　　范文：

　　Through daily communication and interaction, we are unavoidably affected by people around us and at the same time we also exert certain impact on others. Given the importance of peer influence, it is necessary for us to clearly identify traits and characters of surrounding people. Some people prefer to judge from a person’s friends, but I do not think this is an effective method.

　　Admittedly, people holding this opinion may argue that birds of a feather flock together. The reason why people become friends is that they share something in common, such as personalities and hobbies. For instance, a person interested in playing basketball must frequently visit basketball court where he meets mates and enjoys the game together. All these make them more attractive to each other. Therefore, it is easy to draw the conclusion that a person with many friends who are fond of playing basketball is highly likely a basketball lover, too. Moreover, he may also have characters that sport fans share, like sportsmanship, perseverance, and teamwork spirits.

　　However, such conclusion is open to much criticism. To begin with, from one’s friends, we may just get to know a small part of this person. As mentioned above, the information we can collect is restricted to what he likes doing with friends and relevant characters. But in fact, an individual is very complicated, as under various occasions, he behaves differently, demonstrates divergent traits, or even generate controversial thoughts. For example, it is possible that a boy with much tenacity to train his basketball skills with friends actually has no will power to improve his academic performance, or even can hardly finish reading in literature class. Then, we cannot regard him as a person with perseverance, and the conclusion yielded from what type of friends he has is wrong.

　　Secondly, this approach fails when a person has too many friends. There are people who are very popular, because of their social skills, sense of humor or warmheartedness. Consequently, they are always surrounded by various kinds of friends wherever they go. Among those friends, there might be people with different personalities. A good example is the cheerleader, the focus in almost every school. With charming appearance and excellent dancing skills, she never fails to attract both boys who admire her beauty and girls who feel cool to be friend with her. In a large group of friends, there will be people showing divergent traits, like quiet and talkative, introversive and extroversive, etc.

　　To sum up, from one’s friends, we may get to know some parts of a person, but the information is quite limited and controversial if he has too many companions.

　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? One can learn a lot about a person from the type of friends this person has.

　　可以判斷：

　　1)物以類聚，人以群分

　　2)朋友相互影響，會變得很像彼此

　　不可以判斷：

　　1)只能了解一個人的部分情況

　　2)如果一個人有很多朋友，他的朋友會是有著各種性格的
