The worst tourist in the world is Nicholas Seottie of San Francisco. Once he flew from the US to his hometown in Italy to see someone at home. The plane stopped to get oil at Kennedy Airport of New York after an hour's flying. As he thought he had arrived home, Mr Scottie got off the plane. He thought he was in Rome. When nobody was there to meet him, Mr Scottie thought maybe they were held up by heavy traffic. While looking for their address, Mr Scottie found that the old “Rome” had changed a lot. Many old buildings were replaced by high modern ones. He also found that many people spoke English instead of Italian and that many streets were written in English. Mr Scottie knew very little English, so he asked a policeman the way to the bus station. He happened to meet a policeman who was also born in Italy and answered him in the same language. After twelve hour's travelling round on a bus, the driver handed him over to a second policeman. He asked the policeman why the Rome police employed so many people as policemen speaking English instead of Italian. Mr Scottie did not believe he was in New York when he was told so. To get him on a plane back to San Francisco, he was sent to the airport in a police car with sirens (警报) on. “Look,” said Scottie to his interpreter (翻译) , “I know I'm in Italy.

One day I was watching a movie at home . Tears 31 from my eyes as I saw a touching scene. My three-year-old son came to me and asked me 32 I was crying for. I kept silent as I couldn’t explain 33 him it was just an emotional thing. To my 34 , he touched my face with his little hand and said, “Dear Mom, stop crying! You see, everything will be fine. You are my good 35 .So just get up and let’s get ready for school.” On hearing him say this to me, I couldn’t help laughing. It was so 36 for a child to say so. Later I realized that he had repeated(重复) almost all 37 I had told him while he was crying one morning.
The first time a child begins to speak, he tries to 38 what his parents have been telling
him for a long time. Usually parents start with the words “Mama” , “Papa” and so on. But as the child 39 learning and possibly starts speaking on his own without being taught, we as parents always forget he’s still being tutored (教导)by us. The only difference is that we’re now doing it in a more active way than before. We 40 use words which we don’t want our child to say, and when he says those words , we 41 where he has learned them. Even then, some of us don’t realize the child has learned the words from us only. Instead we start to put the blame(指责)on his friends , or 42 who has talked to him when we’re not present.
So if you want your child to have perfect behavior, you’ll have to 43 a good example to him. And if you can’t do that, you have no 44 to expect your child to have such a thing. After all, the parents’ words and behavior have a great 45 over their child.
