二、完形填空
As I grew up, my mother often 1, “Sharing doubles joy and halves sorrow.” This wisdom has stayed with me—friends make 2 appreciate life’s sweetness and support us in hard times. They act as mirrors, helping us 3 more about ourselves. I’ve always seen friends as family 4, for they bring warmth to our lives. A writer once said, “A friend is a gift you give 5.”
To build friendship, listening comes first. Hear 6 your friend shares before judging. Sometimes 7 helps to repeat their words, letting them clarify their thoughts. Patience is key, 8—treat others as you wish to be treated. During challenging times, a friend’s encouragement can turn failure into success. Confidence and support are gifts that 9 change a person’s life.
We should choose our friends carefully, because they can have a great influence on our lives. As someone told me, “The attitudes (态度) of your friends are like the buttons (按钮) on a lift—they will 10 take you up or down.”
