Gabby sat in front of me in math class. At first, wedidn’t talk m 63 . But later that year, when we were both inthe school play, we became friends.”Like many people, Alexa and Gabby became friends for t64 main reasons. Research shows that we make friends withpeople who stay n 65 . (The person might be in a class withyou at school or in the same office where you work.) Later, Alexa and Gabby were both in the school play, and they found out a shared interest: acting. If two peoplehave something in common, this also raises the possibility that they will be friends.To become close friends with another person, though, two other factors are important. First, the two people should be able to share their o 66 thoughts and information with each other.A good friend will also be there to listen and give a hand at times when the other person needs it.Alexa recalls(回想起) how she and Gabby became close friends. “Acting in the play was really hard,” she says. “There were times when I thought about quitting(放弃). I never told other people this, but I could always talk to Gabby. She was very h 67 . She said things like, ‘Acting is hard, but you’re really good at it. I get nervous, too.’”Both Alexa and Gabby needed extra practice, so they decided to meet and study their lines together after school. “There was a café where we went every day.” Alexa recalls. “After the school play ended, we c 68 to spend time together and enjoyed ourselves—and even now, we’re still very close.”D. Answer the questions (根据以下内容回答问题) (7分，第74题为2分，第69~73题每题1分)Do you have the courage to climb mountains? Do you have a clear head to stay calm in an emergency(危急)? Would you know what to do if somebody broke their leg?Tamsen Bell, an eighteen-year-old girl from California in America, can answer yes to all those questions. She joined the Marine Search and Rescue Team when she was only 14 years old---the youngest age you can do this. She spent the hardest time in the team. She had to be trained for 60 hours to learn about first aid, climbing, map reading and rescue methods before she began to help others. But she achieved a lot from her teacher and teammates. The training gave her the confidence to do the job. Now she is one of 20 youth volunteers in the rescue team whose motto(座右铭) is “Any time, any place, any weather.” They are often called out in the middle of the night to help people who have got into trouble in the wild countryside of California. So she usually had to stay up and got up early the next morning.When Tamsen was 16 years old, she helped to rescue an old woman who had fallen 50 feet down a steep cliff(陡峭悬崖). The woman broke her neck and couldn’t move. What’s more, it was snowing heavily that afternoon and she had to cover the old lady with her own clothes. She had to stay with the lady for 8 hours until the rescue team could lift her carefully back up the mountain to safety. The next day she had to lie in bed because of the bad cold.It’s tough work, but Tamsen thinks it’s worth it. She says “The best part of the job is________ ________________________________________________________________.”69.
