Do You Need to “Edit Your Friends”？
Is your mobile phone directory full of phone numbers of people you don't really want to talk to? Do you go out with people from work or school more often than with your real friends? Do you say yes to invitations because you think you should,not because you want to? If you answer yes to at least two of these questions,then perhaps you need to “edit your friends”.
Nowadays people like to spend a lot of time with people at work or classmates at school. The result is that we don't have enough time to see our real,close friends. As our lives get busier,it becomes more important to spend the little free time we have with people we really want to see,people we love and who really love us.
Who are the friends you need to edit? A few years ago I read a book about how to get rid of unnecessary possessions (物品) . It said you should ask yourself about each thing you have： Is it useful? Do I really like it? Do I feel better every time I look at it? If the answer is no to any one of those questions,you should throw it away. Maybe we should ask similar questions about our friends. What kind of friends will you probably need to edit? Sometimes it's an old friend. Somebody who you used to have a lot in common with,but who,when you meet now,you have very little or nothing to say to. Or it might be a new friend who you get on quite well with,but who is taking up too much of your time. Next time one of these people calls you and suggests a meeting,think “Do I really want to see this person?” and if the answer is no,say no,and make an excuse. That way you’ll have more time to spend with your real friends.
1. People need to edit their friends when.
A. they have moved to a different area
B. they have no time with their real fiends
C. some of their friends don't talk very much
D. their friends are people from work or school
2. What does the word “edit” in the passage mean?
A. Examine and choose.
B. Believe and help.
C. Miss and see.
D. Call and meet.
3. People don't need to edit their .
A. real friends
B. old friends
C. young friends
D. new friends
4. What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 3 ?

B. Most of our friends are not necessary at all.
C. We shouldn’t treat our friends as possessions.
D. We should ask ourselves who our real friends are.
