Have you ever heard of the saying, “If you want a friend, be one.”? What does it mean?
There are many different things that you can do to make friends. You may find out what they are if you watch someone make friends.
Here is how one new teacher made friends with the students in her class on the first day of the school. When the bell rang, the teacher smiled at all the students. Then she said, “ Good morning! How nice it is to have all of you in my class this year! I want to know each of you very much. I am sure we will enjoy working together.”
The teacher smiled, used a pleasant voice, and acted in a friendly way. She told the students her name and wrote it on the blackboard. Then she told them something she liked to do and hoped to do with them during the year. The students knew that she liked many of the same things they liked. Everyone felt that she meant what she said. Each of them wanted to know her better and be her friends. Then she let the students tell something about themselves. So they felt that the teacher knew them. Could you make friends as the teacher did?
How do you know and like your classmates? One way is to find out more about them. During the break you can talk to them. You may ask them their names and the names of the schools they went to last year. They want to know about you, too. You may tell them about your interests or your holiday experiences. It is often easy to be friends with people who have the same interests and play the same games. As you talk, the others may be thinking, “ I like to do the same things you do. It should be fun to be friends with you.”
Remember! Just talking together in a friendly way is one good way to make friends.

To me, life without music would not be exciting. I know that this is not true for everybody. Many people get along quite well without going to the concert, or listening to the tape. But music plays an important part in everyone’s life, whether he knows it or not. Try not to think, for example, what films or TV plays would be without music. I’m not sure about it.
Now, we can enjoy music more easily—the kind of music we hear in the concert hall. But if we look at some parts of music more closely, we find them in our everyday life too—the melody of a bird in the woods and so on. So music has meaning for everyone.
It is well said, “ Through music a child enters a world of beauty, express(表达) himself from his heart, feels the joy of doing things alone, learns to take care of others, develops his mind and makes his body strong.”
