Have you heard of the term “etiquette” And do you know that etiquette is not only a useful word1 very useful to understand?
Etiquette is not the same in every culture2 in every situation. For example, standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries. However; if you do this in Europe, some3 people might feel4.Even in China, we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations. Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine, but there are other places where talking loudly is5.For example ,most people would agree that talking loudly in a library, a museum, or a movie theater is6.Even if you are with your friends, it is better to keep your voice7in public places. In fact, we should also8not to cough or sneeze loudly in public.
If we see someone9the rules of etiquette, we may politely give them some suggestions. Perhaps one of the most polite ways10ask someone, Would you mind doing this or Would you mindnot doing that. For example, if someone cuts11you in a line, you could ask them, Sorry, would you mind12the line? If someone is smoking on the bus you could ask, Excuse me, could you please13that cigarette? People don’t usually like14, so we have to be careful how we do this.
Although rules of etiquette can often be different, some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world! For example,15is almost never allowed. If you see someone you know doing this, you can ask them, Would you mind picking it up?

Monty was the son of a horse trainer. When he was in his ninth grade, he was asked to write a1 about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
That night he wrote a seven-page paper saying that someday he’d2 a horse ranch (牧场). He wrote about his dream in great detail and he3 drew a picture of a 200-acre ranch with all the buildings.
He put a great deal of his4 into the project and the next day he handed it in5 his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a6 that read, “See me after class.”
The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, “7 did I receive an F?”
The teacher said, “This is an8 dream for a young boy like you. You come from a poor family. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of9. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for other things. There is no10 you could ever do it.” Then the teacher added, “11 you rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.”
The boy went home and thought about12 long and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, “Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important13 for you.”
Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the14 paper, making no changes at all. He said to the teacher, “You can keep the F and I’11 keep my15.”

Some people have very good memories and can easily learn quite long poem(诗歌)by heart. Some people have1memories and can only2things that they have said again and again.
The3English writer Charles Dickens said that he could walk down4street in London and then tell you the name of every shop on5sides of the street. Great men in the world have wonderful memories.
A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns 6language by remembering what he hears7he is a small child. Some children live with their parents in foreign countries and they seem8two languages as9as one. In school it is not so easy to learn foreign languages10students have little time11it and they are busy with other subjects as well.
A man’s mind is quite like a camera but it12photos of what we see and it can also take photos of what we feel, hear, smell and taste. When we take a real photo13a camera there is much work14before the photo is finished and ready to show to our friends.15the same way there is much work to do before we can keep a picture forever in our mind.
