Friendship Analysis
The question asks which two people are talking about their personal friendship with Tom, rather than just describing his personality traits.
Identify who describes a relationship, not just personality traits.
Let's look at Melissa first. She says he is a self-disciplined and hardworking student. This is a description of Tom's character, not their personal bond.
Next is Nick. He says: We show mutual respect to each other and have a strong bond for years. This clearly describes the interaction and relationship between Nick and Tom.
