That day, the weather was very hot, and I was so nervous that I was unable to keep, still land think calmly. My friend John and I were discussing a problem, I thought this was the right thing to do, but he thought that was the right thing to do.
In the middle of our discussion, he made ink from his pen on my new notebook by accident. I was very angry and I said to him, “Why did you do that?” As I spoke, I deliberately spilled the ink from my pen into his book. “You, you did it on purpose,” he said loudly. At that moment, he was very angry, his face was red with anger, his eyebrows were almost raised, his forehead was wrinkled (皱起) more and more tight, and his mouth was wide open with anger. Suddenly, he pushed my things on the table to the floor. When I saw him do this, I was annoyed with him very much, so I pushed his to the floor, and angrily said to him, “We are no longer friends!” “Well, it’s you who break off the friendship!” The friend shouted like a lion. I immediately took my things and left.
From that day on, every time I met him, I would take another way to avoid him. When I met him, he seemed to want to say something. However, I didn’t wait for him to say anything, and ran away like an arrow.
Since that incident, I had been reflecting(反思) on, myself, feeling that I had done something wrong, but I didn’t have enough courage to apologize to him. I knew that he didn’t mean to make ink from his pen on the book that time, but I exactly did. I shouldn’t have made his book wet in ink by design. I hated myself all the time. I was angry with myself.

4 . Friendships can enrich your life in many ways. Good friends teach you about yourself and challenge you to be better.
●Friends encourage healthy behaviors
One possible explanation for those health benefits is that friendships can help you make lifestyle changes that can have a direct impact on your well-being. For example, your friends can help you set and maintain goals to eat better and exercise more.
●
If you find yourself going through a hard time, having a friend to help you through can make the transition (转变) easier.
Research also shows that happiness is contagious (有感染力的) among friends. One study of high school students found that those who were depressed were twice as likely to recover if they had happy friends.
●Friends help build your confidence
●Friends push you to be your best
Great friends have the power to mold(塑造) you into the best version of yourself.

Mike and Daniel were good friends. They ran a barbershop in a town. Mike and Daniel were kind to others, so they had a good relationship with the neighbors around them. One of them was an elderly lady called Mary.
Mary’s house was located in the same street as their barbershop, a few hundred metres away. Mary lived alone and her son worked in another city. So, she usually came to the barbershop to chat with Mike and Daniel. They liked Mary very much and regarded her as their own family.
One day three years ago, Mike and Daniel noticed that Mary had not been in their shop for a long time. They both began to feel worried about her. But the other neighbors told them that Mary might have gone to see her son. That reassured them.
A few weeks later, Mary returned. The next day, she came to the barbershop. Unlike before, Mary looked sad this time. Instead of talking to Mike and Daniel, she sat silently. At that time, Mike and Daniel were busy, but they still smiled and asked Mary what had happened. Mary just laughed and asked them not to worry.
After a few minutes, they finished their work, so they began to ask Mary in detail about the specifics of the situation. Mary remained silent and just got up slowly. She came and sat down in front of Mike and said sadly, “I don’t want to cut my hair, but I have to.” Mike didn’t pay much attention to what she said and just told her to relax. Then he picked up the scissors and started to work.
At this time, Daniel noticed that Mary started to cry, so he hurriedly asked Mike to stop. They started begging Mary to tell them the truth. Eventually, Mary told them what had happened. It turned out that Mary had been diagnosed with a brain tumor (肿瘤) and needed to undergo surgery and have her hair cut. But she was unwilling to cut it and felt that being bald (秃头的) would make her look ugly.

7 . How to Make Friends at Community College
Making friends in community college is a bit trickier than in four-year schools in some cases. Students don’t typically dorm at community colleges, so there isn’t always a shared living environment.
Get hired on campus
While working part-time, most initial engagement involves assisting students with their needs. For example, if you work in the bookstore, the conversational icebreaker usually focuses on finding out what the other students need to find. Previously, you may have only had opportunities to socialize with other students in your classes.
Attend events
College work will occupy most of your day. Your health, for one, is something you may start to neglect as you throw yourself fully into college life. Needless to say, ignoring your health is absolutely unacceptable.
A.Work out with a partner |
B.Find a job in your gym |
C.You may start to see some new faces at your job though. |
D.However, that doesn’t mean opportunities aren’t available |
E.Community colleges offer programs that are two years long |
F.Community colleges do hold a variety of activities throughout the year |
G.Finding yourself an exercise buddy will help encourage you to become more active |
8 . Friendships can have a major impact on your health and happiness, but it’s not always easy to develop or maintain friendships. It’s necessary to understand the importance of social connection in your life and how to meet new friends.
Good friends are good for your health. Friends can help you celebrate good times and provide support during bad times. Friends prevent isolation and loneliness and give you a chance to offer needed companionship, too. Friends also play a significant role in promoting your overall health. Adults with strong social connections have a reduced risk of many significant health problems, including depression, high blood pressure and an unhealthy body mass index (BMI). In fact, studies have found that older adults who have meaningful relationships and social support are likely to live longer than their peers with fewer connections.
Many adults find it hard to develop new friendships or keep up existing friendships. Friendships may take a back seat to other priorities, such as work or caring for children or aging parents. You and your friends may have grown apart due to changes in your lives or interests. Or maybe you’ve moved to a new community and haven’t yet found a way to meet people. Developing and maintaining good friendships takes effort. The enjoyment and comfort friendship can provide, however, makes the investment worthwhile.
So, what are some ways to meet new friends? It’s possible to develop friendships with people who are already in your social network. Think through people you’ve interacted with— even very casually— who made a positive impression. If anyone stands out in your memory as someone you’d like to know better, reach out. Ask mutual friends or acquaintances to share the person’s contact information, or— even better— to reintroduce the two of you with a text, email or in-person visit. Extend an invitation to coffee or lunch.
To meet new people who might become your friends, you have to go to places where others are gathered. Don’t limit yourself to one strategy for meeting people. The broader your efforts, the greater your likelihood of success. Persistence also matters. Take the initiative rather than waiting for invitations to come your way and keep trying. You may need to suggest plans a few times before you can tell if your interest in a new friend is mutual.
