April 26 is a special day for friends. It is "Hug (拥抱) a Friend Day". Can you guess how people celebrate it? That's right. Friends hug one another, in a warm and friendly way!

Why do we need this day? Giving a hug can show our love, support or even just mean "hello" or "goodbye". It can make a person feel happier and warmer, or even bring him better health by taking stress (压力) away. And a hug doesn't cost anything. So why not hug your friends?

However, it can also get you in trouble. Ryan Blackmon, a middle school student in North Carolina, US, was fighting with another student, and a teacher pulled them apart (拉开) . When she finished, Ryan said "thank you" and gave her a hug. This did not make the teacher feel happy. Instead, she angrily took Ryan's arm and took him to an office. Then school officials said Ryan must say sorry to the teacher.

Why did she get so angry over a hug? First of all, Ryan is a boy and his teacher is a woman. In that situation (状况) , she might think Ryan's hug showed the wrong kind of love. Also, a student hugging a teacher shows that they are friends, on an equal (平等的) level. That might have hurt her feeling of authority (权威) .

So be careful who you hug, and how you hug them! The best way is just to ask first, or to say, "Give me a hug!" From the person's reaction, you'll decide to hug or not to hug.
