Cindy, Jerry and Mary are sitting in the classroom and talking about something.

Cindy: I think a good friend should be honest（诚实的）. That is more important than any other thing and is where a good friendship starts. If a friend isn’t honest, he may lose his friends’ trust.

Jerry: I think a good friend has to be generous. Here “generous” doesn’t mean he has to give his friends his lunch money or his clothes. It means he should share his ideas and feelings with his friends. In fact, his friends can know him better in this way.

Mary: In my opinion, a good friend should understand（理解）his friends. When there’s something wrong between him and his friends, he must put himself in his friends’ place and think more for his friends.

Being outgoing is good for your life. Those who are more outgoing like to meet lots of people and have more fun in life. In fact, being outgoing is not so hard as you think. Even (甚至) shy people can be outgoing.

You can start becoming outgoing with your best friend or a group of friends. But the real challenge (挑战) comes when you meet strange people or new friends. Smile more, and usually they will return smiles to you. In this way, you may have some talks.

Start a talk. Just a simple “Hello” or “How is it going?” is a good start. If you want to make interesting talks, you should read news in newspapers and prepare (准备) your views, or surf the Internet for new information and then keep that in mind.

The easiest way to become more outgoing is to go out. This is also the most important step. Go to a park, beach, club, party or any other place that you think can be fun, and you may make new friends there.
