Question

When I was little, my family used to move very often. Before I could even get to know my schoolmates well, my family was on the move again. I became very ______ because of this.

But a girl with dark skin and long shiny hair changed me. She is very outgoing and happy.

She is always smiling, like a beautiful sunflower following the sun. Without ______, I enjoyed being with her and soon we became good friends. As time went by, I gradually became a __ girl. But this joyful period didn’t last long. We _____ different colleges. I felt like I had gone back to my always-on-the-move childhood. I felt ______ and helpless and I was afraid that I would __ her as my best friend. She stayed calm and said to me: “Rain, you can achieve more than I do, so ______ to your dreams and make a big effort! Real friendship doesn’t fade and we will be best friends forever.” Maybe she didn’t realize what a great ______ she was to me at that time.

However, it turned out that my worries were well-founded. I felt that the ______ between us was getting bigger and bigger. One day, she sent me a text message happily telling me that she had fallen in love with a handsome boy in her class. I felt happy for her, but ______ I was secretly worried about our friendship. I ______ her several times to tell her to think carefully about her relationship with the boy, but I got no more messages from her. I felt sad that perhaps our friendship would die. I had almost given up hope ______ she visited me at my campus(校園) a week later. She looked weak ______ was wearing the most beautiful smile. She gave me a big hug and said:“I’m sorry. I want to be myself and your friend forever!” We cried together, ______ seeing the people walking past. She told me about her sad story, and we knew we had gone back to ______ it was before.

Now I strongly believe that distance and time can’t separate you from a friend. If you care enough about each other, friendship never fades.
