Sometimes, even the best friends have fights. They disagree with each other and begin to argue. Sometimes, they even stop talking to each other for a long time.
What can we do for them? Find another good friend who knows both of them very well and ask him or her to do something for them. Here are some useful ways：

☆A(yù)sk questions to make sure that you understand them.
☆Repeat their ideas so that you can understand them.
☆Never put anyone down. Saying things like “You are stupid(愚蠢的).” may make communication difficult.
☆Try to find a good solution that makes the two friends happy. Never tell who is right and who is wrong. Instead. help them to find their own “win-win” solution. A “win—win” solution makes each of them to feel good. In this way, they will be good friends again.

Sixteen years ago a boy gave me an important gift. It was a smile.
It was the early autumn of my first year at a middle school，and my old school was far away. As a result，no one knew who I was. I was very lonely，and afraid to speak to anyone.
Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing，I felt my heart break. I couldn't talk with anyone about my problems.
Then one day，when my classmates were talking happily with their friends，I was sitting at my desk unhappily as usual. At that moment，a boy entered the classroom. I didn't know who he was. He passed by me and then turned back. He looked at me，with a smile.
Suddenly，I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy and warm. That smile changed my life. I started to talk with other students and made friends. Day by day，I became closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.
One day I asked him why he had smiled，but he couldn't remember doing so！
It doesn't matter because all the dark days have gone. I believe that the world is what you think it is. If you think it is lonely，you might always be alone. So smile at the world and it will smile back.

To Max
Today we had to let you go,
It broke our hearts in two,
We had to leave you at that place,
Alone and feeling blue,
The only thing that we could do,
Was to drive back home and cry,
For we just couldn’t keep you,
No matter (無(wú)論) how we tried,
You’ll never be forgotten,
As long as we two live,
You gave us all the love,
A little dog could give,
Looking at your small hutch,
We know you are not with us,
From this moment on,
We begin to miss you much,
We’ll think about you often,
And wanna know where you are,
And in our hearts we’ll hear your bell,
Tinkling from afar (遠(yuǎn)處).

Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (彈跳) back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?
Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (緊緊地); the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure (珍寶) you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.
【小題1】The passage tells us not to _________ because everyone is special.

A．be afraid of difficultiesB．be afraid to learn

A．Nothing is possibleB．If we don’t give up, there is always hope
C．You should learn to give upD．Although you try, nothing will change.
【小題3】Why can’t we use time carelessly? ___________
A．Because time is too expensive.B．Because time never returns.

【小題4】 If you run through life so fast, you will ____________.
A．lose your own treasure that you can always carry easily
B．lose love by holding it too tightly
