Module 3 Interpersonal Relationships Friendship Section ⅠIntroduction & Reading-Pre-readingYour best friend is possibly the most important person in your life. But sometimes friendship's road is not always smooth, or it's a totally dead end. What do you do when this happens?Scenario (情景) 1: Drifting ApartYou've found that your friend no longer wants to jog with you. She'd rather hit the chat rooms, or she's become crazy about hanging with her new interest.It's an unpleasant thing when old friends start having less in common. But it might still be worth trying to get into your friend's new interest, trying something new on your own, or meeting new folks who like doing the things you enjoy. Another thing to try is talking to your friend about it —i n a non­this­is­your­fault way. The goal is telling how you feel, not “winning”．Scenario 2: Fighting“Yes, he is.” “No, he isn't.” The argument could continue forever.No matter how sure you are that you're right, friendship is based on RESPECT. Since you and your friend aren't clones, you will disagree sometimes!Is it worth fighting over? If it is trivial (琐碎的), why not give it up? Agree to disagree and get on well with life. Even if you'll never agree, try to see theother person's viewpoint. At least honor his right to have his own opinion. Never get physical. Violence can make a small problem into a disaster.Scenario 3: End of the RoadIs the friendship over? If you are not the one ending it, it feels as if a knife cuts your heart into pieces. But the thing is that you can't force someone to be your friend. Give yourself time. But don't freeze in a looking­back, holding pattern. Be open to new friendships. You never know when the “BFF(best friend forever)” will come along.Section_ⅠIntroduction_&_Reading_—_Pre­reading[原文呈现][读文清障]Roy's StoryI remember the first time I met Roy①. He was standing in the centre of a group of boys, and he was telling a joke②. When he reached the final line, everyone burst out③laughing. Roy laughed too, a loud happy laugh. “Popular boy，” I thought to myself④. My name is Daniel. I was the new boy in the class. Our family was from the north of England, but my father had been offered a better job in London, and our whole family had moved there. I was twelve and, having lost all my old friends⑤， I felt shy and lonely at my new school.There were 33 students in my new class, and most people weren't very interested in a shy new boy.

罗伊的故事[第1～2段译文]我还记得第一次见到罗伊的情景。

他站在一群男孩的中间，正说着笑话。

他说到最后一句的时候，大家都哄堂大笑起来。

罗伊也笑了，是那种开心的大笑。

我当时心里想：“他是个受欢迎的男孩。

”我叫丹尼尔，是班里的新学生。

因为父亲在伦敦找了份更好的工作，我们全家就从英格兰北部搬到了那里。

当时我12岁，因为失去了我所有的老朋友，在这所新学校里我感到害羞和孤独。

在我的新班级里有33名学生。

他们大都对(我这样)一个害羞的新来的男孩不太感兴趣。

只有少数几个人对我友善，而罗伊则是其中的一个。

他常邀请我加入他的特殊的小组，因此，我开始认识其他人，罗伊和我成了好朋友。

我们互相信任，因此，我们可以谈论一些对我们重要的个人问题。
