       Practicing tolerance will allow everyone to form better    43    with each other. Getting to know someone   44     help you understand why they do things   45   from you. It is important to remember that just because something is different does not mean that it is bad.   46   teaches us to keep an even temper and open mind.

       One thing to   47   is the old saying, “Treat others how you want   48   ”. You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates, so it is   49   to treat them with equal kindness. If you tolerate   50   it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to   51   who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you will be   52   of the differences in others and not try to make them change.

       It is important to   53    tolerance because it will make everyone’s lives easier.  Learn to   54   people for their different abilities and interests. The world is a very   55   , and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make    56   .
