7．A group of swans（天鹅） flew down to a beach where a crow was jumping around．The crow（乌鸦） watched them with disdain （鄙视）．
"You have no flying skills at all!"he said to the swans．"All you can do is to move your wings．Can you turn over in the air？No，that's beyond you．Let's have a flying competition．I'll show you what real flying is!"
One of the swans，a strong young male，took up the challenge．The crow flew up and began to show his skills．He flew in circles，performed other flying tricks，and then came down and looked proudly at the swan．
Now it was the swan's turn．He flew up，and began flying over the sea．The crow flew after him，making all kinds of comments （评价） about his flying．They flew on and on till they couldn't see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides．The crow was making fewer and fewer comments．He was so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air，and had to struggle to keep himself from falling into the water．
The swan pretended not to notice，and said，"Why do you keep touching the water，brother？Is that another trick？""No，"said the crow．He knew he had lost the competition．"I'm in trouble because of my pride!If you don't help me，I'll lose my life…"

6．Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Internet forum（论坛） asking what"PK"meant．
"My family has been watching the‘I Am the Singer'singing competition TV programme．My little daughter asked me what‘PK'meant，but I had no idea，"explained the puzzled father．
To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online，it is impossible not to know this term．In such Internet games，"PK"is short for"Player Kill"，in which two players fight until one ends the life of the other．
In the case of the"I Am the Singer"singing competition，"PK"was used to refer to the stage where two singers have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition raking．
Like this father，Chinese teachers at Middle schools have also been finding their students using Internet jargons which are difficult to understand．A teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write the compositions with simple language，but they came up with a lot of Internet jargons that she didn't understand．
"My‘GG'came back this summer from college．He told me I've grown up to be a‘PLMM'．I loved to‘FB'with him together； he always took me to the‘KPM'，"went one composition．
"GG"means Ge Ge （Chinese pinyin for brother）．"PLMM"is Piao Liang Mei Mei （beautiful girl）．"FB"means Fu Bai （corruption）．"KPM"is short for KFC，Pizza Hut and McDonald's．
Some specialists welcome Internet jargons as a new development in language．
If you do not even know what a Kong Long （dinosaur，meaning an ugly looking femal） or a Qing Wa （frog，meaning an ugly looking male） is，you will possibly be regarded as a Cai Niao!

5．When my family moved to America in 2010from a small village in Guangdong，China，we brought not only our luggage，but also our village rules，customs and culture．One of the rules is that young people should always respect（尊敬） elders．Unluckily，this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States．
I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant．One time，when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple，the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly．I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly．As soon as I said that，her face showed great displeasure．My manager，who happened to hear what I said，took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive（敏感） Americans are and how they dislike the description"old"．I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife．After the couple heard my reason，they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences，so they laughed and were no longer angry．
In my village in China，people are proud of being old．Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty，and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience．Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience．
However，in the United States，people think"growing old"is a problem since"old"shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well．Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging，and women put on makeup，hoping to look young．When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly，they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young．I had told them something they didn't want to hear．
After that，I changed the way I had been with older people．It is not that I don't respect them any more； I still respect them，but now I don't show my feelings through words．
