“No man is an island” is a well-known line John Dona’s Devotion, written more than three hundred years ago. Even now people still agree him. No one can live a completely isolated life. Without other people, life became empty and sad. We all need to have friends.
For some of us, though making friends is not difficult, feeling sheepish, we may not want to make the first move. It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.
There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People, written in 1936, is the most famous. This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best seller. It was later put into 28 languages.
Dale Carnegie’s advice seems to be simple. But can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book:
1．Be friendly and polite.
Always greet with a smile. Begin with “excuse me” or “would you mind” when __________. Remember to say “thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.
2．Go out of your way to be nice.
Find some time to do special things for other people. Making some soup for a sick neighbor
may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your neighbor feel a lot better.
3．Remember names.
They say that the sweetest music to a person’s ears is the sound of his or her own name.
4．Be open-minded.
Try to understand other people’s way and ideas and learn something from them.
5．Listen patiently.
When someone is talking to you, look at her, listen carefully and say something when necessary.

People take up hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment，friendship，knowledge and relaxation.Sometimes they even yield financial profit.Hobbies help people relax after periods of hard work，and provide a balance between work and play.Hobbies also offer interesting activities for persons who have retired.Anyone，rich or poor，old or young，sick or well，can follow a satisfying hobby，regardless of his age，position，or income.Friendship is one of the basic bonds (纽带) between human beings. While the characteristics of friendship might vary from one country to another, people from all cultures not only enjoy friends but need them.
Many studies have shown that teenagers who have no friends often suffer from psychological disorders. It has been shown that teenagers, perhaps more than any other age group, need companionship and a sense of belonging. The negative consequences of loneliness have also been observed among the elderly. The death of a spouse often leaves a widow or a widower totally bereft (失去). If, however, they are surrounded by friends and relatives and if they are able to articulate（清楚表达） their feelings, they are more likely to recover from their grief.
“No man is an island.” In other words, we are all parts of society. We all need the love, admiration, respect and moral support of other people. If we are fortunate, our friends will provide us with all of these necessary aspects of life.
As most people observe, there are many levels of friendship. The degree or intensity of friendship varies depending on the personality of the individuals involved and the context of the relationships. Extroverts (性格外向者) enjoy being surrounded by many people whereas introverts（性格内向者）are perhaps content with fewer but more intense friendships.
Everyone is not equally open with all their friends. The degree of intimacy (密切) is determined by many factors. Close friends can be formed at any stage in one’s life but they are usually very rare. Not very many people have more than a few really close friends. Irrespective of the level of intimacy, all friendships are based on reciprocity（相互性）, honesty and a certain amount of love and affection.
