Скажи мне, кто твой друг... 30-08-2010 14:21 к комментариям - к полной версии - понравилось!



[показать]Привет! Итак, до конца лета осталась лишь пара дней, грядёт новый учебный год (у большинства), в связи с чем предлагаю забраться в свой пассивный словарный запас, вспомнить грамматику и активизировать все свои знания английского языка, забытые и убранные в долгий ящик на лето.
Давайте поговорим о дружбе? Предлагаю ответить на несколько вопросов, которые касаются дружбы, отношений и человеческих качеств. Было бы здорово, если бы каждый подошёл к заданию творчески, а не отвечал односложно. Для вашего же блага : )
Помните, что разрешается допускать ошибки! Даже грубые! Активисты-добровольцы Вас вежливо поправят и объяснят почему так, а не иначе. Главное - не стесняться и не бояться. Мы все здесь учимся!
В общем, давайте поговорим?... Есть кто живой, м? : )

Questions:
1) Who is your best friend?
2) How did you meet?
3) What do you do with your friend?
4) Tell me the way you make friends with others and you think what people should be your friends?
5) Do you think it is easy to make friends in Russia?
6) What do you think the difference between adults and children making friend?
7) How do children make friends?
8) What is the most important thing in friendship?
9) What is the second important thing in friendship?
10) What makes friendship break up?
11) Do you believe in friendship between a woman and a man?
12) How many friends do you have?
13) Do you consider yourself friendly?
14) How similar are you to your friends?
15) What characteristics do you look for in a friend?
16) Describe one of your closest friends?
17) How do you maintain a good friendship?
18) When and where do you often hang out with your friends?
19) Where do you think is a good place to meet new friends?

Hmmm… interesting… we have met when I was born. 3. We are doing everything: we gossip, laughing, crying, talking, support each other, argue about smth 4. Well I can’t be friend with each person. It’s difficult for me let someone in my life. This person must be intelligent, cherry, sincere, faithful, generous, modest. I don’t like two-faced person. This person must have fire in his eyes and soul. 5. I’m not from Russia, but I think that human can have frinds all around the world. 6. That’s ok.

Mother is very helpful, always she understands me and helps me. I love her so much, she always have new information for me. She is like an angel. 17.

1) Well, my best friend is my classmate, who I know for more than 11 years. We are like to peas in a pod, same interests, same style, sometimes it's hard. :D 2) We've met at school, because we're studying in one class. 3) I can't say that we spend lots of time together. But we always help each other when there are some difficult moments in our life. We alaways go shopping in the end of summer to buy everything for school. It's like a tradition. 4) I'm quite friendly person and I'm open to new contacts. It's interesting that I have many foreign friends. We haven't seen each other in reality but we really connect with each other. I like open-minded, honest and trustworthy persons. 5) As the previous girl, I'm not from Russia too. It's hard to say, actually, so I better leave this question out. 6) Well, children need friends to play, I suppose. But adults need friend on whom they may rely on. 7) They come to each other, smile and everyone is happy. :D 8) Trust. 9) Sincerity 10) Envy destroy every relationship. 11) I believe in such friendship, if only a man is your brother. :) 12) One best friend and 3-4 good friends. 13) As I've already said before, I'm a friendly person. 14) Well, my best friend and I have same taste, same liking for fashion. There were occurences when we came to school in similar clothes but we didn't arranged such things. 15) Honesty, faith, helpfulnes. 16) She will always help and support me. 17) If you want to have a strong friendship, you always need to keep up good terms. Like go shopping together, go to the concert. Share common interests and secrets. 18) We usually go for a walk or go to the concerts. 19) Well... I suppose best friends are made in school.
1. I have 3 best friends, one girl is from my old school, and 2 others study with me in college (or "at college"??) 2. I think it's easy to understand from the first answer)) In eather cases it was in September, the 1-st (how is "школьная линейка" in English? "School ruler"? o_0) 3. I hang out, talk, laugh, skate, gossip, etc. with them. 4. To be honesty i don't remember, how i made friend with my best ones)) These people should be helpful, cheerful, broad-minded. 5. I'm not from Russia 6. Adults are not so faithful as children. So it becomes harder to make friend with somebody, when you are 40-50 years old... But it's my opinion 7. Easily) They are faithful) 8. Love. With love will be support, faith, etc. 9. Devotion 10. Betrayal, egoism 11. I think that man and woman can be good fellows, but not best friends 12. 10, they are the closest) I can tell them everything 13. I'm friendly) I have many fellows, and I suppose no enemies 14. With each of my friends i have something in common. But i veri similar with one - Alena) Sometimes we can read thoughts of each other, we have the same fears, ideas, we can say some phrases together 15. Sense of humor, faith, originality, tenderness 16. One of my best friends - Alena. She is beautiful, average height, brunette with brown eyes. She is sometimes shy, but she is helpful and have many friends, because she is kind. She don't like to demonstrate her emotions. She is broad-minded, she writes a book, she is good in programming. My friend likes anime, friendship bracelets and many other things. Her sense of humor is unusual, but i often understand her)) 17. I'm interested in their life, opinion, tastes. We always have themes for talking. I try to help, understand them, lend an ear, move to laughter if they are sad. 18. Park, cinema, bouling, shops 19. I think everywhere) One girl makes friends even in toilet Thanks. Could you correct my mistakes?

1. My best friend is a wonderful girl with sunny smile. 2. Once upon a time when the sun was shining brightly in the sky and birds were singing merrily among branches, I saw a red-haired girl sitting on a bench. I recognize her at once, because before that meeting we corresponded about one month through internet. 3. When we are together we enjoy ourselves. 4. I am the one who believe that an old friend is worth two new ones. Nobody likes two-faced and unfaithful people, so I am not an exception. If you are open-hearted, sincere and amicable person, I am sure, we will find a common language. 5. I am not from Russia but I think it doesn’t matter. If you are ready to find time for people, to be interested in their success or failures it won’t be difficult for you to find new friends. 6. The naivety of a child is a priceless thing. It’s a pity, but when we grow up we lose this quality. The experience of life teaches us not to be so kind towards everyone. But in the eyes of a baby everything is like a miracle, that’s why, children can easily make friends. 7. It’s very simple! They come to another person, smile and say: «Will you be my friend? or I want you to be my friend! 8. I think the trust is the most import thing in a good friendship. 9. If it’s possible to say – Readiness to help, to give advice, to support, to listen when it’s necessary. 10. Envy, probably, is the worst quality and the main reason why friendship break up. 11. Honestly, I believe in a friendship between woman and a man, but I have already been disappointed for so many times. 12. I can count them on the fingers of one hand. 13. I can't say that I am very friendly but, nevertheless, I am always glad to meet new people. 14. True friends have to supplement each other. I consider that my friends and I have many common things, such as interests, hobby, etc. 15. The characteristics that you’ve mentioned in “Positive” :)) 16. Jane a girl with deep green eyes, blond-brown hair and gentle voice. She believes in power of her dreams. She wants to travel around the world. We are both Pisces so we can understand each other without wasting words. 17. Perhaps, there is no need to maintain a good friendship, just be who you really are and people will turn toward you. 18. When we have spare time we can go for a walk, or have a chat in a cafe. 19. It’s not important where you will meet smb. who it will be that's the mater… Thank You, Rucci, for interesting questions !
