MOBILITY AND FRIENDSHIP
Americans are geographically mobile and learn to develop friendship easily and quickly.
Approximately one of every five Amerian families move every year. People relocate because they
begin their new jobs, attend distant colleges, get married, have children or simply want to change their
lives. Perhaps as consequence of these, people form and end friendships quickly. Students attending
two or three universities during their undergraduate and graduate years may change their circles of
friends several times.
Relationships based on a common activity may face or end when activity ends. Students might meet
in classes and remain friends for the duration of the course and then stop seeing each other after the
final examination. The same holds true for neighbors who are the closest of friends until one moves
away. In these friendships, shared daily experiences form the foundation for the friendship. Enduring
their friendships develop when individuals have similar interests and a common outlook on life. The
high rate of mobility in the United States can explain a great deal about transient friendships.
It is easy to be misled (b hiu sai) by instant friendship which may appear to be deep and personal
but are really superficial (hi ht). Friendship and friendliness are not synonymous (ng ngha).
Friendliness is characterized much of American daily interaction but is not always and indication of
friendship. Strangers may share life histories without any intention of pursuing a relationship.
Characterizing instant friendship is the appearance of two people becoming close but, in reality, there
is no strong bond between them. Brief encounters do not always imply desire for further contact. Many
people frequently smile or say, "Have a nice day!" or "See you later," or even extend an invitation as
part of a cultural pattern of politeness. Such expressions do not always suggest an offer of continued
friendship.

UNIT 3: A PARTY

BIRTHDAY PARTY
A birthday party is a celeberation that occurs to celebrate the birth of the person being honored. The
birthday party is the most celebrated event in the world. While a child's party is usually at home and
consists of soft drinks and sweet foods as well as savory, adults' often take place in clubs with a butter
of savory food and alcohol.
In Western culture, particularly in the United States, birthday parties are often accompanied by
colourful decorations. A traditional birthday cake is often served with candles that are to be blown out
after a "birthday wish" has been made. This wish is usually kept secret, and represents some desire for
the time between the current birthday and the next. While the birthday cake is brought to the table, the
song "Happy Birthday" is generally sung. A birthday party may be an event planned carefully through
a special agency or through a party service.
A HOUSE-WARMING PARTY
A house-warming party is held on the occasion of moving into a new residence. It is an occasion for
the hosts to represent their new home to their friends, and sometimes for friends to give gifts to furnish
the new home. House-warming parties are generally informal; usually there are no planned activities
besides a possible tour.
AN OFFICE PARTY
Office parties are events held by corporations or businesses often either at the site of the business or
in high class venues. These celebrations can coincide with some change the business is making, or the
undertaking of a new enterprise that the business wants support or publicity for. Office parties are also
credited with boosting the general morale of those employed at the business. This can result in better
temperament in the workplace and higher productivity.

Dear John,
Thank you so much for your lovely photograph. You looked great in the ceremony. You want to
know my latest news, don't you? I'm going to tell you one of the most embarrassing experiences that
has happened in my life.
Last week, I was invited to a birthady party of one of my close friends, Fiona. I was excited about
going there. I went to a gift shop and chose a lovely present for her. Then I ran home and put the
present on the corner of the desk. The time for the party was coming, so I got dressed and hurried to
Fiona's house. On getting there, I saw some of my friends standing at the door giving Fiona cards,
flowers, and gifts. I didn't notice that I hadn't brought the present with me. When Fiona called me, I
realized that I forgot one big thing. "Oh, my god. I don't take my gift with me. What should I do?"
Some of my friends looked at me with a little surprise, so I felt very embarrassed and couldn't say
anything. Finally, I tried to keep calm and told her that I had forgotten the present at home and I would
send her later. You know I have never been in a situation like that. You can imagine how I felt at that
time.
Since then I have learned that I must be very careful and well-prepared before going to a party.

In the United States, friendships can be close, constant, intense, generous and real, yet fade away in
a short time if circumstances change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas
greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while - then no more. If the same two people
meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship where they left off and are
delighted.
In the United States, you can feel free to visit people's homes, share their holidays, or enjoy their
lives without fear that they are taking on a lasting obligation. Do not hesitate to accept hospitality
because you can not give it in return. No one will expect you to do so for they know you are far from
home. Americans will enjoy welcoming you and be pleased if you accept their hospitality easily.
Once you arrived there, the welcome will be full, warm, and real. Most visitors find themselves
readily invited into many homes there. In some countries it is considered inhospitable to entertain at
home, offering what it felt as only home cooked food, not "doing something for your guests." It is felt
that restaurant entertaining shows most respect and welcome. Or for the other reasons, such as
crowded space, language difficulties, or family customs, outsiders are not invited into homes.
In the United States, both methods are used, but it is often considered more friendly to invite a
person to one's home then go to a public place, except in a pure business relationships. So, if your host
or hostess brings you home, do not feel that you are being shown inferior treatment.
Don't feel neglected if you do not find flowers awaiting you in your hotel room, either. Flowers are
very expensive there; hotel delivery is uncertain; arrival times are delayed, changed or cancelled - so
flowers are not customarily sent as a welcoming touch. Please do not feel unwanted! Outward signs
vary in different lands; the inward welcome is what matters. And this will be real.

hour. He set up a new world record in September 1935 at Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah. Bluebird, the car
he was driving, had been specially built for him. It was over 30 feet in length and had a 2,500 horsepower engine. Although Campbell reached a speed of over 304 miles per hour, he had great difficulty
in controlling the car because a type burst during the first run. After his attempt, Campbell was
disappointed to learn that his average speed had been 299 miles per hour. However, a few days later, he
was told that a mistake had been made. His average speed had been 301 miles per hour. Since that

Dear Dam Sen Cultural Park,
Among entertainment parks in Ho Chi Minh City, Dam Sen Cultural Park is considered one of the
best thanks to it diverse and original offerings.
At Dam Sen, there are many places of interest. The mythical stage is for the performance of
traditional southern music and theatrical works adapted from legends and myths. The ocean park inside
an artificial mountain 20 metres high displays hundreds of species of marine animals and plants. The
pearl-oyster farming centre shows the art of raising pearl-oysters and sells pearls.
The zoo has hundreds of bird and animal species, such as peacocks, yellow pythons, and Indochina
tigers. The European flower garden shows hundreds of temperate plant and flower species, such as
tulips, azaleas, and lavenders. The cactus garden has thousands of plants of more than 300 species. The
dinosaur park is also an interesting place to visit.
Dam Sen has various forms of entertainment. There are the roller coaster, superspeed slidding,
flying carpet, corcodile angling, and duck-boat rowing. As for sports, there are tennis, table tennis and
badminton. Visitors to Dam Sen can also enjoy sauna and massage services or do their shopping at a

guests can see ice-works or lanterns made in the form of well-known structures, or enjoy foods and
variety shows at tourist festivals.
With its facilities and abundant and offerings, I think Dam Sen is deserved to be a great place to
visit in Vietnam.
