Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.
No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well, which doesn’t mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away, then we feel very sad. We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again, and we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.
There’s more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people if those don’t have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares, if someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself and stay healthier.

Every summer a great many students travel to other countries looking for work and adventure. Most of the 26 are in seasonal work, mainly connected with wourism and 27
The pay is usually poor, but most people work abroad for the 28 of travel. You can pick grapes on farms in France, entertain kids on American summer camps, and, of course, there are 29 jobs in hotels and restaurants.
But it is not easy now to find work. “ 30 you speak the language of the country well, there will be very few openings,” says Althea Ellis, an adviser in 31 for students.
“If you work with a family in Italy, you’ll have to speak Italian. When you wash dishes in a restaurant in Pairs, the owner will expect you to speak 32 . British students only have a language 33 for jobs in the USA and Australia.”

The two teachers with the children had never been 35 .One child lost his passport; another became seriously ill and was 36 home; the whole group was thrown out of one hotel because of the 37 they made, and what’s worse, Sarah herself was robbed on her only 38 evening of the entire trip. “ I did visit a lot of new places,” she says,“ but it wasn’t worth it. The pay was 39 and it really was a 24-hour-a-day job. The kids never slept!”
“The troubles is, students expect to have a(n) 40 time of it.” Althea Ellis points out. “After all, they see it as a 41 .In practice, 42 ,you have to work hard. At the same time, all vacation work is casual (临时的) work. You’ll have a job when the hotel, the restaurant, or the campsite is busy. In the other words, you’ll work if it’s convenient for the company that 43 you. But you have 44 employment rights. As soon as the holiday season 45 ,they’ll get rid of you.”
