Neighbors & Friends

Speaking Part

Q1: Do you have a good relationship with your neighbors?

Yes, I dare say that I have a cordial relationship with my neighbors. We maintain a friendly rapport with each other, often exchanging pleasantries and occasionally lending a helping hand when necessary.

• Maintain a friendly rapport → Duy trì mối quan hệ thân thiện

• Lending a helping hand → Giúp đỡ

Q2: What do you think the qualities of a good neighbor are?

In my opinion, a good neighbor should be amiable, considerate and reliable. They should be friendly and approachable, yet respect one's privacy. It's also important that they are there to lend a helping hand during times of need.

• Amiable → Dễ mến

• Considerate → Ân cần, chu đáo

• Reliable → Đáng tin cậy

Q3: How often do you see your friends?

I hang out with my friends quite frequently, at least twice a week. We usually gather at a local café or at someone's house to catch up on each other's lives and share a few laughs.
