    阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
         Few Americans stay in one a place for a lifetime. We move from the city to the suburbs (郊区), from
    high school to college in a different state, from a job in one area to a better job elsewhere, from the home
    where we raise our children to the home where we plan to live in retirement. With each move we are forever
    making new friends, who become part of our new life.
         For many of us the summer is a special time for forming new friendships. Today, millions of Americans
    go on vacation abroad, and we go not only to see new sights but also in those places where we don't feel too
    strange with the hope of meeting new people. No one really expects a vacation trip to produce a close friend,
    but the beginning of a friendship is possible. Surely in every country people value friendship.
         The word "friend" to American people can be applied to a wide range of relationships-to someone one has
    known for a few weeks in a new place, to a close business companion, to a childhood playmate, to a man or
    a woman, or to a trusted colleague. There are real differences among these relations for Americans a friendship
    may be shallow, casual, situational or deep and lasting. But to a European, who sees only our surface behavior,
    the differences are not clear.
         As Europeans see it, all kinds of "friends" flow in and out of Americans' homes with little ceremony. They
    may be parents of the children's friends, house guests of neighbors, members of a committee, business
    associates from another town or even another country. Coming as a guest into an American home, the
    European visitor finds no obvious landmarks. The atmosphere is relaxed. Most people, old and young, are called
    by first names. Americans' characteristic openness to different styles of relationship makes it possible for us to
    find new friends abroad with whom we feel at home.
