It is universally acknowledged that honesty is one of the most important human virtues. Nearly all the relationships are based on honesty and trust among people. However, white lies are acceptable under some circumstances, in a bid to realize certain purposes.

Not thoroughly being honest to our friends can relieve us from deeper grief sometimes. I still remember the day when I had to leave the Netherlands because my exchange period came to an end. That was gut-wrenching, since I had to say goodbye to all of my friends there and leave a part of my memory I treasured most behind. Long before my departure, Phoebe, my best friend there, asked me several times about my exact time of leaving, because she wanted to see me off. But what I thought was leaving alone without telling anyone. For me, it was much sadder to just see my best friends-especially the ones who spent the most time with me and brought me a lot of happiness-leave me at the airport. So I kept telling her that I had not yet decided when to leave, although I had already booked the ticket. I cannot say whether it was appropriate or not, but I did this because I didn't want to hurt both of us. Just as a famous writer Shiqiu Liang once said, “if you love your friend, don't see him off at the airport. That will hurt both you and him; pick him up at the airport when he comes to visit you next time instead, that is the best way.”

In other time, besides, there is just no need to tell the truth to friends because it will ruin their confidence and initiative sometimes. Economics of the European Union was a course that attracts large number of exchange students. It required us to give presentations on the given papers every week during the tutorials. Since we came from different countries and had totally different knowledge backgrounds of European Union, some of us ran into problems when understanding several parts of the course. This would directly relate to the quality of our presentations, since these papers were the extension of what we learned during the lectures. Lucas, who came from Brazil and worked very hard not only during class but in his free time, got stuck at some points. Obviously, he did not do well in the presentation and even madesome opposite conclusions on financial infrastructure. But everyone saw his efforts and determination. After his presentation, we all gathered around him and congratulated him, telling him that he did a very good job and the presentation was a success. For us, it was better to hide the truth and encourage him, which might exert some positive impact on him and made him confident.

As a consequence, telling white lies to friends sometimes is appropriate and necessary.

在这篇文章中，结构很简单，作者就举了两个例子来说明。第二个例子很老套，但是第一个例子比较新颖。像这种抽象型的题目，很难列出提纲，所以用具体的例子来写是很好的办法。而且，这种例子一般从头到尾都是一般过去时，因为都是发生过的事情。

那如何区分单一型和抽象型的题目呢?其实，只要是不能列出提纲的，都是抽象型的题目，那就简单粗暴的用具体例子来写吧。其实像一下这道题目，也是抽象型的。
