《2025年人教金学典同步解析与测评八年级英语上册人教版云南专版》

Divide(划分) the class into two groups. One group supports the view that friends should be similar, and the other group supports the view that friends should be different. Then let them have a debate(辩论).

答案： 支持朋友应相似的观点:Friends who are similar can have more common topics and interests. They can understand each other more easily and have a better relationship. For example, if they both like painting, they can paint together, discuss painting skills, and enjoy creating art together.
支持朋友应不同的观点:Friends with differences can bring new experiences. They can learn from each other and grow. For example, if one is good at maths and his friend is good at literature, they can help each other and open new worlds for each other. Also, when one has a problem, his friend may have a different way to solve it.
