Question

Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in her life, she might go home and write in her diary. Now, a teenager with   36   problems might go onto the Internet and write about his problems in a blog. In many ways a diary and a blog are very   37   . So, what makes blogging different from writing in   38   diary?

The biggest difference is that blogging is much more   39   than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats his diary like a book full of   40   that she does not want to   41  .

It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog   42  a diary will probably write nearly the same information.

I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her   43   . She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test.   44   I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but   45   in my diary. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was   46  that my sister might read it!

The biggest   47   with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something   48  about her in my diary, she would never know!   49  , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend   50   read her blog and get a “cry”.

There are also   51   to blogging, of course. If I felt sad one day and wrote in my diary:  “Nobody cares about me.”   52   would know about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would   53   respond and tell her how much they   54  her. Blogs help people   55   in touch with their friends and know what the people around them are doing.
