中间段1:
There are many qualities that make up a good neighbor, but the most essential of these are friendliness, helpfulness, and being considerate. A good neighbor must be friendly so that you can establish good relations with him or her, while being helpful makes the neighbor much more of an aid in everyday life. Finally, being considerate makes a neighbor much more pleasant to live next to, as an over-friendly and over-helpful neighbor who doesn’t consider your circumstances is rather unhelpful.
中间段2：
A friendly neighbor who is horribly inept is still not very much help. While friendliness is essential, simple good-will is not enough to make a good neighbor. If you suffered from some natural disaster, or some accident, a helpful neighbor would be able to do more things than a neighbor who was concerned, but unable to help. For example, if your car wouldn’t start, imagine your neighbor didn’t know how to use the jumper cables. Despite good intentions, your neighbor might end up harming you or your vehicle. A capable and friendly neighbor who could help you with many things that you might have trouble doing alone would be of far greater help.
中间段3：
Of course, while friendliness and capabilities are important, without a mutual understanding and consideration, any neighbor can be horribly frustrating. In the modern world, where your neighbor could be of a #pletely different culture, understanding and consideration are very important. Imagine a neighbor who happens to be a five star chef invites you over for dinner. Though he certainly has the appropriate talents for cooking, and the good will to invite you over, if he failed to consider your culture or personal preferences, you might not example the meal at all. For example, if you were Jewish and followed your religious limitations on foods, you wouldn’t be able to eat many different kinds of foods. Thus, without consideration for your culture and situation, all of the good-will your neighbor might bring would be useless.
