　 Jerry never seemed to mind giving me so much of time, and though he had many other friends, he always made me feel that 　41　 　was his best one. He taught me all I still didn’t know about birds and flowers, he came over to read to me every day when I broke my leg and had to 　42　 　the house for weeks. His ideas about people and moving pictures and even food and clothes were my ideas. I came to feel that Jerry 　　43　 　more to me than either my father or my mother did. During that whole first year he never said or did an unkind thing to me, and I began to look up to (敬佩)him as I would have to a god.

　 But as months went by, a 　　44　 　came in between us. Jerry almost stopped coming to the house, and when I went to his house or telephoned him, I got his 　　45　 　such as “I’m studying now” or “I’ve got some work to do for Monday”. When he 　　46　 　me in the street, he’d still give me a warm smile and friendly wave with a “Hi, Tom”, but he wouldn’t stop to talk. Finally I knew that he was interested in some other things 　　47　 　me. He often went out in his new clothes in his family’s car on a Friday or Saturday night. I couldn’t understand what was so great about girls, parties and dances.

　 But I could only understand that I was 　　48　 　when he finally made me know that our closeness as friends finished. Of course, he didn’t really want to hurt me, but when I know that an age 　　49　 　brought us the break, a long time had passed. There are different 　　50　 　for a boy of 19 years and a boy of 12 years.
