Mei and Xia were best friends since primary school. They did everything together—studying, eating lunch, and sharing secrets. They thought their friendship would 121 forever. But then, a misunderstanding (误会) brought them to a painful period. It started when Mei won a writing competition. Xia was happy for her, but something changed inside. She felt a strange feeling—jealousy (嫉妒). When Mei tried to 122 her excitement, Xia was cold and said, “It’s just a small school prize. No big deal.” Mei was hurt by Xia’s 123 . She didn’t understand why her best friend couldn’t be happy for her. Days passed, and they 124 talked. The silence between them grew.
Mei tried to reach out, but Xia pulled away. “Maybe she never 125 liked me,” Mei thought sadly. Xia, on the other hand, felt guilty (内疚的) but didn’t know how to 126 it.

Their friendship deepened. They started to share more about their insecurities (不安全感) and dreams. They found that by being open, they could help each other 133 .

A New Way of Communication in the Digital Age
In today’s fast-paced world, communication has changed more than we could ever imagine. We no longer only use face-to-face talks or handwritten letters. Instead, all kinds of digital tools have become part of our daily lives, 191 finding the right way to connect still matters a lot.
Jason once had a fight with his best friend. They 192 messages back and forth, but the words on the screen only made things worse. “Texting has no emotions,” Jason said later. He didn’t know 193 to fix their friendship until he asked a professor for advice. The professor told him that a face-to-face talk usually 194 best, for it lets people see each other’s expressions and hear the tone of voice.
If you 195 meet your friend in person right away, calling is a better choice than texting. Sometimes, even a short call can clear up 196 that take hours to work out online. And if the talk gets heated, it’s wise to take a break and come back when both sides are calm.
For those who are shy, writing down feelings can be a good start. It allows people to organize their thoughts 197 and avoid impolite words. But remember, no tool is perfect. 198 you choose to communicate, always be careful with your words—they can build a relationship or break it.
What’s interesting is that young people now 199 digital devices (电子设备) to have communication—video calls for family, voice notes for friends, and emails for work. They’ve learned that relationships need 200 ways of connecting. In the end, the best communication isn’t about the tool you use, but about the care you put into it.

During rehearsals (排练), we faced many problems. One day, I forgot my 203 completely. Instead of laughing at me, my classmates patiently helped me practice. Slowly, I learned to control (控制) my 204 and focus on the story. The more we worked together, the more 205 we would be.
On the final day, just before stepping onto the stage, I noticed Emma shaking her head. I walked over and said, “Don’t worry. We’re a team.” The smile I gave her 206 her that we were all in this together. The performance went smoothly, and when we finished, all the students cheered 207 .
This experience taught me something important: Success doesn’t come from being perfect but from 208 each other. Now, whenever I feel weak, I remember the power of teamwork. It’s like a key that can 209 any door.
I still keep the small medal we won—not because of its value, but because it 210 the memory of courage and friendship. And I’ll always remember our teacher’s words about teamwork.

【导语】主要讲述了孩子可能会因父母的频繁询问而觉得不被信任，父母询问孩子是想了解他们并维持亲密关系，但也存在部分父母因不信任而询问的情况，同时给出了孩子改善与父母交流的建议，即主动沟通、提供更多信息等。
71．句意：有时候她似乎并不信任我。实际上，我们大多数人都可能像凯蒂一样有过这样的经历。
根据前文的“Katie said, It’s crazy. Sometimes it seems that she doesn’t”以及语境，Katie觉得妈妈的行为很疯狂，似乎是妈妈不信任她，“trust”有“信任”之意。
72．句意：如果你平时话不多，父母就会问你问题，想弄清楚你一天里发生了什么。
根据此句“If you don't talk much, parents will ask you questions to…what happened in your day”的句意表达是父母问问题是为了弄清楚孩子一天中发生了什么，“find out”表示“弄清楚，查明”。
73．句意：似乎你的妈妈在窥探你的生活，但她只是想更多地了解你。
根据上下文，“It seems that your mom is prying into (窥探) your…”的语境，妈妈询问孩子各种事，像是在窥探孩子的生活，“life”是“生活”。
74．句意：她可能只是试图让关系保持亲密。
根据前文说你的妈妈窥探你的生活只是想更多地了解你，后句“She probably is just trying to keep the relationship… ”表达了妈妈询问孩子其实可能只是想让关系亲密，“close”有“亲密的”意思。
75．句意：然而，令人遗憾的是，有些父母在孩子陷入麻烦时询问问题，是因为他们不信任自己的孩子。
