Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in her life, she might go home and write in her diary. Now, a teenager with  36  problems might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog. In many ways, a diary and a blog are very  37  . So, what makes blogging different from writing in  38  diary?

The biggest difference is that blogging is much more  39  than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats her diary like a book full of  40  that she does not want to  41  .

It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog  42  a diary will probably write nearly the same information.

I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her  43  . She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test.   44 

I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but  45  in my diary. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was  46  that my sister might read it!

The biggest  47  with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something  48  about her in my diary, she would never know.   49    , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend  50  read her blog and get a “cry”.

There are also  51  of blogging, of course. If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary, “Nobody cares about me,”   52  would know about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would  53  respond（回应）and tell her how much they  54  her. Blogs help people  55  in contact with their friends and to hear what the people around them are doing.
