I always use summer holidays for some easy work on the subjectsthat I need for my future studies. I improve my English, read literature and some historical materials. This work brings benefit and pleasure: reading books and listening to English songs, watching documentaries and training your memory while memorizing some verses, English phrases or dates. I am glad that my mother has taught me to do it easily and without any nervous tension. If you treat this work as a game or an amusement you can enjoy a part of the summer and facilitate for your future busy learning season.

Friendship is one of the most important things in our life.

Дружба – одна из самых важных вещей в нашей жизни.

It may be as essential as love.

Он может быть также важна как и любовь.

 Friendship means devotion, faith, complete trust and unselfishness.

Дружба – это преданность, вера, полное доверие и бескорыстие.

A true friend is a person who supports you in times you need it.

Настоящий друг – это человек, который тебя поддержит в те моменты, когда ты в этом нуждаешься.

A true friend always tries to understand you, shows kindness and sympathy even if he hasn’t  similar tastes, interests and life philosophies.

Настоящий друг всегда старается тебя понять, показывает свою доброту и симпатию, даже если у вас разные вкусы, интересы и жизненная философия.

A true friend forgives you if you have hurt his feelings.

Настоящий друг прощает тебя, если ты его обидел.

 

I know that it’s not easy to find a real friendship.  

Я знаю, что нелегко найти настоящую дружбу.

 

It takes time and effort, but true friendship is worth of it.

Это занимает время и много усилий, но это того стоит.

 

As the proverb says, 'A true friend is the best possession'.
 

Как говорит пословица, 'настоящий друг- это лучшее приобретение'.
