2010年英語專業(yè)八級(jí)考試(漢譯英)

Translate the underlined part of the following text into English.

朋友關(guān)系的存續(xù)是以相互尊重為前提的，容不得半點(diǎn)強(qiáng)求、干涉和控制。朋友之情，情趣相投、脾氣對(duì)味則合、則交；反之，則離、則絕。朋友之間再熟悉、再親密，也不能隨便過頭、不恭不敬。不然，默契和平衡將被打破，友好關(guān)系將不復(fù)存在。每個(gè)人都希望擁有自己的私密空間，朋友之間過于隨便，就容易侵入這片禁區(qū)，從而引起沖突，造成隔閡。待友不敬，或許只是一件小事，卻可能埋下了破壞性的種子。維持朋友親密關(guān)系的最好辦法是往來有節(jié)，互不干涉。

參考譯文：

People tend to have contact and association with friends with common interests and compatible temperament. Otherwise, their friendship will become estranged or even come to an end. No matter how familiar and intimate people are to each other, it is still necessary for them to keep a certain degree of distance and show some mutual respect. Failure to do so will lead to the breaking up of cooperation and balance between them and thus the termination of their friendship. Everybody hopes to have their own privacy. This forbidden space will be easily intruded into due to excessive informality, resulting in conflicts and gaps. It might be a small thing to treat friends without respect. But such behavior may well be devastating in the long run. So the best way to maintain good friendship is to keep some distance and not to interfere with each other.
