Most of us want to make more friends. The following steps will help you.
Be friendly. You need to be friendly so that people feel good when they stay with you. You should often use body language to make them know that you are friendly. Often smile and laugh, and make eye contact(交流).
Be a good listener. Listen carefully to what people say, remember important things about them (their names, their likes and dislikes), ask questions about their interests, and just take time to learn more about them.
The steps above are great for making new friends, but how about making lifelong(一生的) friends?
Be trustworthy(可信赖的). The key to being a good friend is to keep secrets. If other people ask you to keep a secret, you shouldn’t tell anyone about it. When you say you’ll do something, please do it.
Be there. If a friend needs help, or if he just needs a shoulder to cry on, be there.
Be true to yourself. You should never do anything that you think is wrong. Keep true to yourself.

A few years ago, I went to China with my parents. The five-day trip left me with a deep impression.
As the capital of China, Beijing is a very beautiful city with fresh air and clean streets which make the travelers feel very pleased. To my surprise, many people there were learning English. Later I was told that they did so because Beijing would hold the 29th Olympic Games and they wanted most foreigners to understand them. They strictly kept the traffic rules. When there was a red light, no one was seen crossing the street.
Of all the places I visited, I liked the Summer Palace best. To our surprise, although it was winter when we were there, we still saw green trees and many fresh flowers. The whole park was very beautiful.
We visited a very modern football field. We were told the buildings where the Olympic Games would be held were even better than that. I also enjoyed skiing in Xiangshan. Skiing is an interesting and exciting sport liked by many people.
In my eyes, China is a nice place and Chinese people are very kind. In Beijing Station, there were so many people, and most of them were going home to spend the Spring Festival—the most important Chinese festival, with their families. Passengers helped each other carry luggage（行李）, and they were very kind to foreigners. We were given a card by the hotel we stayed at, on which was the address of the hotel. With the card we never got lost in the city.
The five days passed quickly, but the trip left me a lot of sweet memories.

What do you think the future will be like? Here are some answers from some students.
Mary: If we don’t take good care of the earth now, our children and grandchildren will be born into a world with much pollution(污染). There will be fewer trees and more buildings, because there will be more people.
