Everyone needs friends. Friends bring us happiness and hope in our lives. But the ability to make friends changes from person to person. To some people, making friends is easy, and to others it’s very difficult.

Making friends is a skill, and the first thing is to know how to get on with others.

If you have trouble in making friends, maybe I can tell you how to do it.

● Realize your own good points. You have skills and talents(才能) that others will like. ● Believe that you are a good person and have something nice to share with others.

● Be humourous. Learn to laugh at yourself and your weakness. Remember to smile at

others.

● Respect(尊敬) the others. Everyone has his own idea. Learn how to listen to others’

ideas without trying to make them accept yours.

● Be kind. If you are kind to others, they will usually be kind to you. There are hundreds

of little things you can do to show your kindness. Open the door for someone. Wave to a friend and so on.

● Don ’t complain(抱怨). Learn to accept what you can ’t change, and work hard to

change what you can. No one is willing to hear your complaints all the time.

My dream

Everyone may have his own dream. Someone may want to be rich, someone may want to

be beautiful, and someone may want to have power. Last Monday, we had a warm discussion about this topic at the class meeting. Here are different opinions.

Tom would like to have an healthy diet and more exercise. He wants to own a strong body so that he can be a volunteer to help people in need. In Kate’s opinion, her dream is to live in a beautiful and less polluted world. If she can smell the flowers and hear the birds sing around, she will be full of joy. Mary hopes to fly to HongKong to do some shopping one day because HongKong is a wonderful place to go shopping. Millie is interested in educational computer games. So she wishes to play computer games and learn something about Geography and English at the same time.

My dream is to study abroad one day. I really want to make more friends and learn more about the world.

When thinking of these things, we realize that we are full of life and hope. All of us believe that our dreams will come true if we try our best.
