　　Friendship in My Eyes！
　　＂Friendship in My Eyes ＂
　　Hi everyone, my name is Tang Zijie.
　　I am so happy to talk about friendship with you today.
　　I know, I am just a 9-year-old young boy without that much life experience.
　　But I do have some friends in school and I learned my lesson from different types of friendships.
　　大家好，我是唐子杰，很高兴今天能够站在这里和大家分享＂友谊＂这个话题。
　　虽然我还只是一个9岁的小男孩，并没有太多丰富的人生经验。
　　但是我在学校也交了不少朋友，而且我从不同的友谊中也收获了不少感悟。
　　Friendships are like elevators; either they will bring you up or take you down.
　　I have a best friend, his name is Matthew, we have been friends with each other since kindergarten.
　　He is like the ＂positive elevator＂ in my life, never hesitated to help me out when I am in trouble.
　　友谊就像电梯一样，好的友谊会给你的人生增色，而坏的友谊则会拉你入深渊。
　　我最好的朋友叫Matthew，我们从幼儿园时开始就是朋友了。
　　他就像是我人生中的＂积极电梯＂，每当我需要帮助的时候，他总是毫不犹豫地伸出援手，帮助我成为更好的我。
　　I still remember one time I had some difficulties with my exam, he just showed up in my place and helped me with that.
　　I performed excellently in the exam and he was proud of me.
　　See, this is what we called true friendship. It is words with love, love with understanding, and actions with trust.
　　记得有一次，我正为了复习考试而烦恼时，他就出现在了我身边，在他的帮助下我顺利通过了考试，并且取得了优异的成绩，他也非常为我感到高兴。
　　这就是所谓的真正的友谊：从语言上鼓励你，从行动上支持你，发自内心地理解你。
　　There are three tips that I want to share with you:
　　在这里我想跟大家分享三个关于友谊的小建议：
　　No.1: Choose friends who have similar values with you.
　　Getting along with a friend who shares the same interests and values as you, makes life so much easier, trust me.
　　第一点：选择与你有着共同的价值观的朋友。
　　相信我，和志同道合的人在一起努力会更加轻松。
　　No.2: Choose friends who have common goals with you.
　　If you have a common goal, you will help each other along the way.
　　A true friend always stands together and helps each other.
　　Common goals in life will bound you together and push you forward.
　　第二点：选择与你有着相同目标的朋友。
　　如果你们有着共同的目标，在奋斗的路上可以互相帮助。
　　真正的朋友总是并肩作战，相互支持的。共同的目标会将你们联系在一起，推动你们前行。
　　No.3: A true friend may criticize you so that you may come out of your shortcoming.
　　Do not expect to hear all the positive compliments from your true friend, because who loves you more, might criticize you more, everything they want is you become a better person.
　　第三点：真正的朋友会指出你的不足，并帮助你不断改善。
　　不要总是期待从朋友那里听到肯定和赞美，真正爱你和为你好的人可能是批评你更多的人，他们所做的一切都是为了让你成为一个更好的人。
　　There is one more thing I want to say, you have no idea when your forever friend will come into your life, but there is one thing you can do before this person shows up, that is work harder to become a better person.
　　If you want to have a friend of good quality, you better live with high standard.
　　最后我还想说的一点是，你不知道什么时候会遇到那个值得深交的朋友，在那个人出现之前，你能做的就是努力让自己成为一个更好的人。
　　如果你想和优秀的人做朋友，那你也需要用高标准来要求自己。
　　This is friendship in my eyes, and I hope all of you can find your true friendship in life, cherish it, maintain it and enjoy it!
　　这就是我眼中的友谊，我也衷心地希望每个人的人生中都能够收获真正的友谊，珍惜它、维护它、享受它！
　　I am Tang Zijie, thank you so much! 我是唐子杰，谢谢大家！
