Alice, my friend’s daughter, goes to an expensive private school where she has a friend, Jane, who is on a full scholarship at this school. Jane has   36   economic resources—her father has been dead for years and her mother works   37   a maid. Although her mother works very hard, she can   38   support the family. Jane is very bright and gifted at   39   and that’s how she has got the scholarship, which included a(n)   40   for things like lunch, school uniform and music lessons.

Alice became friends with Jane and would   41   talk to her at lunch. She did it that way in order to avoid the other kids   42   her. 

On her birthday last month, she   43   her new friend to her birthday party, but Jane said she couldn’t come. Alice wanted her to be   44   so much that she   45   on her coming. Eventually, the girl said, “I don’t have any   46   clothes that I could wear at your birthday party.” After a brief pause, the girl remembered, “I have a   47   from my piano performance,” and asked, “Could I   48   a skirt from you?”

Finally, Alice explained to her Mother her friend’s   54  .  Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said, “Yes.” She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with Jane but to feel proud of her   55   with her.
