　 俗话说：远亲不如近邻。住在一个小区里每个人都希望自己有个好邻居，那么什么样的邻居才是好邻居呢？ Being a good neighbour You can pick up your friends，but you cant pick up your neighbours.If you are lucky，you have good neighbours.But some neighbours are not pleasant and can make your life miserable at times.Neighbours can play an important role in your community and life，and remember you are a neighbour，too.Then what is a neighbour? A neighbour is someone who lives close by you，but“close”is relative.For the urban family，the neighbour is probably someone in the next apartment；however，for the rural family，the neighbour is a bit further away.But whats a good neighbour? A good neighbour is friendly and considerate.Though good neighbours may live close，they respect your space and privacy.Good neighbours may wave at you，stop to pet your dog and chat，and buy drinks for your children.Good neighbours take time to talk and smile. Good neighbours help each other.For example，in my community we sometimes get a heavy snowfall.When this happens，younger people in the community go out and shovel it for people who are older or have medical problems that prevent them from shoveling.Also，people help each other when cars get stuck—a common situation during the winter months. Most importantly，good neighbours are respectful.They consider the others who live around them.They avoid keeping others awake with loud parties and barking dogs. 1．relative adj.　　　　相对的 2．considerate adj. 体贴的 3．privacy n. 隐私 4．shovel v. 铲 5．respectful adj. 表示尊敬的；有礼貌的 1．What is a neighbour? ________________________________________________________________ 【答案】　A neighbour is someoe who lives close by you，but“close”is relative. 2．What good qualities should good neighbours have? ________________________________________________________________ 【答案】　Good neighbours should be friendly and considerate.Good neighbours should help each other.Most importantly，good neighbours should be respectful. 根据提示写出下列单词 1．survey n．　　　　　　调查 2．neighbourhood n. 四邻；街坊 3．local
