Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
I was a freshman in college when I met the Whites.They were completely different from my own family.Jane White and I became friends at school,and her family welcomed me like a long-lost cousin.
In my family,it was always important to place blame (责备、责怪) when anything had happened.From the time we were little,my sister,brothers and I told on ( 告 发 ) each ojye.air.The Whites,however,didn't worry about who had done what.The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died.
In July,the White sisters and I decided to take a car trip from their home in Florida to New York.The two older sisters,Sarah and Jane were college students,and the youngest,Amy,had recently turned 16.Proud of having a new driver's license,Amy was excited about practicing her driving on the trip.
The big sisters shared the driving of Sarah's new car during the first part of the trip,but when they reached less crowded areas,they let Amy take over.Amy got behind the wheel.She came to a crossroads with a stop sign.No one would ever know whether she was nervous or just didn't see the sign,but Amy didn't stop at the crossroads and a large truck ran into our car.
Jane was killed at once.I was slightly injured.The most difficult thing that I had ever done was to call the Whites to tell them what happened.Painful as it was for me to lose a good friend,I knew that it was far worse for them to lose a child.
When Mr.jye.ai Mrs.White arrived at the hospital,they found their two daughters sharing a room.Sarah had a few cuts on her head;Amy's leg was broken.They hugged all and cried tears of sadness and of joy at seeing their daughters.They wiped away the girls' tears and made a few jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches (拐杖).
To both of their daughters,and especially to Amy,over and over they simply said,"(5)."
I was astonished.No blame.No accusations (控诉,指责).
Later,I asked the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driving and had run a stop sign.Mr.White said, "Jane is gone and we miss her terribly.Nothing we say or do will bring her back.But Amy has her whole life ahead of her.How can she lead a happy life if she feels we blame her for her sister's death?"
They were right.Amy graduated from the University and got married several years ago.
She is now a mother of two little girls of her own,the older named Jane.
