Read the passage and choose the correct answers
There are many proverbs about friends and friendship, such as “True friendship is like sound health; the value of its seldom know until it is lost”, and “A real friend is someone who walks in when the rest of the world walks out”. When you read these quotes, stop and think about your friendship. Do you and your friends act in a caring way towards one another, do you respect them and do they respect you, but most of all do you value the relationship and love spending time together? Friendship is more than just hanging out together and gossiping about other people. True friendship is when two people have mutual respect for one another, and really care about the each other’s feelings and dreams. You need to be able to be honest with your friends. If there is ever a time when you feel that you cannot tell them the truth, for fear that they will be mad or will not understand, then they are not true friends. Friends share with each other important things that they would not share with others. Friends also care about each other, stick up for one another and enjoy spending time together.
