The concept of friendship is universal and timeless. It is something that everyone can relate to, regardless of age, gender, or cultural background. In this unit, we will explore the theme of friendship from various perspectives, including the definition of friendship, the qualities of a good friend, and the impact of technology on modern friendships.2. Definition of Friendship。
Friendship is a complex and multifaceted relationship that involves mutual affection, trust, and support. It is often characterized by shared interests, experiences, and values. Friends are individuals who provide emotional and social support, companionship, and a sense of belonging. They are also people with whom we can share our joys and sorrows, and who can offer us valuable advice and encouragement.3. Qualities of a Good Friend。
