Question

Making friends is a skill. Like most skills it         patience（耐心）. If you want to meet people and make friends you must be willing to take some action. You must first go where there are people. You won't make friends staying home        .

Joining a club or group talking to those who like the same things       you do is much easier. Or join someone      some activities.

Many people are shy when talking to new people.             meeting strangers means seeing the unknown. And it's human nature to feel a bit          about the unknown. Most of fears（恐惧）about              new people come from doubts（怀疑）. We imagine other people are        us-finding us too tall or too short too this or too that. But don't forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept（接受）yourself     you are and try to put the other at ease（自由自在，自然）. You'll both feel more comfortable.

Try to act self-confident（自信）even if you don't feel that way when you     a room full of strangers. Walk straight look at other people directly and     .

If you see someone you'd like to     say something. Don't wait for         person to start a talk.

Just meeting someone        does not mean that you'll make friends with that person. Friendship is based on mutual（相互的）likings and "give and take". It takes time to     friendship.
