I think of him when I complain about trifles, when I am envious of another’s good fortune, and when I don’t have a “good heart”.

Why or why not?Discussion Writing an Opinion ColumnSteve writes a “Friends” column with a newspaper, helping people build new friendships and providing expert advice on how to maintain them. Here is an article taken from his column on “Family Members Make Good Friends”.Family Members Make Good Friends
Brothers, sisters, cousins, even in-laws are all likely to be strong, satisfying friends. After all, you already share one important thing in common: you are related, and that can be a powerful bond.
My older sister is one of my very close friends, but we sure didn’t start out that way. She and I fought like Tom and Jerry over clothes, the phone and whose turn it was to clean the room until the day she got married and moved away. But now that we are adults, we’ve become very close, spending many hours talking on the phone or shopping together.e.g. father-in-law, mother-in-lawWhat does in-law mean? So think about your relatives. Which of them would you like to get a little closer to? What are their hobbies or their favourite sports, and would you like to join in? And don’t forget your older and younger relatives. Good friendships can be found among them as well. After all, family is good for more than just sharing Thanksgiving dinner.Points on how to write an opinion column:
Know your subject well.
Research the background of what you want to write about.
Keep notes of information sources.
Make your writing easy to understand with explanations
and examples.Now suppose you are Steve, write an article for this column on one of the titles listed below.1) How to make new friends and keep the old ones?
When moving to a new city, going away to college, or
finding out you have a “false friend”, you will possibly
make a new friend or two, but how will you keep your old
ones at the same time?“Make new friends but keep the old ones; one is silver
and the other’s gold.”
“A friend is someone who understands your past, believes
in your future, and accepts you just the way you are.”
“Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave,
and impossible to forget.”
“Best friends are the ones who can be the farthest away
but there the fastest when you call.”Related sayings 2) Friendship and loaning money
What do you do when a friend asks to borrow some
money? It doesn’t matter if it is just a small amount of
money. But what if it isn’t?“Lend your money and lose your friend.” A Scottish
proverb.
“A friend in need is the friend in deed”.
“You should never loan out more than you can afford
to lose.”
"If you can't afford to give it away don't lend it!”Related Proverbs/Expressions 3) When friendship hurts
Everybody makes mistakes, even our nearest and dearest
friends. That is a fact that can’t be avoided or changed.
So, what do you do when a friend says or does
something that hurts you?“A true friend laughs at your stories even when they're
not so good, and sympathizes with your troubles even
when they're not so bad”
Was it on purpose? did they even mean to hurt you?
Talk to them about it before you declare the friendship is
over.
Put yourself in his shoes and see it from his side.

Read the text to find out what the woman did.GroupworkThank you, Ma’am She was a large woman. She carried a large purse slung across her shoulder. It was about eleven o’clock at night, dark. She was walking alone when a boy ran up behind her and tried to snatch her purse. The purse strap came off, but he pulled so hard that he lost his balance. He fell on his back on the sidewalk. The large woman turned around, and picked him up by his T-shirt. ∥ The woman said, “Aren’t you ashamed of yourself?”
Held up by his T-shirt, the boy said, “Yes, ma’am.”
The woman said, “What did you do it for?”
The boy said, “It was a joke.”
She said, “You lie!”
“Lady, I’m sorry,” whispered the boy.
“Um-hum! Your face needs washing. Don’t you wash your face at home?”
“No, ma’am,” said the boy. ∥
The large woman started up the street, dragging the frightened boy behind her.Role-play this dialogue.scaredto pull sb/sth along with
effort and difficulty Sweat bathed the boy’s face and he began to struggle. Mrs. Jones continued to drag him up the street. When she got to her door, she dragged the boy inside. She turned on the light and left the door open.
She said, “What is your name?”
“Roger,” answered the boy.
“Roger, go to that wash basin and wash your face,” said the woman. She let him go—at last. Roger looked at the door. He looked at the woman. And then he went to the wash basin.What do these 3 sentences imply? “Are you taking me to prison?” asked the boy, bending over the wash basin.
“With that face, I would not take you anywhere. Have you been home to eat yet?”
“There’s nobody at my house,” said the boy.
“Then we’ll eat,” said the woman. “I believe you are hungry. So you tried to snatch my purse.”
“I want a pair of leather shoes,” said the boy.
“Well, you didn’t have to snatch my purse, ” said Mrs. Jones. “You could have asked me.”
“Ma’am?”
With water dripping from his face, the boy looked at her. There was a long pause. After he dried his face, he turned around, wondering what to do next. The door was open. He could make a dash for it. He could run, run, run!Why was there a long pause? In a corner of the room behind a screen was a small gas stove and a refrigerator. Mrs. Jones went behind the screen. She did not watch the boy to see if he was going to run now, nor did she watch her purse, which she left behind her on the bed. But the boy took care to sit on the far side of the room, away from the purse, where he thought she could easily see him out of the corner of her eye. And he did not want to be mistrusted now.mis + trust + ed She heated some beans and ham, made cocoa, and set the table. The woman did not ask about where he lived, or about his family, or about anything that would embarrass him. Instead, as they ate, she told him about her work in a hotel beauty shop. Then she cut him a half of her ten-cent cake. “Eat some more,” she said.
When they had finished eating, she got up and said, “Now here, take this ten dollars and buy some leather shoes. And next time, don’t snatch my purse, nor anybody else’s — because shoes got by bad ways will burn your feet. From here on, I hope you’ll behave yourself.”
