Living in a new country gives me many surprises. The first surprise was the way that the U. S. people ______.

One day I saw someone was having a public speech in a square. I thought it would be a______ speech. But I soon found it became a kind of entertainment show.

The speaker told the listeners to protect the environment with humorous words. Later he said some people's behaviour didn't go with their______. He took the example of Taylor Swift's song We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.

He said that since Swift doesn't want to be with the boy any more, she doesn't need to speak it aloud, she doesn't need to sing______she still keeps in touch with that guy. It sounds like she is a hypocrite(伪君子).

Then he sang the song in a______way. The listeners laughed out loudly. I felt a little______ because Swift is my favourite star. I couldn't understand why they______ Swift.

As time goes on, I find many U. S. people make fun of others.______they don't mean to hurt them. They do that to show closeness and humour. And people who are laughed at ______ get angry. Now I understand the speaker ______. Now I've got used to the way the U. S. people speak.
