These may be the most fun parts of hanging out (闲逛) with friends. 46 If young people don’t learn how to keep friendships, they can easily become lonely and depressed (沮丧的), according to the University of Arizona in the US.
Unlike being with one’s parents, hanging out with friends is good for developing social skills (社交技巧). 47 “If we have different ideas, we usually take a vote (投票) to decide where to go,” said Yang Kaiyue, a 14-year-old schoolgirl from Anhui.
In China, most kids like to go shopping, go to the cinema and have lunch or dinner together. 48 And kids in the US often play video games together or play sports, like basketball, in the park.

Sometimes, we fall over. Here we also have another choice. 53 Or, we can get back on our feet and begin climbing that mountain again.
If we reach the goal for this year, we start from zero to reach the goal for next year. We shouldn’t spend the rest of our lives looking back at where we used to be. 54
Many people will waste time worrying. “Can I reach my final goal?” or “Is it worth doing?” 55 The question is, “Can I take the next step in the right direction?”
Take one step at a time, and pay attention to tomorrow’s step today.
A. We have no choice but to do it.
B. That is not the question.
C. We can stop and complain about what progress we have lost.
