True friends are hard to find. You often think you can believe in someone, but later he or she may let you down. However, always be a good friend yourself and you may change the situations.

    1    

Part of being a friend is being prepared to devote your time and energy to helping out your friend. If your friend needs a shoulder to cry on, just be there for him or her. You will attract those who value your loyalty.

    2    

When you say you will do something, do it. When your friend tells you a secret, keep it secret from others. Be someone that people know that they can rely on. If you show this quality to your friend, he or she will appreciate it and will be reliable in return.

Be a good listener.

Many people think they have to appear very interesting. Far more than that, however, is your ability to show that you’re interested in others. Listen carefully to what people say, remember important details about them, ask questions about their interests, and take time to learn more about them.

    3    

Show others what makes you stand apart from the crowd. Talk about interests and hobbies. Everyone has interesting stories to tell—don’t be afraid to share yours. Besides, a little humour always keeps a conversation light and happy. People love to be around someone who makes them laugh.

A. Be a reliable friend.
B. Be loyal to a friend.
C. Stress your good qualities.
D. Tell your secret to your friend.

5 . Friendship makes life more enjoyable and colorful. Here are some tips for you to make friends.

Make yourself available. Put yourself out there somehow in order to meet people. If you’re still in school, sit somewhere with two other people. If you see opportunities to meet new people, take them.     1    

    2     Be open to trying new activities to meet people around you who have common interests. For example, if you love books and want to meet like-minded friends, join a book club. People who have a passion (激情) for books will end up meeting people with the same interest.

Talk to others actively.     3     You can start talking to people by simply greeting them with a “Good morning, how are you?” as you pass them by.     4    You can talk to anybody: the person sitting next to you in public, or the person in front of you in the lunch line.

Use social media wisely.     5     Social media has given us the amazing ability to connect with people on the Internet and turn them into friends. Using social media like Facebook may be a perfect way to meet people who share the same interest as you.

A．Don’t be too picky.

B．Meet new people nearby.

C．We live in a digital world.

D．Follow people and have fun.

E．If someone invites you to a party, go for it.

F．We shouldn’t make friends on the Internet.

G．If you don’t actually talk to people, you still won’t make friends.

7 . Don’t get me wrong-I love my parents very much. I know they love me too and would do anything to help me but sometimes they can be really embarrassing. Dad wanting to pick me up from school, Mum getting overexcited when she watches me playing football for the school team.    1    . My friends all complain about theirs from time to time. It seems a few cruel parents want to see their kids suffer on purpose, but others are just trying to be cool and fit in with our friends. There’s not really much we can do about it, or is there? Here are a few tips I’ve come up with to make life just a little easier for all of us.

Choose the behaviour you find most embarrassing

    2    . And then put them in order. Is the fact that your dad sings along to the radio when your friends are over for dinner worse than the fact that he always calls your best friend by the wrong name? By deciding which ones are worse means you’ll be free to focus your energy where you need it most.

    3    

When you’ve decided which issues you want to talk about, keep a diary of all the times your mum or dad do the things that embarrass you most. When, where and how you felt - make a note of all these things. They’ll help you put your case across.

Have a family meeting

It’s time for a little face-to-face chat.The chances are that even if your parents are aware of doing these things, they prob-ably don’t realize how embarrassing they are. Keep calm.    4    . Let them have their say — they’ll probably want to defend themselves. Of course, you’ll also have to be prepared to listen to some of the things that they don’t like about you. It’s part of the deal.

Try and be more understanding

Hopefully your parents will listen and be willing to change their ways, especially if you say you’re happy to change too. Of course, sometimes they might not. Re-member that they once had their own embarrassing parents, and the chances are many of us will be embarrassing parents ourselves one day.    5    .

A．Discuss the issues

B．Collect the evidence

C．And I know it’s not just me

D．Let them know how you feel and why

E．Maybe we shouldn’t be too hard on them

F．Write down the things that you feel happy

G．Write a list of all the things you find embarrassing

10 . Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here is some advice for you.

Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t try to talk about something with your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t listen to you if you are shouting at them. Go somewhere else to cool off. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you think you can’t speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter to them.

Try to understand your parents. Your parents may think differently from you. Tell your parents what you think, what you care about and why. Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. Put yourself in their shoes and you may find a better way out.
