Scientist Dr. Russell is interested in finding out about friendship in the 21st century. He started by 9 to answer the question: Can online friends be as good as real-life friends?
To his 10, he found that the answer is a big YES. A true friend can always give you 11 advice and support, and, of course, an online friend can do that. Online friends can also be close friends. Sometimes online friends can send you a 12 when you are unhappy. When you feel stressed(焦虑不安) in the middle of the night, they may offer comfort. You can find friends who have the same interests as you more 13 online.
Dr. Russell says, "When you are in trouble, your friends may 14 you a hand. Our body makes a special chemical(化学物质) 15 we help others. The chemical makes us 16 glad and warm. Chatting(聊天) with your best friends face to face, you copy(复制) 17 words and gestures(手势). When they smile, you smile too!"
So, both real-life friends and online friends are great—they just help us in different 18. Friends are important and our friendship is priceless.
