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
37．A．uneasy                          B．uncertain                     C．uninteresting              D．unbearable

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?
