I want to tell you a story about myself at the airport. I wanted to fly to France with my family on vacation. Before we took the plane, we had to go through the metal detector (金属探测仪) at the airport. When I walked through it, the alarm rang.

“Come here, young man.” said the guard at the airport. “Take everything out of your pockets. ” So I took my wallet out and put it on the table. Then I walked through the metal detector again. This time, the alarm didn’t ring. My mother said that maybe there was something made of metal in my wallet, but I didn’t think so. Anyway, we got on the plane successfully and flew to France. The trip was great and I had a good time there.

When we went to the airport in France to fly home, I got into trouble again. When I went through the metal detector, the alarm rang again. I was surprised, so I asked the guard about it. “Let me see what’s in your wallet,” said the guard. So I took out everything out of my wallet. “This one is made of metal,” said the guard, pointing at the pen I bought last week.

Look at the picture. What can you see? In the picture there is a big table with a lot of things on it. There are three bottles of orange juice, two glasses of milk, some bread, cakes and so on. look, there is a cat under the table. It’s Kate’s cat. Its name is Mimi. I think it like them very much. No, Mimi. You can’t have them. All the things on the table are not for you. They are for Jim and Kate. They have them for lunch. POLLY is a bird.  Now it’s on the window. It’s eating a banana.

If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to smoke without first asking if it will disturb them. At American restaurants and coffee shops, cold water is usually served before you order. You may find the bread and the butter are free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.

Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores and restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in big cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day. Serving in restaurants are often large. If you can’t finish the meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask the waiter or the waitress for a “doggie bag”(剩菜袋). It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you are taking the food for yourself. Tips are not usually added to check. You should leave a tip of about 15% on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a waiter or waitress often brings your check on a plate, and you can put your money there. Then the waiter or the waitress brings you your changes.
