Two small words can bring a smile to someone’s face: thank you. But ___do you say these two words? Perhaps when someone holds the door open for you. Or when a friend does you a big favor.

In Britain, people say “thank you” quite often, even at times when there is no____. Sometimes we say it sarcastically (讽刺地).____, if a friend throws my food away, thinking I was finished, I may say, “Oh, thank you!” Then my friend would reply, “Sorry.” This can make a situation____confusing (困惑的) to foreign people.

However, anyone working in the service sector (行业)—waiters, taxi drivers, shop assistants, bus drivers and so on –will____a “thank you” from British customers. If you’re happy with the driver who got you to school on time, or the waiter who served you food, say “thank you” to them. You’re really saying “good____“.

Yet I can’t change my British ___of saying “thank you”. Even here in China, I know I use these two words too much. But saying “thank you” is free, and I believe the more the better.

Dear Mr. Lim,

My name is Mary Taylor. I’m a 14-year-old girl. I want to be a pilot. I spend hours watching the planes take off from the airport. I love traveling to new places by plane and the idea of flying people around the world!

I’m not sure whether it’s the right job for me. I want to decide soon. I hope to start training early. I want to be young when I’m flying a Boeing 737 or even an A380.

I have so many questions about the job-do you get paid well? I want to make lots of money because I want to have a big family and a big house. Is it fun? Is it safer than being a doctor, a policewoman,etc.?Is it really hard? I’m a girl,so will I be discriminated against(被歧视)? If I decide to become a pilot, where and when should I start training?

My only brother also says if I want to be a pilot, I have to be really good at math, but I’m only OK at math.

Being a pilot looks like one of the coolest jobs in the world. Could you please write to me soon? Thanks so much, Mr. Lim!

Yours,

Mary Taylor
