what kind of friends you will choose？你會(huì)選擇什么樣的人做朋友

Choosing friends that are either similar or different from one self can be a difficult task. Friends that share many similarities can offer a common purpose and way of life that is reassuring. Friends who are vastly different, on the other hand, may challenge and expand one's mind, opening new vistas of thought where there were none before.

Despite powerful arguments for both sides, I prefer friends who are different from me. First of all, choosing friends who are different from me allows me to learn from others. For example, I have a dear friend, who although not academically inclined like myself, is a master with technology. He works with television news stations preparing their broadcasts for dissemination to the public. I,

On the other hand, am technologically challenged. Despite my technological weakness, my friend has taken me under his wing and showed me some ‘trick of the trade' in sound and video editing that I would have mastering technological innovations, without becoming friends with someone who has a disparate skill set than my own, I would have never learned about the work that goes into producing a television broadcast.

Secondly, choosing friends that are different has challenged me to reassess my own world-view. My best friend growing up in the United States was a recent immigrant from South Korea. His family was a traditional Korean family, espousing communal values over individualistic ones, and promoting tradition and respect before innovation. Being American, however, I was raised with an individualistic attitude toward most aspect of life. Rather than ask for help, I would often struggle to overcome the challenge myself. Spending time in my Korean friend's home made me ponder the opposing world views of ‘communalism' and ‘individualism'. I eventually came to the conclusion that incorporating a bit of each perspective in my life would provide me with the greatest balance.

In conclusion, I prefer choosing friends that are dissimilar from me. Having such friends has allowed me to learn from the skills that they have that I do not share.

In addition, choosing friends who are different from me has helped me realize that opposing approaches to viewing and interacting in the world can be blended into a harmonious, personal world-view. Friends are vital to life. Having friends that are diverse is both a challenge and a joy, two factors that help provide a rich and rewarding life.

選擇性格跟自己既要有相似又要有不同的地方是很困難的，朋友就是可以有很多相似之處并且提供一個(gè)共同的目標(biāo)和生活的方式。朋友有很大的區(qū)別，而另一方面，可以擴(kuò)展一個(gè)人的思維，前所未有的開放我們的思想。

盡管雙方都持有有力的論據(jù)，我更喜歡我的朋友跟我性格有所不同。首先，我們可以從一個(gè)性格不同的朋友身上學(xué)到很多。例如，我有一個(gè)朋友，雖然不是跟我一樣具有學(xué)者風(fēng)度，但是個(gè)技術(shù)高手。他在電視新聞臺(tái)向人們展示他們的節(jié)目。

在另一方面，具有技術(shù)上的挑戰(zhàn)。雖然我的技術(shù)相對(duì)弱一些，在朋友的帶領(lǐng)下，我學(xué)會(huì)了聲音和視頻編輯，并且掌握了技術(shù)上的一些創(chuàng)新的“訣竅”，沒有擁有不同技能的朋友，我應(yīng)該也不會(huì)接觸到電視廣播的工作。

其次，選擇性格不同的朋友對(duì)重新審視自我的世界觀是具有挑戰(zhàn)的。我最好的朋友從韓國(guó)移民到美國(guó)，并在美國(guó)長(zhǎng)大。他的家庭是一個(gè)傳統(tǒng)的韓國(guó)家庭，在個(gè)人主義的人信奉共同價(jià)值觀，創(chuàng)新才推動(dòng)傳統(tǒng)和尊重。身為美國(guó)人，但我提出與對(duì)生活的大多數(shù)方面的個(gè)人主義的態(tài)度。與其求人，我常常會(huì)努力克服的挑戰(zhàn)自己。在我的韓國(guó)朋友家花時(shí)間讓我思考'地方自治主義“和”個(gè)人主義“的對(duì)立的世界觀。我最終得出的結(jié)論是結(jié)合我生命中的每一點(diǎn)角度會(huì)為我提供了最大的平衡。

最后，我寧愿選擇朋友是跟我性格有差異的。有這樣的朋友也讓我學(xué)到不同的技能。

此外，選擇性格不同于自己的朋友可以幫助我認(rèn)識(shí)到，反面的方法來觀察和世界的互動(dòng)可融合成一個(gè)和諧的，個(gè)人的世界觀。朋友是人生至關(guān)重要的。擁有不同性格的朋友既是挑戰(zhàn)同時(shí)也是一個(gè)樂趣，兩個(gè)因素有助于提供一個(gè)豐富而有意義的生活。
