Red River Valley
From this valley they say you are going I will miss your bright eyes and ①sweet__smile For they say you are taking the ②sunshine That has ③brightened our pathway awhile Come and sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to ④bid me adieu But remember the Red River Valley And the one who has loved you so true I’ve been thinking a long time my darling Of the ⑤sweet words you never would say Now alas all my fond hopes are vanished
For they say you are going away From this valley they say you are going I will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile For they say you are taking the sunshine That has brightened our pathway awhile I will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
红河谷 人们说你要离开村庄
我会想念你明媚的双眸和甜甜的笑容
因为人们说你会带走阳光 它曾照亮我们的路 来坐在我身旁如果你爱我
不要离开得这样匆忙 你可要记住这红河谷 还有那真爱你的人 长久以来，我一直在回想 那些你不曾说出的美好誓言 可是，现在我所有的美好希望都已破灭
因为他们说你要离开 人们说你要离开村庄
我会想念你明媚的双眸和甜甜的笑容
因为人们说你会带走阳光 它曾照亮我们的路
我会想念你明媚的双眸和甜甜的笑容

CLICK FOR A FRIEND?
How would you feel (1)if moving to a new town meant losing track of your friends? What if the only way of getting news from faraway friends was writing letters that took ages to be delivered? This was how things worked not very long ago.Thanks to advances in technology，how we make friends and communicate with them has changed significantly.
Nowadays，we can move around the world and still stay in touch with the people (2)that we want to remain friends with.Social media tools let us see (3)what our friends
are up to and maintain friendships.All you need is a wi-fi connection.
The digital age also enables us to find people (4)who share our interests, such as collecting model cars or playing an unusual instrument.(5)Whatever our hobbies, the Internet can connect us with others who also enjoy doing them, even if they live on the other side of the world.
But (6) when you “friend” people online, does this mean that they really are your friends? It depends.
If people always exchange true personal information online, then yes, these friendships can be real and meaningful.But we need to keep in mind (7)that what we see on social media is often not the whole truth about a person.
On social media sites, people tend to post only positive updates (8)that make them appear happy and friendly.But smiling photos can hide real problems.Remember the saying：on the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog.A young person could be old; a woman could be a man; we could even be sharing our information with criminals. But this doesn’t mean that we should throw the baby out with the bathwater.(9)Although technology has changed the way we acquire friends, the meaning of friendship and our longing for friends remain the same.(10)As Aristotle said, no one would choose to live without friends，even if he had all other goods.
