It was darkness there so I couldn’t see where the sound came from. I walked towards the corner. An old man was sitting there, wears shabby clothes, lie was playing erhu (二胡). “Oh, it is a beggar.” I thought. At that moment a man came by dropped one yuan in tile beggar box. The old man stopped to say “Thank you”. He then groped on the ground. While he found the box, he picked up the money. He felt it and. smiled. What beautiful the music was! It was played by a blind person. I just admired him.

During the weekend 1 traveled by air the first time in my life. I generally traveled by train or bus. It is both cheap and safer. And this was a short journey. In the beginning I did not feel very happy. This feeling did not last for long because the trip was very excited. I was soon up in the blue sky between the clouds. The view of mountains, fields and rivers were interesting and unusual. When it was time for me to finish this trip, I was liking the scene so much that I was disapproved to have to stop my trip in the sky so soon.

The important thing to be remember about social customs is not to doing anything that might make other people feel comfortable-especially if they are your guests. There is an old story about a man which gave a very formal dinner party. When the foods was served, one of the guest started to cut his peas by a knife.
