Matthew Youlden speaks nine languages fluently and understands more than a dozen more. When I told Matthew how I've been working hard to only pick up a second language, he had the following advice for me.
Know why you are doing it
This might sound easy , but if you don't have a good reason to learn a language, you are less likely to stay interested over the long-run. Wanting to get to know a French person in his or her own language is another matter entirely. No matter what your reason is, once you've decided on a language, it's important to carry out .

Matthew learned several languages together with his twin brother Michael. They learned their first foreign language, Greek, when they were only eight years old! Even if you can't get a sister or brother to join you on your language adventure, having any kind of partner will push both of you to always try just a little bit harder and stay with it.
Have fun with it
Think of some fun ways to practice your new language: make a radio play with a friend, draw a comic strip, write a poem, or simply talk to whomever you can. If you can't find a way to have fun with the new language, chances are you aren't following step four.
Act like a child
We learn by making mistakes. But as adults, mistakes become taboo(禁忌). Think how an adult is more likely to say, “I can't”, rather than, “I haven't learned that yet” (I can't swim, I can't drive, I can't speak Spanish). When it comes to learning a language, admitting that you don't know everything is the key to growth and freedom.
A. Find a partner
B. Leave your comfort place
C. We work in the same office in Berlin.
D. As kids, we are expected to make mistakes.
E. You are learning a language to be able to use it.
F. Using your new language in any way is a creative act.
G. Wanting to impress English-speakers with your French is not a very good reason.

The book I'm reading of talks about afternoon tea in Britain. It is said to have started in the early 1800's. Have tea in the late afternoon provides a bridge between lunch and dinner, that may not be served until 8 o'clock at night. This custom soon becomes another meal of day. Interesting, it had a connection by the British porcelain (瓷器) industry. Tea in China was traditionally drank from cups without handles. When tea got popular in Britain, there was a crying need for good cup with handles to suit British habits. This made for the grow in the porcelain industry.

Although McDonald’s was the first restaurant to use the assembly-line system, some people think of White Castle as the first fast-food chain. 【2】 At the time, most people considered the burgers sold at fairs, circuses, lunch counters and carts to be low-quality. Many people thought hamburger came from slaughterhouse(屠宰场) scraps and spoiled meat.

【3】 They built their restaurants so that customers could see the food being prepared. They painted the buildings white and even chose a name that suggested cleanliness. White Castle was most popular in the American East and Midwest, but its success helped give hamburger meat a better reputation nationwide.

The McDonald brothers opened their redesigned restaurant in 1948, and several fast-food chains that exist today opened soon after. 【4】 And Wendy’s opened in 1969. McDonald’s is now the world’s largest fast-food chain.

According to the National Restaurant Association, American sales of fast food totaled $163.5 billion in 2005. 【5】 Total sales for McDonald’s grew 5.6 percent in 2005, and the company now has 30,000 franchised stores in more than 120 countries.

A. The industry is growing globally as well.

B. This trend continued until relatively recently.

C. White Castle was founded in 1921 in Wichita, Kansas.

D. Burger King and Taco Bell got their start in the 1950s.

E. It’s hard to imagine fast food without drive-through windows.

F. It allows restaurants to receive and store a large amount of food.

G. White Castle’s founders decided to change the public’s perception of hamburgers.

In most parts of the US, the baseline expectation in public is that we maintain a balance between politeness and privacy. This is known as civil inattention(礼貌性疏忽). So, imagine two people are walking towards each other on the street. They’ll glance or wave at each other from a distance. That’s the civility. And then as they get closer, they’ll look away, to give each other some space.

In other cultures, people go to extraordinary lengths not to interact at all. People from Denmark are unwilling to talk to strangers, and they would rather miss their stop on the bus than say “excuse me” to someone that they need to get around. They move the backpacks on purpose or use their bodies to say that they need to get past, instead of using two words.

In Egypt, it’s rude to ignore a stranger, and there’s a remarkable culture of hospitality. Strangers might ask each other for a sip of water. Or, if you ask someone for directions, they’re very likely to invite you home for coffee. We see these unwritten rules most clearly when they’re broken, or when you’re in a new place and you’re trying to figure out what the right thing to do is.

When you talk to strangers, you’re making beautiful interruptions into the expected narrative of your daily life and theirs. You’re making unexpected connections. If you don’t talk to strangers, you’re missing out on all of that. We spend a lot of time teaching our children about strangers. What would happen if we spent more time teaching ourselves? We could make a space for change.

【1】Which of the following can be regarded as civil inattention in most parts of the US?

A. Avoiding talking to strangers.

B. Glancing at each other anytime.

C. Greeting someone in the distance.

D. Inviting strangers home for coffee.

【2】How does a Dane get past on the bus?

A. By saying “excuse me” politely.

B. By tapping others on the shoulders.

C. By forcing his way through people.

D. By making a gesture.

【3】Why does the author advise making a space for change?

A. To let us create private space between strangers and us.

B. To let us show hospitality to strangers.

C. To let us make improvement on how to treat strangers.

D. To let us maintain a balance between politeness and privacy.

【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. How to contact with strangers.

B. Different rules of treating strangers.

C. The meaning of civil inattention.

D. Making unexpected connections.

For teenagers, it's great fun to explore new places and it feels like an adventure, even when you know you're not the first to have been there. But to make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles, the following tips may be helpful.
◆Do the map reading if you're being driven somewhere. It'll be easier if you keep the map following the direction you are traveling in. Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or you'll have to move to the back seat.
◆Get a group of friends together and go exploring. You'll need a good map, a compass, a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies. Tell someone where you're going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back. The purpose of the activity is in not getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up.
◆See if your school or a club organizes orienteering(越野识途比赛) activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way. This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B(and B to C, etc. ) in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity. It enables you to be familiar with the use of maps and compass and gain some special skills. In some way, it's not only good fun, but also a great way to keep fit.
