友谊类型的写作题目学生在拿到之后应该怎么去处理呢？有些同学觉得此类的题目比较直观，但是也有部分会觉得无从下手，这里就给大家介绍几个比较好的方法。
01
影响友谊的因素
诚实：一个人能否对朋友完全坦诚
竞争：竞争是否会影响到友谊
经济背景：经济背景不同的人能否成为朋友
距离：一个人是否应该搬到新的城市或国家，因为距离会影响到友谊
分歧：朋友间出现分歧还是否能够保持友谊
年龄：年长的朋友与同龄朋友相比，谁能给出更有效的建议
02
朋友的选择
通常以比较类设问出现，比如better than, more important等等: 老朋友 vs/& 新朋友;幽默朋友 vs/& 睿智朋友
这类问题蔡蔡建议大家采取双向支持的方法展开论述，以防没有充分的分论点。
03
朋友的影响
这类问题已通常是比较类型，比较的对象可能为家人 vs/& 朋友以及老师 vs/& 朋友
关于是否可以双向支持的问题，托福官方有着明确的说明。在ETS托福官方指南第四版565页，sample的题目为：
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: It is more important to keep your old friends than it is to make new friends.
是否维持老朋友比结识新朋友更重要。
OG给出的题目分析为：“If you believe that old and new friends are equally important, you should present a balanced argument that explains the benefits of both types of friends.”
OG指出：观点可以说两者同等重要“equally important”论证时采用双向支持“balanced argument”的论证方式。
了解了友情类独立写作的出题角度与论证方式后，我们再来关注语料素材。
What is friendship?
Friendship fills our life with joy and is one of the most enjoyable privileges human beings are endowed with/blessed with.
Real friends are those who would stand by our side to render support in time of need and share joy and happiness in time of pleasure.
Friends will never judge us and will accept us just for who we are.
A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow. —— William Shakespeare
True friendship can endure the test of time/space/money.
Each individual may have his unique criteria for choosing friends.
The criteria of choosing friends differ among individuals.
Traits/features of friendship
定义完友情，我们再找寻一些友情的共同特性。
Nonetheless/nevertheless, there are common features existing in every real friend.

Birds of same feather flock together.

True friendship comes when the silence between two people is comfortable. —— David Tyson Gentry
Friends can easily understand what we are thinking without saying a word.
