Last week , my friends and I got together to eat delicious Asian chicken wings in our college. After dinner, I 【小题1】 (notice) that my friend Tom didn't want to leave and it seemed as if he needed 【小题2】 (we) company at that time.Earlier that night during dinner , he had said his secondyear in college was really rough，【小题3】 l asked him about his experience again.This time the floodgates of emotions opened. He shared with us problems of mental health he had been dealing 【小题4】 throughout the year.

Another friend and I were ready 【小题5】 (leave) , but we decided to stay and listen to Tom.We spent another 30 minutes 【小题6】 (listen) to his story of pressure， 【小题7】 (anxious) and depression.

After our talk , Tom felt 【小题8】 (thank) because we spent time with him and lent an ear.This experience showed me how being attentive and caring about others can 【小题9】 (true) make their day. It doesn't have to be 【小题10】 nice gift. Taking time to listen and care may be the best gift.

In Mark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, the friendship 【小题1】 was formed between Huck Finn and Jim is an important theme of the book, though they appeared to be an unlikely pair. Huck was a poor white boy 【小题2】 father often beat him, while Jim was a black slave 【小题3】 longed to be free. One day, Huck ran away from home to an island. There he met Jim and made friends with him. Then they left the island together on a raft 【小题4】 they found on the Mississippi River. They headed north to Illinois, a state in which Jim could become free. The high point of the story came when Huck was faced with the decision of whether to hand Jim over to some slave catchers. In the end, Huck decided that Jim was the friend 【小题5】 he needed and valued, and refused to give him up. From this story we can see that friends are people 【小题6】 support you through thick and thin.

Michael Todd was found in the same clothes every day. When the other kids began to notice that he【小题1】（wear）the same black pants and blue shit day after day, Todd,【小题2】freshman at a high school in Memphis, became the target of offensive remarks and laughter.【小题3】there was little Todd could do. His mother【小题4】（simple）couldn’t afford to buy him new clothes.

Two of the kids were Antwan Garrett and Kristopher Graham, a pair of freshman football players. But over time, they realized that their【小题5】（friendly）words felt like bullying（欺负） and seemed to be slowly destroying Todd spirit. They decided to do something, so they went home and hunted through their own drawers and closets. The next day at school, they asked Todd to come into the hall. Todd was understandably worried about【小题6】（call）out by the larger boys.

“He wasn’t smiling or anything, and I was like, ‘I think this is going to make you smile,’” Graham says. “I told him, ‘I’d like to make an apology for laughing at you, and I want to give something to you to make【小题7】up.’”

He then handed Todd a large bag, inside【小题8】were clean shirts and shorts, plus a brand-new pair of New Balance sneakers. Todd was blown away: “I was very happy.” he told WANT-TV. “【小题9】（shock）, completely.”

And Todd got much more than a new wardrobe. Now he eats with his new friends, Garrett and Graham. “I’ve been bullied my entire life,” Todd told CBS News.【小题10】（reflect）on the day when Garrett and Graham called him into the hall, he added, “The best day of my entire life, basically.”
