(B)
Getting in touch with friends is difficult after people change schools or move house. They don’t know how to start the conversation again if they don’t talk with their friends for a long time. Many people want to get in touch (联络) with old friends, but they are afraid to do so.
Psychologists (心理学家) from colleges did a study about how people feel about getting in touch with old friends.
The study shows over 90% of the people don’t call their old friends. 70% of them don’t want to call their friends first, because they worry that their old friends won’t want to hear from them or are too busy to talk with them. Some people even think getting in touch with their old friends is as hard as talking to strange people.
Lara Aknin, one of the psychologists, said, “Most people are worried that they have different lifestyles and interests now. But these differences can be helpful for people to get close to each other. After sharing something new and interesting, they won’t feel embarrassed (尴尬的) at all. Instead, they know each other better.”
In fact, if you get in touch with an old friend, you will be surprised to find that he or she is also looking forward to hearing from you. So, why not give your old friend a call?

A. By telling a story.
B. By giving a fact.
C. By asking a question.
D. By listing numbers.
