  If you love being close to nature,protecting the environment or improving the lives of people then ecotourism is an excellent way to see new and exciting places.(34)B

8.How to Make Friends
Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends.Good friendship
has many benefits.It offers companionship and promotes good health.(26)EBut for many of us the
process is difficult and requires courage.Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep
friends.
1.Associate with others.
The first step to making friends is associating with other people.You can go to public places to meet
new people.Besides,you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such
places.
2.Start a conversation.
Starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends.(27)CYou can always
start the conversation.Being able to make small talk is a very useful skill in relating with other people.
3.(28)BChoosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship,because these interests
would always bring you and your friend together.
4.Let it grow.
It is a good thing to stay in touch.However,try not to press your new friend with calls,messages or
visits as this would likely wear him or her out(使筋疲力尽)and finally you may lose your friend.(29)G
The best friendships are the ones that grow naturally.
5.Enjoy your friendship.
The best way to enjoy your friendship is to allow your friends to be themselves.(30)DTry not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be.

A.Be cheerful.
B.Do things together.
C.Do not wait to be spoken to.  
D.Try not to find fault ith your friends.
E.Making new friends comes easy for some people.
