Gina was a 3rd grader. She was very clever, but she had no friends at school until Rita joined her class. New to the city and too shy to make any friends, Rita did not mind being Gina's friend. At least she had someone to play with.

One day the teacher scolded (训斥) Rita for not concentrating when she was doing some math problems. The whole class laughed at her and Rita cried hard. The teacher had patiently explained how to do them, but Rita was just not able to understand.

Gina told her mother about Rita's bad day. "Why don't you try to help her?" asked her mother. " She likes you very much."

" Mommy, I don't have time to waste." said Gina.

" But Rita is your friend and if you don't help her, who will?" said her mother. But Gina didn't think so.

" Then Gina's mother decided to act tough(强硬地)." If you don't help her, I will not let you watch cartoons for a week."

Extremely unhappy, Gina taught Rita. Rita understood, for Gina knew how to explain things simply. Rita was excited and told everyone what a good friend Gina was.

One day, Gina made a mistake, and the principal (校长) asked Gina to pick up the waste paper in every classroom after school.

After school, Gina began to clean the classrooms and she felt very sad. Rita found out about it and went to help her do it.

From that day, Gina and Rita became the best of friends.
