What’s a good friend like? One may have different answers to this question at different ages.

When he grows older and studies in a middle school, his idea about a good friend changes. He thinks a good friend should be helpful and honest. A good friend should always help him with his lessons. A good friend should come to him when he is sad. And he is always ready to tell everything to his friend. If his friend tells others about his secrets, he may hate the friend.

If the truth (真相) may hurt the friend, it’s better to keep it secret from him than tell him about it. And he may think a good friend can give him some good advice when he has problems.
