（单词翻译）

What friends do we need?
 
我们需要什么朋友？
 
A Polar Opposite
 
和你世界观不同的朋友
 
We humans are hard-wired to get together in group sand attack outsiders — the human pack mentality1, if you will. If you only develop friendships with others who follow the same beliefs, customs, and values as you do, chances are you’re somewhat detached2 from the rest of the world, and you're more likely to perpetuate3 stereotypes4 on anyone who holds a different world view from you.
 
Instead of constantly surrounding yourself with like-minded people, try to break out of your comfort zone and befriend peoplewho hold opposing views. They will help open your eyes to different world views and you'll learn to accept people who don't see the world exactly the way yousee it.
