started laughing so hard that she could hardly stand up．And we all started laughing and she said, “Where are you all heading-a salad bar? ” Dad said he was sorry to be speeding, but his kids were getting so ripe(成熟的)that they were starting to draw flies．And she laughed till she had to take off her dark glasses and wiped tears from her eyes．”

　　Chuck laughed and so did I．The list was full of laughing and fun．What a wonderful gift, I thought．

(1)

　　When I was about 12, I had 1 , a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings. Week by week her list 2 ; I was skinny, I wasn't a good student, I was boyish, I talked too loud, and so on. I 3 her as long as I could. At last, with great anger, I ran to my father 4 .

　　He listened to my outburst(爆发) 5 . Then he asked, “Are the things she says true or not?”

　　True? I wanted to know how to strike back. What did 6 have to do with it?

　　Mary, didn't you ever wonder what you are really 7 ?Well, you now have that girl's 8 . Go and make a list of everything she said and 9 the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.

　　I did as he directed and discovered to my 10 that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change (like being skinny) , 11 a number I could-and suddenly wanted to- 12 .

　　For the first time in my life I got a fairly 13 picture of myself.

There is one thing better than making a new friend, and that is keeping an old one.
——Elmer G Letterman
Two years ago my family moved. The day we left, my best friend and I cried together in my 36 bedroom for hours. I was miserable during the five-hour car ride to my new house. Life was 37 ．
On the first day of school, I called my best friend to tell her how it had gone. Then on Halloween, I sent her a letter and a picture of my new friends and me．
Finally, she wrote me a letter. It wasn’t 38 a letter—a piece of paper saying, “Best friends forever”．
When I finally got her e-mail address, I e-mailed her the 39 letter I have ever written. After the third e-mail with no 40 , my messages grew shorter and shorter. 41 each passing day, my 42 grew．I never received a reply from her．
Mom said that I 43 try calling my other friends, and that I didn’t need to always call her. 44 my best friend, the girl that I had known from my childhood?
My first 45 was automatic．“No way!” But after five more e-mail messages, I started to consider what my mom had 46 ．Every night for about a week, I stayed up in bed, 47 , “Should I keep trying or．．．?”
The way I looked at it was that: if I’m her best friend, she’d 48 a minute to push a few buttons on the phone, or type a short “hello” on the computer. To me, keeping in touch is part of being a friend and it is important. To her, it really didn’t seem to 49 ．
After two years of 50 , I finally got a phone call from her—my best friend. It was a big 51 ．She told me how sorry she was for not writing, and about how busy she had been. I forgot about everything that had happened and how annoyed I had been with her．I 52 her．I guess keeping in touch just isn’t her 53 ．
I have realized true friends never really lose their special 54 ．Even after two years, it felt like we had just talked yesterday.
Now she and I write regularly—or at least she tries to, 55 she tries hard.
What more could a friend ask for?
36．A．cold                                B．empty                           C．small                             D．dirty

40．A．return                           B．information                 C．message                      D．response
