参考答案

1.A　由第一段中的“...because she has been there for me all the time whenever I need a friend to talk to.”可知,每当作者需要帮助的时候Susie都会伸出援助之手,故作者把她当作难得的朋友。

2.D　由第二段中的“...I realised that she needed to keep a strict image in order for her actors and actresses to take her seriously.”可知Susie为了让演员们严肃对待她,她需要保持严肃的形象。故intimidating意为“令人害怕的”。

3.B　根据第三段中的“One day I searched the Internet without any purpose and to my surprise...”可知作者是偶然发现这个礼物的。

4.C　根据最后一段中的“...so that it’ll remind us that we’ll forever be friends.”可知作者这样做是为了让她们永远记住她们的友谊。
