Then give a speech based on the following outline:1.  What is friendship?2.  How can you save or maintain a friendship?Your answer：Reference answer：      Friendship is the cooperative and supportive relationship between people. In this sense, friendship involves mutual knowledge, esteem, affection, and respect, along with an element of rendering service to friends in times of need or crisis. Friends will welcome each other's company and exhibit loyalty towards each other. Their tastes will usually be similar and may converge, and they will share enjoyable activities. They will also engage in mutually helpful behavior, such as the exchange of advice and the sharing of hardship.      Friendship is a relationship which takes time to build and takes work and understanding. If there is something wrong with your friendship, in order to save it you really need to understand what exactly has taken place and had a negative influence on the relationship. It requires communication. It requires sitting down with your friend and saying, "What happened?" "What did I do?" "What did I do that was offensive?"     If you want to maintain a friendship, you should always stand up for your friend, especially in his or her absence. Always give emotional support to your friends. When you and your friends are together, try to make your friends happy. You should always offer to help your friends in times of need. You also should keep confidences. When your friends tell you something, they only want you to know; it's for your ears only.B. Story dictationListen to a story and fill in the missing words.

One day she heard the hounds approaching her and hoped to escape them through the aid of her friends. So she went to the horse, and (1)  (asked him to carry her away) from the hounds on his back. But he declined, stating that he had important work to do for his master. He felt sure, he said, that all her other friends would come to her assistance. She then applied to the bull, hoping that (2)  (he would repel the hounds) with his horns. The bull replied, "I am very sorry, but I have an appointment with a lady; but I feel sure that our friend the goat will do what you want." The goat, however, feared that his back (3)  (might do her some harm ) if he took her upon it. The ram, he felt sure, was the proper friend to ask for help. So she went to the ram and told him her case. The ram replied, "Another time, my dear friend. I do not want to interfere on the present occasion, as hounds have been known to eat sheep as well as hares." The hare then applied, as a last hope, to the calf, (4)  (who regretted that he was unable to help her), as he did not want to take the responsibility upon himself, as so many older persons than himself had declined the task. By this time the hounds were quite near, and the hare took to her heels and (5)  (was lucky to escape). The moral of the story is that he that has many friends has no friends. -第 9 页-
