a man who is careful in choosing friends will certainly derive benefit from them. why? because there are more false friends than real ones in this world. to have one real friends is better than a hundred false ones. friends who flatter you to your face are not true friends.

　　we must make friends with those who have good character and kindness of heart. on the other hand,we should do our best to a void keeping company with bad people.

　　一個小心選擇朋友的人一定會從他們那里獲得益處。為什么?因為在這個世界里假朋友比真朋友要多。有一個真朋友要比有一百個假朋友來得好。凡是當面奉承你的朋友不是真朋友。

　　我們必須和凡是具有良好品格和心地善良的人交朋友。反過來說，我們應(yīng)盡力避免結(jié)交壞人。
