原文及翻译
I used to be very shy. I would not go up to someone that I did not know and say hello. I was afraid that people would not want to talk to me. I have changed. I have become less shy. I have learned that making friends is easy to do. All you have to do is say hello. Most people will respond to a smile and a friendly hello. People will begin to talk to you about little things in their lives. You will soon realize that you have something in common with that person.
我以前很害羞。我不会走到不认识的人面前打招呼。我担心人们不想和我说话。我已经改变了。我不再那么害羞了。我学会了交朋友很容易。你只需要打招呼。大多数人都会对微笑和友好的问候做出回应。人们会开始和你谈论他们生活中的琐事。你很快就会意识到你和那个人有共同之处。
Whenever I start talking to a new person, I find that there is some interest that we share. Maybe we know some of the same people or we went to the same school. Often we find that we like the same music or the same movies. It is easy to have a conversation with someone once you find a topic that you can both relate to.
每当我开始和一个新朋友交谈时，我都会发现我们有一些共同的兴趣。也许我们认识一些相同的人，或者我们上的是同一所学校。我们经常发现我们喜欢相同的音乐或相同的电影。一旦你找到一个你们都能理解的话题，就很容易和别人交谈。
The most important part in making friends is to listen to what the other person says. If you take an interest in them, they are sure to take an interest in you. I have learned many things from meeting people. I have had many fascinating conversations, and I have made a lot of good friends.
交朋友最重要的部分是倾听对方说的话。如果你对他们感兴趣，他们肯定会对你感兴趣。我从与人交往中学到了很多东西。我有过许多有趣的谈话，也交了很多好朋友。
One day a girl came up to me and said she was lost. She couldn't find her way to her English class. I said that I was going to that class too. I told her to come with me. We began talking and we became very good friends. That was a few years ago. She is still one of my best friends. Just think, if she hadn't been lost, we might never have become friends.
有一天，一个女孩走到我面前，说她迷路了。她找不到去英语课的路。我说我也要去上那堂课。我叫她跟我去。我们开始聊天，成为了非常好的朋友。那是几年前的事了。她仍然是我最好的朋友之一。想想看，如果她没有迷路，我们可能永远不会成为朋友。
