译林牛津版英语八年级上册 Unit 1 Friends单元测试（二）

      Years ago, if a teenager(青少年) had some problems in his life, he might write them in his diary. Now a teenager with the same problems might get on the Internet and write in his blog(博客). In many ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same. So, what makes a blog different from a diary?

      The biggest difference is that a blog is much more public(公开的) than a diary. Usually, a teenager likes hiding his diary book and treats it as one full of secrets. Both diaries and blogs tell what happened to the writer that day.

      A blog has both good and bad points. The biggest problem is that anyone can read what you write in your blog. If you are not pleased with a friend during school and write something bad about him or her on the Internet, that friend may read your blog and get angry. So we have to be careful of what we write.

       A blog has good points, of course. People choose to write in blogs: they know that their friends will read what they write. If you are feeling sad one day and write in your diary, no one will know about it. If you write the same words in your blog, your friends may quickly write back to comfort(安慰) you or give their help. Blogs help people stay in close contact(联系) and let them know what their friends are doing.

    There is nobody in the world the same as you; you are unique(独特唯一的)! Everybody is 1 from anybody else. That is good 2  it makes the world an interesting place. 

    There are people taller 3 you, and shorter than you. Maybe your hair is the same color 4 your friend's hair, but maybe it is longer than 5. Another difference is your hair may be straight, hers may be curly.

    I am sure you have some friends who are 6 than you. And you also have some friends, they are as 7 at sports as you. But there are also people around you who are not good at some things. 8 does your best friend look like? Do you both 9 to finish your homework at school? Do you both want to wear the same clothes every day? I think 10 some ways you are the same, but in many other ways you are different. So say loudly to the world, “I am who I am -- I'm unique!”

      Everyone needs friends. Friends bring us happiness and hope in our lives. But the ability to make friends changes from person to person. To some people, making friends is easy, and to others it's very difficult.

      Making friends is a skill, and the first thing is to know how to get on with others.

      If you have trouble in making friends, maybe I can tell you how to do it.

      ★Realize your own good points. You have skills and talents(才能) that others will like.

      ★ Believe that you are a good person and have something nice to share with others.

      ★ Be humourous. Learn to laugh at yourself and your weakness. Remember to smile at others.

★ Respect(尊敬) others. Everyone has his own idea. Learn how to listen to others' ideas without trying to make them accept(接受) yours.
