27、 ____ 56 ___. When we are asked whether boys and girls can associate with each other, most of us will say, “Yes, of course. Why not?”

____ 57 ____, here are some “dos and don’ts” for you to follow. Keep a normal and healthy state of mind. Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls. It is very natural for boys and girls to contact each other and build up the friendship with the students of the other sex. Generally speaking, ____ 58 ____. We should make as many friends as possible. We should have more friends of the other sex instead of one or two. We should contact the students in public instead of in secret.

Contact students of the other sex warmly, generously and sincerely. Don’t be too nervous or too shy in contact with a person of the other sex. In that case it is very difficult for you to make a lot of friends, as ____ 59_____. If you are too shy a person, you can also find a way out. First of all, you can contact the students with the same interest and hobby with you. As both of you have much in common, you may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others.

_____60 ____. The boys and girls at adolescence are rich in feeling and full of imagination. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age.
