Page 26 Lesson Plan – English 11  2010 – 2011  Key: 1. It is unselfishness. It tells us that a person who is concern only with his own interests and feelings cannot be a true friend. 2. Because they take up an interest with enthusiasm but they are soon tired of it and they feel the attraction of some new object. 3. It is loyalty. It tells us that the two friends must be loyal to each other and they must know each other so well that there can be no suspicions between them. 4. Because if not, people cannot feel safe when telling the other their most intimate secrets. 5. Because they cannot keep a secret either of their own or of other. 6. It is sympathy.
