| Your Best Friend
Tell me about one of your friends.
You should say: who the friend is and how you first met him/her
what you enjoy doing together what her personality is like
and explain why your friendship is special．
·Name? When where did we meet?
·How often do we see each other? What do we have in common?
·His qualities
·A memory
·The future
Let me tell you about my best friend. His name is Jeff and we met in high-school where we used to be classmates．Jeff is my best friend because I can really count on him：he's the person I trust most. He's extremely considerate．He's very thoughtful. He always cares about other people.
We often get together to play basketball. We hang out on the weekend. We have a lot of things in common. We both like sports; we both love to watch the NBA and especially the Houston Rockets. We sometimes play online games too, or watch movies together.
Jeff is a very good listener. He's very enthusiastic and always optimistic. Whenever I have a
problem at school, he's always there to cheer me up．He's fun to be with!
Last year, we had to study hard for the college entrance examination and he helped me with the science subjects．He's a hard-working student and he can be serious too because he wants to become a lawyer, and he knows what his priorities are.
Next year, I will go to America to get a Bachelor's degree and Jeff will stay in China, but I know that we will keep in touch through emails and messages．And even if we don't get to see each other often, we both know we can rely on each other and THIS is true friendship！

1.How do people meet new friends?
Well, I think that most young people make new friends at school or at university. It is always easier to become friends when you see each other every day, and when you have the same interests or goals．On the other hand, when we become older, it's common to become closer to our co-workers. It is also possible to form a good relationship with people when you participate in an activity together such as a basketball team, or a dance troop．A lot of old people get together for dancing every night where I live.
2. What can cause people to lose contact with friends?
I think that time and distance can make you lose touch with your friends. When we get older, people follow different paths and people move to other cities. As time goes by, we meet new friends; we get responsibilities in our work, in our families, and it's possible to forget about the past, and our old friends．
3.What are some of the responsibilities of being a good friend?
A good friend must support and advise you. A good friend should always be there to listen to you, especially when you're having some troubles ． I believe that a good friend should be thoughtful and kind. A good friend is someone you can trust and rely on at any time.
Do friends or family have more influence on young people today?
That's a hard question, because in today's China, parents are still very influential. Children listen to their parents, even if they might disagree．There is always this notion of respect towards parents．On the other hand, young people spend more and more time with their friends：they chat online all the time, they are able to send text messages to each other anytime they want, and friendship is an extremely important value in our society. I would say that young people probably consider their friends’ advice first, but ultimately (= eventually ＝ at last) they follow their parents’ decision.
How important is friendship in the workplace?
think that friendship at work is extremely important (= essential) because if you get along well with your colleagues and your boss, you will enjoy work better, and as a result, the job will get done more efficiently. I believe that team work is now fundamental to any type of business．If you are good friends with your colleagues, you can help, advise and support each other.
Do you think that parents and children can be good friends？
think it is possible, but difficult. Friendship is based on communication and trust. So if the parents talk a lot to their kids, and give them freedom, then I think it is possible for them to be friends．But you know in China, very often, parents want to control their children's lives．They don't give them enough space, and this creates a gap between the two generations．Many children believe that their parents represent authority, and that they always have to do what their parents ask them: this is not friendship．
