9、nsionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1“You can choose your friends, but you cant choose your family.” That line comes from American writer Harper Lees book To Kill a
10、Mockingbird. Now compare her words to another famous expression: “Blood is thicker than water”.However, if forced to choose which is more important, American researchers now say friendship is more important than family.

Family, on the other hand, will always be with you. They can be hel
