Rather than discussing operas, Lewinsky, or the weather, we enjoyed just ____22____ each other without any one of us trying to outsmart the others. Still, I realize that these adults had a____23____ to be concerned about the direction my friends were____24____; I also was concerned for them, but I wasn't about to ____25____ them.
Many times I would advise my friends that some activity may be ____26____ or to think things through before doing something, but I would never claim to hold the moral high ground and to condescend(屈尊) to them. When Marvin would begin rolling joints, when Alisa would tell me she skipped school because of a hangover, or when Merriam would tell me that her new boyfriend was in a street gang, I expressed my discomfort with their ____27____. However, I never ____28____ them with the threat of taking my friendship away. Contrary to the commercials on television, you can have ____29____ who use drugs.
