Its hard when a best friend isnt aroundmaybe because she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime. You want to have new friends. But how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has their friends. But remember, theres always room for more friends. Start by looking around your classroomthink about which kids youd like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation（欣赏）to them. Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom. When youre at break, walk over to kids you want to play with. Act friendly, and say “Hi, can I play, too?” or just join in. If you have trouble doing this or if youre feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to helpand pretty soon, youll have one, or two, or even more new friends.

Over time the city would not like to use all 50 of their buses again, they would like to use the new hybrid buses. They hope to do this over the next three years. The city will give money to help buy the new kind of buses. One other bit of good news: the price of bus ticket will not grow because of the new buses.56.
