Reading Assignment: pp.130-184

 

Writing Assignment: Please describe what you think is the ideal i.e. perfect friend.  Make your description detailed. Do you think the perfect friend is someone who laughs a lot and is seldom serious? Or do you think the ideal friend is someone  who likes to laugh but also has a serious side? Do you care if the person is good at sports or video games?

 

Make your description as detailed as possible, using adjectives that make the reader see what you see. Make careful use of transitions to move from one sentence to the next. And check the endings of all nouns to make sure that they are grammatically correct. In English the noun ending is likely to change if you are talking about one person or more than one. I know that's hard because in Chinese you don't do that. So make it a point to check every noun ending.

    I think a ideal i.e. perfect friend should be learned and polite and reliable.

    At first, he or she should be reliable and keep faith with other his or her friends. So when he friends needs his help, he can do his best on help them but not hit him when he is down.

    Then, he should be polite and noble. If he is noble and polite, he can make his friends become noble and polite. If he is vulgar, his friends maybe will become vulgar, too.

    At last, he should be learned and wise. So he ca teach his friend when they don not know what is this thing what is that thing and he can show the way to succeed to his friend when they are hesitating.

    That is what I think an Ideal i.e. perfect friend should be. What do you think?

HI Mark, I totally agree  with you on all three characteristics.

 

You made nice use of transitions too.  

 

I'm assuming that your final question isn't rhetorical--that's a question the writer poses without expecting an answer--so I'd say, I agree with you completely but with one key addition: My ideal friend has to be somebody who likes to laugh and who can make me laugh.

 

Nice work!

Hello,Laraine

   I think the ideal i.e. perfect friend is a friend that give you happy, have a kind heart and you and he/she can believe each other.

   At first, he/she should give you happy. A friend is a people can have fun with you and when you play with he/she you feel good and happy.If I have lots of friends but they never give me fun never play with me never make we all laugh, I will feel so loneliness. I will think they forget me.

   The second, he/she should have a kind heart. My perfect friend will never be a bad bully,because a bully will only bullies weak people. Bully doesn't have a kind heart. What they do makes me feel so terrible. A perfect friend should help other people.

   At last, he/she and me should believe each other and we will not think this friendship is a gamble.
