【解析】

文章主要闡述應該如何用正確淡定的態(tài)度面對友誼的改變。要面對事實，生活影響了友誼。只要我們活著，周圍的事情就會有改變，只要事情有改變，友誼就會受到影響。

【1】句意：只要我們活著，周圍的事物就會改變，只要事物改變，友誼就會受到影響。

這里是說在我們周圍的事物。around在……周圍。根據句意，故填around。

【2】句意：然而，我們過著自己的生活，做著生活要求我們做的事情，隨著年齡的增長，記憶逐漸淡忘，面容模糊，甚至連童年時的朋友名字都被遺忘了。

這里是被遺忘，用一般現在時態(tài)的被動語態(tài)，其結構是be done的形式。forget的過去分詞是forgotten。根據句意，故填forgotten。

【3】句意：你想知道怎樣對待一個不再友好的朋友嗎？

wonder表示想知道。根據句意，故填wonder。

【4】句意：你所能做的就是好好對待他們，當你和他們在一起的時候為他們做最好的事情。

短語be with sb.表示和某人在一起。根據句意，故填with。

【5】句意：你可以和老前輩交談，他們會告訴你，生活充滿了難以置信的快樂和悲傷，今天困擾你的事情總有一天會成為回憶，痛苦也會消失。

根據下文and the sting will be gone.可知上文是說變成記憶。memory名詞，意思是“記憶”，根據句意，故填memory。
