Making friends
A
at home and abroad
Are you going on an exchange this year? Are you going
to stay with a host family? Do you want to make new
friends? Then you need to know how to be polite,
because being polite is different in different countries.
When you meet new people in Spain or France, you
usually kiss women twice on the cheek. Men shake
hands. People in the UK are more formal, so you
should shake hands when you meet a stranger.
In the UK, you don’t have to bring a present, like
flowers or chocolates, but people will think you are
very polite if you do. In Germany, Austria and the
UK, you mustn’t be late. It’s very rude. In Mexico, you
should be late – it’s normal. In the USA, you mustn’t
arrive early. In central Europe and Scandinavia, you
must take your shoes off when you arrive, so always
wear clean socks.
You mustn’t click your fingers in a restaurant in the UK.
In China, you must never click your fingers anywhere –
it’s very rude. However, it’s OK to burp in China, in fact
it’s polite, but in most European countries you mustn’t.
In France, you shouldn’t tell jokes at dinner. The French
take eating seriously.
In some countries it’s OK to interrupt a conversation,
but you shouldn’t in the UK or the USA. You should
wait until the other speakers have finished, especially
if they are older than you.
Wherever you go, have fun. And remember: if you want to
make friends, be polite!

Meeting friends can to be great fun, especially
when they are from other countries. You can
learn about their any traditions although
sometimes this can surprise you.
I will never forget of the time my Italian friend
Marco came to England to do a university
degree and decided to visit me. He came for
the lunch and my mum, knowing Marco loved
pasta, cooked ravioli. Marco ate a lot of and
then began to burp! My parents looked at me
in surprise and my brother started to laughing.
I didn’t know what to do.
Fortunately, Marco realized that something
was did wrong and he said, ‘Sorry. We usually
burp to show we have enjoyed to the meal.’
Really? I didn’t know that.
It sounds difficult!

Michael Jackson had five! But who were Rolls and Royce?
Henry Royce
Henry Royce was born in 1863. He was from a poor family
and he started work when he was only 10 years old. He worked
very hard and became a successful engineer. He started the
engineering company FH Royce & Co. in Manchester in 1884.
He died in 1933.
Charles Rolls
Charles Rolls was from a rich aristocratic family. He was born
in 1877 and studied engineering at Cambridge University.
He was a famous adventurer and a hot-air balloonist. He died
in a plane accident in 1910.

Rolls and Royce met in 1904. Although they were very

the world. Royce realized that Rolls was an excellent salesman
and that he would make the cars successful. In 1906, they
started the Rolls-Royce Company. The first Rolls-Royce
cost £395 (about €475). Today, a new car will cost you over
€300,000.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to nominate my friend Jemima Downside
for a Young Achievers Award.
Although Jemima is only 16, she has achieved a lot.
Her father is ill and cannot work, so Jemima has to
look after him while her mother is at work. She does
the shopping and the cooking for her whole family as
well as her homework every night. However, she never
complains and is always happy and cheerful.
Furthermore, Jemima has raised over £3,500 for
Cancer Research by doing sponsored swims. In
addition, she plays the drums in a local band
and always gets excellent marks at school. Most
importantly, however, Jemima is a fantastic friend.
She is funny, thoughtful, loyal and trustworthy.
For all these reasons I think you should make Jemima
a Young Achiever.
Yours faithfully,

Fortnum & Mason is one of London’s most
famous shops. Its nickname is Fortnum’s. It
is on Piccadilly, an important street in the
centre of London.
In 1707, William Fortnum worked in
London in Queen Anne’s palace. One of
Fortnum’s jobs was changing the candles
every day. However, Fortnum didn’t throw
away the used candles. He sold them
together with his groceries!
Hugh Mason also sold groceries and
Fortnum rented a room in his house. When
the two men became friends, they decided
to start a grocery business together, so in
1707, they opened Fortnum & Mason in
Mayfair, a very fashionable part of London.
The shop is in the same place today! Of
course, they go on selling luxury food
products.
Nowadays, you don’t have to visit London
to buy any luxury product at Fortnum &
Mason. You can order them online on the
shop’s website.
Electronic commerce, or e-commerce, is the process of
buying and selling goods on the Internet. To do this, you
obviously need access to a computer, but you also need a
bank account and a credit or debit card. Online shopping
is becoming more and more popular. Most of the large
chain stores that you find in towns and cities across the
country also have a website where you can shop online.
However, some shops actually only exist online.
Advantages
Disadvantages
Online shopping is very convenient. You
can shop at your leisure in the comfort
of your own home at whatever time of
day or night. Websites don’t close!
There is the opportunity for identity
theft. Computer hackers can gain
access to your personal details and your
credit card number, and then steal your
identity.
You can often get value for money.
There are price comparison websites
that show the shops that sell a certain
product and the different prices. By
comparing prices, you can get the best
deal.
You can return the goods you ordered
if you don’t like them or if they don’t
fit, but you usually have to pay to post
them.
You can only see photos of the
product. You can’t see or touch the
product before you buy it, so the
quality might not be as good as you
expect. In some cases, a designer
product might actually be a fake.
