3.Read the poem and summarize it
by Mohan Rana
I saw the stars far off - as far as I from them: in this moment I saw them - in moments of the twinkling past. In the boundless depths of darkness, these hours hunt the morning through the night.
And I can't make up my mind: am I living this life for the first time? Or repeating it, forgetting as I live the first moment of breath every time?
Does the fish too drink water? Does the sun feel the heat? Does the light see the dark? Does the rain too get wet? Do dreams ask questions about sleep as I do?
I walked a long, long way and when I saw, I saw the stars close by.
Today it rained all day long and the words were washed away from your face.
Speaking. There is a saying in English: “When in Rome, do as the Romans do” What does it mean? Do you agree or disagree? Do you have a similar saying in your language.

Most South Americans and Mexicans like to stand very close to the person they’re talking to. You should’t back away.
In Russia, you must match your hosts drink for drink or they will think you unfriendly.

In America you should eat eat your hamburgers with both hands and ask quickly as possible. You shouldn’t try to have a conversation until it is eaten.
