1. Listen to Hung`s opinions about online friends. Answer the questions.
1. What can Hung learn from his online friends? Why?

3. Why can he save money?



4. What is the most important benefit of having online friends?


5. What does Hung dislike about online friendships?
Sometimes he doesn`t know for sure who these friends really are, as they may not use their real names.
Hung can have more knowledge of different cultures and lifestyles because his online friends come from different places around the world.
He can contact his friends whenever he wants, as long as they are online.
Because he doesn`t have to spend money on dinners, parties or cinema tickets.
The most important benefit of having online friends is that he can end a relationship quickly.
Well, there are many advantages of having online friends. First, they can be anywhere in the world, so I can learn about different cultures and lifestyles. Distance does not matter, as all I need is a computer. Second, I can contact them whenever I wish - as long as they are online, and I can end the conversation easily when I have other things to do. What`s more, I can save a lot of money as there`ll be no dinners, parties or get-togethers. I don`t have to spend money on things like food and drinks or cinema tickets. Most importantly, I can quickly end a relationship when I don`t feel comfortable with the person any more.
The only thing I don`t like about this kind of friendship is that sometimes I don`t know for sure who these friends really are. They may not use their real names and post other people`s photos.
Audio script
- Do you have any online friends?
+ If yes, do you want to meet them face to face?
+ If no, do you want to make friends online?
+ Give reasons.
2. Discuss the following questions in groups.
Yes, I do. I have a lot of friends online. I really want to meet them face to face because I think friends must get together and share joys as well as sorrows in life. But I can’t meet many of them because they live far away.
No, I don’t have any friend online because I think they are untrustworthy. I don`t know for sure who these friends really are. They may not use their real names and post other people`s photos. They may also get online for fun and may not consider me as a friend, too.
CULTURE
1. Read the text about dating around the world, and complete the information in the table below.
Dating around the world
Having a relationship with someone is important to people around the world; however, dating is different from culture to culture. Here are some examples.
Group dating is popular among young people in Europe and Australia. Groups as large as 30 people take part in events, such as going camping or having a party. This is seen as a safe way to spend time together, and to help to ease tension because people feel more comfortable in the company of friends before deciding whether to go on a one-to-one date.
In Singapore, since many young people stay single, the government has tried its best to encourage dating. Dating services are offered to single people. One of them is speed dating, in which singles will spend a few minutes talking to one person before moving on to meet the next one.
Online dating is a common way of matchmaking in the United States. Internet companies are now offering a service called `online dating assistant’ to help busy people to find a partner. An assistant helps customers to build their profiles, selects potential matches, and then sends several emails to the possible matches until the two people agree to meet face to face.
