I think a good friend should be honest (诚实的). That's more important than any other thing. And it is where a real friendship starts. If a person isn't honest, he may lose his friends' trust. |

Jerry |
I think a good friend has to be generous (慷慨的). Here being generous doesn't mean he has to give his friends money or clothes. It means he should share his ideas and feelings with his friends. In fact, his friends can know him better in this way. |

In my opinion, a good friend should understand his friends. When there's something wrong between him and his friends, he must put himself in his friends' place and think more of his friends. |
Being outgoing is good for your life. Those people who are more outgoing like to meet lots of people and have more fun in life. In fact, being outgoing is not so hard as you think. Even shy people can be outgoing.
You can start to become outgoing with your best friends or a group of friends. But the real challenge comes when you meet strangers or new friends. Smile more and usually they will reply to your smile. In this way, you may have some talks.
Start a talk. Just a simple "Hello." or "How is it going?" is a good start. If you want to make interesting I talks, you can read news in newspapers and prepare your views, or surf the Internet for new information and then keep that in mind.
The easiest way to become more outgoing is to go out. This is also the most important step. Go to a park, beach, club, party or any other place that you think can be fun, and you may make new friends there.
Making new friends can be difficult, especially if you are a child in a new neighborhood. It may seem like everyone else has a friend to sit with or to talk to. Don't worry; if you're a nice person, you can make friends too.
Step 1. Decide what kind of people you want to play with. Choose (选择) wisely, because you'll probably become like them. Pick children that are nice to other people.
Step 2. Smile and say something nice to the person you want to be your friend. If you like a person's shoes or think a girl is good at basketball, just say so. Everyone likes compliments.
Step 3. Join clubs and teams. If you like sports, try out for some. Put yourself in situations where you are around many children that enjoy the same activities as you. It's easier to develop(发展) friendships when you have the same hobbies.
Step 4. Ask questions whenever it's appropriate. People love to talk about themselves. Be careful not to ask too personal questions or ask someone too many questions. But asking one or two questions shows you're interested in him or her.
Everyone has friends. Please read the following passages (段落). You can know more about friends.
Friends are people you know well and like. They can be different kinds of people. Some of them may be outgoing. Some may be quiet. But they're all the people you like to spend time with.

There is a new student in my class this term. His name is Jack. Jack is tall and has short curly hair. And he sits next to me. At first he didn't talk to anyone. He always played basketball alone after class. Most of us thought he was not an outgoing boy.
A month later, he started to talk with others. And sometimes he told jokes to make us laugh. I knew that he played basketball well. So I asked him to teach me. With his help, I got much better at basketball. And I found he was really different from me. He is more outgoing and funnier than me, but he isn't as hard-working as me. So I always get better grades. We both love music and we often share our CDs. Now we are in the school basketball club and we go there together twice a week.
