Explanation:

First Question (How does Lila change...):

To answer, analyze Lila's traits at start (e.g., unsure of Meli, distant) and end (closer, friendly) from the summary. Changes happen due to interactions: Meli calls Lila, Lila likes Meli’s singing, they talk about music, forgetting initial awkwardness.

From the summary, initially Lila is “unsure of” Meli (worries Meli might talk too much) and not eager to be close. The blank likely fits a term like “unsure of” or “wary of”, but the given option in the dropdown (visible as “unsure of” in the image) matches. So the correct fill is “unsure of”.

From the summary, at the end, Lila and Meli bond over music, forget awkwardness, so Lila is “interested in” being friends (or the dropdown option “interested in” fits, as they connect). The dropdown has “interested in” and “worried about”; since they become friendly, “interested in” is correct.

Answer:

At the beginning, Lila is unsure of Meli and reluctant to be close (after Meli gets her name, Lila worries Meli might talk too much). By the end, she becomes more open and friendly. The cause is their interactions: Meli reaches out by calling, Lila appreciates Meli’s singing, and they bond over music, which makes Lila forget her initial hesitations.

Second Question (At the start... Lila is [ ] other and Meli...):
