Would  you  like  me  to  be  your  friend?
我可以和你做朋友嗎?

 

  Kathy began a job as an elementary school  counselor and she was eager to help.

  One day, during recess, Kathy noticed a young girl standing by herself on one side of the playing field while the rest of the kids were playing a game of soccer.

  A while later, Kathy walked over to the young girl and offered, "Would you like me to be your friend?"

  The girl looked at Kathy suspiciously, then said hesitantly, "Okay, I guess so..."

                    

  "Why are you standing here all alone?" asked Kathy.

  "Because," the little girl said with great exasperation, "I'm  the goalie  !"
