Friendship
Friendship is the relationship between persons who can help each other in need and who have much in common. Friendship can make people happy and successful. In my opinion, friendship is one of the most precious things we have for several reasons. Firstly, we can lead a happy life if we have some friends to share feelings, for joy that is shared will be doubled and sorrow shared will be reduced.
Secondly, the company of friends can help us win success. It is well known that the friendship between Karl Marx and Engels largely contributed to their success. Besides great figures, common people also benefit a great deal from their friendships. For example, in the second year of my college, we were required to take the yearly test for English Majors (Band Four). It is a difficult national examination. While I was preparing for it, I felt very worried. But my friends and I helped and encouraged each other. As a result, we all passed the test with good scores.
Moreover, friendship has influence on our personalities. To win friendship we should have a pleasant manner. And to keep the friendship that we have obtained, we ought to be self-disciplined and learn to be considerate. If everybody has friends and knows how to keep friendship, personalities of people will be improved and society will be in harmony.
So we can say that friendship can do good not only to individuals but also to society. A society that is full of friendship will be full of love and hope.

One day, Lincoln went to a party. At the gathering, Douglas made repeated remarks about Lincoln’s low status(地位)in life, saying that he had first met Lincoln when he was a shop assistant in a general store, He finally ended his remarks by
saying ,"And Mr. Lincoln was a very good lawyer, too.”
People burst out laughing but they quietened down when Mr. Lincoln said quietly,"Gentleman, what Mr. Douglas has said is true enough. I did keep a store, and I did sell cotton, candles and sweets, and sometimes whisky. But I remember that Mr. Douglas was one of my best customers. Many a time did I stand on one side of the counter and sell whisky to Mr. Douglas on the other side, but the difference between us now is I have left my side of the counter(柜台), but Douglas still sticks to(坚持)his."

Where there is life, there is hope
When I was in the 8th grade in Ohio, a girl named Helen in my class had a terrible accident. As she was running to the bus in order not to miss it, she slipped on ice and fell under the rear(后部的)wheels of the bus. She survived the accident but was paralyzed(瘫
痪)from the waist down. I went to see her, in my 13-year-old mind thinki ng she wouldn’t live normally from then on.
Over the years, I moved and didn’t think much about Helen after that. Three years ago, in Florida, my oldest son was hit by a car while riding his bike, causing a terrible brain injury. While I was looking afte r my son, a lady who said she was the hospital’s social worker called. It was a particularly trying day. I burst into tears for no reasons and rang off.
A short time later, a beautiful woman, in a wheel-chair(轮椅), rolled into my son’s room with a box of tissues. After 16 years, I still recognized Helen. She smiled, handed me the tissues and hugged me. I told her who I was, and after we both got through the shock of that, she began to tell me about her life since we last saw each other. She married, had children and got her degree so that she could smooth the path for those less fortunate than her. She told me that if there was anything she could give me, it would be hope. Looking at this wonderful, giving person, I felt small. But I also felt the first hope I had since learning that my son was hurt. From this person that I thought would have no quality of life, I learned that where there is life, there is hope. My son miraculously recovered and we moved back north, but I owe Helen a debt that I can never repay.

Napoleon like to read newspapers. “I must read the news,”he said. “I have to know more about the world.”
Napoleon read both English and German newspapers. He read the papers when he was having breakfast. But he seldom picked up a French paper.
One day an editor of a French newspaper came to palace. He presented a well-printed newspaper to Napoleon.
“Your Majesty,” said the editor,"please have a look at our paper and see if there is anything wrong."
Napoleon was not interested. He put the beautiful newspaper on the table and said,
“No, I do not read French newspaper. Take it away.”
The editor was surprised.
“But, but why? ” he asked in a very cautious way.
“Because everything in French newspapers is written accordin g to(按照)my will. 意愿)

Never Too Late to Become What You Want to Be
The first day of school our professor introduced a little old lady to us. “Why are you in college at such a young age?” I asked later. She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of children, and then retire and travel.”
“No seriously,” I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me.
We became instant friends. Every day for the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I wa s always listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to make a speech to our football team. I’ll never forget what she taught us. As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her note card on the floor. A little embarrassed she simply said, “I’m sorry. This whiskey is killing me! I’ll never get my speech back in order so let me just tell you what I know.” As we laughed she cleared her throat and began: “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and don’t even know it! There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in
bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will turn twenty years old. Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t take any ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change. Have no regrets. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.”
At the year’s end Rose finished the college degree. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral to honor the wonderful woman who taught by example that it’s never too late.

Two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped(掴耳光)the other one in the face. The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: “TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE.”

After the friend recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone “TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SA VED MY LIFE.”
The fr iend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, “After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand, and now, you write on a stone, why?”
The other friend replied, “When someone hurts us, we should write it down in sand where

He recognizes(认出)that the bowl is extremely ancient(古老的)and very valuable, so he walks slowly into the shop and offers to buy the cat for two dollars.
Th e shop owner with an interesting moustache listening to a cassette recorder, replies, “ I’m sorry, but the cat isn’t for sale.”

二: 句型积累
1. 曾经一度,每天直到11点钟李明才上床睡觉,目的是为了弥补落下的功课。
At one time, it was not until 11o’clock that Li Ming went to bed in order to make up for the lost lessons.
变通句式: At one time, not until 11o’clock did Li Ming go to bed in order to make up for the lost lessons.
这是两个不同的句式,第一句为强调句,而第二句为倒装句,倒装的依据为否定词放在了句子开头。
强调句知识理解与记忆:
为了强调句子的某一成份(常是主语、宾语或状语),常用强调结构。
强调句型的构成是“It is (was) +被强调的部分+that (who)+其他成分”。
