一鸟在手，胜于二鸟在林

出处：伊索寓言里有人则夜莺被老鹰抓到的故事，夜莺眼看自己小命即将不保，试着说服老鹰告诉他自己太小无法让老鹰饱餐一顿，建议老鹰去抓只小狗的鸟。但老鹰回答说，要是他为了期待能抓到一只小狗的鸟，而放了这只已经到手的夜莺，那他才真是笨呢。

小K2015年9月5号托福口语独立任务task2口语示范（告诉你如何用活今天介绍的美国俚语）

Do you agree or disagree the following statement: friends can maintain friendship even if they have disagreements.

I support the following statement because I truly believe every single relationship, including friendship, will undergo ups and downs along the way. So it's inevitable that friends may not see eye to eye on some issues, like which political candidate to vote for, or the most economical way to travel in Europe. Having said, a true friendship should not be jeopardized because disagreements are only a drop in the bucket, which doesn't happen on a regular basis. Besides, as the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed. Friends of life will let bygone be bygone and offer their help to you when it's most needed.
