Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. We can share 1.s       with our friends and turn to them for help when we are in trouble. In a word, it is nice to have a friend to 2.t      , laugh and do things with. Certainly, sometimes we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel 3.l       if we never had a friend.

To make 4.f      , you must be friendly. A cheerful person smiles. A smile always makes the others like you. Smile at someone and you are sure to get a smile5.b       from him.

Try to remember names. It6.m       your new friends feel happy when you call them by their names, 7.b       you don’t forget them.

No two people are just the same. If you don’t agree with other people, you should still be friendly. Do not argue, but 8.d      . You always lose friends if you argue too much. And you should think more of others than 9.o       yourself. It’s good for teenagers to have one or a group of good friends. This is very 10.i       in children’s growing up, because friends can discuss things which are too difficult to say to their family members.

There’s more good news for people who have friends. They live 11.l       than people who don’t have. Why? It could be that they12.a       happier. Being happy helps you stay well and it could be good just knowing that someone cares about you.

Not long ago, I opened an interesting e-mail from Jennifer, a friend of mine. “I’ve realized I want to be around people who make me happy,” she wrote, “I’ve been seeing how I feel after communicating with different people and making a mental list of who I feel good about. And you’re on my list.”
Then she invited me — and 11 other women— to a “Movie Night” to be held every six weeks at her house. We’d chat, eat, and watch feel-good movies. She made it clear in her invitation that there was no stress to show up to all or any movie nights. Wonderful! I e-mailed her back immediately. I was in.
Later, Jennifer told me she had some puzzled reactions to her invitation. Though all the women were willing to join, some said they didn’t see themselves as cheerful people. “I’ve told them they didn’t have to be cheerful around me all the time. I invited them because they made me feel happy,” she says.
Research shows that gatherings such as Jennifer’s make sense. In a US study, researchers measured(测量) the happiness of 4739 people at regular intervals (间隔) over 20 years. The study found that a person’s happiness depends on(取决于) the happiness of people they connect with. Amazingly, it also found that happiness spreads not only between direct friends, but also among friends of your friends’ friends! And those good feelings seem to be the most contagious (传染性的) among friends of the same sex.
“People with more supportive friends are less likely to develop sadness,” says Dr Toupey Luft, a psychologist in Penticyon, British Columbia. “Though you can’t choose your family or workmates, you do have control over friendships.” With a little effort, you can add more positive(乐观的) relationships to your social circle.
