Telling the truth is a very good habit. Here is a story of a man who did lots of bad things, but his promise to tell the truth him.
Once the man came to the prophet (先知)Muhammad (S) and said, ‘Oh prophet of Allah, I have many habits. Which one should I first?’ The prophet said, ‘Give up telling lies first and always speak the truth.’ The man promised to do so and went home.
At night the man planned to go out to steal. Before home, he said to , ‘If tomorrow the prophet asks me I have been, shall I say that I went out stealing? No, I say that. But neither can I lie. If I tell the truth, everyone will call me a .’ So the man not to steal that night.
Next day, when he was about to wine, he thought, ‘ shall I say to the prophet if he asks me what I did during the day? I cannot tell a lie, and if I speak the truth people will me, because a Muslim (伊斯兰教信徒) is not to drink wine.’ So he gave up the idea of drinking wine.
this way, whenever the man thought of doing something bad, he remembered his promise to tell the truth. Step by step, he gave up all his bad habits and became a good Muslim and a very good person.

As the saying goes"Friends are treasure in our lives."I remember when I was growing up my mom always(21) ."Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others".It's tune Friends make(22) enjoy the taste of our success and joys (快乐) and comfort us in our challenging moments.They provide a mirror(镜子)for us(23) more about ourselves.I've always looked at friends as family(24) .They enrich(丰富) our lives.As a famous writer once said."A friend is a present which you give(25) ."
To be a good friend,it's important to be a good listener.Hear(26) your friend says first rather than making conclusions (结论)quickly.
Sometimes(27) is useful to repeat their words back to them.It can help them realize whether their words were what they wanted to say.
Patience(耐心)is an important part of being a good friend,(28) .You know the old golden rule."Care(29) other the way you would like them to care for you."The support of a friend during a(30) time can make the difference between success(31) failure.Encouragement and confidence are the(32) gifts that can change a person's life.
We should choose our friends(33) because they can have a great influence on our lives.As(34) told me,"The attitudes (态度 )of your friends are like the buttons(按钮) on a lift.They will(35) take you up or down."
