line into jealousy？for most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship.when this happens it can seem like there is nothing that you can do，but the good news is that there is.dont let jealousy spoil your relationships.tackle it head on and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.it can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is，but if you want to save your friendship youll have to do just that.dont approach them and ask why they are jealous of you (unless of course you want to appear totally conceited)，just take some time alone with them and let them know that youve been feeling like theres been something coming between you.if they refuse to respond，then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling.chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well.when you figure out what is annoying your friend，ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better.if，for example，(s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesnt get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from the swim team then maybe you could invite her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of you.remember，though，that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise.dont limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy.try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.even the best of friendships can be tinged by jealousy.this destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies.before taking extreme action，chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise.if you cant，be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you wont.【语篇解读】 本文是关于人际关系的话题。尤其是青少年朋友之间会因为嫉妒而使相互间的友谊被破坏，本文着重讲述如何处理被朋友嫉妒及处理过程中可能遇到的困难。1according

the use of an exciting smart phone, an important part of the lob which is in the early stages of development. and the peoples archive is an online library of historical figures of the city being built up by a digital content company in cahoots, in which users will be encouraged to add to and comment on the material. gambles says:“technology will enable us to make the librarys content and services

this heavy traffic causes delays and lots of pollution from cars that are using their engines but not moving anywhere. many cars going nowhere is called a “traffic jam.”while many cities in the united states have traffic problems, some of the worst are in los angeles, california. los angeles is a big city with a large downtown area. one of the reasons why there is so much traffic is that few people use public transportation to get aroundexperts say one possible solution to the traffic problem in los angeles would be to make people want to use the public transportation system of buses instead of their own cars. people say the buses should be made easier, faster, less costly and more dependable than driving a car.one suggestion is to reduce the cost of riding the bus. people who usually drive their cars could save a lot of money on gas and parking costs. also, los angeles could make the buses easier for people to use. the buses could travel to more places in the city. and there could be more special lanes on the freeways that only buses could drive in. these changes would make taking the bus faster and easier than driving a car.other experts have said that the best way to ease traffic problems is to charge people money to drive on the freeways. these charges, or tolls, would be for the most crowded roads. the tolls would be in effect during the times of day when most people drive to work and home again. these times in the morning and late afternoon are called “rush hour”. people would try to avoid driving on these roads, which would decrease the amount of traffic. also
