A movie named 'Padma nadir majhi' is one of the best movie which depicts our country culture hugely. I have seen many movies with country culture vibes but this one is really heart touching. With this one, you can seea family is attached with our country best river's and much more concept of our daily life story. If anyone wants to know about our country’s culture i would love to suggest this movie.it represents so far us.

His videos are really helpful! Highly recommend to practice and follow whatever he says. Even tho I scored 103 in Toefl, I took the duolingo just to see how I would perform after watching his videos. I ended up scoring 145/160 by just 4 days of practice. My estimated score was always around 110-150.
Hi dear Luke. I used your courses and videos, and I got 115. Your videos and courses were really effective and helpful. Thank you so much, Luke !!!

One friend who played a significant role in my life is my cousin. I met her during college while I was her senior. She is brilliant, and she is a true bookworm. She was very interested in studying and always encouraged me to read books, write articles and look for opportunities to pursue studies abroad. Coming to the last question, we exchanged many books and talked about the books we read at the weekends. We also wrote personal statements, statements of purpose, and other related articles and then commented on each others’ writing. Therefore, her motivation and encouragement significantly inspired me and helped me thrive more academically and professionally.
Two qualities that stand out for me when it comes to defining a good friendship is trust and understanding. This is needed because of times of fights and disagreement. For instance, whenever my friend and I am not in a very light mood, what keeps me going is the fact that I trust her that she wouldn't set out to hurt me with her actions.
Yes, Mr Luke It’s absolutely helpful I am gonna give a test soon
There are so many friends in my life but Javid has played very important part in my life. We were meet at the time of college up down via train. There are very things that we done together like play cricket and we always used to go for walk on road on every evening to be relax from tired in whole days. We always used to share our happy and sad moments in my life with him.
4) The history and culture play the basic role in each country and nation. As a big fan of history I have read a lot of historic books about my nation. In my view the best book which descibes our culture is "The Nomads" bu Ilyas Esenberlin. The novel consists of three books, each book is dedicated the most important changes in the world of nomads. In his work he shows us how the belief plays the main role in becoming as a one nation
Thanks for your video. I got my results and it was 120. God bless you Teacher Luke!
QUESTION 3: I met Sophia when I started my course of arts in the college, we were classmates. I remember I almost quit a difficult subject, and Sophia helped me to pass it. We start studying together for the exams, we used to study the whole nights of the exams eve, and I got success in my grades because of her patience with me. At that time, I introduced Sophia to my best friend of school, Samuel, and nowadays they are a couple.

Great respect, love and caring for elderly is hugely important in our lives. In my opinion, a family is responsible to care for their elderly. I think it is required for us to spend some of our free time with our elderly and to learn some social knowledge from them, because due to their high experience, they can share useful information with us. Today, we are at a higher posts just because of the hard work of elderly people. So instead of sending them to old houses, youngsters have the responsibilities to care for their elderly relatives.

A good friend has some desired qualities for instance he is always ready to help you when you are in need. Furthermore he is always honest with you and motivates us to become better ourselves
When it comes to the most effective elements to choose your friend, I would say that finding each person under pressure will declare his character clearly. To illustrate, if someone do not get anger easily and always have politeness reaction, that means he can be well organized at almost of other life aspects. An eminent example is working at the same workplace will be a good chance to create a real friend. In conclusion, a benevolent friend should be polite, calm, trustful and highly confidence.
Actually, I have two best friends from high school and, although we live in three different cities, we still talk frequently to share our lives. We met about twenty-four years ago when we studied in the same class. We have been present - physically or virtually - to one another's most important moments, like weddings, moving abroad for a while or forever, having children, and so on. We travel together, used to go to nightclubs when we were younger, whenever we can we get together to eat and talk, simple things like those. We are just always there for each other no matter how.

I met with my close friend in high school. As we both lived far from our school we had to live in dormitory. she was my roommate for almost two years. We had done together too many wonderful things, from studing in library to travelling in summertime. despite the fact the dormitory closes at 11 pm we played and walked untill midnight, then we had to get to our room through the window and didn't get caught by secuirty. we had such a fun those times and still remember with smile on our face

I met Austin in my first year of middle school. I was a newcomer in that school and he was the first one to talk to me. We became friend ever since. I often go to his house where we got to talk all day. We also often go outside. I remember when he invited me to a restaurant to celebrate my birthday and paid me a meal. He is like a brother to me and I love him so much. In brief, Austin has played a great role in my life because of his kindness, frankness and understanding.

in middle school one of teachers demonstrated to my group how little amount of drinkable water we have on earth by comparing a big jug fulled with water and leaving about one millimeter on the top of it. She explained the huge part as a solid water that covers the 70% percent of earth, and a tiny part was a potable which all living creatures on the planet uses on daily basis. the informative lesson gave a huge impression and made me value the source of life
Hope to do well on my Duolingo exam this year

Elias is a friend who has been very instrumental in my life. He has stood with me through thick and thin. We met the first day in college and since then, our paths seem to collide at every corner. Not only do we have a similar background, but we seem to have the same mindset. We started by watching football together and ended up doing virtually everything together from clubbing to working for the same employer. No wonder our wives are now best of friends.
My actual best friend is one of the most important person in my life. I met her when I recently came to Canada for the first time. She played an important part of my life cause she was my very first friend here and from the moment we met we just made instant click, just as the movies and having her friendship made me feel that I’m not alone, that I can count on someone in this new chapter of my life. We traveled together to Mexico and met each other families. We went to the beach here in Canada and also spend our first Canadian day together at a concert!
Back to the past when i was in the last year of high school i’ve a friend called sani. She has a vital role in my life at the moment. She always helps me even these days. The most i remember is when she helped me to solve my science homework until she stayed in my home for 2 days!
Thank you for your helpful videos. They are realy practical.
well in a long time ago i meet somebody in fb app, we had conversation about everything specifically about education. he encouraged me alot about studying at university. finally i meet him in real world and we became true friends.he was very helpfull, we study together at university, that is very important to me that find somebody useful.

I am so friendly and due to this reason, I have a lot of friends. But one of my best friend is Maleeha and she played a highly important role in my life. Furthermore, we both met at the first day of college and our first conversation was about the logical methods of study. After that, we both were become best friends. moreover, we both started studying together and share every happy and sad moments of our lives . We both were much interested in playing hide and seek. We shared our tiffin with one another. I really miss those awesome moments and I will never forget her and I will always remember her till the last breath of my life.
Today here in this writing i would like talk about one of my favorite friend who motivate me during my studies and on my professional life. I met him in my home town he lives near to my house and he is IT professional. Here, i would like to mention one of the greatest event in my life, i was very weak at my school studies and when i went to him taught me mathematics in such a way i never felt problem in math .To conclude, for reasons mentioned above, i believe that,he played a crucial role in my education field.
With your guidance, I was able to obtain 135 out of 160. Thank you so much, sir. I can say it without any hesitation that you are by far, the best instructor for DET at this moment. Thanks again, sir! 😄

I had a lot of friends in my school life. But the one that played an important part in my life is the one I can never forget. We met in grade nine in our high school. When I was new in the class, I became scared. He was the one who first started the friendship and supported me till the last day of school. Together we had a great time. We did a lot of things at that time. For instance, we watched a lot of movies, played a lot of games and the best part is we prepared for the exams together. All in all, he is the best person I've ever met in my life.
I love you ❤️ Thank you so much for your all wonderful lessons
There are few qualities a good friend can have. Firstly, understanding our situation & helping us to console us according to the situation. Secondly, Being a helping hand in all the aspects and being a strong supporter. These are the some important qualities of a good friend
Of course, there are many books and movies that explain different aspects of my country’s culture. However, there is one book called “The kite Runner” written by Khalid Hosseini which represents the social and cultural aspects of Afghanistan very well. His roman is set in Kabul, Afghanistan. The main character of the book is a boy by the name of Amir who is living in a very wealthy family. His best friend is Hassan from a poor Hazara family. In short, the above-mentioned book explains the cultural and social complexities of Afghan society in a very nice way.
Friend, is a simple word but has a huge meaning there are some qualities to make you good friend. The first is being real, being real friend is base of friendship. The second is making time for your friends and being in touch with them and being aware from their situations and not the last but least the most important is being all the time available for them whenever they need us.
i think what makes a good qualities of a good friend is that someone who respect you. a friend that listened to you to anything you say, or gives you comfort and advice when you are in trouble. they accompanied you when you need it. but mostly i would say a good friend is someone who listened, because a lot of friends who said that they are a good friend but they dont want to listen when you talk or they didn't care about what are you talking about. even underestimate the little things that you wanted to talk about. To be listened is a best of quality of a good friend.
There is a friend in my life who has played an important part in my life. I have met her since we were in high school. In the first meeting, she introduced herself first and asked my name. In fact, she actually lived in the same district as mine. We played together and often spent our time alone at school. When I was sad, she was ready to listen to me for venting out and consoled me and vice versa. Even until we are in a different university, we still keep in touch and even talk almost everyday but surely we understand the business of each other. We always support each other when there are so much assignments that we should do in campus. She has played an important role in my life.
Thank you so much.😍😍😍
yes its really helpful
This lesson is priceless
There are crucial qualities of having a good friend. First, Having a good friend will allow us to get a vital thing in life. For instance, sharing experiences, ideas and secrets moreover, sharing educational knowledge is the paramount quality of having a good friend even though it allows us to share our ideas when we felt sorrow in any situation. From my point of view, I wouldn't recommend having a lot of friends but a best friend who will be with you in good and bad conditions of life .Finally having a good friend have paramount qualities .
I really like your lessons
I like this video because it is very helpful for me.I do not know nothing about it.
Over the years, I have made so many friends where some of them had good qualities however few of them were extremely bad at holding backs. Friends are those who can feel and hear the voice of another friend. To be a good harmonic partner other should have the ability to understand the inner voice, generous behaviour and special comfort zone to share things. In friendship we must have to move forward with an open mind more than a narrow mindset of drag down other's back .
this is very helpful
Just because of your videos I got 120..Thanks a bunch. 👍🏻😊
I believe that everyone in this world cannot live by themselves and they do need friends who can share their feeling with.I also have one friend who I bare heart to him every time I got depressed and he always listen to me carefully and encourage to get over my problems and stay by my side.I met him when I was grade 9 and he was grade 10. We shared the same tuition and we became close at that time.I would like to say that he is not just my friend but he is my family.
Yes. It is more than helpful.
1-qustion) To me, I definitely think that a good friend should always support you when you have some issues. What is more, he should be always optimistic as you are. For instance, I have my best friend whose name is Adi he has a lot of interesting qualities, such as he is joyful, active, and hardworking.
I think an excellent buddy has so many important characteristics. one of them is having honesty and not telling lies together. for instance, the friends should always tell the truth together. in addition a good friend is the person who is always available in times of needing or at least try or do his or her best to help. For instance, if we need money , a wonderful friend will borrow us the amount we want. to conclude, although nobody is perfect, we can do our best to be the best to our friends
I have met my friend when I was in first grade. His name was Daniel. We had some problems with friendship in school, so we designed to be friends. He was open minded, so it was great. We trusted to each other. When we had problems he was the first who helped me to solve my problems. Moreover, I remember how I was playing football, and broke my arm. He helped me to stay and drive me to the hospital. I will never forgotten about him. He played me an important role
YES, it is GREAT
A friend in need is a friend indeed. This cliche says all for me, a the most necessary quality of a friend should be his support in the time of breakdown of other. If the person does not stay in my problems, he is just like the rest of the people around me. Friends supporting each other are the true kind.
Hi teacher look the videos are greatly helpful. it was challenginig for me to meet up with the time.
Hi teacher Luke, reading the first question (qualities a friend should have), I had different qualities in my mind but when I started writing, I only could think about one: honesty. So went back to my introduction to change it and stated that I will specifically develop one of the qualities a friend should have. So, I didn't really answer the question (it was about qualities and I only gave one). Do you think that my answer can still be valid?
3. I have met many amazing friends in my life, however there is one, in particular, has played an important role of my life. She is my childhood friend and best friend. I met her at the primary school for the very first time and immediately we bonded our love of playing dolls. Later, we played together everyday. Even in the weekend we handout and play together. All my entire life, she has helped me over many years. I am not sure where I would be without this great friend.
A friend that played an important role in my life is my online friends. I met them on Twitter when covid-19 hit the world back then in the 2020. In 2020, it is really hard to interact with friends because all things that I can do is to stay at home. Meeting them is one of my the best moment in my life. We had a group chat for study together for college preparation test. We always study together every night and it was really helpful for me. Even though we barely known each other in real life, but we are really a good friends. Our worked hard paid off as all of us accepted in our dream university.
QI: I would say some important qualities of a good friend include a tendency to help others, being supportive, and having tolerance. These are highly important to maintain a good relationship and also for social well-being. For instance, my friend never leaves me behind and is always there for me whenever I need help. To conclude, the qualities I said above are crucial for a person to be a good friend.

As a student of Literature, I have it in my consciousness that every literary piece whether written or staged captures the past, present and future events in the society. That is the reason Literature cannot exist in a vacuum. Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart is a very significant piece to the Africans because it encapsulates the way of life of the Africans in dressing, language, marriage etc. The text vividly reveal to the readers how marriages are being conducted in a typical African country specifically in the Igbo clan of Nigeria.
According to me one of the most important quality of a good friend is to be loyal and helpful and big one is to make happy when I am sad.
it is known that having a freind to rely one is the best thing that you can have. i met my besfreind because we were neighbor and we were in the same school so I told here that we should go to school together. she is like my backbone always giving the best advices and playing an intergral part in every decision I made. we stayed up till sunrise sometimes just chilling and talking about life and we loved to explore the city together
In my point of view the most important quantities of a good friend were being honest to each other, staying loyal and cheerful all the times. So, not only considering qualities but also mutual understanding can make friends to stick each other through out their lifetime and grow better. Thier is one saying called "a friend in need is a friend indeed" is the beautiful heart touching proverb I personally always believes in. So, in my view only a best friend with the above mentioned qualities can stand by in difficult times and make us stronger.
There are several importants qualities that good friends always have for example they hold ur back on hard moments and never gossip about you in-front people’s ,furthermore they try to be around everytime you need them and also good friends can be a member of family if you don’t have and you can talk with them on every issues your going through
Like your videos sir!
One of my friend named Harry has played a very essential part of my life.I met this friend at grade 8 when he was admitted to the same college as I do.He teached me various subjects that I find was the difficult one.He made me a hardworking person.Lastly,we swam together,we watched movie together etc
In my opinion a good friend must be Friendly, understanding, loyal and honest. The most important quality is honest because I really appreciate a person who you can count on to tell you the truth no matter the circumstances. I have a friend that I met in 2013 but we only became close because the pandemic, she's a good friend because when I broke down she always has good advice to give me and she's very honest if I wrong about something.
Lot of respect towards you sir. ❤️ From India'your fan. You are masterpiece ❤️👍👌👌👍👌
A good friend can has enormous good characteristics. One most important is his reliabilility by which we can not only trust him in any situation but also can share whatever secrets we have. A good friend would never left you in any situation nevertheless of loss or profits. He will not let you down no matter how hard the situation is.
There are many reasons which we can name someone a good friend ,regardless of their genders. from my point of view, being a good friend plays a vital role in our life. First of all, to be supportive and always helping you ,if they can not help you, at least they can be companion, and in addition, good friends are like a family and we can count on them , especially in difficult situations. They can help us and guide us in solving problems. To conclude, having a good friend consists of a package , like supporting, guiding , and being kind and helping us .( this is the first writing that I have written, exactly 5 min)
Friends are the important part of life and in my opinion, a best friend must have these two qualities. Firstly , a friend need to be helpful, then he can understand the troubles of your life and he will never fed up from your problems. So, he will always support you in the hard situation. Secondly, a best friend must be a caring person that he cares you and you are able to share everything with him freely. I am so lucky, because my best friend have all these qualities and we share all our happiness with each other and support one another in every difficult situation.
there are many friends in my life but deep is my best friend and the oldest also. The quality that best friend should have is to direct a friend in a right direction and to stay with him in all the bad and goods situations.

My friend has played important part in my life. When i was child, my mother used to take me a park and i saw one boy who was sitting in the banch and i asked some questions to his and my journey started here. I would spend a lot of with my friend at my house. We often played soccer in the street and other games. So far, i have done a lot of works with my friend, for instance, we prepared the university and so on
I had lots of time that I was surprised and thrilled. My emotions and feeling are some kind of different and not simple to express. I shall show you for instance an situation that I feel myself on cloud nine. While I was doing my homework and school project, my mom entered to my room and said you are accepted to Yale. I was such surprised that moment and did hug my mom and i of course I told this to my all relations. In the evening we went to my lovely restaurant and booked my favourite foods.
There is one friend that motivates me so I can keep spirit in living my college life. When I was about to register for college, I was so afraid and being anxious about my skills and knowlegde for the test that I need to take to apply for a college. But, this person (we are best friend now) was paying attention to me and she was being indifferent yo my situation. She was willingly to help me studying and she kept motivating me to reach my indescribable goals. So, we are now in the same college and always help eachother when we are facing difficulties. I am very blissful to have her.
I met my best friend when I was in elementary school, we went to the same class for two years and then she moved and was transferred to another school, but we still keep our friendship, the distance was not an excuse for us, we have worked together, we have been to the movies several times, we have traveled on vacations, we spent Christmas together and we trust each other as if we were family, I hope everyone gets to know someone like my best friend.
