16．How to Make Friends
Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends．Good friendship has many benefits．It offers companionship，improves self-worth and promotes good health．There are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town，or changed our jobs or schools．Such changes often leave us without a friend．Making new friends comes easy for some people．But for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage．Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends．
*Associate with others．
（31）DYou can go to public places to meet new people．Besides，you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places．
*Start a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends．（32）GYou can always start the conversation，Being able to make small talk is a very useful skill in relating with other people．
*（33）A
Choosing friends with common interests is important in buiding friendship as these interests would always bring you and your friend together．Hanging out will always be a pleasant experience．
*Let it grow．
It is a good thing to stay in touch．However，try not to press your new friend with calls，messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend．（34）C The best friendships are the ones that grow naturally．
*Enjoy your friendship．
The best way to enjoy your friendship is to allow your friends to be themselves．（35）BTry not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be．Become the kind of friend you will want your friend to be to you．

A．Do things together．
B．Try not to find fault with your friends．
C．So you will need to give your friend time to keep in touch with you．
D．The first step to make friends is associating with other people．
E．Be cheerful．
F．For a friendship to develop you need to stay in touch．
G．Do not wait to be spoken to．

6．Although many Chinese students say their knowledge of English grammar is good，most would admit that their spoken English is poor．（36）E However，their spoken English does not have to remain poor．I would suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English．
First，（37）B．Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary．However，you can speak with a limited vocabulary if your attitude is positive．Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know．
Second，（38）G．Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous．Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY．You want to get your message across，to talk to someone in English，as quickly and as well as you can，even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense，but it doesn't matter because the person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowance for any mistakes he hears．
The third，（39）A．You have one mouth but two ears!All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking．
Fourth，（40）C．Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English，they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their spoken English always remains poor．If you have this proactive outlook，then you will see English opportunities wherever you go．
A．not enough attention is paid to listening．
B．they fail to find suitable words to express themselves because of limited vocabulary．
C．most Chinese students are not active language learners．
D．They are so stupid that they cannot finish their necessary homework in time．
E．Whenever I speak to Chinese students they always say，"My spoken English is poor．"
F．it is no use crying over spilt milk．
G．they are afraid of making mistake．

I believed that I was right and he was wrong-and he was sure that I was wrong and he was right．The teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson．
She brought us up to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other．In the middle of her desk was a large，round object．I could clearly see that it was black．She asked the boy what color the object was．"White，"he answered．
I couldn't believe he said the object was white，when it was obviously black!Another argument started between my classmate and me．Seeing this，the teacher told us to change places，and this time I found the object was white．
It was an object with two differently colored sides，and from his side it was white．Only from my side it was black．
