In the small town of Elmwood, two very good friends, Jamie and Chris, shared everything from secrets to hobbies. 56However, when they reached the seventh grade, things started to change.
Chris became 57interested in soccer and joined the school team while Jamie discovered a passion(激情) for drawing. Their different interests meant that they couldn’t spend so much time together, and their friendship started to fade(消退). They sat at different lunch tables and 58hardly talked. Both missed the close time they had before, but they didn’t know how they could bridge the growing gap(差距).
Then came the Elmwood Friendship Day—a traditional day when students were encouraged to show kindness. Remembering their happy old days, Jamie stayed up late 59creating a drawing of Chris playing soccer. The next day, Jamie handed Chris the drawing 60bravely. Chris’s eyes lit up with excitement, and his 61cheerful smile made Jamie realize their bond was still strong. “You remembered!” Chris said. That drawing started a long conversation between the two. During their talk, they shared honest 62thoughts about missing their friendship and fearing it had ended. They realized that even though their interests differed, their friendship didn’t have to.
From that day on, Jamie attended Chris’s soccer 63matches, cheering loudly for him, and Chris made time to visit the art show of Jamie’s latest pictures, asking about every detail. They found ways to get along 64well with each other by embracing their unique hobbies. They learned that true friends celebrate 65differences and find new ways to stay connected(有联系的), no matter how life changes.
