 True friends are hard to find. Often you thought you could believe in someone, b   1    later he or she may let you down (讓你失望).

A true friend is someone who will always be there for you. Through good times or b   2    times, they will stand by your side. They will not l   3    you alone when things get difficult. They will accept you without trying to change you. A friend will b   4    new and exciting things into your life and make it richer.

True friends will keep your worst secrets as you will keep t   5   . They will be honest and you can always believe in them. If you talk to someone who you believe in, you don’t have to w   6    about what you may say. We can enjoy this freedom only with friends.

    Friendship is a two-way street. To find a true friend and keep the friendship b   7    you, you must do the same thing as well. Be there for your friends when they are in n   8    and share the good times with them. Offer them the same things they give to you. Friendship will break quickly if only one person is giving and p  9    effort into it.

   You will find that there is nothing more valuable t   10    having a true friend by your side to share life with, just as someone says, “There is nothing on this earth more to be prized (珍惜) than true friendship”.

It was the end-of-year party. I had asked my mother to make us cookies. Mom’s chocolate chips were the best.
But two o’clock passed, and there was no sign of her. Most of the other mothers had come and gone, dropping off their cakes and chips. The party went on, but I wouldn’t leave the window. The three o’clock bell soon took me away from my thoughts（思緒）. I took my bag and walked out for home.
The house was empty when I arrived. My heart was filled with anger(氣憤). For the first time in my life, my mother had let me down. I was lying on my bed when I heard her coming. “Robbie,” she called out. “Where are you?” She was looking for me from room to room, but I kept silent.
When she came into my room, I didn’t move, “I’m so sorry,” she said. “I got busy and forgot.” She began to laugh. I couldn’t believe it. I turned over and found that she wasn’t laughing but crying. “I’m so sorry. I let my boy down.” she cried like a little girl. I had never seen my mother cry.
“It’s OK, Mom,” I said, “We didn’t need those cookies. There was plenty of food to eat. Don’t cry. It’s all right.” We held each other in a long hug(擁抱).
