Jeff Green is quieter than most kids. He likes reading and studies harder in class. He’s shy so it’s not easy for him to make friends. He thinks friends are like books — you don’t need a lot of them as long as they’re good. His best friend Yuan Li is quiet, too. They enjoy studying together.
Introduce Jeff Green, Huang Lei and Mary Smith to your classmates.
Huang Lei is quite different from his best friend, Larry. Larry is taller and more outgoing than him. Larry is much less hard-working than Huang Lei. They both like sports, but Larry plays tennis better, so he always wins. Larry often says, “My best friend helps to bring out the best in me.”
Mary Smith’s favorite saying is, “A true friend reaches for your hand and touches your heart.” Her best friend Carol is really kind and very funny. In fact, she’s funnier than anyone she knows. Mary broke her arm last year but Carol made her laugh and feel better. They can talk about and share everything.
A good friend is like a mirror.

Friends are like books — you don’t need a lot of them as long as they’re good.
