Have you ever heard the saying "If you want a friend, be one"? If you want to make friends with others, you should be friendly to them first.

      Here is how one new teacher made friends with the students in her class on the first day of school. As the bell rang, the teacher smiled （微笑） at each student. Then she said in a quiet voice,"Good morning. How nice it is to have all of you in my class this year. I'd like to know each of you. I am sure we will enjoy working together." Her voice was sweet（甜美的） and her look was friendly, so everyone felt happy.

      She told the students her name and wrote it on the blackboard. Then she told them some of the things she liked to do and she hoped to do with them during the year. Then she said to the boys and girls, "Now you know my name and the things I like and I want to know your names and the things you like."

      Could you make friends by doing the same as this teacher did?

      One way of getting to know girls and boys in your class is to find out more about them. People often make friends with those who are the same as them. You play the same games and go on vacations together. It is a good way to make friends.

Get on a bicycle and ride around your neighbourhood. You may discover something new all around you. Stopping and getting off a bike is easier than stopping and getting out  of your car. You can bike to work and benefit (受益) from the enjoyable exercise without polluting the environment. You don’t even have to ride all the way.

Folding (折叠) bikes work well for people who ride the train. Just fold the bike and take it with you. You can do the same on an airplane. A folding bike can be packed in a suitcase. You can also take a common bike with you when you fly. But be sure to look for information by getting on airline websites. Not all airlines are bicycle-friendly to travellers.
