Today the word friendship has been used so often that it has lost its meaning. Some jokingly or seriously say that friends are made to be used. It makes me very sad.

True friendship doesn’t mean that when you need your friend’s help，you will treat him to dinner，and when you have to protect yourself，you will put your friends in a difficult situation.

In fact，true friendship is the communication and understanding of the hearts（心）.

True friendship is like water. Compared wish decent wine，water is tasteless，but is of great help when we are thirsty. True friends don’t need to be with each other every day，but are connected in heart every minute.

True friendship is like medicine. Though it is bitter，it cures your illness. True friends give you some suggestions even if they know you would not take. They criticize you when others have a good word for you，not because of envy but worrying that you may lose your cool head.

True friendship has nothing to do with fame，power or money. True friends would often watch you silently far away when you are influential，but come to you whenever you need their help. You’re not his stepping-stone to success，but are his crutch to live through difficulties.

True friends make you complete. Many persons go along with you through your life─your parents，your spouse，and your children，who take care of you and make your life happy. However，you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls. Without them，you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit.

True friends stay in your heart，rather than at your side；they know you more than yourself，and try to better you.

Once you have found such a true friend，do treasure（珍惜）him. If your true friend disappears，how can you make the sound of your heart understood？

Does technology influence the purity of Chinese language? Yes!

Many Chinese use messenger tools such as MSN or QQ, listen to music on MP3 players and blog on the Internet using ADSL ,but most people don’t know the Chinese meanings of the abbreviations, as many English letters have become part of the local lexicon（专门词汇）.

A report in a newspaper says that school accidents, such as food poisoning (食物中毒), fires, electricity and traffic, kill more primary and middle school students than anything else. So we must learn how to protect ourselves better. Here are some tips for keeping safety in mind every day.

On our way home or to school: Wait for the green traffic light, and look left and right before we go across the road. We’d better wear bright-color clothes, so the drivers can see us easily. Don’t believe strange people in the street.

At school: When students around us begin to push each other, we need to stand still and try to hold onto something, or stay in a corner until the crowd leaves. If we fall down in a moving crowd, use both hands to cover the head. Lean to one side, curl up (蜷缩) our body and bend (使弯曲) the legs.

In a fire: Stay calm. Leave the classroom quickly under the directions of the teachers. Smoke can be more dangerous than fire, so use a piece of cloth to cover our mouth and nose. What will we do if the clothes burn? Remember not to run! Drop and fall to the ground. Then roll! It will make the fire go out.

For eating: Wash fruits carefully before eating them. Check the expiration dates (保质期) on the packages of the snacks, and if it looks or smells bad, don’t eat it.
