True friends are hard to find. Often you thought you could believe in someone, blater he or she may let you down (让你失望).
A true friend is someone who will always be there for you. Through good times or btimes, they will stand by your side. They will not l
you alone when things get difficult. They will accept you i
of trying to change you. A friend will b
new and exciting things into your life and make it richer.
True friends will be honest and you can always bin them. If you talk to someone who you believe in, you don’t have to w
about what you may say. We can enjoy this freedom only with friends.
Friendship is a two-way street. To find a true friend and keep the friendship byou, you must do the same thing as well. Be there for your friends when they are in n
and share the good times with them. Offer them the same things they give to you.
You will find that there is nothing more valuable thaving a true friend by your side to share life with, just as someone says, “There is nothing on this earth more to be prized (珍惜) than true friendship”.

Tigers are strong and dangerous animals. But now they are in danger.
In the past, there were eight kinds of tigers in the world. But during the 20th century, only five were left. The number of Siberian tigers (东北虎) was about 300, but now it is less than 22. They’re in danger of dying out. If the government does nothing, we won’t be able to see them in ten to twenty years.
In order to stop people from hunting and killing wild tigers, and in order to make wild tigers more, the World Wildlife Fund (世界自然基金会) has started a program (项目) recently (最近). China and twelve other countries joined it.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
Every Saturday morning, Helen Myers opens the door of the little library in Ellisville, Illinois. She raises the flag outside, sits down with a book and waits for people to come. “If I have two people come in, it’s a big crowd,” says Myers, 77.
The old lady has kept the library for more than 40 years in an old small building. It all began in June 1966, when Myers opened her library with 400 books from her home shelves. At that time, she took care of a boys’ community service group. “One of the boys noticed that I had a lot of books, and he said, ‘I sure wish we could have a library here in town.’” Myers remembers. That’s all she needed.
Today, people don’t read much. They watch TV and play video games. But that doesn’t stop Myers from opening her library every Saturday to share her love of books. The library has always been Myers’ favorite project. In the 1970s, when the old building was too dangerous to stay in, she began saving money for a new building.
She sells homemade cookies, and the money pays the bills for the library. As the news about the country’s smallest library spreads, donations began coming in. With the donations and her own savings, Myers built Ellisville Library II, which opened in October 2003. The new library has 3500 donated books, new and used.
Many times, Myers opens and closes the library and sees no one. “My daughter said, ‘Mom, why don’t you give up?’” Myers says, “I said, ‘No. Somebody, some day, may read. Who knows? A future president of the United States may come in and get a book.’”
The library doesn’t have a lot of readers, does it?
How many books did the library have when it opened in 1966?
What does Myers do to pay the bill for the library?
Why did she need a new building for the library?
Where did the money for the new building come from?
If you are Myers, what will you do? Why?
