121Oral Practice
- Is it wise to make friends online?
122 Voice 1
- In my opinion, making friends online is safe if
you treat them properly. Even though you should
treat friends online sincerely, you have to be
cautious. I met my girlfriend through the net. At
first, neither of us thought that we would fall
in love. As time went by, we came to understand
each other better and better. Finally we decided
to meet in person. Many others share our story
and the experience.
123 Voice 2
- I usually meet new friends through relatives or
other friend introduction. Its not at all safe
to look for friends online. Many people,
including children, teenagers, even adults with a
lot of social experience, have been seriously
cheated and deeply hurt by people they met
online. This tells us that we must be careful.
Though many people online are perfectly normal,
it takes only meet one bad person to put
ourselves in danger.
124Dictation
- What Will Matter ?
- Ready or not, some day it will all come to an
end. There will be no more sunrises, no days, no
hours or minutes. All the things you collected,
whether treasured or forgotten, will pass to
someone else. Your wealth, fame and temporal
power will shrivel to irrelevance. It will not
matter what you owned or what you were owed. Your
grudges, resentments, frustrations, and
jealousies will finally disappear. So, too, your
hopes, ambitions, plans, and to-do lists will all
expire. The wins and losses that once seemed so
important will fade away. It won't matter where
you came from, or on what side of the tracks you
lived.
125Dictation
- It won't matter whether you were beautiful or
brilliant. Your gender, skin color, ethnicity
will be irrelevant. So what will matter? How will
the value of your days be measured? What will
matter is not what you bought, but what you
built not what you got, but what you gave. What
will matter is not your success, but your
significance. What will matter is not what you
learned, but what you taught. What will matter is
every act of integrity, compassion, courage and
sacrifice that enriched, empowered or encouraged
others to emulate your example.
126Dictation
- What will matter is not your competence, but
your character. What will matter is not how many
people you knew, but how many will feel a lasting
loss when you're gone. What will matter is not
your memories, but the memories of those who
loved you. What will matter is how long you will
be remembered, by whom and for what. Living a
life that matters doesn't happen by accident.
It's not a matter of circumstance but of choice.
Choose to live a life that matters.
127Dictation
- A true friend is someone /who stays with you for
life. /The sharing of intimacies, / including our
fears as well as our dark dreams,/ is the surest
way to deepen friendships. / What are some of the
obstacles to friendship? / The greatest is the
temptation to expect too much too soon. / Deep
relationships take time. / Another difficulty is
the selfish tendency to think one "possesses" the
other, / with an almost exclusive right to his
time and attention. / Similarly, friendships
require mutual actions. / In brief, you must give
as much as you take. / Unless you spend
reasonable time together, / talking on the phone,
writing letters, doing things together, /
friendships will "wither". / As in all
interpersonal relationships , / success depends
on clarity of purpose, / openness to others, /
and a willingness to experiment.
128Fine Thoughts in Fine Words

(friendship) redoubles joys, and cuts grieves in
halves. - Francis Bacon

sever. - T.S. Eliot
