The question requires that we fill up the blank spaces with the correct words. Find the completed passage below:

British people have a reputation for being rather quiet and reserved. However, a new study has (1) revealed that Britons are actually quite sociable and the (2) average person claims to have 14 close friends. Although a minority of those questioned (3) admitted that they had no best friend, a quarter said that they had more than 18 close friends. Experts said that this is (4) due to changes in the way people (5) spend their free time. They are now more (6) likely to invite friends to their homes or go out socializing than previous generations. The increasing use of mobile phones and emails has also made it easier to (7) keep up with a greater number of friendships. Men's relationships are not (8) deep though they tend to have more friends. Women, (9) on the other hand prefer to have a small number of friends they can trust (10) totally, and with whom they can feel completely at (11) ease. The idea that people in the north of England are more neighborly than those in the south seems to be backed (12) up by the survey. However, despite having friends, it seems that family still (13) plays an important part in most people's lives. When asked who they would (14) turn to for help if they were ill or had a problem, the majority said that they would (15) call upon a relative first rather than a friend.
