H: how are you doing, Andrew?

A: not well. I’ve been feeling pretty lonely lately.

H: but you have so many friends! How could you be lonely?

A: you know what they say: a friend to all is a friend to none. I don’t feel like I really know any of my friends. In fact, I should call them acquaintances, not friends.

H: what about me? I’m your friend.

A: I know you are, you are my girlfriend. I wish I had a guy friend to hang out with sometimes.

H: I know what you mean. I find it difficult to make new friends, too. It’s not as easy as it was when we were young, is it?

A: not at all.

H: I’ve made a lot of new friends since I started learning English. Maybe you could join a club or take a class to make some new friends.

A: that’s a good idea.

H: what kind of qualities do you look for in a friend?

A: I’m not sure. I guess I’d like to meet some people who have a positive attitude and want to have a good time.

H: people who play ultimate Frisbee have a positive attitude; maybe you should join the ultimate Frisbee club.

A: that’s a possibility. Thanks!

你最近怎么样，安德鲁?

不怎么样。我最近觉得特别孤单。

可是，你有那么多朋友!怎么会觉得孤单呢?

你知道有句俗话是这么说的：交游满天下，知心无一人。我觉得我对自己的朋友们其实哪一个都不了解。坦白说，我不该管他们叫朋友，而是应该叫熟人。

那我算什么呢?我是你的朋友啊!

我知道你是，可是你是我的女朋友。我希望自己能有个同性朋友，有时候可以混在一起消磨时间的那种。

我懂你的意思。我也觉得结交新朋友不是一件容易的事。不像我们年轻的时候那么容易，对吧?

一点没错。

我开始学英语以来认识了不少新朋友。如果你去参加个俱乐部或者报个班也许就能认识新朋友了。

这主意不错。

你希望找到的朋友有什么样的品质?

我也说不好。我想我希望认识一些在一起很开心，有积极人生态度的人。

玩极限飞碟的人通常都有积极向上的生活态度，你可以去参加极限飞碟俱乐部。

这主意不错。谢谢!
