Question

Stephen Butler was one of my best friends when we were 14. We did everything together. We read comic books, watched movies, played video games. But when we got older, we grew apart(分离) and finally lost touch.

I didn’t hear from him for 10 years. From time to time I would think about Stephen. I would wonder what he was doing. I hoped he was OK. But I didn’t have his phone number, so I couldn’t call him.

But then one day the Internet changed our relationship.

Stephen found me on MySpace. Com. It is a social website that connects people around the world. He sent me a message. Then we e-mailed each other back and forth and got in touch with each other. It was great. I learned where Stephen lives. He has become a doctor. He was surprised that I lived in China. The years between us did not matter. When we e-mailed each other it was like we were 14 again and nothing had changed. MySpace had allowed us to be friends again!
