As a human being, one can hardly do without a friend, for life without friends will be a lonely voyage in the vast dark sea or one in the barren desert. Traly, a friend gives out light and warmth like a lamp. For this reason, I have always felt it a blessing if a friend comes to console me in my sadness, cheer me up in my low spirits, or heartedly share with me my happiness. It is wonderful, too, to feel that someone is standing by me and ready to provide help and encouragement in my pursuit of a noble and glorious cause.

　　 作为一个人类，人不能没有朋友，没有朋友的生活将是一个孤独的航行在海上或一个巨大的黑暗在荒芜的沙漠。该，一个朋友给了光明和温暖如灯。因为这个原因，我一直感到祝福如果一个朋友来安慰我的悲伤，鼓励我在我情绪低落，或意与我分享我的快乐。这是美妙的，太，觉得有人站在我准备在我的崇高而光荣的事业的追求提供帮助和鼓励。

　　 For millions of years, people have heaped beautiful verses and essays upon friendship. Yet, they, too, have mercilessly accused false friendship, for there are always some mean characters who approach you and act as dear friends when you are wealthy or influential, but desert or even betray you the instant you come down in the world or are entrapped by unfortunate things. Therefore, people all attach great importance to the recognition of true friendship. And a faithful friend is considered even more precious than a priceless pearl or a precious stone. The old saying "A friend in need is a friend indeed" has become the teaching and standard for true friends.

　　 千万年来，人们都很美丽的诗歌和散文在友谊。然而，他们，太，已经无情地指责虚伪的友谊，因为总有一些代表人物走近你，作为亲爱的朋友们，当你有钱或有影响力，但是沙漠甚至背叛你即时你落魄的或是被不幸的事情。因此，人们都很重视友谊的识别。一个忠实的朋友是一个无价的珍珠或甚至比宝石更珍贵。俗话说“患难朋友才是真朋友”已成为真正的朋友的教学标准。

　　 Still, it is natural that different people observe different principles in making friends. Some view it important to make friends with whom they may share similar interests or hobbies with. Others are liable to befriend VIPs so as to gain some favors or privileges. And I am of those who think very little of similarity or position or power. So long as a person has a heart of gold, being warm-hearted, selfless, honest, open-minded, but not brutal, cold, shortsighted nor narrow~minded, I am willing to make friends with him or her, give my due support and help, and remain faithful to him or her all my life.

　　 然而，不同的人观察不同的原则，交朋友是很自然的。一些人认为它重要的交朋友与他们可能有相似的兴趣或爱好。别人很容易结交达官贵人从而获得一些好处或特权。我的那些认为相似性或地位或权力很小。一个人只要有一颗金子般的心，是热心的，无私的，诚实的，开放的，但不是残酷的，寒冷的，也不是狭隘的~短视的，我愿意和他交朋友，或她，给我应得的支持和帮助，并忠实于他或她所有我的生活。
