JACQUES COHEN (; October 13, 1930 – December 1, 2016) was an Israeli actor.[1]

Biography

Cohen, who was born in Alexandria, Egypt, moved to Mandatory Palestine (present-day Israel) with his parents when he was just 5 years old.[2] The family settled in Jerusalem, where Cohen became an actor during his 20s.[3] Cohen first came to prominence with the amateur Circle Theater, in English, in Jerusalem, directed by Phillip Diskin. He played the lead in Jarry’s ‘Ubu Roi” for a year, 1965-1966. This was the first full length production to appear on the stage of the Tzavta Club in Tel-Aviv. He also performed the one-man play “Krapp’s Last Tape” by Samuel Beckett.

Cohen was best known for his starring role as Abu Rami, an Arab Israeli restaurant owner, on the sitcom _HaMis'ada HaGdola_, from 1985 until 1988.[4] The show, which aired for three seasons, was created to appeal to both Jewish and non-Jewish television viewers in the surrounding region.[5] Cohen, who was already an accomplished stage and television actor before _HaMis'ada HaGdola_, became so identified with his iconic role of Abu Rahmi that he later became a spokesperson for a major brand of hummus.[6] Cohen spoke fluent Arabic and Hebrew, allowing him to play characters in both languages.[7]

Cohen spoke Hebrew without an accent.[8] The dialogue for his best known role as restaurateur Abu Rahmi on _HaMis'ada HaGdola_ was mostly in Arabic, but also required lines in Hebrew, as well as other languages, including Japanese and Yiddish.[9]

He played a Lebanese government minister in the 1986 American action film _The Delta Force_.[10]

During the 2000s, Cohen opened his own restaurant in his hometown of Bitzaron.[11]

Death

Cohen died from complications of pneumonia at a hospital in Rehovot, on December 1, 2016, at the age of 86.[12] His death was announced by the country's Minister of Culture and Sports, Miri Regev.[13] Cohen, a resident of Bitzaron, was survived by his wife and three children.[14]

STEVEN FEIN is a professor of psychology in the Department of Psychology at Williams College in Williamstown, Massachusetts. Fein has two daughters named Alina and Hannah.[1]

He attended Princeton and the University of Michigan, where he received his Ph.D. in social psychology. His primary research interests are stereotypes and prejudice, suspicion and attribution theory, and how the media affects both men and women’s views of women.[2]

Experiments

One of Fein’s experiments, Hype and suspicion, examined the effects of pretrial publicity (PTP) on prejudice in jurors. In the context of the OJ Simpson trial, mock jurors were exposed to PTP, after which they tended to vote “guilty.” However, when the PTP indicated that the defendant was African American, the jurors became suspicious of a racist motive within the publicity.[3]

Another study by Fein and Spencer argued that self-image affects stereotypes and prejudice. They found that participants whose self-image was reinforced were less likely to view a member of a stereotyped group as negative. On the other hand, when self-image was threatened, those participants tended to degrade the stereotyped member, which bolstered their self-image.[4] Also, he has studied culture/ethnicity, media influences, interpersonal processes, self/identity, self-affirmation theory and social cognition.[5][6]

Fein also conducted a series of experiments that demonstrated how people's perceptions of political candidates can be influenced dramatically by the reactions of others around them. For example, in one experiment, subjects watched a tape of a Presidential debate between Ronald Reagan and Walter Mondale. In one condition, there was no manipulation of the tape. In another condition, two brief, amusing “soundbites” by Reagan that got a very positive audience reaction were edited out. In a third condition, the soundbites were left in, but the audience reaction was edited out. In the unedited condition, the large majority of subjects thought Reagan's debate performance was superior to Mondale's. In the condition in which the soundbites were cut out, the preference for Reagan was completely eliminated, showing how strong an effect a couple of jokes were to influence overall perceptions of a 90-minute-long debate. But the results were even more dramatic for the third condition. Here, with the soundbites left in, but the audience reaction cut out, the subjects overwhelmingly thought Mondale's overall debate performance was superior to Reagan's. This demonstrated that it wasn't what Reagan actually said that made the difference, but rather the perceptions of the audience's reaction to what he said that had the biggest impact. Without the validation of the audience's laughter and applause, Reagan's one-liners flopped rather than soared, and viewers were affected significantly by that.[7] This work was cited during the 2008 presidential debates between Barack Obama and John McCain when CNN showed a graph reflecting the reactions of a group of undecided voters live during the debates; Fein was quoted in numerous stories criticizing CNN for potentially influencing numerous voters in this way.[8]

Publications

Other publications by Fein include research on the role of arousal in stereotype threat,[9] suspicion and the fundamental attribution error,[10] and a study testing whether measuring the personalities of new medical students could predict what area of medicine they would specialize in several years later.[11] His two most cited papers are Steven Fein and Steven J. Spencer “Prejudice as Self-image Maintenance: Affirming the Self Through Derogating Others” in _Journal of Personality and Social Psychology_ 1997 Vol. 73, No. 1,31-44 (cited 932 times according to Google Scholar) and SJ Spencer, S Fein, CT Wolfe, C Fong “Automatic activation of stereotypes: The role of self-image threat” in _Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin_ November 1998 vol. 24 no. 11 1139-1152 (cited 308 times) [12]

In addition to the text _Social Psychology_, Fein co wrote other books including _Readings in social psychology: The art and science of research_ with Saul Kassin and _Motivated social perception: The Ontario symposium_, with S. J. Spencer, M. Zanna, and J. M. Olsen. He has also represented the American Psychological Association as well as the committee of the Society of Personality and Social Psychology.[13]

Fein also has co-hosted “Live From E Street Nation” with Dave Marsh on Sirius-XM's “E Street Radio” station on several occasions. One two of these occasions he has had the LA-based rock band, The Airborne Toxic Event, come on to the show for extensive interviews and live performances.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Summarize the findings of Fein's research into perceptions of political candidates.

answer: The experiments showed that the reactions of others are key to influencing how individuals perceive politicians. In one experiment, editing out positive audience reactions to a politician's jokes led to subjects overwhelmingly feeling that the politician's performance was inferior. By contrast, changes to the content of the politician's speech did not have such a dramatic effect.

text: Specify that the removal of jokes from the politicians speech had the discussed effects.

refinement: The experiments showed that the reactions of others are key to influencing how individuals perceive politicians. In one experiment, editing out positive audience reactions to a politician's jokes led to subjects overwhelmingly feeling that the politician's performance was inferior. By contrast, the removal of jokes from the politician's speech had a negative effect on perception, but less so than the other condition.

text: This isn't necessarily contrast.

refinement: The experiments showed that the reactions of others are key to influencing how individuals perceive politicians. In one experiment, editing out positive audience reactions to a politician's jokes led to subjects overwhelmingly feeling that the politician's performance was inferior. The removal of jokes from the politician's speech had a negative effect on perception, but less so than the other condition.

answer: Fein's research suggests that perceptions of politicians generally depend on the reactions they elicit in their constituents. When political candidates receive positive feedback from their audiences, the candidates tend to receive a higher evaluation. Conversely, when there is no audience reaction or the feedback is negative, the evaluation of the candidate declines. This research has implications for how election outcomes might be influenced.

answer: Fein has conducted a series of experiments that demonstrate how people's perceptions of political candidates can be influenced dramatically by the reactions of others around them. For example, experiments have shown that subjects tended to have more positive views of Ronald Reagan's debate performance when audience reaction was edited out of a tape; without the validation of laughter and applause, Reagan's one-liners flopped rather than soared. Results like these suggest that perceptions of a 90-minute-long debate can be influenced drastically by a few moments of humor. Furthermore, studies have demonstrated that media coverage of a candidate can have a significant impact in how people view them and their policies. These experiments demonstrate how reactivity to the perceptions of others can dramatically influence how people view political candidates.

text: This is incorrect. "positive" should be "negative".

answer: According to the article, one experiment shows how the reactions of others influence people's perceptions. To demonstrate this effect, people were asked what their perception of Ronald Reagan would have been if a fictional executive's responses to Reagan's jokes ("soundbites") were removed from a political debate tape. The general public preferred Reagan's answers in an unedited tape. However, when the source of the audience's laughter was removed, they preferred Mondale's performance. This proved that it wasn't what Reagan actually said that mattered as much as how people perceived it.

text: It should be specified that people didn't view Reagan as favorably without hearing his jokes, but were even less favorable with the laughter edited out.

refinement: According to the article, one experiment shows how the reactions of others influence people's perceptions. To demonstrate this effect, people were asked what their perception of Ronald Reagan would have been if soundbites of Reagan's jokes were removed from a political debate tape. The people viewed him less favorably in this scenario. The general public preferred Reagan's answers in an unedited tape. However, when the source of the audience's laughter was removed, they preferred Mondale's performance even more than the soundbite scenario. This proved that it wasn't what Reagan actually said that mattered as much as how people perceived it.

answer: Fein found that perceptions of political candidates can be influenced dramatically by the reactions of others seem around them. When editing tape in a way that seems to get a positive reaction from the audience, votes for the candidate being presented went up. When editing out either the laughter and applause or adding in positive clips to the soundbites individually, voters' perceptions seem to change dramatically.

refinement: Fein found that perceptions of political candidates can be influenced dramatically by the reactions of others  around them. In an experiment they showed a Presidential debate between Reagan and Mondale. In one condition, subjects tended to have more negative views of Ronald Reagan's debate performance when audience reaction was edited out of a tape.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Summarize Fein's key experiments mentioned in the passage.

answer: One of Fein's experiments focused on the effects of PTP on prejudices in jurors during the OJ Simpson trial. With the PTP indicating that the defendant was African American, jurors became more suspicious of a racist motive. Another study examined how self-image affected stereotypes and prejudice, finding that participants whose self-image was reinforced viewed a member of a stereotyped group more favorably. Another experiment of Fein's showed how political judgments were influenced by the reactions of others. For example, in a Presidential debate, audience reactions of a couple of brief amusing jokes were enough to change how most people thought about the debate's overall performance. Finally, another study by Fein looked at how arousal affects stereotype threat.

Additionally, Fein did experiments demonstrating how people's perceptions of political candidates can be influenced dramatically by the reactions of others around them.

answer: One experiment looks at the effects of pretrial publicity on jurors and whether they would be more or less likely to vote guilt. Another experiment looks at how personal self-image influences how an individual might see a member of stereotyped group positively or negatively. A third experiment mentioned concerns how perceptions of political candidates are influenced by audience reactions.

answer: His experiments about the effects of self-image, stereotypes and prejudice have had a large impact on what people think about political elections. When reflecting the reactions of a group of undecided voters during the debates, the experiments showed that people's perceptions of political candidates can potentially be influenced by the reaction of their audience. They also showed that the medium of people laughing has a strong influence on a person's perception. Further, they also showed that a person's self-image affects the types of stereotypes and prejudices they hold.

ERNEST AMBLER (November 20, 1923 – February 17, 2017[1]) was a British-American physicist who served as the Acting Under Secretary for Technology in the Department of Commerce (1988–89), as director of the United States' National Bureau of Standards (NBS, 1975–89), and as the first director of the United States' National Institute of Standards and Technology 1988–89.

Early life and education

Ernest Ambler was born in Bradford, England, in 1923. He received his bachelor of arts degree from the University of Oxford and went on to earn a D.Phil degree in 1953 from the same institution.[2][3]

Career

In 1953 Ambler began work in the Cryogenic Physics Section of the United States' National Bureau of Standards, becoming section chief in 1961. In his early years at the NBS, Ambler was principal collaborator with Chien-Shiung Wu on what became the Wu experiment. He was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1962.[4][5][6] He elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 1958.[7]

[Ernest Ambler is presented with the medal and diploma of the President's Award for Distinguished Federal Civilian Service in 1977.]

In 1973 Ambler was appointed deputy director of the NBS and, in 1975, served with NBS director Richard W. Roberts as the U.S. delegation to the 15th General Conference on Weights and Measures in France. Ambler assumed the position of acting director in 1975, following the departure of Roberts. In 1977 he was nominated to the office of Director of the National Bureau of Standards by President Jimmy Carter and was confirmed to the post by the U.S. Senate the following year.[8][9][10]

Ambler presided over the 1988 change of the NBS to the National Institute of Standards and Technology and became the first director of the new agency. Though he had announced his decision to retire effective April 1989, he agreed to a request by United States Secretary of Commerce William Verity to remain as director through the end of the year and to also accept appointment, on an acting basis, to the newly created position of Under Secretary for Technology in the Department of Commerce.[11][12][13]

Personal life

Ambler was naturalized as a United States citizen in 1957.[14] With his wife, Alice Virginia Seiler, he had two sons. He died at Hilton Head, South Carolina after a brief illness.

text:
On the last day she lived here we went to the sea. It was a dark grey summer morning and it was beautiful, like dusty broken glass, and the waves broke over the shore that was stained dark by the clouds overhead. Humidity hung low and heavy in the air, as palpable as the sand between our toes, but her smile filled the grey air around us and made the late summer chill a little bit warmer. She shivered in a one-piece; I danced circles around her in a summer dress and changed into a bikini behind the tallest rocks on the beach.

What’s the worst that could have happened that day? She had already died once, her heart sputtered and skipped like a car battery after a jump and restarted and she woke up in a hospital bed with cold hands, broken ribs, a totaled car, and family, nerve-wracked and hands wringing, in the waiting room. She told me that she saw the stars for a few seconds, dark and cold and farther away than they should have been, and the first thing that came back was sound, and she heard everything, but there was nothing she could do.

It could have been hours or minutes. We swam far out past the rocks, farther than I’d ever gone, and then she swam back and I sunk like a stone. It was dark underwater, and the sky dropped out from above me and the sand dropped out from below and all there was left was dark green brown mud, and it was the end of me, I was certain, and I knew I would be entombed in the sea. There were snakes there, coiling around my ankles, slimy and soft, and I kicked them away and kept kicking but the undertow pulled me further and further under and there were more, and more, until she grabbed a fistful of my hair and hauled me out from the ocean and pulled me onto the seashore.

When I woke up with the grey air all around me she was gone, and the sand between my toes was cold and wet and it was high tide and the sun peeked through jagged holes in the clouds above. When I hauled myself to my feet I ran to the tallest rocks on the beach, clambered up them, and dug my toes into the algae to try and hold on, and I looked out across the parking lots and fields and train tracks strewn all around me helter-skelter like the toys we used to share for as long as I could remember, and she was gone, she was gone and I was alone with the sea on a dark grey summer afternoon, with the seaweed and the rip tide that almost dragged me under and kept me there, and I pretended the tears on my cheeks were saltwater left over from when the ocean washed over me.

I walked the three miles home along the side of a highway without shoes on, and I didn’t see one car. I passed her house on the way back to mine and all that was left on the sidewalk was ripped-out floral wallpaper and her mother’s sweet jar, broken, and the vans were gone and the car was gone and the lights were off and the gate was locked and the lock was changed and the key I’d had to that lock since before I could talk had already sunk to the bottom of the ocean.

I tried to write her letters but they all came back returned to sender, and she never did send me her new phone number. I tried to look her up in her new city’s phonebook that I had to mail order specially, but all I could find was a hair removal specialist and a hair replacement specialist, so I gave up.

There were so many things I wanted to ask her, like if she remembered the time we danced to Björk in our underwear, or if she remembered all the cookies we stole out of that broken sweet jar, or if she had kept even a little scrap of the wallpaper that had covered her room that we covered in stickers and doodles and hearts. I wanted to know if she still listened to my mixtapes, shouting along to Hooked on a Feeling in her shitty old econobox Camry. I needed to know, so I tried and tried to find her, and I tried and tried and tried, but she was gone. Every day, she was as gone as when I first woke up on that grey sand beach, salt water rising in my throat and pouring out my eyes. So I gave up.

Even after all that, I did see her just once after our day at the beach. It was years past, and we were out of college then. We were at a train station in the city, and I saw her across the platform, immaculately clothed with hair pulled neat into a bun by countless bobby pins, and she saw me, comfortable but ragged in a summer dress I’d been wearing for years and drooping socks with frayed edges, and we sat together, and the silence settled around us and hung heavy on our shoulders. I asked her if she remembered the day by the seashore, and she asked me if I remembered the day I kissed her for the first time, and her voice was as ragged as her sweater—which is to say, not at all—and I didn’t answer, and I couldn’t answer, and if I had waited for us to be okay I could have been waiting for a hundred lifetimes.

> so, that's it. i would appreciate some feedback. i'm arranging a portfolio for applying to colleges and i'm not ashamed to admit i'm pretty proud of this piece, but it definitely needs critiquing. my concerns pretty much reside in the second-to-last paragraph, which was added after everything else was written because i thought of the line "I wondered if she remembered that time we danced to Björk in our underwear" and wanted to be able to work it into the piece.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Summarize how the narrator almost died and was saved.

answer: The narrator and the character she refers to (her friend who had died) went to the beach on the last day she lived there. They swam far out, and the character almost died due to the strong riptide. Her friend rescued her, but her friend later died as well. The narrator wishes she had talked to her friend more often, but ultimately felt that she could neither ask the questions she wanted nor even find her friend. Despite all this, the character did see the character at the train station years later, but the conversation was awkward and heavy with unspoken words.

text:
"the character she refers to (her friend who had died)" - this part is confusing. It should refer to the narrator's friend directly (as "friend"), not call her a "character". The reference to the friend's death should also be edited because it reads as if she's dead.
"the last day she lived there." - sounds like her friend lives on the beach.

refinement: The narrator and her friend went to the beach on the day the latter was moving away to live elsewhere. They swam far out, and the character almost died due to the strong riptide. Her friend rescued her, but her friend later died as well. The narrator wishes she had talked to her friend more often, but ultimately felt that she could neither ask the questions she wanted nor even find her friend. Despite all this, the character did see the character at the train station years later, but the conversation was awkward and heavy with unspoken words.

text: "but her friend later died as well." - this is incorrect. The narrator's friend did not die. She just left for good after saving the narrator.

refinement: The narrator and her friend went to the beach on the day the latter was moving away to live elsewhere. They swam far out, and the character almost died due to the strong riptide. The narrator's friend rescued her by grabbing a fistful of hair and hauling her out of the ocean and onto the shore, where she lay unconscious. The narrator wishes she had talked to her friend more often, but ultimately felt that she could neither ask the questions she wanted nor even find her friend. Despite all this, the character did see the character at the train station years later, but the conversation was awkward and heavy with unspoken words.

text: Add that when the narrator woke up, her friend was gone and she'd left her alone on the beach.

When the narrator woke up, her friend was gone and she was alone on the beach.

answer: Traveling out past the rocks, the narrator ends up swimming further than he's ever gone before, creating concern in the narrator's mind. The ocean is dark, cold, and dangerous. Among the snakes, the narrator takes in water and the under currents drag him under, almost to his death. He sees the stars in the sky and thinks he's going to stay down. He kicks to get back up, losing touch of his partner. She finds him, and drags him out of the water on the shore, where he washes off to find her gone. As he retraces his steps, he can't find her home anymore. The next day, after searching for her door-to-door, he finds her at the train station's platform. She asks him if he remembers the first time they kissed, and he remembers nothing because he's been looking for her.

refinement: Traveling out past the rocks, the narrator ends up swimming further than she's ever gone before. The narrator takes in water as the undertow drags her under. With slimy sea snakes coiling up her ankles, she kicks to get back up but is dragged even deeper. She finds her, and drags her out of the water on the shore, where she washes off to find her gone.

text: "She finds her, and drags her out of the water on the shore, where she washes off to find her gone." - this sentence is unclear who rescued who and must mention the narrator's friend saved her before leaving.

The narrator's friend grabbed a fistful of her hair and hauled her onto the shore, where she lay unconscious. When the narrator woke up, her friend was gone.

answer: First, the narrator almost drowned and saw the sea snakes. His friend rescued him and although he was a little worn out he ran to get to the tallest rocks that divided the beach and look to a sea. He could wait to have water rushing over his face. He saw a lot of cars on the highway and wondered where they were going and overall they waited on a few minutes to get a taxi there.

The narrator is female, not male. The part about waiting for water to rush over her face. where they were going, or the taxi never happened.

refinement: First, the narrator almost drowned and saw the sea snakes.

text: "First, the narrator almost drowned and saw the sea snakes" - the response is missing most of the critical details and needs a full rewrite.

refinement: The narrator and her friend, who was going away for good that day, went to the beach together for the last time. They swam far out past the rocks, farther than the narrator as ever gone. When her friend swam back, the narrator got caught in an undertow and was dragged deep underwater, where the sea snakes dwelled. The narrator kicks, hoping to free her ankles of snakes and to propel herself up, but the current is too strong and she thinks she's going to die. Her friend swims back to save her, grabbing a fistful of hair and hauling the narrator's unconscious body onto shore. When the narrator wakes up, her friend is gone.

answer: She was hanging out with a friend late at night in the water and it seems like she got picked up by a rip tide. Suddenly she was submerged-something it seems she did not fight. Snakes were even at her ankles when her friend gripped her hair and dragged her out of the water and onto the beach.

text: "She was hanging out with a friend late at night in the water" - it wasn't late at night. It was a beautiful, dark grey summer morning. Unclear who "she" is.

answer: The narrator recalls having seen her friend once after their day at the beach, where she almost drowned. They chatted, and the narrator asked if her friend remembered the day by the seashore. However, their conversation was haunted with an uncomfortable silence, which made it difficult to answer any of the questions the narrator had.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Summarize what happened when the narrator came to.

answer: The narrator met her best friend one last time at a train station. They reminisced about one day at the beach where the friend almost drowned and then disappeared for good. The narrator wonders if her friend remembers any of the moments they shared.

text: The response failed to answer the question.

refinement: When the narrator wakes up, her friend was gone. She ran to the tallest rocks on the beach to look out across the parking lots, fields, and train tracks in search of her friend, but she was gone. Realizing she was all alone on the beach and she might have seen and talked to her friend for the last time, the narrator cried. She walked home, passing her friend's house only to find the floral wallpaper ripped out, all the moving vans gone, and the door locked.

answer: It is possible that the narrator comes to after having a medical condition.

text: The critique failed to answer the question.

refinement: The narrator wakes up to find her friend gone. She climbs up the tallest rocks on the beach to search for her, but to no avail. The narrator cries after realizing she's all alone. She walks home and sees that her friend's house is locked and empty.

answer: The narrator and her best friend went to the beach on the last day she lived near the narrator. While at the beach, the friend swam too far beyond the rocks and the narrator sank down in the sea. The friend later rescued the narrator from drowning and they returned to shore. Years later, the narrator saw her best friend at the train station, but they were unable to sustain a conversation. The friend didn't remember what happened at the beach. The implication is that the absence of those memories left both people feeling incomplete.

text: The response failed to answer the question.

refinement: The narrator woke up to find her friend gone, so she ran to the tallest rock to look around, but found no one. Realizing she was alone and probably saw her friend for the last time, she cried. The narrator walked back home. Passing by her friend's house, she saw that the movers were gone and the door was locked.

answer: The narrator came to when she was awake in a hospital bed with her family by her side.

text: "The narrator came to when she was awake in a hospital bed with her family by her side." -  this is incorrect. The hospital scene belongs to the narrator's friend after she got into a car accident.

refinement: The narrator came to and found her friend gone. She claimed up the tallest rocks on the beach to search for her friend, but she was all alone, so she cried. Walking back home. she passes her friend's house and finds out that the movers have already gone and the door was locked.

answer: The narrator found herself on a beach, on the seashore, cold and muddy. Their friend was gone, and would remain gone for many years to come. The narrator walked three hours and passed their friend's house, but no one occupied it, and their belongings were askew on the sidewalk.

text: "their" - the narrator and her friend are female.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Describe the relationship between the narrator and their friend.

answer: The relationship between the narrator and their friend is a close relationship that had been forged and strengthened through shared experiences. Despite the death of their friend, the narrator still loves and misses her deeply. Despite their own sadness, they still try to find their friend and connect with her, but always lose their connection in the differing realities of their lives. The relationship is between two people who have been through a lot but care deeply for one another.

The relationship is between two people who have been through a lot but care deeply for one another.

text: Must mention that they were friends since childhood.

refinement: The relationship between the narrator and her friend is a close relationship that had been forged and strengthened through shared experiences ever since they were young girls. Despite her own sadness, she still tries to find her friend and connect with her, but always loses the connection in the differing realities of their lives. The relationship is between two people who have been through a lot but care deeply for one another.

text: This part of the response is irrelevant and doesn't describe the relationship between the narrator and her friend.

refinement: The relationship between the narrator and her friend is a close relationship that had been forged and strengthened through shared experiences ever since they were young girls. They seem OK when they were at the beach, but they were really far from it. Presumably, a wedge was driven between them when the narrator first kissed her friend, who was probably shocked and disappointed at what happened. The narrator's friend was so affected by the kiss that she moved away without giving the narrator her phone number or new address. Her friend even left her unconscious on the beach after saving her life. It seems the narrator loves her friend deeply and wants more than friendship, but her friend doesn't.

answer: It seems they were very close, and perhaps shared romantic feelings- or the narrator's own romantic inclinations were strong but unrequited. Maybe the friend fought off her own feelings and pretended not to share in them. The two of them clearly spent many hours together just enjoying one another's company.

text: Must include the fact that despite their close relationship, the narrator's friend chose to forget about her when she moved away.

Maybe the friend fought off her own feelings and pretended not to share in them. The two of them clearly spent many hours together just enjoying one another's company. However, despite all this, the narrator's friend chose to forget about her after moving away, as evidenced by not giving the narrator her new address or phone number. Their relationship probably soured after the narrator kissed her friend.

answer: The narrator and their friend had a very close relationship, anchored by shared experiences of hardship. The narrator cares deeply for their friend and misses her greatly even after her death. This bond makes their loss even more difficult to bear. Their relationship was marked by many adventures and shared experiences, and had a very strong emotional component.

text: "The narrator and her friend had a very close relationship. Their relationship was marked by many adventures and shared experiences, and had a very strong emotional component." - as a whole, the response sounds redundant and can be streamlined into something better.

refinement: The narrator and her friend had a very close relationship marked by many adventures and shared experiences.

text: The response is missing the angle where the narrator's best friend chose to forget about her.

refinement: The narrator and her friend had a very close relationship marked by many adventures and shared experiences. However, the narrator's friend chose to forget about her and their relationship after moving to another city. She didn't even give the narrator her address or telephone number. Their falling out was probably when the narrator kissed her friend and wanted more out of their relationship. Her friend presumably didn't share the same feelings.

answer: The narrator and their friend used to spend a lot of time together when they were younger and seemed to get along very well, even sharing a romantic moment where they kissed each other. Unfortunately, they went to different colleges and lost contact. Presumably they still harbor feelings for each other as they were formed so early in life.

text: "Unfortunately, they went to different colleges and lost contact." - it's not as cut and dry as they lost contact when they went to different colleges. The narrator's friend chose not to stay friends because she moved away without giving the narrator her contact information. There wasn't also a proper send-off, because the narrator's friend left her unconscious on the beach and just left town with the moving vans.

refinement: The narrator and her friend used to spend a lot of time together when they were younger and seemed to get along very well. However, the narrator's friend decided to throw their friendship away because she left the narrator unconscious on the beach and left town without saying goodbye. The narrator's friend didn't even leave her address and telephone number, so it's clear she didn't want to be bothered with their past. One of the reasons for this change of heart is probably because the narrator kissed her friend and presumably wanted more out of their relationship, a sentiment her friend didn't share. Or, her friend wants the same thing as the narrator but knows it would never work out between them. Presumably they still harbor feelings for each other as they were formed so early in life.

text: "Presumably they still harbor feelings for each other as they were formed so early in life." - it's not proven if the narrator's friend shares the same feelings as the narrator. This can be deleted.

However, the narrator's friend decided to throw their friendship away because she left the narrator unconscious on the beach and left town without saying goodbye. The narrator's friend didn't even leave her address and telephone number, so it's clear she didn't want to be bothered with their past. One of the reasons for this change of heart is probably because the narrator kissed her friend and presumably wanted more out of their relationship, a sentiment her friend didn't share. Or, her friend wants the same thing as the narrator but knows it would never work out between them.

answer: The two girls have a tight and longstanding friendship.
