He walked up to the counter.She smiled at him and asked, "Can I help you with anything?" The guy could only think that it was the most beautiful smile he had ever seen and stuttered (結(jié)結(jié)巴巴的說), "'Well, I'd like to buy a CD." He grabbed the first one he saw."Do you want me to wrap it?" the girl asked. The guy said yes and then took the wrapped CD home.

From that day on he visited the music store every day, and each day he bought a CD, and each day the girl wrapped it up and the guy stored it unopened in his closet.

He was too shy to find the nerve to ask the girl out.His mother noticed this and encouraged him.

The next day the guy set out for the store with a determined mind. He bought a CD and the girl wrapped it as usual.While she was busy , he left his telephone number on the counter and rushed out of the store.

The following day the guy didn't visit the store.When the girl called him, his mother answered the phone and started crying.The girl asked her what was the matter."He died yesterday," the mother said. There was a long silence.

Later that afternoon the guy' s mother entered his room and opened his closet.To her surprise, she saw a big pile of unopened CDs wrapped in festive paper.With curiosity she tore open the package and noticed a slip of paper "Hi! You're cute; I would love to meet you.Let's go out some time.Sophie."

The mother started crying as she opened another, and another.Every single CD contained a slip of paper that said the same.

That's the way life is.Don't wait to show those special people the way you feel.Tomorrow would be too late.

Friends aren’t just fun to have around; they actually help your health. A recent study finds that people who have a larger group of friends in their life live longer than those with few friends by 22%.

Friends help you develop healthy habits. Friends can influence you to make good health changes in your life. Going out with the girls, for example, may mean you see their healthy choices at lunch and do the same. A night out with the boys may include basketball or running rather than sitting in front of the TV. We often think of friends as a group that we have fun with, but a good time can also mean improving your world in some way. This is especially true when you have a lot of friends around you who want you to live a long and healthy life.

Friends help us meet the challenges differently. Failures (失敗) can cause many kinds of physical problems in our bodies, but friends can change the way we deal with them and help our emotional (情緒的) health, which in turn allows us to meet the challenges in a stronger way.

Friends help you find diseases earlier. Sometimes, a friend notices something unusual about one’s health that he or she hasn’t even realized. They can point it out and encourage their friends to see a doctor.

Friends want us to be around a long time. Friends are very important in our life.
