答案解析：
70. 根据上文 “Hey, Emily, how's it going?”(嘿，艾米丽，最近怎么样?)以及下文 “I've made some progress in English, and I got an ‘A’ in the last exam.”(我在英语方面取得了一些进步，并且在上次考试中得了“A”。)可知，艾米丽的情况不错。所以此处应回答 “Pretty good!”(相当不错!)。
71. 根据上文 “Your efforts finally paid off.”(你的努力终于有了回报。)以及下文 “Well, I just listened to the teacher carefully in class. Besides, reading English newspapers and novels helped me a lot.”(嗯，我只是在课堂上认真听老师讲课。此外，阅读英语报纸和小说对我帮助很大。)可知，此处A是在询问B取得进步的方法。所以应问 “How did you make such great progress?”(你是如何取得如此大的进步的?)，此句用一般过去时，符合语境中对过去取得进步方式的询问。
72. 根据上下文可知，此处B是在询问A昨晚九点在做什么，所以应问 “What were you doing at that time?”(你当时在做什么?)，用过去进行时，强调在过去某个具体时间正在进行的动作。
73. 根据下文 “Yes, I have. Amazing China really shows us how amazing China is!”(是的，我看过。《厉害了，我的国》真的向我们展示了中国有多厉害!)可知，此处A是在询问B是否看过这部电影。所以应问 “Have you watched it?”(你看过它吗?)，此句是现在完成时的一般疑问句，符合语境中对是否看过电影的询问。
74. 根据上文 “Good luck, my friend.”(祝你好运，我的朋友。)可知，此处A应该对B的祝福表示感谢。所以应回答 “Thank you.”(谢谢你。)，这是日常交际中对于祝福的常见回应方式。
