Reflections: Friendship and loyalty

①How many of us recognize true loyalty in a friend? Loyalty consists of（参考Unit1，TextA）a friend, who will stick by you, through thick and thin. A friend who is always honest with you and never betrays the friendship with lies is a loyal friend. If you have a loyal friend, you have indeed found a true virtue in that friend.（承上句）

②The current trend on the internet is befriending anyone who requests to be your friend. However, this new trend may lead to disasters.（承上句）It may be popular and trendy to have a network filled with a multitude of mutual friends. However, one true loyal friend may be the only friend you need.

③A term used on the popular Facebook site is B.F.F. This acronym means best friends forever. Are they really your best friends forever? You might ask yourself this question, "Will they share my private matters with others on the pages of Facebook, or perish the thought, engage in gossip about me with others?" (1)If the answer to that is , "I don't know", more than likely, they will not be your best friends forever. Maybe not, even for a day.

本部分重点及难点：

1. If the answer to that is , "I don't know", more than likely（很有可能）, they will not be your best friends forever.

more than likely: very likely

more than happy: very happy

more than pleased: very pleased
