交各种朋友生活更精彩（friends of all types make life colorful）
     i like blue, but i dress myself in green, red and yellow;i like tea, but i drink milk, coffee and orange juice as well.
i have friends, and i prefer friends of all types to friends of the same kind. in my opinion, one can benefit from various sorts of friends in three aspects.
     first, when you are in trouble, you can get help in time from friends. for one thing, the substantial help. it would be a shock when the teacher assigned you to take charge of the web site of class when you knew nothing about internet. then god endowed you with a friend at hand, a computer expert who proficiently cured your headache with a few gentle clicks on the screen. you must be thankful for such a granting. for another,a kind of enlightenment. when going through the marxist philosophy yesterday, i was confused by the statement "negate the negation." poor in philosophical thinking, i turned to a friend majoring in law. she didn＇t quite understand it either, but she had been taught that criminal sanction was negating the negation of crime. just as a sparkle, this simple remark burned away all the chaos in my head and made clear the definition. a miracle,isn＇t it?
     second, various friends lead you to different inspiration,and allow you to experience different fun. one day, unusually, i skipped my lunch and just took an apple to console my stomach.my classmate, the future journalist, shouted out, "what a piece of news! you are also dieting?" then the future advertising expert said, "how creative! how did you get such an idea?" in fact, the most creative award should go to the girl who majors in chinese language, "with the fragrance winding about your fingers, i can see that an apple just kissed your lips."
     the third point may not be widely applicable. in fact, to make a variety of friends is an requirement of my major, journalism. my honorable professor stated this straightforward, "journalists live on news resources. the most convenient resource is your friends. so i strongly suggest that those who don＇t want to starve to death learn some psychology, practice your communication skills and make friends with people in as many fields as possible !"
     this may sound too radical but i still think a diversity of friends are more favorable, bringing you help, fun and experiences and keeping you free from the dull monologue of people of similar characters. just as various kinds of nutriments keep you healthy, various kinds of friends keep you lively.
