Having a best friend to confide in can bring a positive effect on our emotional health An evening out with the closest friend may be the best guarantee of a good time In fact, our best friend can prevent us from developing serious psychological problems such as depression and anxiety
Best friendship evolves with time - we cannot go out and pick our best friend We become friends with people who share common interests – at school or through hobbies, for example
Best friends have usually known each other for years and stuck together through good and bad
times If you haven't got one, perhaps you are being too distant from people, or focusing too much on
your work

E Read the passage carefully, then decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F)
The proverb 'A friend in need is a friend indeed.' means that we shall know who our real friends are
when we are in need Those who desert us when we are in difficulty are just unfaithful friends
A true friend would remain with us whether we are rich or poor Some people be friend the rich, simply for the sake of getting benefits from them
It is useless to have insincere friends because these friends remain with us as long as we are rich or
powerful It is better to have one or two good friends rather than having hundreds of insincere ones
A true friend will stand by us in our trials and tribulations He will be a great source of consolation
and comfort in our troubles So we must be careful in choosing our friends It is difficult to choose a sincere friend overnight; it takes years for us to find a sincere friend
1 Real friends share everything we need
2 Unfaithful friends stop being our friends when we are in trouble
3 A rich friend is always a true friend
4 A true friend is always loyal to us and support us through our difficulties
5 It's not worth having a lot of friends
6 It may take a lot of time to find a real friend
