1 Friendship is one of the greatest pleasures that people can enjoy． It is very difficult to find a better definition of friendship． A true friend does indeed find pleasure in our joy and share sorrow in our grief． In time of trial， he or she is always at our side to give us his or her help and comfort．

Knowing how valuable friendship is， we should be very careful in our choice of a friend． We must choose someone who has a good character， whose activities are good and who shows kindness of heart． We should avoid those shallow people who are easily changed by adversities or misfortune．

A true friend can always be trusted， loved and respected． If you tell a friend your secrets， he or she won’t tell anyone else． Friends share each other’s joys and sorrows． They help each other when they are in trouble， and cheer each other up when they are sad． The most important thing is that a friend always understands you． In conclusion， when you have made a good friend， don’t forget him or her．

2Friendship
Every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. My friends will listen to me when I want to speak, will wipe my eyes when I cry, will take care of me when I am sick, and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.
As students, we could share more time with our friends. The friendship in our young hearts is pure, fresh and simple. I often feel very lucky to have a lot of good friends. Especially when I had Justin as one of my best friends. Justin was my English teacher from the USA. I met him in 1996 when I was a student who could only speak very little English. Justin was a vivid young man with a bright smile on his face, and he always had his special way to make the class active and attractive. He taught us English by telling stories, playing games, singing songs, and even dancing. I could still remember very clearly that one afternoon when we fin-ished our class, we went to some other classes to sing songs for them, just like what people do in the states on Christmas Eve. It was so interesting and unforgettable. Justin was an excellent teacher, because he taught us not only how to study English well, but also the way to find out the beauty of the world and the way to be angels to others' lives. I know there was friendship and pure love in our hearts. Facing this valuable emotion neither nationality nor age was important, the real importance lay in faith, under-standing, and care. Justin is the best friend I have ever had, and I know I will cherish those days of staying together with him as the best part of my memory.
Friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives. It is actually like a bottle of wine, the longer it is kept, the sweeter it will be. It is also like a cup of tea. When we are thirsty, it will be our best choice, but when we have enough time to enjoy ourselves, it is also the most fragrant drink.
