A twist of fate

When Tamara Rabi met Adriana Scott at a local McDonald’s restaurant, their lives changed forever. “I didn’t know what to say 【小题1】 ‘hi’. I was just so shocked -- it was like seeing myself,” says Adriana. They were both students at neighbouring universities in Long Island, New York, and they had grown up only 30 kilometres apart. They shared a birthday, they were exactly the same height and both loved hip hop. But the most important thing 【小题2】 was shared between them was the same Mexican mother. Both girls grew up knowing that their mother 【小题3】 (give) them up for adoption when they were born, but they had no idea 【小题4】 they had a twin sister. Then, Justin Lattore, a friend of Adriana’s, went to Tamara’s twentieth birthday party. When he walked in and saw Tamara, hardly 【小题5】 he believe his eyes. “I was just shocked -- she looked so much like Adriana,” says Justin. Then it got clear -- they had to be sisters. In fact, Tamara had already noticed that strangers on her university campus often smiled and said hello, clearly 【小题6】 (mistake) her for someone else.

Following the birthday, Justin put the two girls in touch and they arranged the McDonald’s meeting by email. “【小题7】 she came towards me, she was walking like me, talking like me,” says Tamara. “We have the same mannerisms, the same interests and got the same grades at school,” adds Adriana. The girl even discovered that as children they had often had the same nightmare of a really loud noise 【小题8】 (follow) by a very quiet one. They had another sad factor a common. 【小题9】 of their adoptive fathers had died a few years before they met.

Now the twins are finishing their studies, and they meet often. “I feel she’s my sister, but our relationship right now is more like friends,” says Tamara. She’s optimistic and excited that their futures will be together. “We will always have each other. We don’t have any other brothers and sisters -- we are sure 【小题10】 (grow) old together!”
