Mr. Lang worked in a factory. As a driver, he was busy but he was paid much. His wife was an able woman and did all the housework.

When we don’t understand each other’s language, we can talk with the help of signs.
A Frenchman was once travelling in England. He could not speak English at all. One day he went into a restaurant and sat down at a table. When the waiter came, he opened his mouth, put his fingers in it, and took out again. He wanted to say . “Bring me something to eat.”
The waiter soon brought him a cup of tea. The man moved his head from side to side. The waiter understood him and took the tea away. In a moment he came with a cup of coffee. But the man again refused it. He shook his head whenever the waiter brought him something to drink, for drinks are not food.
When the man was going away, another man came in. This man saw the waiter , and he put his hand on his stomach. That was enough. In a few minutes there was a large plate of meat and vegetables on the table in front of him.
So you see, we cannot understand the language of signs as well as we can understand the language of words.

Friendship is of vital importance for all of us. We need help, also give help to others. In modern times, people pay more attention for relations and connections. A man of charm, who power lies in his ability, has many friends.
As life is full of conflicts, I need friends to support and help us out of difficulties. Our friends gave us warnings against danger. Our friends offer us advices about how to dealing with various situations. Closely friends share not only with our joys but also our sorrows.
With friendship, life is happy and harmony. Without friendship, life is sad and unlucky.
