Rose was my maid of honor when I married Dick. Later, Dick was stationed in Alaska and we moved. Rose was sad to see me leave, but wished me the best of luck. We remained in touch for a few years before we lost track. I thought of her several times over the years. All of my children now have families of their own, and Dick passed away a few years ago. Basically, a lifetime has passed. Then one day, near my 80th birthday, I received a phone call "Hi Natalie, it's Rose," the voice on the other end said, " I don't know if you remember me, but we used to be best friends in Jamaica Plain when we were kids." We have spent hours on the phone catching up. Even after 52 years of separation our personalities and interests are still extremely similar. We both share a passion for several hobbies that we each picked up independently several years after we lost touch with one another. It almost feels like we are picking up right where we left off. Her husband died a few years ago as well, but she mailed me several photographs of her family that were taken over the years. It's so crazy, just looking at the photos and listening to her description of her family reminds me of my own: a reasonably large, healthy family. Part of me feels like we led fairly similar lives. I don't think the similarities between our two lives are a coincidence either. I think shows that we didn't just call each other best friend; we truly were best friends and even now we can be best friends again. Real friends have two things in common: a compatible personality and a strong-willed character. The compatible personality is what starts the connection between two people. A strong-willed character at both ends is what maintains the connection. If those two ingredients are present in a friendship, the friendship is for real, It can pass the tests of time and...

Q: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: One day, Anna was about to walk into her office, when the headmaster, Mr. Henry stopped her. "Now," he said, "I want you to tell me the truth, my dear." "Naturally," said Anna shortly, fearing that something terrible had happened. "I have had a most serious accusation made against you by Mrs. Bond." "Mrs. Bond?" said Anna, not understanding. Janet Bond was a quiet, little mouse of a child. As far as Anna could remember,she had never had cause to speak an angry word to the girl. "Mrs. Bond," went on Mr. Henry, "tells me that you scolded her daughter yesterday afternoon." "Scolded?" cried Anna. "I don't scold. At least not in school," she added honestly. "Mrs. Bond's story is that Janet was a little late back to school in the afternoon. She said that the child had to spend some time in the bathroom, which meant she set out from home a little late." "Just a minute," said Anna, beginning to understand. "She did come late, very late. I had marked her absent, of course. Then she wandered in, when we'd started our paper--cutting, and I believe I said she was a nuisance . She didn't appear to hear, and was certainly quite cheerful." "Ah, a nuisance." Mr. Henry jumped on the word. "You're sure you only said a nuisance." "I may not even have said that," Anna replied. "It was no more than slight displeasure that I felt and I certainly didn't scold."? "Mrs. Bond said that you called her child a blasted nuisance. Is that true?" "Indeed it isn't," said Anna, "The child or the mother has made it up!" Mr. Henry was satisfied with Anna's explanation. "Just as I thought, my dear, but of course I had to make sure."
