As I was finishing seventh grade, my school decided to make some changes because of financial(财政)problems．The school would make the classes bigger, so there could be fewer teachers．We needed to write down the names of people we wanted to be with and didn't want to be with．I wrote down the names of all my close friends．
I found out that none of my close friends were in any of my new classes．Also, my new classmates were quite different from my old ones．I thought they weren't as smart as my old classmates．They also weren't in the school activities I was in．I couldn't find common interests with them．
As the year went on, I began to feel lonely and envy people in other groups．Why could they be with all their friends? As I found out, they didn't have many friends at first．They had made new friends in their new classes．They seemed pretty happy with their new friends．
I decided it was time for me to make new friends．I noticed that the people with many friends were very active．They often talked to others first, while I was too scared to talk to others and hoped other people would talk to me first．
Once I realized that, I found that making friends is very easy if you can accept people for who they are, respect them, and talk to them．Now I feel a lot happier because I have more friends．

What problem did the writer have in the new classes?
Once upon a time all feelings went to an island for a vacation, and each was having a goodtime．Suddenly, a warning of a strong storm was announced, so all rushed to their boats．Yet, Love did not wish to run away quickly．There was so much to do．But as the clouds darkened, Love realized it was time to leave．But there were no boats to use．Love looked around with hope．
Just then Richness was passing by Love in a large boat．Love shouted, “Richness, can you take me with you? ” Richness answered, “No, I can't．There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat．There is no place here for you．”
Love decided to ask Vanity(虚荣)who was also passing by in a beautiful boat for help, But Vanity said with a cold voice, “No, I can't take you with me．My boat will get dirty with your mummy feet．”
Sorrow passed by after some time．Again, Love asked for help．But it was useless．“No, I can't take you with me．I am so sad．I want to be by myself．”
When Happiness passed by a few minutes later, Love again called for help．But Happiness was so happy that it hardly cared about anyone else．
Love was growing worried and hopeless．Just then somebody called out, “Come, Love, I will take you with me．” Love did not know who was being so kind, but jumped onto the boat happily．
After getting off the boat, Love met Knowledge．Love asked, “Knowledge, do you know who was so kind to give me a lift when no one else wished to help? ”
Knowledge smiled, “Oh, that was Time．”
“Time? ” asked Love．“But why did Time help me? ” Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, “Because only Time is able to understand how valuable(有价值的)Love is．”
