In choosing a friend,one should be very careful.Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck,but when you are down,they will run away.Do you know how I have found a good friend?I look for certain qualities of character,such as understanding,honesty and reliability（可靠）.
Most important of all,I look for understanding in a friend.A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling.He puts himself in the other person\’s place,and he tries to think of ways to be helpful.He is also a good listener.
At the same time,however,a good friend is honest.He does not look for faults（过错） in others.He notices their good points.In short,a friend will try to understand me and accept me.
Another quality of a friend is reliability.I can always depend on a good friend.If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time,I can be sure that he will be there.If I need a favor,he will do his best to help me.If I am in trouble,he will do his best to help me.
There is another quality that makes a friend special.A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun.A good friend likes the same things I like.We share experience and learn from each other.A good friend has a good sense of humor,too.He likes to laugh with me.
When I meet someone who is reliable,honest,and understanding.I know I\’ve found a friend.
