【推荐1】When you choose a friend， you should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck， but when you are down， they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character， especially understanding， honesty and reliability（可靠）.
Above all else， I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead， he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place， and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.
At the same time， however， a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults（过错）in others. He notices their good points. In short， good friends will be honest to each other and accept each other.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time， I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor， he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble， he will not run away from me.
There is fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives， and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor， too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable， honest， and understanding， I know I’ve found a friend!
1. Which of the following qualities does the writer think is the most important in choosing a friend?| A．Honesty. | B．Understanding. |
| C．Reliability. | D．A sense of humor. |

| C．always point out each other’s mistakes | D．have money or luck |
| A．The importance of having a friend. | B．Where to choose friends. |
| C．How to get along with friends. | D．The qualities of a good friend. |
【推荐2】We all know friendship is a good thing. But do you know that friends have a huge influence on your happiness and quality of life? Good friends add special meaning to life. They help you share the good times and get over the difficult ones. Among other things, good friends can:
Improve your mood. Happiness can be infectious(传染的). Spending time with happy and positive friends can raise your emotion as well as your attitude toward life.
Help you reach your goals. Whether you are trying to get fit, give up smoking, or otherwise improve your life, encouragement from a friend can really increase your chances of success.
Reduce your stress and depression. Having an active social life can improve your immune system(免疫系统) and help reduce loneliness.
Support you through hard times. Even if it’s just having someone to share your problems with, friends can help you deal with serious illness, the loss of a job or loved one, the breakup of a relationship, or any other challenges in life.

【推荐3】When I was in my first year of high school, I had a terrible time when every area of my life was a disaster. I felt so hopeless and alone that I thought everything was impossible.
On one such day, I was walking from class across the school to catch the school bus home, with my head down, fighting tears of total hopelessness, when a young man came down the sidewalk toward me. Though I had never seen him before, I did not want him to see that I was in such low spirits, so I turned my head away and hoped to hurry past. I thought he'd walk on by, but he moved until he was directly in front of me, waited until I looked up, and then smiled.
Looking into my eyes, this stranger spoke in a quiet voice："Whatever is wrong will pass. You're going to be OK, just hang on." He then smiled again and walked away.
I can't explain the effect of that man's unexpected kindness and caring! He gave me the one thing that I'd lost completely—hope. I looked for him in our school to thank him, but never saw him again.
That was thirty years ago. And I've never forgotten that moment. Over the years, whenever I see someone who is in trouble, I will always think of that young man and try to give a flash of hope in the dark wherever I can. I carry things for people when they are too heavy for them, sit with naughty babies in the waiting room while their mothers are busy, or talk to tired couples at the checkout line or it could be anything.
If you keep your head up, your heart will show you the place that needs hope.

It reaches the site where the first settlers spent their first winter about 1640. This trail takes about one hour.
Downs Farm Preserve, Cutchogue
This family-friendly place is an easy walk with the trail a mile long. It’s a very peaceful location to see wildlife and birds. The trail is flat and pushchair-friendly.
