Why was it hard for the four girls to say goodbye at the end of the freshman year?It seemed that the three months of summer vacation would be far too long to endure apart from one another.2. How strong are your college friendships likely to remain in your adult life? Are they stronger than your childhood friendships or your relationships with future colleagues?You may have different answers to this question. (Note: The more your life changes, the more your friendships will change.)3. Which kinds of friendships do you usually keep the longest?Step 2 Related Information1.Roommates and Majors in American Colleges.Freshman roommates are usually assigned randomly, with no attention to their majors, they may take none of the same classes, and do not have to choose their majors the first year. In future years it’s very easy to change roommates, and in the junior or senior year it’s quite common for students to move to off-campus apartments. So there’s much less likelihood that freshman roommates will become lifelong friends.2.American and Chinese FriendshipsAmericans are very adept at making new friends, while Chinese people are very skillful at keeping their old friends. The main reason for this is that Americans experience more changes in their personal circumstances, such as changing jobs, moving to another town, or getting divorced.At any given time an American may have only a few close friends but many casual acquaintances. Over the course of a lifetime an American will probably have more friends than a Chinese person has, but a Chinese person may have more lifelong friends.3.Class ReunionsIn many Western countries it is customary for the people who graduated from a college or school in the same year to gather periodically at the campus or in their hometown for a class reunion.It often includes parties, dinners, dancing, golfing, bowling, and other special events such as visits with former teachers. Reunions usually occur every five years, beginning five years after graduation. Certain reunions such as the 10th, 25th, and 50th are often considered special, and are more elaborate than the others.Step 3 Notes to the Text1. … joined hands with my three most intimate fri ends: (para. 1)…held hands with my closest friends.…与三个最亲密的朋友手拉手。
