Even at school there had been an unhealthy competition between George and Richard.
“I’ll be the first millionaire (百万富翁) in Coleford!” Richard used to say.
“And you’ll be sorry that you kn o w me,” George would reply, “because I’ll surely be the best lawyer in our town!”
After graduation, George never became a lawyer and Richard was anybody but a millionaire. Instead, both of them opened bookshops. As it was hard to make much money from books then, the competition between them became worse. Finally, Richard closed down his, dreaming of making money elsewhere.
Now, with only one bookshop in the town, business was better for George. But sometimes he sat in his small old kitchen and looked out of the dirty window, thinking about Richard. Perhaps he missed him?
George was very interested in old books, and he had recently found a collector in Australia who was selling a rare first edition (版). Immediately he bought one. When the mail arrived, the book was perfectly wrapped (包裹) in a newspaper and George was quite delighted. But while he was having lunch, he noticed a photo in the newspaper in which the book had been wrapped. George was astonished —the smiling face was older than he remembered but no mistake. It was him! Then George started reading: “Bookends Company has bought ten bookstores f rom its competitors. The company, owned by millionaire Richard Pike, is now the largest bookseller in this country.”

Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friends hip back. That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous (慷慨); be understanding.
Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you h aven’t been honest you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always expect one another to speak and act honestly.
Generosity means sharing and makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Instead, you have to learn how to share your ideas and feelings.
