In the past, it could be difficult to keep up a relationship with someone from the next town, not to mention someone from a different state or country. These days the Internet has made it easier than ever to meet friends online, whether those friends live right down the street or halfway around the world. In fact，this ability to bring together different people from different walks of life is one of the great advantages of the Internet. If you have always wanted to meet friends online from around the world, all you need to do is log on and search. The process of meeting new friends online can be a fun new adventure, and many people have found a great number of friends from all over the world using the power of the Internet. In many ways the ability to meet friends online is an extension (延伸) of the pen pals we used to have as kids. Back then we would wait patiently by the mailbox for those pen pal letters to arrive. And on the other side of the world, our special friends would anticipate the same kind of thing to happen. The Internet age has taken that pen pal age to a wholly new level, making it easier than ever to meet friends. With just a click of a mouse you can meet friends online from faraway lands, sharing stories and experiences or just spending some time chatting together. A number of websites have made it even easier to meet friends, and those with an interest in this can definitely check those websites out. These specialized websites allow people from around the world to quickly and easily meet friends online with just a click of a mouse. 4．According to the passage, with the help of the Internet, people now ________.
