Years ago, if a
teenager had some problems in his life, he might go home and write in his
diary; now, a teenager with 21 problems might go
onto the Internet and write about them in a blog(博客). In many ways, a diary and a blog are very
22 . But what makes bolgging different from writing in a(n) 23
diary?
The biggest difference is that
a blog is much more 24 than a diary. Usually, a teenager
treats his diary like a book full of 25 that he does
not want to 26 with others.
It’s interesting that someone
who writes in a blog 27 a diary will probably write nearly
the same information.
I have a little sister, and
sometimes I go online to read her 28 . She writes about
things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for
her chemistry test. 29 I was her age, I wrote about
the same things, but 30 in my dairy. Then, after I had
finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was
31 that my sister might read it.
The biggest 32 with
blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend
during high school and wrote something 33 about him in
my diary, he would never know. 34 , if my sister ever wrote
something bad about a friend, that friend might 35 her
blog and get angry.
There are also
36 to blogging, of course. If I was feeling sad one day and
wrote in my diary, “ Nobody cares about me”, because no one would
37 about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in
her blog, her best friends would quickly 38 and tell
her how much they 39 her. Blogs help people
40 in contact with their friends and know what the people around them
are doing.
