1. Some people prefer to spend most of their time alone. Others like to be
with friends most of the time. Do you prefer to spend your time alone
or with friends Use specific reasons to support your answer.
========================================================
Leading a gregarious or solitary life is not an alternative question.
Both of them have advantages and disadvantages. As the old saying: “He who
touches pitch shall be defiled. “ We can broaden our horizons with erudite
friends, but we also may form bad habits from injurious friends. Likewise,
being alone is a great condition for meditation, but merely in an ivory
tower. What is the best proportion of them? To my opinion, being with friends
most of time is more beneficial.
As above mentioned, broadening our horizon is the first merit. People
with various backgrounds, countries, personalities and viewpoints, can share
us their experiences and knowledge which we may never go through. Therefore,
being with them is like being with walking dictionaries, and the dictionaries
are not sold in the bookstores.
Secondly, interacting with people can evoke our different emotions. We
usually stay calm when being alone. However, we may be joyous, upset,
disappointed, or angry in the interactions. No matter the emotion is positive
or negative; it helps us understand ourselves and enriches our lives.
The third reason is that friends are sometimes consultants or teachers
for us. When we are annoyed by difficulties, both physically or mentally, we
may turn to our friends for aids, advices, suggestions or even instructions.
In addition to being a recipient, we can sometimes perform a giver to help
our friends. In the mutually beneficial process, we gain abilities to deal
with our and others’ problems. For the many good points of being with
friends, spending most of our time with friends is almost the best use of
time.
