When I was a young student, a Chinese teacher told us, “If you make one close friend in school, you will be most fortunate. A true friend is someone who stays with you for life.”   36    tells us that he was right. Good friendship is just not easily   37  . It is possible that we simply do not stay in one place long enough for   38   friendship to   39  .
However, there can be   40   disagreement on the need for each of us to think carefully about the kind of friendship we want. To most of us, friendships are considered very important, but we need to have clear in our   41    the kinds of friendship we want. Are they to be close or   42    at arm’s length? Do we want to   43   ourselves or do we want to walk on the surface? For some people, many friendships on the surface are   44   enough—and that’s all right. But at some point we need to   45    that our expectations are the same as our friends’ expectations. The sharing of   46   experience   47   our tears as well as our dark dreams is the surest way to deepen friendships. But it   48   be undertaken（进行）slowly and carried on only if there are   49   of interest and action in return.
What are some of the   50   of friendship? The greatest is the attraction to expect too much too soon. Deep relationships   51   time. Another “major difficulty” is the selfishness to think one “possesses” the other, including his time and attention. Similarly, friendships   52   actions in return. In   53   words, you must give as much as you take.
Finally there is a question of taking care of. Unless you spend   54   time together, talking on the phone, writing letters, doing things together, friendships will die   55  .
