th

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 (bị hiểu sai) by instant friendship which may appear to be deep and personal but are
really superficial (hời hợt). Friendship and friendliness are not synonymous (đồng nghĩa). 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.

minutes. I was listening to the airplane's radio. Other people were talking and exchanging information. The
stewardesses were serving drinks and food to the passengers. Looking out of the window, I saw masses of
dense black clouds flying past. Suddenly, lightening struck one of the engines. The plane dropped rapidly.
