Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给)

Question

Dear Dale,

My friend asked me to do something that’s against the rules. I wanted to say no, but I was afraid that she would get mad at me, so I did it anyway. Now she wants me to do it a 1.. How can I tell her no?

White Shirt

Answer

Dear White Shirt,

We never want to disappoint our friends, but we should never do things that we shouldn’t do just to make others happy.

Throughout your life, you will probably be asked to do things that you don’t think you should do. It sound like you could have a problem saying no to people, but rather than be direct(直接的), there are other ways to deal with this kind of s2..

Instead of simply saying “No”, try to give reasons for your d3.. For example, if a friend asked you to swim in the river but you don’t want to, you could say, “ I don’t think that’s wise. The water’s very cold and there’s n4. around to help us if we get into danger.”

It’s wrong of your friend to risk getting you into trouble. If she were a t5. friend, she wouldn’t ask you to break the rules. If she asks you to do something you don’t want to next time, just explain to her w6. you don’t want to do it. You should never do anything that you think is wrong.

Perhaps you friend was just looking for a bit of excitement, but if she wants to break the rules, she shouldn’t make you feel bad for not doing so.

If you really want to keep the friendship, tell her that you don’t want either of you to get into trouble. You are not supposed to break the rules, for rules exist simply to keep us safe. And it’s always better to be safe than s7., as the saying goes. Hope I can help you out.

Dale.

Answer the questions.(根据短文内容回答下列问题) ：

When Jan and Brian Dutcher moved to San Diego for Brian’s new job at San Diego State University, the neighbors smiled and introduced themselves. But there were no “ bring a plate” invitations, no car pooling for her daughters Liza, 12 and Erin, 15.

“The family really didn’t know each other, and we missed that,” says Jan. “We are far from relatives. Neighbors are our family.”

So Jan, an artist, decided to repeat a project she had done for Liza’s fifth-grade class: ask each person to paint his or her face on a big canvas(帆布). The finished piece would become the new family photo.

First , Jan painted a grid(网格) on the canvas and put it up in the garage with a table of paints nearby. Then whenever she was home, the “art room” door was up , with an open invitation for neighbors to paint. The first to stop in were kids riding by. “They thought it was cool,” says Jan, but the adults weren’t so keen. “ Most said they hadn’t picked up a paint brush since kindergarten,” she says. “They were afraid they’d mess it up.” But as word slowly spread, they came, some using their driver’s license photos as models.

Then something started to happen. They returned ---to see who had painted, or if they could recognize who was who. In Jan’s garage, they began to chat about schools, jobs, and families. Almost daily. Wendy, who lived across the street and was seriously ill, came in her wheelchair to watch the fun. Neighbors began to offer their support.

When the worst things happened and Wendy died, they stood by her husband, Bill and invited him over for dinners.

This year has been different in the neighborhood. Families take turns hosting happy hours. “We ‘re watching over each other now just like in the painting.” says Jan.

1.Why did the Dutchers move to San Diego?

2.Where did people paint, on a wall, a car or a canvas?

3.Who joined in the project first after a grid was done?

4.What did the adults in the neighborhood think of the project at first?

5.With the project on and on, what happened in and out of the garage?

6.How do you understand the underlined sentence“We’re watching over each other now just like in the painting”?
