When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness with me. When I was in the eighth grade,

I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates

to learn acceptable social behaviours. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit

down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say, “Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly

together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the

end of that school year, we, too, were changed into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.

When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair (失望) and I was in despair. But our

friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because

we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until

our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.

For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend. We write long letters in which we often discover our

strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain

times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell…” We

have never met.

It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the

lifetime services of a psychologist (心理学家), who will only fill up the healing (愈合的) silence necessary to those

darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.

A. our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of us

What’s your opinion about finding good friends? Speaking from my past experience, it is very difficult to find

good friends that you can trust but once you have found them, they are worth keeping forever! Therefore, I think

friendship is the most important relationship that anybody could have.

The qualities I look for in a friend are a good sense of humour and sensitivity. A friend would have to be strong-minded and highly spirited. I think that these qualities are the key qualities to look for in a good friend.

Even the best friends can still have arguments between themselves, though usually about more serious topics,

rather than the usual childish arguments. Some matters can seriously affect friendship. If one of your friends started

experimenting with harmful and dangerous drugs, what would you do? A good friend would try to help as much as

possible, while a bad example of a friend would simply shrug and turn a blind eye.

Not only the bad things affect friendship—good activities do too, such as bonding with one another, not just by

going out on a night with them, but by spending quality time with them and talking to each other. This is a key aspect

of a good friendship.

Good friends do not always have to be in the same age group as you. I have a good friend and she is 47 years

old and I am 16.

Unfortunately, some people lose contact with their friends as they grow older, which is a sad way to lose a good

friend.

I think friendship is one of the most important things in life because if you have no friends you will have no

happiness.

( )4. According to the author, true friendship ________.

A. is easy to get

B. needs management

C. deepens with time

D. is the friendship without arguments

( )5. According to the author, which matters least in friendship?

А. Age.

B. Confidence.

C. Sense of humour.

D. Communication.

( )6. Which of the following sayings can match the author’s view on friendship?

A. Old friends and old wines are best.

B. A friend without faults will never be found.

C. A friend to everybody is a friend to nobody.
