Aha ha... Interesting comment, catastrophe!
You're never, ever close to a catastrophe! :D
I do wish to find the reasons with you together! ;))
For the meantime, I hope you'll find peace in the beautiful sonnet (18) of Shakespear!
Thank you, Elsa007!
You might think so, but when I'm angry, I'm a actually cause a lot more damage than a catastrophe!;)
But the good news is that, I hardly get angry! Anyways, I decided to use that name just because I was reading this book called 'Oswald and the end of the world.' It's about a catastrophe on Earth. I loved it, hence the name! And thanks for the recommendation!
Oh dear, beyond catastrophe if you get angry?!
Do you get mad if I.......
tickle your under the arm?? :D
"Do not correct a fool, or s/he will hate you; Correct a wise person, and s/he will appreciate you!" ;)
Ha ha... I only get angry when someone accuses me for something I haven't done. Or when someone underestimates me... And you seem to be quite wise, Elsa007! I bet you read a lot, right??

I’m a good friend only with the person that are good. When my best friend has a problem I try to do all for help him and he helps me when I have a problem. But I don’t sure if I help other person that disgusting me when he has a problem because I’m a proud person. In conclusion I don’t know if I’m a good or bad friend this only knows my best friend.
How do we know a good friend?
It's simple.
A good friend knows not to do something that your friend doesn't like.
It's easy to know your friends' needs, but a good friend ought to know beyond such a common practice, which makes a special!

i don't know, i'm i a good friend or not...
hello
Nowadays a lot of people communicate w/ each orher on the Internet. The more a person shows off or shares pics with "friends", the more the other friend who didn't share the moment feel isolated. It's becoming hard to find real 'friendship' on the Internet where people have to be all things to all people, isn't it!?
ʕ→ᴥ←ʔʕ→ᴥ←ʔʕ→ᴥ←ʔ
Yeah, I agree. I do't have an account in FB, Twitter and stuff, because my relatives think it's not quite safe. But when my classmates talk about the things they shared between themselves, I feel quite isolated. And they do that most of the time. So I'm quite isolated. But I'm not sad, because I know my family knows what's right for me. So, chins up!!!
Heey how are you guys ?
Altijd Ready in da house
When my BFF is ill, I call her and text and she laughs at me that too much care XD
I'm a good Friend :)
I am a good friend with my classmates, but neither is it that I like to help them in everything because in the future they could depend a lot on me.
How can I score points?
Hi catastrophe!
Decide whether you have mostly A's, B's or C's then check out the answers at the bottom of the article.

The multiple choice doesn't make sense;;;
So the answers you think can be different from the writers answer
For example question 2, I think that it will be better for my friend to do as B because the friend has to wait For me to go, but I think the writer doesn't think so.
Hi shinhoo,
Good for you for reading this carefully and for sharing your opinion. You're right that the opinion of the writer may be very different to your own. It's very important when you read anything online to think about this and to decide for yourself what you think about what you're reading and to realise that the opinion of the writer may be different to your own.

Hello, everyone.
Thank you so much for the best website I have ever seen.
I am a little confused so I have a question I want to know about the structure how can I deal with the text when I am answering the questions, I mean which is it okay for me?
1 Read the text firstly move to read the questions then read the text again and find the correct answers
2 Read the text firstly move to read the questions then think the correct answers without reading the text again
Thanks for the lovely comment, imadabad!
Your question is helpful to everyone who visits this website.
In my opinion, I usually go the opposite route actually, but I think it depends on each test taker.
By the way, what kind of a test taker are you?
Your profile picture makes me think that you answer questions through thought vibes...!?

I think I'm a good frients. I have mostly As in the quiz.
I think I'm a good friend. But this 4 questions isn't enough to judge a friend.
When we are in difficult situation, we will realize who is our best friend :)) and I have never been in difficult situation :)
In my opinion, I am a good friends also result of the quiz supports to my opinion.
I am a good friend . The result of the quiz was that I am a good friend but do not let my mates take advantage of me . I think that no one can live without a friend because he/she will feel lonely and sometimes will not be able to skip the difficult situations in his/her life. Friendship must be full of honest,love,reliable and loyalty.
That's right, hgsmf!
I don't think it's wise to take advantage of a bad crowd! :)
By the way, I've got a good friend who brings me joys and softens sorrows of life with nature with each other. Maybe I believe that's the one which is supposed to be a strong bond (James Bond! :)) with honest, love, reliance and loyalty. (From Singapore with Love!)
Ah... I hope my friend shares the same thought! ✨
