Our school is in a {#blank#}1{#/blank#} town. You can't find it on the map. In our school there is an {#blank#}2{#/blank#} garden. In the middle of the garden there is a {#blank#}3{#/blank#} apple tree. After class the{#blank#}4{#/blank#} students often have a rest under it. Near the garden there is a library. You can read the books in the reading room, But you must be {#blank#}5{#/blank#} in it and keep the room clean.

Make time for friendships.
Nothing makes closeness fade away(褪色) more than never talking to or seeing each other. If you cherish a person's friendship, make time for him or her, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} it's just a phone call, e-mail or a weekly get-together.
Remember: a true friend doesn't flee when changes happen. Nothing is {#blank#}2{#/blank#} for new parents than to find that their unmarried friends have left them because of the coming of baby. A good friend is one who stays true {#blank#}3{#/blank#} it all in life – marriage, parenthood, new jobs, new homes, and so on.
Make sure you aren't being a burden to a friend.
Friendships will lose if there isn't a {#blank#}4{#/blank#} between the give and the take. Be sensitive to how much your friend can and can't offer you –and don't overstep the mark.
Be a good listener.
It can be the hardest thing in the world to do – simply to listen as he or she {#blank#}5{#/blank#} it all out or is seeking your advice or opinion. To be a better listener, follow this advice:
Keep eye contact. Offer nods and murmurs to show that you understand his or her point of view. Don't finish your {#blank#}6{#/blank#} sentences. While your friend keeps on talking, you should gently {#blank#}7{#/blank#} yourself to focus.
Be in your friend's corner if he or she's not there to defend him or herself.
If you're at a gathering at {#blank#}8{#/blank#} someone says something bad about your friend, stop him or her {#blank#}9{#/blank#} . Say, "Mary is my friend, and it makes me feel bad to hear you talk this way." Sooner or later, news of your loyalty (忠诚) will {#blank#}10{#/blank#} back to your pal, and it will deepen your friendship.
