Reflections: Friendship and loyalty
①
How many of us
recognize true
loyalty
in a
friend? Loyalty
consists of
(
参考
Unit1
,
TextA
)
a friend, who will
stick by you,
through thick and
thin
. A friend who is always
honest with you and never
betrays
the friendship with
lies is a
loyal
friend. If
you have a
loyal friend, you have
indeed found a true
virtue
in that
friend.
(承上句)
②
The current
trend
on the internet is
befriending
anyone who
requests
to be your
r, this new trend may
lead
to
disasters.
(承上句)
It may be popular and
trendy
to have a network filled with a multitude of
mutual friends. However, one true
loyal
friend may be the only friend you need.
③
A term used on
the popular Facebook site is
B.F.F.
This
acronym
means
best friends
forever
. Are
they really your best friends forever? You might
ask yourself this question,
private
matters
with others on the pages of Facebook, or
perish the
thought
, engage in
gossip about
me with
others?
If the answer to that is ,
know
more than
likely
, they will not be your best
friends forever.
Maybe not, even for
a day.
本部分重点及难点:
1. If the answer to that is ,
more than
likely
(很有可能)
, they will not
be
your best friends forever.

④
I choose to
have a
B.L.F
.,
a
best loyal friend
, for those of you who
may be
challenged by the use of
acronyms during this age of technology and fast-
talking.
⑤
(2)
Loyalty found in a friend
is
akin to making a deposit
in a bank account.
More
often than not
, your
deposits
gain internet
, an
internet in
your
well-being
and
welfare
. A
loyal friend
attracts
another loyal friend. (3)
In
essence,
water does seek its own
level.
(承上、总结的句子)
⑥
(4)
If you were a B.L.F.
way before
Facebook gained
notoriety
, then I'm sure you
understand the premise of loyalty in a
friend.
You should never
exploit
your B.L.F. to
gain more friends or make yourself seem
more important to others. These are not the
traits
of a best loyal
friend.
(承上句)
⑦
A best loyal
friend does not care who is invited to your party.
They will
attend
your
party and
celebrate
you, just in the way a best loyal
friend should do.
⑧
Reconnecting with a best loyal friend
is easier to do on the pages of Facebook.
However,
a virtual
friend
does not
assure
you of his loyalty. My
caution
to you is that
you'd better pay attention to the
smiling faces on the Facebook pages. In the
eighties
we were warned of smiling
faces in a song, which
contained
these lyrics,
a
frown
turned upside down, my
friend.
undisputed truth
for
my
generation
.

If you were a B.L.F.

before
Facebook gained notoriety, then
I'm sure you
understand the priise of
loyalty in a friend.
