Friendship (友谊) is important in a person’s life. Now I want to tell you some of my _______ about it.

Today I met _______ l8-year-old girl named Lily. She told me her experience. Some years ago she _______ her best friend Bob’s heart in a basketball game. She wasn’t happy and didn’t know _______ to get Bob back. From then on, Lily _______ had true friendship.

This is not only Lily’s problem. We all may meet kinds of problems in our life. Almost all the people have friends but only _______ of them can get true friendship. That’s because they think what their friends do is what they should do. And they won’t _______ it before losing it.

How can we get true friendship? It _______ much time and also needs love. If you spend much time _______ good to your friends, they can feel it and love you, too. When there are problems what we should do is to face them but not to ignore (忽视) .

I also hope you can have true friendship in your life. I’m sure you’ll be much __________.

Yours,

Gina
