Avery and I are good friends, but once something unpleasant(不愉快的) happened when we both tried out for roles(角色) in *Alice in Wonderland*.
Avery really
11 to be Alice and I was sure she could get the role. However, it turned out that I was picked to be Alice. Avery only got the part of the March Hare. "Do you want to practise together with me?" I asked. "Sorry, I'm busy this week," said Avery
12 looking at me. "And I will be always busy."
That night at dinner, my parents noticed I was not that
13 about getting the lead role. They wondered what happened. "Well, Avery was not picked to be Alice, but I was. She was unhappy. Maybe she will throw away our
14 ."
My father said, "Don't
15 it. I think this is a
16 for you to be an extra good friend."
"Dad's right," said my mother. "Sometimes
17 our friends do well, we may have feelings of envy(忌妒) and don't know how to act. Try giving
18 a little time, space and understanding, and she will change her mind soon."
Over the next week, I tried my best to give Avery some
19 . Then one day, on the way to our practice, I
20 her. "I just want to say, you're such a great actor when acting as the March Hare," I said with a smile. She seemed happy and
21 how she understood the role. When I asked her to help me with my role, she agreed and smiled too. She
22 said sorry to me for acting that way at first. Later, we became
23 to each other.
I've learned that people often have a
24 time dealing with envy and disappointment(失望). If you have similar
25 , you could try taking my parents' advice. Give your friend a little time, space and understanding. This might be the perfect time to be an extra good friend.
