六. Friends (2)
Steve, our monitor, is my best friend We go skating, play football, talk about sports,and go to a concert. When I broke my leg, he always came over to play games; in school, he carried my schoolbag for me and got my lunch for me. I know I can always count on him, and he also knows that he can count on me.
Some friends may be in your life for a while. Others will be there for a? longtime, maybe even forever(永远). I would hate to move, unless I could take my friends with me .They are too important to leave behind.
