It's not necessary to be the same.My best friend larry is quite different from me.He is taller and nore outgoing than me.We both like sports,but he plays tennis better,so he always wins.However,Larry often helps to bring out the best in me.so I'm getting better at tennis.Larry is much less hard-working,though,I always get better grades than he does,so maybe I should help him more.

I don't really care if my friends are the same as me or different.My favorte saying is,"A true friend reaches for your hand and touches your heart."My best friend Carol is really kind and very funny.in fact,she's funnier than anyine I know.I broke my arm last year but she made me laugh and feel better.We can talk about and share everything.I know she cares about me because she's always there to listen.

1.That'swhy I like reading books and I study harder in class.
这便是我喜欢看书而且在理班上学习更加努力的原因。
That's why……可视为一个固定的句式，表示“这便是为什么……”、“这就是……的原因”，why的后面一般接句子。如：
That's why he was late this morning.
这就是她今天早上迟到的原因。
2.……you don't need a lat of them as long as they're good.
（朋友）不在多而贵在好。
些句话的字面意思是“只要朋友好，你并一须要许多”，实则表达了汉语“（朋友）不在多而贵在好”这样意思。此句中lomg为副词，与as……as构成一个固定搭配as long as，用来链接句子，表达“只要……”。如：
We can talk about this as long as you want.
只要你想（谈），我们就可以谈谈这事。
It's fine as long aas you're happy.
只要你高兴就好。
2.as long as 只要；既然
例如：
I don't mind as long as it doesn't rain.
只要不下雨就行了。
As long as live,I will help you
只要我活着，我都会帮助你。
as long as  和……一样长  例如：
His hair is as long as yours .
他的头发跟你的一样长。
（as……as前是系动词，则as……as中间应用形容词原级。）
He did as carefully as you
他做的跟你一样认真。
（as……as其前如果是行为动词，则as……as中间应用副词原级。）
一些带有as……as结构的常见短语归纳
as busy as a bee       像蜜蜂一样忙碌
as easy as ABC         像ABC一样容易
as deep as a well      像井一样深
as light as a feather  像羽毛一样轻
as soft as butter      像黄油一样软
as rich as a jew       像犹太人一样富裕
6.My best friend helps to bring out the best in me.bring out 是一个习语，意思是“使显现；使表现出”。bring out the best/worst in someone意为“把某人最好（最坏）的一面表现或显露出来”。又如：
In a basketbaal or soccer game,it's important for the players to play together and bring out the best in each other.
在篮球或足球比赛中，队员我密切协作，使大伙儿都发挥到极致是很重要的。
Only by rewarding success can you bring out the best in your employees.
只有通过奖励才能激发出员工的最佳潜能。
Does this mean love doesn't bring out the best in us?
那么，这是否意味着，爱并不能让我们做到最好？
Take a look at your frendships.Do they bring out the best in you ?
审视一下你的友谊，他们让你表现出最好的自我了吗？
3.I don't really care if my friends are the same as me or different.
此句中if不是“如果”的意思，而是“是否”的意思。另外，if之后所引导的句子是主句I don't care的谓语动词care的宾语，故称作“定语从句”如：
I don't care if he like it not --I'm coming!
我不管他喜欢还是不喜欢——我会来的！
Can you tell me if I'm right,Mr.Green?
格林先生，你能告诉我我是否正确吗？
5.I know she cares about me because she's always there to listen.
be there表示“在别人须要帮助时，时刻准备伸手相助”，也可以译为“随叫随到；不离……左右”。此结构之后还可以接for somebody。例如：
My parents were a;ways there for me shen ai was growing up.
在我成长的过程中，我的父母总是随时给予我帮助。
she didn't worry too much because she know he would always be there for her.
她并不是太担心，因为也知道他总会随时施以援手的。
No matter what happens,I'll always be there for you!
不管发生什么，我永远都会在你的身边！
I will always be there for you,I know you will be standing here tomorrow.
我永远会在那里，因为我知道你明天会在这里。
