1、 M5U1 Reading Secrets and liesDear AnnieI feel betrayed by my friend Hannah. We have been best friends since primary school and spend almost every day with each other. Sometimes, other children say we are no fun because we are both very academic and like to study, but we like it that way. We are both very hard-working and always get good grades at school. On Monday, we had a surprise math quiz. I thought it was quite easy and was not worried about the results. I must have sounded very proud of m

2、yself after the quiz, saying how easy it was and how I was sure to get a good grade. The next day after class, my math teacher told me that I had the lowest grade in the class! I felt ashamed; I must be really stupid to fail a simple math quiz! Afterwards, I pretended to be cheerful, but Hannah sensed something was wrong. We went to wash out hands in the girls washroom before lunch and I admitted how badly I had done. I begged her not to tell anyone else, and she said she would keep my secret. H

3、owever, the next day, I noticed that my classmates were staring at me as I came into Maths class and when I went to sit down, I found a piece of paper on my desk that said Stupid Sarah got a D!I was so upset that I felt like crying. I thought that Hannah must have deliberately told everyone about my mark after promising not to. How they must have laughed behind my back!I was so angry that I went straight to Hannah and told her we werent going to be friends any more because she couldnt keep her w

4、ord. She was really upset and swore that she hadnt told anyone, but I know that the only people who see marks are the teacher and the student. She said that someone must have heard us in the toilets, but I dont believe her. I dont think I can ever forgive her. Now Ive lost my best friend. What shall I do? Yours sincerely Sarah A friendship in troubleDear Annie My name is Andrew. I am 17 years old and I have a problem. My best friend Matthew has stopped talking to me. We have been best friends si

The other team was superb and we really had to focus .I was determined to win, but Matthew was playing badly. He could not keep pace with the game, and as a result of his careless playing we lost. Afterwards, I got really angry with him, and I told him I thought he was not trying hard enough. He got annoyed, saying it wasnt his fault if he couldnt play as well as me, and

6、 that I shouldnt talk to him in this manner. Then we both started shouting at each other and it turned into a horrible argument. He accused me of some really bad things just to hurt me. I feel really guilty because he made some cruel remarks too, but I dislike seeing our team lose. Football is very important to me, but so is our friendship. Since we argued, he hasnt spoken to me even though we sit next to each other in class. Its really awkward. He is usually cheerful and outgoing, but he has be

7、en really quiet and looks sad. The things he said hurt me too, but he has not apologized to me. Yesterday, I saw him talking to another boy, Peter, and I cannot help wondering if he wants Peter to be his best friend instead of me. I told my brother about the quarrel, but he said Matthew is just too sensitive and perhaps a little bitter because I am really athletic and good at football, and that I had better find another friend. What should I do? Yours truly Andrew Project (A)Teenagers friendship

8、s My friend, Robert, has a twin sister named Amanda. Though they get along well, there are some things about Amanda and her friends that puzzle Robert. He cant understand how girls can talk for so long. For example, sometimes when he leaves the apartment to play football, Amanda and her friend, Sharon, are sitting on the sofa, talking. When he comes back three and a half hours later, they are still sitting on the sofa, continuing the same conversation on the same topic. One day Robert was so cur

9、ious that he asked Amanda what they talked about, but she replied, were best friends. We talk about almost everything-film stars, pop songs, recipes, everything! Boys and girls have different attitudes towards friendship. Friendships between girls are usually anchored in shared feelings and support, but friendships between boys are based on shared activities or interests. A boy is likely to be cautious about sharing his feelings with his close friends. A girls closest friend, however, might be eager to tell her about something hat has happened in her life. Many students worldwide show that girls have more friendships than boys. In fact, many adolescent males cannot name a single best friend.
