Appreciation (2m)

Proverbs about friends and friendship.A friend in need is a friend

indeed.Friends are like wine; the

older, the better.When you meet your friend,

your face shines----you have found gold.

A friend to all is a friend to none.

The same man cannot be both friend and flatterer.

The best mirror is an old friend.

False friends are worse than open enemies.

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.

Friendship cannot stand always on one side.

The friendship that can end was never real.

With clothes the new are best; with friends the old are the best.

Sample VersionSample VersionDear Xiaodong, I’m sorry to hear about your problem and thank y

ou for your trust. You’re feeling quite lonely and find it hard to make friends with your classmates, because you have some problems in communicating with people.

You are asking how to make good friends with others. I’d like to give you some advice on it. First of all, I think you should make an effort to change the situation, because friends and friendship are important to you. You can try your best to start talking to people about what you both like. You’d

better find the chance to join in people’s discussion in

order to understand and communicate with each other. You may show your interest in their talk. You should try to make friends with one or two classmates. If you want to develop a friendship with others, you should first have self-confidence. If you want others to treat you as friends, you should first treat them as friends. Being a good listener is also very important. When listening to a friend, you can show that you are concentrated by looking into his or her eyes and asking questions. I hope my advice is helpful and I wish you make some good friends successfully as soon as possible. Best wishes, Yours truly, Li Hua
