  All kinds of people come in to have their shoes shined.Most of them are friendly.But this man was different.

  “How much do you make a week, boy?” he asked me.I felt he was   1   at me.

  He kept taking a sharp   2   around every now and then.All the time I kept   3   where I’d seen his face.Suddenly I knew I’d seen his   4   in the post office many times.He was a big robber:  5   by the police in three states!

  “You know,”he was saying,“it’s imagination people lack.You’ll never get   6   as a shoeshine boy.”

  I kept brushing away at his shoes as   7   as I could.The sooner I finished the better.He said,“When I was sixteen, I had   8   $2500 of my own.”

  That reminded me of something.Was it $2500 or $5000 or $25 000?I wasn’t   9  .I knew a big reward was   10   for him.What could I do about it?  11   him with a can of shoe polish?A man has   12   could grind(碾碎)me into the floor.If only someone would come in!

  He kept talking away,“Along with   13  , it takes courage.The courage to take a chance.Start something on a shoestring.”

  Suddenly I saw Officer Dailey   14   across the street.Then, real fast, I began tightening the man’s shoestrings.

  The policeman was at the window when I cried out,“Officer Dailey,   15  !This man’s a robber.”

  “  16  ,” the man shouted angrily.He started to jump off the stand.It didn’t go the   17   he planned.He fell flat on his face and knocked himself out cold.

  “That was pretty   18   of you,” the officer said.“You’ll get a reward of $7500 for him.”

  “Well, it really wasn’t my   19  ,” I said.“It was his.He told me if you had courage and imagination you could start something   20   on a shoestring.”

How to make friends with people from a different culture? The rules are as follows:

Appreciate the Person.

Most Americans like to be recognized as individuals as someone special with unique personalities. Therefore, never say, “You’re from America so I want to be your friend.” Also don’t imply that the reason why you approached them is that you wanted someone to practice your English with. That turns people off. Instead try saying,” You seem like a real nice and interesting person and I would like to get to know you better.” This way, they are much more inclined to be friendly because you see them as a three dimensional person and appreciate them for who they are in the inside. And by doing so, you not only learn about Americans and practice your English, but also gain a real friend in the process.

Quit Calling Us Foreigners.

Please avoid calling a foreigner a foreigner especially in his face. The word makes people feel like an outsider, and even unwelcome, suggesting separation and insurmountable differences, widening an already existing gap in the situation. When Americans travel, they rarely say, “ I’m foreign to your place.” They tend to say, “ I’m new in town. I’m new here.” The reason is because new and unfamiliar things can become old and familiar. But can foreign things become native? Aha? You catch my drift.

Just Do It.

Some students like to be told about American culture but are less interested in spending the time and the effort to actually experience it. As Americans always say, “ Get your hands dirty.” You should have first hand and hands on experience, or you’ll never really know anything.

Find that Common Language.

Now I must stress the importance of finding a common language. By that I don’t mean English, Chinese, German, French, etc. I mean finding something you have in common with another person on a spiritual and philosophical level: likes, dislikes, worldviews, ways of thinking , and attitudes toward life. And to start, you must first enhance your knowledge of the particular culture from which your potential new friend comes form.

The underlined sentence “ Get your hands dirty” means     .

   A. get involved                 B. start with dirty work

   C. talk about American culture     D. don’t wash your hands too often

Americans prefer to make friends with those who     .

   A. avoid talking about their homeland

   B. recognize their personalities

   C. obey rules of communicating with friends

   D. needn’t practice English while playing together

According to the passage, which of the following is friendly?

   A. I am longing to make friends with an American.

   B. This is my friend Tom, who is a foreigner.

   C. There must be a gap between us in many things.

   D. You’ve got a great personality.

Today both English language and Internet have brought the whole world right in your drawing room. Now you can do whatever you want to without leaving the comfort of your home. So English has become a must. Nothing is imaginable without it. How to solve the problem?
No speech can be imagined without listening. Develop a habit of listening to something in English daily. I mean to say, listen to English songs, short stories, interviews and short and simple conversations regularly. Repeat listening what you have just listened. Not once but many times. How does a child become able to speak? It is simple. He/She is compelled to listen whatever their parents and people around them speak. Gradually they begin to reproduce what they have heard. So enjoy listening. Listening practice will fix correct pronunciation of the words in your mind and you'll be able to utter them as naturally and easily as a native speaker does.
Speak what you have listened, as the more you listen, the more you will be able to speak and the more learning of the language will occur. So go on practicing speaking whatever you have heard. Furthermore speaking practice will train your mouth and ears. The main ideas of what you have listened and spoken will get fixed into your memory. Once the structures of sentences, phrases get fixed in your subconscious you'll never have to fumble for words, phrases or sentences when you converse with your friends or with someone else.
When you have taken these two steps, you will find amazing change. Now you can start to put in a little time in reading and writing skills as reading and writing skills have their own importance and place in a language learning and you can develop them on the strong foundation of listening and speaking skills later.
