【推荐2】I think a close friend is someone you get on well with, who helps you when you have problems, who gives you advice, and who always has time for you. I didn’t use to have many close friends when I was at school because I was very shy, but now I have several. They are all women. I think it’s difficult to have a close friend of the opposite sex (异性)．
—Marie
I think a close friend is someone who you’ve known for a long time, and who you still get on with. They have similar hobbies to you so you can do things together. I’ve got three close friends who I was at middle school with and we often go out together (without our parents of course). We often go camping, play football, or walk outside in the open air.
—David
I’m not sure how to answer the question because I don't really have any close friends. I know a lot of people but mainly through work, and the social occasions (场合) when we meet are business dinners, things like that. I think if you come from a really close family, friends are a bit unnecessary. I like spending my free time with my family.
—Richard
For me close friends are the people you spend your free time with. I go out at weekends with a group of people, and they are all my close friends. They’re also people who live near me. I don’t think you can have close friends at a distance because you need to be able to see each other often. But I don’t think you need to be doing the same things. I mean I’m at school but none of my friends are.
—Anna
