There are many things you can do to keep friendship strong forever.

Trust is very important in keeping any relationship strong and long lasting. If you trust the person whom you have a good relationship with and the other person also trust you in the same way, then you two have a good relationship.

You can remember important date of your friends such as their birthdays and wish them or give gifts to them on the special days. Many people say that money is the most important thing to consider, but remember friendship is not about money. You can find something small and inexpensive for their gifts or send online cards.

A friend should also always help others even when it is not very convenient. So have a helping hand ready at all times.

Sometimes distance makes relationships even closer. So, if you are far from your friends, there are many ways you can remain in contact. You can use email, chat programs, and you can also write a blog and share your daily life activities with your friends.

If there is anything that makes you happy, share it with your friends. Listen to their thoughts as well. If they have achieved something noticeable, congratulate them and celebrate with them.

I have seen good friendships and then there is unhealthy competition between two friends. Though this may not happen in many cases, it is better to keep this idea in mind since it may happen to you.

As far as I have seen and experienced, it will be better not to either lend to or borrow money from your good friend. Of course, we have to do this with friends. But, attention should be paid so that your friendship may not end.

On Earth Day, some people listen to speeches about the environment. Others help clean up their offices or save water and electricity at home. Your parents may even decide to take a day off from driving their cars.

The idea for Earth Day came from a US Senator(參議員), who was worried about pollution and the health of plants and animals. And the idea quickly caught on(流行起來). In 1970, the first Earth Day was celebrated. More than 20 million people in cities all over the US took part in. Since then, Earth Day has been used to educate people about their role in taking care of our planet.

Now, Earth Day has become a global celebration. In 1990, 200 million people from 140 countries took part in clean-ups, tree planting and other environmental events on Earth Day.
