TEXTO 1:
SOME EASY WAYS TO MAKE FRIENDS
1. It’s hard to make friends if you stay home all the
time. Get out of the house and do things that
will put you in touch with other people. Join a
club or play a sport. Attend meetings of
neighborhood associations or other groups. It’s
easier to make friends when you have similar
interests.
2. Learn from people at school or work who seem
to have lots of friends. Observe how they make
and keep friends. Don’t imitate all the things
they do. But try to notice what they do. Then try
some of those things yourself.
3. Don’t be afraid to show people what you’re
really good at. Talk about the things you like
and do best. Don’t hide your strong points.
People will be interested in you if there is
something interesting about you.
4. Plan things to talk about with people. Find out
what’s in the newspaper headlines, listen to the
top CDs, learn about what’s new with your
favorite TV or movie star. The more you have
to say, the more people will be interested in
having a conversation with you.
5. Be a good listener. Let people talk about
themselves before talking about “me, me, me.”
Ask lots of questions. Show an interest in their
answers. This alone will make people want to
be your friend.
6. Once you start to get to know someone, don’t
be friendly one day and then too shy to talk the
next day. Be consistent. Consistency is
something people look for in friends.
7. Have confidence in yourself. Don’t be selfcritical all the time. This will only make the
process more difficult. Think of your good
qualities. People are attracted to those with
self-confidence.
8. Try to make friends with the kind of people you
really like, respect, and admire – not just with
those who are easy to meet. Be friendly with a
lot of people.

TEXTO 2:
BEST FRIENDS
1. Men and women share the exact same view
of a best friend − a person who is always
there for you. Your best friend is someone
you can depend on to share your happiness,
suffer through your worries, or lessen your
sorrow.
2. A great variety of factors play into the birth of
a best friendship − the age and
circumstances under which people meet,
what first attracts them, why they remain
close, and how they fill each other's needs.
Yet I found the dominant themes that define a
best friend were remarkably similar across
the broadest range of experiences.
3. Safety was a word I heard over and over. A
best friend is a safe harbor, a guaranteed
comfort zone. You never have to explain
yourself to best friends because they really,
really know who you are. With best friends,
you can be who you are. You can cry too
hard or laugh too loud and never worry what
they'll think of you because best friends are
nonjudgmental. They will give you advice if
you want it and a kick in the pants if you need
it, but best friends will not judge you or make
you ashamed of your behavior. A best friend
gives you what you expect from a parent and
don't always get: unconditional love.
4. Best friends are loyal and trustworthy. A best
friend is a person to whom you can tell your
most embarrassing, revealing, and damaging
personal secrets with the full confidence they
will never be repeated. Best friends can
deliver brutally honest answers in the most
gentle fashion.
5. Finally, best friends are the family you
choose. They love you because they want to,
not because they have to. And for many
people, a best friend becomes the brother or
sister they'd always wanted, but never had.

replace your family.

have a doubt.
