Summary
Homework
Your younger brother says:
“I have 500 friends online, so I don't really need to meet people face to face.”
What would you tell him?
Dear brother,
I know you have many online friends, but I want to tell you something.
First, __________________________________. Second, ___________________________________. Third, _____________________________________.
A click can start a connection, but friendship needs to be built.
Your brother/sister
Example 示例
Although online friends can be fun, they may not be there when you need help.
But remember, a real friend will stay with you in hard times.
It depends on whether people are honest online.
If you only talk online, you may not really know the person.
Technology changes the way friendship begins, but people still decide what friendship becomes.
Thanks
