Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship(友谊) back. That is why some friendships don’t last(持续) very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat (对待)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 don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on(依赖) one another to speak and act honestly.

Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t 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(有价值的) to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know you better.

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 friend’s place, so you can understand the problem better.

Except for a few times, Americans are not big present-givers. There's 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 (贿赂) him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to give presents to others, but among ourselves we don't 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 didn't. I don't often remember a friend's birthday, and few people outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, I'd get unpleasant. But a present from a foreigner - that kind from his or her homeland — won't go wrong, except to government employees (政府职员) who can't 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, "It's 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 you're  never 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.

1.What does "close friends" mean in the passage?

A. The friends who are very kind.

B. The friends who live close to each other.

C. The friends who were once classmates.

D.  The friends who you like most.

2.What kind of presents don't Americans usually open in front of the givers?

A. The small presents.

B. Christmas or birthday presents.

C.  The expensive presents.

D.  The presents for dinner party.

3.Why do Americans also give presents to housecleaners at Christmas?

A.  To pay them.

B.  To help them.

C.  To thank them.

D.  To make them work harder.

4.Which of the following do you think is right?

A. American business people don’t want presents because they are rich enough.

B. The writer of this passage must be an American.

C. Everyone must give presents to one’s family and friends at Christmas.

D. Government employees can get little presents from a foreigner.

5.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Present-giving in the United States.

B. Customes in the United States.

C. American people and present-giving.

D. When and how to give presents.

When I was in the seventh grade, I helped take care of the sick people at a hospital in my town. Most of the time I spend there was with Mr. Green. He never had any visitors and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine though he was in a coma(昏迷). 

  I left for a one-week holiday with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Green was gone. I was afraid to ask any of the nurses where he was.  Several years later, I was a student in high school. One day when I was at a bus station. I noticed a familiar (熟悉的) face. When I realized who it was, I couldn’t stop crying. I asked him if his name was Mr. Green and if he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an unsure look on his face, he replied ‘yes’. I explained how I knew him, and that I had spent many hours taking with him in the hospital. His eyes were also full of tears and he gave me the warmest hug I had ever received.  He began to tell me about his story. He said he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an angel, not a person, who was here with him. Mr. Green believed that it was my voice and my touch that kept him alive.  Although I haven’t seen him since, he fills my heart with joy every day. I know that I made a difference in his life. More important, he has made a big difference in my life.
