Question

閱讀理解

The number of people attending high school and college reunions(重聚)has reduced. There are a lot of people who say Facebook is good enough and that they don't want to get together. Mindy Crouchley is one of them. "I can keep in touch with anyone I'm interested in through this medium(媒介).There's nothing more a reunion could give me."

I am a huge fan of Facebook. But having just at?tended my 40th high school reunion, I can say to Mindy and others that Facebook can't substitute the experi?ences you get at a reunion face to face and across a crowded room. They include the sound of a once-famil?iar voice calling out to you and the pleasure that comes with recognizing an old teammate after only a moment's hesitation.

Facebook is to a reunion what Mindy's yearbook is to a novel ： the level of detail you get on Facebook can't be equal to what you find face to face. For example, a classmate told me about a trip he had taken to see his dying teacher; it taught him the importance of telling people what they mean to you when they are still alive.

Of course nearly half of the 70 students in our class didn't make it. At the closing dinner, a classmate said, "Please raise your glass to the three members of the class of 1971 who have died. " Of course, five and ten years from now, at our next reunions, the list of those to whom we raise a glass will be longer. We may hear about their death through Facebook. But face to face, in a community of classmates, something deeper happens ： you are forced to admit life is short, which makes you feel grateful for your blessings and make the most of what remains.
