　　Every Chinese-language textbook starts out with the standard phrases for greeting people; but as an American, I always found myself 1 to speak freely when it came to seeing guests off at the door. Just a good-bye would not do, yet that was all I had ever learned from the 2 books. So I would smile and nod, bowing like a Japanese and searching madly for words that would 3 over the visitor's leaving and make them feel they-would be 4 to come again. In my unease, I often hid behind the skirts of my Chinese husband's kindness.

　　Then finally, listening to others, I began to pick up the phrases that 5 relationships and sent people off not only successfully but also skillfully.

　　 6 for the Chinese includes a lot of necessary habitual practice. Although as a 7 , I'm not expected to observe or even know all the rules, I've had to learn the expressions of politeness and 8 at a leaving-taking.

　　The Chinese feel they 9 see a guest off to the farthest possible point-down the flight of stairs to the street below or perhaps all the way to the 10 bus stop. I've sometimes waited half an hour or more for my husband to return from seeing a guest off, 11 he's gone to the bus stop and waited for the 12 bus to arrive.

　　That's very well, but when I'm the guest being seen off, my protests are always 13 . My hostess or host, or both, insists on 14 me down the stairs and well on

　　my way, with my repeating the “Don't 15 to see me off at the every landing”. If I try to go fast to 16 them from following, they are simply out to the discomfort of having to run after me. Better to accept the inevitable(不可避免的).

　　Besides, that's going against Chinese 17 , because haste(doing things quickly) is to be avoided. What do you say when you 18 someone? Not “farewell or Godspeed(祝福)”, 19 “Go slowly”. To the Chinese it means “Take care” or “Watch your 20 ”, or some such caution(谨慎), but translated literally(字面意思) it means “Go slowly.”

Wings of Angel

I hated going to school and I hated people 23 at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing 24 and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the 25 and seeing an ugly hunchback (驼背).

My friends found me 26 because I didn’t let others get close to me. I thought I was going to go on like this for the rest of my life 27 Angela appeared.

That afternoon, I was sitting by myself in a corner of the school — a spot where no one would 28 me. That’s when I first heard her voice.

“Hi. Can I sit down?”

I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face.

“What are you looking at?” she asked.

“Ants.”

“What are they doing?”

“No 29 .”

“I bet they’re playing games and making friends. Don’t you think so?”

Then suddenly, she saw my 31 . She just stared.

My heart 32 . What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would 33 me now.

She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know 34 your back is hunched.”

I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be 35 . I begged in my heart for her to 36 , but she just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”

“No,” I answered 37 .

She bent and whispered in my ears.

“Your back is hunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”

I was 38 . I looked into her eyes and her 39 touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to 40 myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind-hearted friend.
