7.When I was 17 years old I had surgery because of a disease.The day after the surgery,I awoke to find a friend of mine sitting in a chair across from my bed.I don't remember much about his visit.But I will not forget that he visited me on that day,and sat there for I don't know how long,while I was under the influence of a morphine drip(輸液).We benefit greatly from our close friendships,but they are not a matter of calculable gain or loss.
Our age,what we might call the age of economics,is strongly influenced by two types of relationships that reflect the lives we are encouraged to lead.There are consumer relationships,those that we participate in for the pleasure they bring us.They are focused on the present.It is what brings immediate pleasure that matters.And there are entrepreneurial(商業(yè)的)relationships,those that we invest in,hoping they will bring us some return.
Aristotle thought that there were three types of friendship:those of pleasure,those of usefulness,and true friendship.In pleasure friendships,he said,"It is not for their character that men love ready-witted people,but because they find them pleasant."About the usefulness friendships,he said,"Those who love each other for their utility(效用)do not love each other for themselves,but because of some good which they get from each other."
Although we benefit from our close friendships,these friendships are not a matter of calculable gain and loss.Consumer pleasures are lasting for only a limited time.They surround us for a short period and then they fade,like a drug.Entrepreneur friendship,when successful,leads to the victory of personal gain.
It is precisely this non-economic character that is threatened in a society in which each of us is offered only the choices of ownership,shopping,competition and growth.It is threatened when we are led to believe that friendships without obvious recognizable gain are,in the economic sense,irrational(不合理的).Friendships are not without reason,perhaps,but they are certainly without that particular reason.Shared experience,not just everyday amusement or advancement,is the true basis of friendship.

2.Although everyone has a creative side and a logical side,some people find it a challenge to get in touch with their creative side.Being creative means being prepared to think of new and original ways to do things.Here are some ways to help you get in touch with your creative side.
When you want to be creative,it's very important to relieve any tension from your body so that your mind can be open to new experiences and not be occupied with dealing with tension or stress.It's possible to relax very quickly if you take three or four deep breaths.In the relaxed state you pick up a pen and start to write down all the potential ways that you could take to achieve what you want.You might find that you would like to use paints instead or a musical instrument to express your new found creativity and explore where it leads you.
Once you are fully relaxed,you can begin to think about the project you are attempting to complete and allow your mind to wander over various possibilities rather than immediately going for the obvious logical way to do it.Close your eyes and ask yourself  what ways there might be to solve your project and notice the scenarios ( 設(shè)想) which appear in your mind as you do  this.You may notice pictures,sounds or emotions or a combination of all three.Then imagine yourself moving into the scenario that you are thinking about and then discover what might or might not work for you and others.Be aware of any emotions that come up when you visit the various scenarios.Keep a notebook handy to write down your experiences and insights as a result of your visualization (可視化).
It's easy to dismiss unusual or different solutions which you haven't tried before but it's important to be prepared to experiment and play with them.Sometimes  what is needed is just doing something even if you are uncertain of the potential outcome.People often think of all the possible ways that something won't work and as a result they dismiss the idea of performing an experiment to see what would happen.The reality is that we can't foretell the future,so it's useful to plan for it in a creative and exciting new way.
