What can similarities bring to a friendship?
What can differences bring to a friendship?
What really matters in a friendship?
similarity n. 相似之处
由“similar(adj. 相似的)+-ity(名词后缀)”构成
friendship n. 友谊;友情
由“friend(n. 朋友)+-ship(名词后缀)”构成
v.要紧
Similarities can bring friends closer. They can enjoy the same hobbies and understand each other easily.

Differences are also important. They can help friends learn new things and grow. For example, one friend may be good at sports while the other may be good at reading. They can share their skills and become better together.
Post-reading
I think trust and kindness really matter in a friendship. Besides, friends should care for each other and be honest.
