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 went home after school, we found that we lived in the same street. We both had dogs, 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 sometimes we went fishing in the lake. There are many things we enjoyed doing. The friendship continued until 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.bosom friends, classmate, roommate,

friendship:
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 they 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. 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. 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
hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share
your ideas and feelings. These can
be very valuable to a friend. You
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 practice
honestly, generously and
understandingly.Everyday English
