That is why some friendships dont last（持續(xù)） very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat （對(duì)待）your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous；be understanding.Honesty means being honest. It is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you dont tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you havent been honest, you may lose your friends trust. Good friends always count on（依賴） one another to speak and act honestly.Generositymeans sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You dont have to give your friend your lunch money or your clothes, or enjoy your hobbies and interests together. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable（有價(jià)值的） to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know you better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve . Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend, you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friends place, so you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are ever exactly alike (相同). But all true friendships have three things in common(共同的). If you plan to keep your friendships, you must practice honesty,Generosity and understanding.61. Some friendships dont last very long because .A. there are too many people who want to make friends B. they dont know friendship is something seriousC. those who give others friendships receive friendships from othersD. they dont return friendship to each other.62.

Three Important Points in LifeCExcept for a few times, Americans are not big present-givers. Theres no exchange of presents among business people, and if one American tries to give another a present, it may look like that he wants to bribe (賄賂) him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to give presents to others, but among ourselves we dont see the need for presents.Even friends may never exchange presents. When I go to foreign countries, I try to bring back little things for close friends, but nobody would feel unhappy if I didnt. I dont often remember a friends birthday, and few people outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, Id get unpleasant. But a present from a foreigner - that kind from his or her homeland wont go wrong, except to government employees (政府職員) who cant be given presents.You usually open a present at once and in front of the person who gives it except Christmas and birthday presents. You should only say, "Its so nice. Thanks" when you get Christmas or birthday presents.You may want to bring a bottle of wine (葡萄酒) or flowers to a dinner party, but yourenever asked to. Nobody will mind if you bring wine, but your friend may not use it that evening.At Christmas we often give presents to our family and sometimes our friends. We also give presents to people who have been helpful during the year- doormen, babysitters, housecleaners, newspaper senders anyone who has often helped us.66.
