Part III Choosing Five Out of Seven (1 points each, 5 points)

Directions: In the following passage, some sentences have been removed. For questions 51 to 55, choose the most suitable sentence from choices A to G to fit into each of the numbered blanks. There are two extra choices, which do not fit the blanks. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on The Answer Sheet.

A dictionary contains a definition of friendship somewhere in the F’s between the words “fear” and “Friday”. An encyclopedia supplies interesting facts on friendship. But all the definitions and facts do not convey what friendship is really all about. 51)______It is an experience that involves all senses.

52)______ It is seen in an old couple sitting in the park holding hands. It is the way they touch, a touch as light as a leaf floating in the autumn air, a touch so strong that years of living could not pull them apart. Friendship is seen in a child freely sharing the last cookie. It is the small arm over the shoulder of another as they walk on the playground. Seeing friendship is not casual. It is watching for subtlety, but friendship is there for eyes that can see.

53)______ It is heard in the words of two friends squeezing in lunch together on an extremely busy day. It is the way they walk each other, not the words. Their tone is unique. Friendship can be heard by those willing to listen.

Friendship is felt in a touch. It is a pat on the back from a teammate, a high five between classes, the slimy, wet kiss from the family dog. It’s a touch that reassures that someone is there, someone who cares. The touch communicates more than words or gestures. It is instantly understood and speaks volumes beyond the point of contact, to the heart.

Friendship has a taste. 54)______, the ingredients all measured and planned, then carefully mixed and kneaded, then the quiet waiting as the dough rises. Hot from the oven, the bread tastes more than the sum of its ingredients. There are something else there, perhaps the thoughts of the baker as her hands knead the dough, or her patience as she waits for the dough to rise. Unseen and unmeasured, this is the ingredient that makes the difference. Warm, fresh from the oven with a little butter, the difference you taste is friendship.

Finally, more than other senses, friendship is an experience of the heart. 55)______--- a language without words, vowels, or consonants; a language that, whether seen, felt, heard, or tasted, is understood by the heart. Like air fills the lungs, friendship fills the heart, allowing us to experience the best life has to offer: a friend. A. Friendship has a smell. B. It is the language of the heart.
