The school would make the classes bigger, so there could be fewer teachers. We needed to write down the names of people we wanted to be with and didn’t want to be with. I wrote down the names of all my close friends.I found out that none of my close friends were in any of my new classes. Also, my new classmates were quite different from my old ones. I thought they weren’t as clever as my old classmates. They also weren’t in the school activities I was in. I couldn’t find the same interests with them.As the year went on, I began to feel lonely and envy(羡慕)people in other groups. Why could they be with all their friends? As I found out, they didn’t have many friends at first. They had made new friends in their new classes. They looked really happy with their new friends.I decided it was time for me to make new friends. I found that the people with many friends were very active(活跃的). They often talked to others first, while I was too afraid to talk to others and hoped other people would talk to me first.Once I realized(意识到) that, I found that making friends is very easy if you can accept(接受) people for who they are, respect(尊敬) them, and talk to them. Now I feel a lot happier because I have more friends.( )6. What problem did the writer have in the new classes?A. He couldn’t do what he did in the past.B. His classmates had no interests.C.

It is the groundwork of readi ng and writing. You’d better try your best to speak while you do much listening. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Be careful not to let them stop you from improving（提高）your English. While you are doing this, a good way is to write—keep a diary, write notes or letters; then if you can, ask some people to go through what you have written and tell you what you’ve done wrong. Many mistakes in your speaking will be easily pointed out in your writing. Through correcting（纠正）the mistakes, you can do better in learning English.If you are slow in speaking, don’t worry. One of the helpful ways is reading, either aloud or to yourself. The important thing is to choose something interesting to read. It mustn’t be too difficult for you.
