Now people around the world celebrate(庆祝)Friendship Day. Do you know the stories behind it
An American woman, Joyce Hall, sold cards. In 1930, she got the idea of Friendship Day. She thought if people had a new day to celebrate, they would buy more cards. Many Americans gave cards and other gifts to their friends on the day. However, they stopped doing it because they didn’t want to see it become commercialized(商业化的). In1935, the US Congress(国会)decided to make it the first Sunday of August. It became a day to honor(尊重)true friends.
The story behind Friendship Day is different in Paraguay. In 1958, a group of friends in Puerto Pinasco, Paraguay decided to celebrate friendship on July 30 every year. One man in the group, Ramon Artemio Bracho, wanted to do more. He worked hard to start celebrations in other countries. Thanks to(多亏了)Ramon’s work, more countries took up the idea. Friendship Day was growing.
In 2011, the United Nations declared(联合国宣布)July 30 the International Day of Friendship. On that day, there are activities in different countries, like fun runs and friendly games.
But not all countries celebrate Friendship Day July 30. Argentina and Brazil celebrate it on July 20. In India, they celebrate it on the first Sunday of August.

My Friend and I
My best friend is Li Hua. I want to tell you something about us.
We are in the same class. We have much in common. I am as tall as her. We both like music and English. We are good at swimming. We usually go swimming on weekends. How interesting! We like action movies a lot. However, we are different in some ways. I am more outgoing than her. I like to tell jokes to make my classmates laugh. Although I’m smarter than her, she is more hard-working than me. So She always gets better grades. We have healthy living habits. We eat fresh fruit and vegetables every day. We exercise every morning. We never stay up. We use the Internet only once a week. We sleep for nine hours every night. We get up early.
I hope that we are friends forever.
