Do you have friends? Yes, of course. The need of a friend is unquestionable in these days. International Friendship Day is a day for celebrating friendship. And it is very popular in western countries. The day has been celebrated in several southern South American countries for many years. Friendship Day comes on different dates in different countries. In 2011 the General Assembly of the United（联合国大会）stated 30 July as official International Friendship Day.
On a Friendship Day, not only teenagers but people in all age groups have different ways to make this day special for their friends. Some believe to give a surprise party to their very dear friends, while some believe to go for an outing and talk to each other will make their life special. Those who live far away from each other and can’t make to meet personally on Friendship Day prefer to send flowers and greeting cards online. There are different kinds of gifts in these days on Friendship Day. Some believe to give expensive gifts like a watch a mobile phone, a music player to their friends. There is no exact way how to celebrate a Friendship Day, and it depends on each and every one's feelings and standard of living. So people should think of the cost while celebrating Friendship Day. If you want to leave a memorable Friendship Day in the mind of your friends, the best way is to pay attention to what your friends like most.

Dear Ben，
I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble getting used to life in middle school. In your letter you said that you always felt lonely because of having few friends. I think it is a good choice to join some clubs in your school.
In this way, you can make more friends who share the same interest with you. Besides, you'd better be friendly to others. Smile at others and you are sure to get a smile in return.
You found it difficult to remember English words. Reading more English stories and news can help you learn English words Ina practical way. In addition, if you can develop a habit of keeping an English diary every day, it will be easier for you to remember more words. I hope you will find these suggestions useful.
Good luck with everything!
