Friendship Day in India falls on the first Sunday of August every year. It is celebrated with many activities.
Young people in India spend the day with their closest friends and have fun together. Most youngsters in
India plan a movie or have a meal with their friends. Many friends may go on a drive to tourist places or go
camping. Some friends go to the supermarket for shopping. On Friendship Day, most stores offer discounted
(打折的) prices for customers and it is the perfect day to buy something for friends.
Some friends go to parties that are organized by many restaurants in order to attract youngsters. Such
parties are very enjoyable. You can get food at a discounted price. Some friends just decide to meet up (碰头,

talking over a cup of coffee is unforgettable.
