A friendship in trouble Dear Annie My name is Andrew. I am 17 years old and I have a problem. My best friend Mathew has stopped talking to me. We have been best friends since childhood and play together in the school football team. Last week, we had an important match against another school. The other team was superb and we really had to focus. I was determined to win, but Matthew was playing badly. He could not keep pace with the game, and as a result of his careless playing we lost. Afterwards, I got really angry with him, and I told him I thought he was not trying hard enough. He got annoyed, saying it wasnt his fault if he couldnt play as well as me, and that I shouldnt talk to him in this manner then we both started shouting at each other and it turned into a horrible argument. He accused me of some really bad things just to hurt me. I feel really guilty because I made some cruel remarks too, but I dislike seeing our team lose. Football is very important to me but so is our friendship. Since we argued, he hasnt spoken to me even though we sit next to each other in class. Its really awkward. He is usually cheerful and outgoing, but he has been really quiet and looks sad. The things he said hurt me too, but he has not apologized to me. Yesterday, I saw him talking to another boy, Peter, and I cannot help wondering if he wants Peter to be his friend instead of me. I told my brother about the quarrel, but he said Matthew is just too sensitive and perhaps a little bitter，because I am really athletic and good at football, and that I had better find another friend. What should I do? Yours truly Andrew. 译文： 困惑中的友谊 亲爱的Annie： 我是Andrew，17岁。我碰到一个问题：我最好的朋友Mathew不和我说话了。我们从小就是最好的朋友，并且一起在校足球队踢球。上周，我们与另一所学校进行了一场重要的球赛。那支球队很厉害，我们确实需要全力以赴。我一心想打赢，可Mathew踢得很差，没跟上节奏。就因为他那么马马虎虎，我们输了。赛后，我冲他发脾气了，说我认为他在球场上卖力不够。他发火了，说就是他的球踢得不如我，输球也不是他的问题，我不该冲他发这么大的火。于是，我们俩吵了起来，闹得很凶。他数落了我许多我曾经做过的坏事来伤害我。 我真为我不留情面的责怪感到后悔，我也是不想看到我们的队输球。足球对我来说很重要，可友谊也是一样重要啊！自从我俩吵架以后，我们在教室就是坐到了一起，他也不跟我说话。真的尴尬！他一向活泼外向，但他却变得
