  The population problem may be the most serious challenge against human beings now. It is said that the population passed the six billion mark in the year 1999. And now there are about 6.465 billion in the world. There are more than 1.3 billion in China. Last year the USA gave its latest report on the problem of the world's growing population. The world's birth rate is higher than the death rate.

  As the population continues to grow, we are facing more and more problems. Though we have good harvest year after year, millions of people are still in hunger. Lots of buses have been put into use, yet they still remain too crowded. Each year thousands of new buildings are built, but they still can't meet the needs of the people. Much money has been raised to set up one school after another, however, they seem too crowded to hold so many children. Maybe each person will have one half to one square meter of space to live in in the future. There will be hardly enough space for anyone else.

Have you ever heard the saying "If you want a friend, be one"? If you want to make friends with others, you should be friendly to them first.

      Here is how one new teacher made friends with the students in her class on the first day of school. As the bell rang, the teacher smiled (微笑) at each student. Then she said in a quiet voice,"Good morning. How nice it is to have all of you in my class this year. I'd like to know each of you. I am sure we will enjoy working together." Her voice was sweet(甜美的) and her look was friendly, so everyone felt happy.

      She told the students her name and wrote it on the blackboard. Then she told them some of the things she liked to do and she hoped to do with them during the year. Then she said to the boys and girls, "Now you know my name and the things I like and I want to know your names and the things you like."

      Could you make friends by doing the same as this teacher did?
