reciting poems, singing songs, telling stories, etc. This is a good way to increase the students’ interest in learning English as well as enhance their understanding of friendship. Suggested English song Auld Lang Syne should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? should auld acquaintance be forgot,

if you ever change your mind, but I living, living me behind, oh bring it to me, bring me your sweet loving, bring it home to me.

I’ll give you jewelry and

money too. that s all all I’ll do for you.

oh bring it to me, bring me your sweet loving,

darling you know I laughed when you left, but now I know that I only hurt myself. please bring it to me, bring your sweet sweet love,

if you ever change your mind, but I living, living me behind, oh bring it to me, bring me your sweet loving,

for auld lang syne my dear, for auld lang syne, we’ll ta

for the sake of auld lang syne. The song Auld Lang Syne can remind people to think of old friends and remember the good times of the past, as they look forward to the future. It is sung at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve in nearly every English-speaking country. This tradition is centuries old, but the version of the song that is sung today was written by Robert Burns in the 18th century. “Auld Lang Syne” comes from the old Scotch language and literally means “Old Long Age”(旧日时光) or “Good Old Days”(美好往昔). It was used as the theme song in the 1940 movie Waterloo Bridge (《魂断蓝桥》). 附参考译文：《友谊地久天长》

怎能忘记旧日朋友/心中能不怀想/旧日朋友岂能相忘/友谊地久天长/ 我们曾经终日游荡/在故乡的青山上/我们也曾历尽苦辛/到处奔波流浪/ 我们也曾终日逍遥/荡桨在碧波上/但如今却劳燕分飞/远隔大海重洋

我们往日情意相投/让我们紧握手/我们来举杯畅饮/友谊地久天长

友谊万岁/友谊万岁/举杯痛饮/同声歌颂友谊地久天长

Suggested English little poem Childhood Friends

As childhood friends, we grew up together, Swearing to be friends forever and ever. Sometimes we would argue and fight, Other times we would laugh and stay up all

We went from playing with games and toys, To talking and dreaming about different boys. My thoughts and feelings, to you I would confide,

Friends we do remain, Things changing, and things staying the same. To each other we still listen and share, About each other, we will always care.
