The British people are famous for being quite reserved(保守的)。 We are known around the world for having the biggest “personal___1_____”—the distance between us and the person we are 2 to.

My natural British reaction is to 6 back and move away, even though I realize it is a friendly gesture by the Chinese person.
I have 7 many people holding hands or putting their arms around each other as they walk along the streets of Beijing . This would rarely be seen in the UK, even between very close friends.
And 8 at someone in Britain is considered very 9 . But here, I find myself being stared at often. It 10 me long to realize this was not rude in China, but a 11 of curiosity.
I visited Taian last week, where the local people are 12 used to westerners. An elderly woman couldn’t believe her 13 when she saw me.。 And 14 feel offended (使不舒服的)by her staring at me, I was 15 to see her smile back when I said “Nihao”.
When I visited one of Taian’s middle school to talk about English learning , the students aske d me to 16 their notebooks. And one girl asked to have her picture taken with me. I 17 like a celebrity(名人).
I have 18 over the last month how true it is that the British are very 19 . We can learn a lot about 20 from the China’s culture and habits. And I am learning more every day.

When I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called “Brownie”, My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games.Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.
One days, as I was getting her food, she chewed up(咬破) one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl.” She looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.
Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she' d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we'd be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone.
