Nowadays, friend play an important role in everyone's life, many people argue that two people can still be good friends if one of them has more money than than the others. I disagree. Firstly, I consider the importance of sincerity for two persons being good friends. For example, I make friend just concern about whether he will open his mind to me by communicating or not.There is no doubt that it is of vital importance for everyone who want to make friend. When I do the wrong thing, good friend will tell me why I am wrong and how can I correct them rather than saying nothing. In my view, economic condition just a secondary cause.
2. 经济条件相仿会对两人的友谊起到什么作用?是助推作用,还是阻碍作用?请结合实例简述。

Secondly, if two men have the same economic condition, it can propel their friendship. For instance, you may follow your rich friend's decision when you buy some food and drink for a picnic because of your poverty. Even more, your friend will not call you when he want to travel a place or watch a film. In that case, you loss a lot of chances to talk to them and improve your friendship.

Admittedly, we can't stress the importance of economic condition. I remember Confius, greatest Chinese philosopher and educator, commented," Gold will not buy anthing."

You maybe have more money than your good friend, whereas sincerity and equality are of abvious advantage, as you have a real friend.
