修改原因
修改前Tom and Jake both hate mornings, so they became friends at once. A fisherman sees a fisherman from afar.
修改后Tom and Jake both hate mornings, so they became friends at once. Birds of a feather flock together.
A fisherman sees a fisherman from afar 是把另一种语言的谚语逐字译成英语，英语读者容易按字面理解为渔夫之间的事。英语用同类羽毛的鸟聚在一起这一比喻表达相近意思。修改时只替换了谚语。
相反的说法是 opposites attract：She's quiet and he's loud, but opposites attract。鸟群这个谚语用于不良同伴时，有时带有不赞同的语气。作文中也可以直说 people tend to choose friends who are like them。
