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    36    person.

When I first knew Bill , back in   37  , he was one of the most carefree(无忧无虑)people I had ever    38   . He was always ready to have a party. He thought    39   of going out for beer at three o’clock in the morning or driving 15 miles to see an old   40    he really liked. Bill and I were in the same class in college, and    41    was never dull when he was    42   . With him there was one wild    43    after another. Sometimes I wonder how we    44    to study for our exams.

Last week I was in Houston on business and I ran into Bill in the bar at the hotel.   45   , I wasn’t even sure it was    46   . 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 he works for a bank. He   47     most of the evening about his job, his new car and his house. How he had changed! Back when we were in college, the    48    thing Bill cared about were possessions(财富). Now they seemed to be his main    49   . Although I have changed quite a bit myself, somehow I never    50    Bill changing so much. My image of him   51     the one I had formed     52   the time when we were college students together.

I suppose it’s   53     to expect people to remain the same, especially    54    I have changed so much myself. But I must say that I enjoyed the old Bill much more than the new Bill. Maybe he    55    the same way about me.

    The farmer gave me an amused, distrustful 48 . But Buck’s face didn’t change.   “Sure,” he said 49 . “Your daddy is 50 good for it.” He  51 to the other man. “This here is one of James Williams’s sons.”

    The farmer nodded in a neighborly 52 . I was filled with pride. James William’s son.  Those three words had opened a door to an adult’s respect and trust.

    That day I discovered that the good name my parents had  53  brought our whole family the respect of our neighbors. Everyone knew what to 54 from a Williams: a decent person who kept his word and respected himself 55 much to do wrong.
