More and more people are increasingly turning towards their friends for support and sharing rather than just communicating with their relatives. We may have a very unclear understa
27、nding of what makes a friend but we all want to have many good friends around us. There are certain steps that can win you friends or at least help you get close to those whom you want to make friends with.The first step to make friends with someone is to make him like you. If they dont like you in
28、the first place, it is unlikely that theyll be eager to become your friends. To let someone know that you are interested in him, simple gestures like a little smile and calling him by his name can help. To make the other person feel important, you need to be a good listener and encourage the other p
29、erson to talk. Give your honest and real opinions but do not make fun of him or her. The second step is to develop a full consideration between each other. You need to share his or her opinions. So, it is necessary for you to develop a habit of seeing things from the other persons point of view. To
30、become a best friend, you must show concern and consideration for your friends desires and opinions. The third and final step is to show your support and encouragement towards your friend. Moreover, you also need to be very clear about your expectations from your friend. If what you expect from the

34、 make.BChinas government has been trying all measures to reduce pollution in the past few years. Now people can enjoy a fresh environment everywhere.

40、ur dioxide in the airB. it is so cold that they may have caught a coldC. they are starting to cough or have a feverD. they must be infected with permanent lung diseaseCFor centuries, the bodys blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to
41、 be cold-blooded killers. For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someones life as nothing.Cold can affect other parts of the body. The expression “get cold feet” has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expre
42、ssion means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agree to be president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being pres
43、ident when you understand the situation.The expression “give someone the cold shoulder” probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you. Or, to someon
44、e who has lied about you to others.A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted. Now a cold-hearted person is someone wh
45、o has no sympathy. Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their lovers. Out in the cold means not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise-he was le
