Question

The other day, I happened to meet someone I hadn’t seen for many years. I couldn’t believe the change in him. In fact, he didn’t even seem like the same person.

When I first knew Bill, back in _______ he was one of the most carefree people I had ever met. He was always ready to have a party．He thought nothing of (把…当作平常事) going out for beer at three o’clock in the morning or driving 50 miles to see an old movie he really liked. Bill and I were in the same class in college, and _______ was never dull when he was around. With him there was one wild adventure after another. Sometimes I wondered how we _______ to study for our exams.

Last week I was in Houston on business and I ran into Bill in the bar at the hotel. _______, I wasn’t even sure it was him．Was this short-haired businessman really the same person? I wasn’t really sure until I came near him but it indeed was Bill．Now be works for a bank. He talked most of the evening about his job, his new car and his house. How he had changed! Back when we were in college, the last thing Bill cared about was possessions （财富）．Now they seemed to be his main _______. Although I have changed quite a bit myself, somehow, I never imagined Bill changing so much. My image of him remained the one I had formed at the time when we were college students together.

I suppose it’s foolish to expect people to remain the same, especially when I have changed so much myself. But I must say that I enjoyed the old Bill much more than the new Bill. Maybe he felt the same way about me.
