Should friends be different or the same? We asked some people what they think and this is what they said.

James Green

I like to have friends who are like me. I'm quieter than most of the kids in my class, and my best friend Yuan Li is quiet, too. There are some differences, though. I'm smarter than Yuan Li. She's stronger than me.

Huang Lei

It's not necessary to be the same. I like to have friends who are different from me. My best friend Leo is taller and more outgoing than me. We both like sports, but Leo is more athletic than me. He always beats me in tennis. And I'm quieter than he is.

Mary Smith

I don't really care. My best friend is Carol. Carol is very funny, and more outgoing than I am. But we both like doing the same things. I think differences are not important in a friendship.
