Everyone has a number of acquaintances, but no one has many friends, for true friendship is not common, and there are many people who seem to be incapable of it. For a friendship to be close and lasting, both the friends must have some very special qualities.

The first quality is unselfishness. A person who is concerned only with his own interests and feelings cannot be a true friend. Friendship is a two-sided affair; it lives by give-and-take, and no friendship can last lone which is all give on one side and all take on the other.

Constancy is the second quality. Some people do not seem to be constant. They take up an interest with enthusiasm, but they are soon tired of it and feel the attraction of some new object. Such changeable and uncertain people are incapable of a lifelong friendship.

Loyalty is the third quality. Two friends must be loyal to each other, and they must know each other so well that there can be no suspicions between them. We do not think much of people who readily believe rumours and gossip about their friends. Those who are easily influenced by rumours can never be good friends.

Trust is perhaps the fourth quality. There must be mutual trust between friends, so that each can feel safe when telling the other his or her secrets. There are people who cannot keep a secret, either of their own or of others’. Such people will never keep a friend long.

Lastly, there must be a perfect sympathy between friends - sympathy with each other’s aims, likes, joys, sorrows, pursuits and pleasures. Where such mutual sympathy does not exist, friendship is impossible.

Mọi người ai cũng có một số người quen biết, nhưng không ai có nhiều bạn cả. Bởi vì tình bạn thân thiết thật sự thì không có nhiều; và có nhiều người dường như không thể có được tình bạn. Để cho tình bạn được thân thiết và bền vững, cả hai người bạn phải có một số phẩm chất rất đặc biệt.

Phẩm chất đầu tiên là tính không ích kỉ. Một người chỉ biết quan tâm đến lợi ích và cảm nghĩ của riêng mình không thể là một người bạn thật sự được. Tình bạn là mối quan hệ hai phía, nó tồn tại dựa trên cơ sở cho và nhận, và không có tình bạn nào có thể trường tồn, nếu như chỉ có một bên cho và một bên nhận.

Tính kiên định là phẩm chất thứ hai của tình bạn. Một số người dường như không có tính kiên định. Họ hăng hái theo đuổi một sở thích, nhưng chẳng bao lâu sau họ cảm thấy chán nó và bắt đầu cảm thấy bị cuốn hút bởi một mục tiêu mới nào đó. Những người không lập trường và không kiên định như vậy thì không thể có được tình bạn bền lâu được.

Lòng trung thành là phẩm chất quan trọng thứ ba. Hai nsười bạn phải trung thành với nhau, và họ phải biết nhau quá tường tận đến nỗi không có điều gì nghi ngờ giữa họ. Chúng ta đừng nghĩ nhiều về những người sẵn sàng tin vào những lời đồn đại, những chuyện ngồi lê đôi mách nói xấu bạn bè. Những ai dễ dàng bị ảnh hưởng bởi những lời xì xào không thể nào là những người bạn tốt.

Sự tin tưởng có lẽ là phẩm chất thứ tư. Bạn bè phải có sự tin tưởng lẫn nhau để mỗi người có thể cảm thấy an toàn khi kể cho nhau về những bí mật riêng tư của mình, Nhưng lại có những người nhiều chuyện không thể giữ kín chuyển của mình hoặc của người khác. Những người như vậy sẽ khône bao giờ kết bạn dài lâu.

Cuối cùng, giữa bạn bè phải có sự cảm thông hoàn toàn, cảm thông vì mục đích, sở thích, niềm vui, nỗi buồn, mưu cầu và ước mơ của nhau. Và ở đâu không có sự thông cảm nhau, thì ở đó không có tình bạn.

haha

Mọi người đều có một số người quen, nhưng không ai có nhiều bạn bè, cho tình bạn thật sự là không phổ biến, và có rất nhiều người dường như không có khả năng đó. Đối với một tình bạn gần gũi và lâu dài, cả những người bạn phải có một số phẩm chất rất đặc biệt.

Chất lượng đầu tiên là không ích kỷ. Một người chỉ quan tâm đến lợi ích và cảm xúc của riêng mình không thể là một người bạn thật sự. Tình bạn là một tình hai mặt; nó lives bởi cho và mất, và không có tình bạn có thể kéo dài duy nhất mà là tất cả cho một bên và tất cả đi vào khác.

Kiên trì là đặc tính thứ hai. Một số người dường như không được liên tục. Họ mất sự quan tâm với sự nhiệt tình, nhưng họ sẽ sớm mệt mỏi của nó và cảm thấy sự hấp dẫn của một số đối tượng mới. người thay đổi và không chắc chắn như vậy là không có khả năng của một tình bạn suốt đời.

Lòng trung thành là chất lượng thứ ba. Hai người bạn phải trung thành với nhau, và họ phải biết nhau rất rõ rằng không thể có mối nghi ngờ giữa họ. Chúng tôi không nghĩ rằng nhiều người đã dễ dàng tin những tin đồn và tin đồn về bạn bè của họ. Những người dễ bị ảnh hưởng bởi những tin đồn không bao giờ có thể là những người bạn tốt.

Niềm tin là có lẽ là chất lượng thứ tư. Có phải là tin tưởng lẫn nhau giữa những người bạn, để mỗi người có thể cảm thấy an toàn khi nói sự khác các bí mật của mình. Có những người không thể giữ bí mật, hoặc là của riêng mình hoặc của người khác. Những người như vậy sẽ không bao giờ giữ một người bạn lâu.

Cuối cùng, phải có một sự đồng cảm hoàn hảo giữa những người bạn - đồng cảm với mục tiêu của nhau, thích, niềm vui, nỗi buồn, theo đuổi và những thú vui. Trường thông cảm lẫn nhau như vậy không tồn tại, tình bạn là không thể.

5.

On New Year's Eve Brazilian people like to wear red and                         underpants more than other colours.

Spain
At midnight on New Year's Eve, it's traditional in Spain to quickly eat 12 grapes - one at each stroke of the clock. They believe that each grape brings good luck for one month of the next year. In Madrid, Barcelona, and other Spanish cities, many people gather in the main squares to eat their grapes together and pass around bottles of cava - a type of Spanish wine.
Belarus
New Year holiday starts in Belarus at the end of December and last until 7 January. During this holiday, still-unmarried women play games to guess who will marry in the New Year. In one game, a pile of corn is placed before each woman, and a rooster is let go; whichever pile the rooster goes to first reveals who will be the first to marry. In another game, a married woman hides certain items around her house for her unmarried friends to find; the woman who finds bread will marry a rich husband; the one who finds a ring will marry a handsome one.
Estonia
In Estonia you celebrate the New Year not by dancing but by eating. It's traditional for people here to try to eat seven times on New Year's Day. They believe that this will bring them abundant food in the coming year. However, in Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, people try to enjoy as much alcohol as food.
Central and South America
In some countries like Brazil, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Venezuela, it's considered lucky to wear special underwear on New Year's Eve. In cities like São Paulo and La Paz, market vendors start displaying bright and colourful underpants a few days before the holiday. The most popular colours are red and yellow. People believe that red brings love in the coming year, and yellow brings money.

Sports and games make our bodies strong and keep us healthy.But these are not their only uses. They give us valuable practice in making eyes, brain and muscles work together. For example, in tennis, our eyes see the ball coming, judge its speed and direction and pass this information on to the brain. The brain then has to decide what to do, and send its orders to the muscle of the arms legs, and so on. So tennis helps train the co-ordination among eyes, brain arms, and legs.

Sports and games are also useful for character training. In their lessons at school, boys and girls may learn about such virtues as unsefishness, courage discipline, and love of one's country. In sports and games a pupil can really practise these virtues.

LIFE IN AN ISLAND

Off the west coast of Scotland, there are many small island communities. Life in these communities is very different from life in the big cities. People from the cities often say that life in the islands is slow and boring. But the island people tell a different story.

Many families live by fishing or farming, and people usually have more than one job. Many families have rooms for tourists who come to visit the islands in summer. The tourists go walking and fishing and play sports. Sometimes they study Gaelic, the local language. And they stay in a 'bed and breakfast' with a local family or in one of the small island hotels. In the long summer evenings, people meet and talk together. They tell stories of where they live and what they do.

The children on the islands go to small local schools. They have their classes in English and Gaelic. Sometimes there are only eight or ten children in one school! When they are twelve, they go to secondary school in a bigger town on the island. When they finish that school, they decide whether to go to university in a big city, or to stay and work on the island.

1. City people and island people have the same opinion about island life. ____

2. People on the islands mainly do one job. ____

Many families live by fishing or farming, and people usually have more than one job. Many families have rooms for tourists who come to visit the islands in summer. The tourists go walking and fishing and play sports. Sometimes they study Gaelic, the local language. And they stay in a 'bed and breakfast' with a local family or in one of the small island hotels. In the long summer evenings, people meet and talk together. They tell stories of where they live and what they do.

The children on the islands go to small local schools. They have their classes in English and Gaelic. Sometimes there are only eight or ten children in one school! When they are twelve, they go to secondary school in a bigger town on the island. When they finish that school, they decide whether to go to university in a big city, or to stay and work on the island.
