【题目】I travel a lot, and I find out different "styles"(风格)of directions every time I ask "How can I get to the post office?"

Foreign tourists are often confused (困惑)in Japan because most streets there don't have names; in Japan, people use landmarks(地标)in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers"Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop. "

In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say" Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile. "

People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?" you ask. "Oh" they answer"it's about five minutes from here. " You say" Yes, but how many miles away is it?"They don't know.

It's true that a person doesn't know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say" Sorry, I have no idea. “But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don't know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don't know. “is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan

【题目】It was an autumn morning shortly after my husband and I moved into our first house. Our children were upstairs unpacking, and I was looking out of the window at my father moving around mysteriously on the front lawn. My parents lived nearby, and Dad had visited us several times already. “What are you doing out there?” I called to him.

He looked up, smiling. “I’m making you a surprise.” Knowing my father, I thought it could be just about anything. A self-employed jobber, he was always building things out of odds and ends. When we were kids, he always created something surprising for us.

Today, however, Dad would say no more, and caught ups in the busyness of our new life, I eventually forgot about his surprise.

Until one gloomy day the following March when I glanced out of the window. Any yet… I saw a dot of blue across the yard. I headed outside for a closer look. They were crocuses (番红花), throughout the front lawn. Lavender, blue, yellow and my favorite pink --- little faces moved up and down in the cold wind.

Dad! I smiled, remembering the things he had secretly planted last autumn. He knew how the darkness and dullness of winter always got me down. What could have been more perfectly timely to my needs?

My father’s crocuses bloomed each spring for the next four or five seasons, bringing the same assurance every time they arrived: hard times was almost over. Hold on, keep going, light is coming soon.

Then a spring came with only half the usual blooms. The next spring there were none. I missed the crocuses. I would ask Dad to come over and plant new bulbs. But I never did.

He died suddenly one October day. My family was in deep sorrow, leaning on our faith. I missed him terribly.

Four years passed, and on a dismal spring afternoon I was driving back when I found myself feeling depressed. “You’ve got the winter depression again and you get them every year.” I told myself.

It was Dad’s birthday, and I found myself thinking about him. This was not unusual --- my family often talked about him, remembering how he lived his faith. Once I saw him give his coat to a homeless man.

Suddenly I slowed as I turned into our driveway. I stopped and stared at the lawn. And there on the muddy grass and small gray piles of melting snow, bravely waving in the wind, was one pink crocus.

How could a flower bloom from a bulb more than 18 years old, one that had not blossomed in over a decade? But there was the crocus. Tears filled my eyes as I realized its significance.

Hold on, keep going, light is coming soon. The pink crocus bloomed for only a day. But it built my faith for a lifetime.

Travelling by subway can be quite a adventure, especially during rush hours. You have to fight your way into the carriage, and that’s not the end. You also have to protect yourself from big backpacks and fight for space with this who sit and stretch their legs.

To deal with this problem, New York City has start a campaign making people take off their backpacks on the subway. The movement is also aiming at male riders who like spreading their legs to take up two, or even three seats.

Some people say that the campaign limit everyone’s freedom. Male travelers even feel it is unfair, saying that women who cross their legs also take up too much space. So the campaign has been supported by people who are concerned about person behavior in public spaces.

In fact, all countries have written or unwritten rule that travelers are expected to follow. For example, eating and drinking on the subway are banned in many cities, include Washington DC in the US and Brussels in Belgium.

So next time when you take public transportation, avoid bad behavior.
