What kind of friends do you have? Are they different from you or similar to you? Different people have different ideas. The following is what four of my classmates say about themselves.
My name is Susan. I am outgoing. I like to have friends who are similar to me. Both my best friend Linda and I like traveling. We went to Italy with our families last summer. We stayed there for two weeks. Next year we want to go to Paris. |
My name is Mary. I like to have friends who are different from me. My best friend Betty is shorter and more outgoing than me. I am quiet and I like reading very much, Betty likes sports and she plays ping pong very well. |
I'm Peter. I like to have friends who are like me. It can be very helpful. I'm a little quiet and my good friend Rick is quiet, too. Sometimes I don't know what to do with my problems and he can tell me what I should do, because he understands me better than people who are different from me. |
I'm Bill, I have both kinds of friends. Different kinds of friends are important. They make my life more interesting. |
