Life is filled with challenges. As we get older we come to realize that those challenges are the very things that shape us and make us who we are, it is the same with the challenges that come with friendship.
When we are faced with a challenge, we usually have two choices: we can try to beat if off, or we can decide that the thing presenting the challenges isn’t worth the trouble and call it quits. Although there are certainly times when calling it quits is the right thing to do, in most cases all that is needed is commitment and communication.
When we are committed to something, it means that no matter how painful or how uncomfortable something is, we will always choose to face it and work through instead of running away from it. Communication is making a space for discussion and talking about how you feel as opposed to just saying what the other person did wrong. If you can say to a friend, “I got my feelings hurt.” rather than “You hurt my feelings.” You are going to be able to solve the problem much faster.
In dealing with many challenges that friendship will bring to you, try to see them for what they are: small hurdles you need to jump or get through on your way through life. Nothing is so big that it is impossible to get over, and hurt only serves to make us stronger. It’s all part of growing up. It happens to everyone, and some day you will look back on all of this and say, “Hard as it was, it made me who I am today. And that’s a good thing.”

阅读下面的短文，然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

It was the end of my first day as waitress in a busy New York restaurant．My cap had gone away, and my feet hurt．The loaded plates I carried seemed to be heavier and heavier．Tired and discouraged．I didn’t seem able to do anything right．As I wrote out a check for a family with several children who had changed their ice-cream order a dozen times, I was ready to quit．Then the father smiled at me as he handed me my tip．“Well done”, he said, “you’re looking after us really well.” Suddenly my tiredness disappeared．I smiled back, and later, when the manager asked me how I’d like my first day．I said, “Fine!” Those few words of praise had changed everything．Praise is like sunshine to the human spirit; no flower can grow without it．And yet, most of us are only too ready to apply to others the cold wind of criticism; we are unwilling to give our fellows the warm sunshine of praise．Why when one word of praise can bring such benefit?

     In fact, to give praise costs the giver nothing but a moment’s thought and a moment’s effort but will reward both the giver and the recipient with a happy day．Let’s learn to give credit （赞扬） to people around us.

第二节 读写任务

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

【阅读材料】

  I am a 19-year-old girl named Gina. When I was 17, I gave blood for the first time. It was a little scary because I don’t like needles and I am afraid of looking at my own blood.

   The blood drive was in the high school gym. I determined to help because I had read the poster about how much one pint(品脱：计量单位) of blood could do for someone else.

After signing a form, I lay in the chair. When I waited for the nurse to get to me, one girl I didn’t know well noticed my nervousness and sat next to me, telling me what a good thing we were doing for someone else. It took a long time to get a pint. But somehow, I suddenly felt like an adult when my first blood donation was finished. I had overcome my fear in order to do something selfless that would benefit others.

Now ,I still donate blood. The Red Cross calls and invites me to blood drives, and I always try to go. It’s not scary any more. It’s something you do for others, without getting anything in return.
