Old friends
They finish your sentences, they remember the cat that ran away when you were twelve, and they tell you the truth when you’ve had a bad haircut. But mostly, they are always there for you — whether it’s in person or 36 late night phone calls — in good times and 37 . But as the years pass, it becomes increasingly 38 to see each other, to make new memories. 39 , my high school friends and I promised long ago not to let this happen. We promised to have reunions.
　　A few months ago, we met up for a two-day 40 in the American Southwest. We grew up together in Maine and have said for years that we should have a(n) 41 event, yet it’s often put off or 42 due to schedule conflicts. Not this year.
The weekend 43 long talks by the pool, wonderful meals, and a hike that brought the entire group to 44 . Not tears of sadness or anger, but an outpouring of emotion over the complete wonderment that we can be this close — twelve years after graduation — with such physical 45 between us. It’s heartbreaking that we can’t spend our days together in the same neighborhood, walking the same streets, reading the same newspaper at the same coffee shop. But that’s 46 . Grown-up life.
Most 47 is the group’s adaptability to one another. The time we spend 48 is non-existent. No need to get reacquainted (重新熟悉), we jump back in the saddle (车座) and it’s as comfortable as ever. Old friends — friends with an ever-present 49 of support and sisterhood, friends that know each other innately (天生地) — are hard to come by and yet we remain as 50 today as we were, years ago, giggling (咯咯地笑) in the back row of Mr. McKechnie’s 9th grade math class.
Life today, 51 , is no math class. Our world is full of 52 , full of fear. Yet it 53 me — now, more than ever — how important it is that we stay 54 . We may have questions about our future, but we have true faith in our past, and though this 55 of friends has come to a close, we are already drawing up plans for the next one.

B
A U.S. dad quit his job, giving up a massive salary, after his 10-year-old daughter gave him a 22-point list outlining all the events he missed so far during the year. As the CEO of the $2 trillion global investment fund PIMCO, Mohamed El-Erian shocked the finance industry when he quit in January.
El-Erian said it was about a year ago when he was repeatedly asking his daughter to brush her teeth, but she wasn’t listening. When he asked her why, she responded with a list of 22 milestones he had missed: like the first day of school and the first soccer game of the season.
“And the school year wasn’t yet over,” El-Erian wrote. “I felt awful and got defensive: I had a good excuse for each missed event! Travel, important meetings, and urgent phone call, sudden to-dos. But it dawned on me that I was missing an infinitely more important point. My work-life balance had gotten out of whack, and the imbalance was hurting my very special relationship with my daughter. I was not making enough time for her.” El-Erian explained he was struggling with the same thing so many parents do—work-life balance.
Dads who are quitting their profit-making jobs to improve work-life balance is a subject that is getting more traction as some high-profile executive have recently written about their experiences.
Last month, former MongoDB CEO Max Schireson wrote a blog post for Time about his decision to step down from the company’s top job. He wrote that he struggled to make time for his three children because he was flying around half a million kilometres a year for work.
“I was not with my kids when our puppy was hit by a car, or when my son had an emergency surgery,” Schireson wrote.
On an overnight flight to Texas he woke up in Arizona to discover the plane made an emergency landing and some traumatized crew members had to be replaced. He decided it was time to address his work-life balance.
Quitting is something El-Erian and Schireson were financially able to do, but El-Erian recognizes most people don’t have this luxury. He hopes companies will pay attention to improving work-life balance for their employees.
El-Erian now manages “a portfolio of part-time jobs” that don’t require as much travel. He alternates mornings with his wife taking their daughter to school and he often picks her up from school.
“So far, it’s been the right decision for me,” he wrote. “I’m so grateful that this is providing me greater opportunity to experience key moments in my daughter’s life before they’re all too quickly gone.”
58. El-Erian resigned from PIMCO mainly because ________.
A. his daughter has been missing him badly
B. he was getting bored with the endless flights
C. he hoped to get his daughter to listen to her
D. he wanted to experience his daughter’s milestones
59. What does the underlined part “most people don’t have this luxury” probably mean?
A. Most people don’t like their jobs.
B. Most people have to work for financial security.
C. Not all dads have a 10-year-old daughter. 
D. Not all dads face the problem of work-life balance.
60. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. It’s never too late to see children grow up healthily.
B. Many working parents can balance their career and family life well.
C. CEOs are occupied with work and have no time for their family.
D. Parents’ love cannot be replaced by money or jobs.

C
