Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

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 strong­minded 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.

Life affects friendships.As we grow, marry, fight in wars, move across the country or change jobs, old friendships fall away and new ones form.As long as we live, the things around us change, and as long as things change, friendships are affected.

When we were children, we had best friends.No matter what happened we were still friends.We live our lives, however, do what life calls for us to do, and as we got older, memories fade, faces blur(变得模糊), and even friends' names from childhood are forgotten.

Do you have a question about friendship? Do you wonder what to do with a friend who is no longer friendly? Perhaps you will see that you can't control others.If someone wants to be your friend, it is their choice.All you can do is treat them well and do your best for them when you are with them.Then you wish them well when they leave.

You can talk to old timers and they will tell you that life is full of incredible joy and incredible sorrow, and that what bothers you today will one day become a memory and the pain will be gone.Seniors might tell you that you will learn more as you get older.They will tell you that friendships come and friendships go.Sometimes when they go it will hurt, but you will be okay with it.It's the way life works, after all.

[语篇解读]　本文主要阐述了应该如何使用正确的态度面对友谊的改变。
