Sample：

I first met Stephen in the primary school. We had to sit next to each other in the same two-person desk for the whole first year. We were both seven. When we walked home after school, we found that we lived in the same street. We both had dogs, and so we enjoyed taking them for walks together—the dogs seemed to enjoy it, too. We went to the park with the dogs almost every night. Sometimes we played football with other friends, or sometime we went fishing in the lake. There are many things we enjoyed doing. The friendship continued when we both moved to the same junior high school, but in the last two years of senior high we started to grow apart, as Stephen wanted to study sciences and I wanted to do English. We were in different classes, made different friends, and although we often saw each other, and sometimes met outside school, we were never as close as we had been for those ten years. Then when we went away to university, we lost touch altogether, and I have never heard from him since.

Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, especially their parents, don't know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice.

It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when hey are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in children's growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members. However, parents often try to choose friends for their children. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of "choice" is an interesting one. 2 Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don't give friendship back. That is why some friendship doesn't last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat 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 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 one another to speak and act honestly. Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friend grow. You don't have to give your lunch money or your clothes, of course. Instead you have to learn how to share things you enjoy, such as your bobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feeling. These can be very valuable 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 friend's place so you can understand the problem better. No two friends are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practise honestly, generously and understandingly.
