       Life is filled with challenges. As we get older we come to realize that those challenges are the very things that shape us and make us who we are, it is the same with the challenges that come with friendship.

       When we are faced with a challenge, we usually have two choices: we can try to beat if off, or we can decide that the thing presenting the challenges isn’t worth the trouble and call it quits. Although there are certainly times when calling it quits is the right thing to do, in most cases all that is needed is commitment and communication.

       When we are committed to something, it means that no matter how painful or how uncomfortable something is, we will always choose to face it and work through instead of running away from it. Communication is making a space for discussion and talking about how you feel as opposed to just saying what the other person did wrong. If you can say to a friend, “I got my feelings hurt.” rather than “You hurt my feelings.” You are going to be able to solve the problem much faster.

       In dealing with many challenges that friendship will bring to you, try to see them for what they are: small hurdles you need to jump or get through on your way through life. Nothing is so big that it is impossible to get over, and hurt only serves to make us stronger. It’s all part of growing up. It happens to everyone, and some day you will look back on all of this and say, “Hard as it was, it made me who I am today. And that’s a good thing.”

MONEY – SAVING TIPS FOR DISNEY WORLD

Every time you visit Disney World, there’s something new to see. What began in 1971 as the Magic Kingdom now includes the high – tech, movie-mad Disney and Animal Kingdom . Each time the park expands(扩大), so do your chances to spend money. How can you save ? As a family guide to Disney World, I've been to the park more than 25 times with my kids , and I've developed a few money-saving tips for you.

●Buy the Five-Day All-in-One Hopper Pass. Even if you're visiting for fewer days , it's a deal (The pass costs $ 229 for visitors aged 10 and up , $ 183 for kids aged three to nine and is free for kids under age three). Without the pass , you'll have to pay separately for Pleasure Island and the water parks . A single trip to Blizzard Beach , for example , would cost a family of four $100.

  ● Dine out at Lunchtime. The prices at some of the nicer restaurants , especially those in Epcot's World Showcase , are much lower at noontime than at any other time. It's wise to make reservations(预定)before you leave home . Call 407-W-DISNEY .

 ● Become a Gold Card Member.  For $ 65 , you can get a Magic Kingdom Club Gold Card (call 1-800-56-DISNEY). Cardholders get up to 20% off Disney hotel rooms , plus prices on character breakfast , theme park tickets and goods from Disney stores .

 ● Don't Pay Extra to See a Character.  Character-theme dinner shows are expensive , costing a family of four about $ 140 , and even a character breakfast , where Mickey or Donald Duck joins you for cakes , can set you back $ 50. If your budget (预算) is tight, try to meet the characters inside the theme parks and at free in-park shows . You can watch the Diamond Horseshoe show , for example , in the Magic Kingdom for no additional cost , while the similarly themed Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue needs expensive tickets .

 ● Wait Until the End of Your Trip to Buy Souvenirs.  By then , the kids will really know what they want , and you won't waste money on expensive things .

If you are short of money, the writer suggests you should not        .

       A.buy things for the kids from Disney stores.

       B.buy souvenirs at the beginning of the trip

       C.make a trip to Blizzard Beach

       D.have your meals out at noontime

Which of the following can be used in place of “set you back”

       A.offer you  B.save you   C.return you D.cost you

You should pay more money if you         .

       A.have a five – day All – One Hopper Pass while you’re visiting for four days.

       B.do not make a reservation for hotel rooms in advance..

       C.are not a Magic Kingdom Club Gold Card holder.

       D.have lunch at a restaurant in Epcot’s World Showcase

In the writer’s opinion, the better way of meeting the Disney cartoon character is        .

       A.to have a character breakfast

       B.to watch the Diamond Horseshoe show

       C.to pay separately for Pleasure Island and the water parks

       D.to attend the Hoop – Dee – Doo Musical Revue
