Losing Jenna would be like losing a very close sister. “Of course, we’ll still be friends when we’re eighty-two,” Jenna announced loudly. The next year, in Grade Four, we met Jamie. The three of us soon became close friends. We played together almost every day. I thought even time couldn’t pull us apart, but I was sadly mistaken. The three of us started fighting a lot. Before Christmas, We had a really big fight, and Jamie and Jenna were against me, both saying I was bossy (专横的). I felt helpless and lonely. I thought Christmas would be horrible! I was surprised when Jenna came to my house and gave me a terrible Christmas card she had made for me. I was so sure that she was still disappointed with me. “Wow,” I said, breaking the silence as we stood on either side of my front door. “Thanks.” “Okay…well… I have to go,” she said softly. “Okay. See you later then…” and I closed the door. “Who was that at the door?” my mom asked. The card started off with “Merry Christmas”, but then it said, “I am so glad we’re friends. I am sorry about what I said when we were fighting. A fight won’t stop us from being friends. Besides, we said we were going to be friends even when we’re eighty-two.” I stopped reading and started laughing. I couldn’t believe I had forgotten what she said that day in the back yard. I couldn’t believe I had been so selfish in trying to make my friends feel sorry for me. 51. The best title for this passage would be______________. A. Jenna and I B. Friends Forever C.
