Welcome to England! The weather of England often changes. It can be rainy, sunny, cloudy, windy, warm, foggy or cold at any time of year. If it's raining when you get up in the morning, it can be hot and sunny in the afternoon.

    In England, shops are usually open from 9:00 in the morning to 5:30 in the afternoon. On Sundays some shops are open from 10:00 a. m. to 4:00 p. m. But most shops are closed. Banks, museums（博物馆）or other places are open from 10:00 a. m. to 5:00 p. m. You can go to the parks at any time.

    All the cities have buses, trains and taxis（出租车）. People wait in line (排队等候) for buses and they will not be happy if you come to the front from the end of the line. Don't forget that, traffic goes on the left.

Be careful and enjoy your time here.

    Rich or poor， young or old， we all have problems. We should learn how to deal with our problems. Here are some ways.

    Firstly， we should learn to forget.有时我们会生朋友的气。Good friendships may be lost. Sometimes children have disagreements and decide not to talk to each other. However， this usually does not last for long. This is an important lesson for us: we can solve a problem by learning to forget.

    Secondly， we should regard problems as challenges(挑战). Many students often complain about school.他们有太多的作业要做。They think the rules are too strict. Education is an important part of our development. As young people， it is our duty to try our best to deal with each challenge with the help of our teachers. Don't worry about our problems. Let's face the challenges.

    We live in a world filled with many different kinds of people. We want to get along well with others. We also want to be liked by others. The following ways will make others like you.

    Do this and you will be welcome anywhere

    Become really interested in other people. A show of interest must be true. It must bring good results not only to the person showing the interest, but also to the person receiving the attention. It is a two-way street-both of you get an advantage.

    An easy way to make a good first impression(印象)

Smile as often as possible. Your smile is a sign of kindness. When someone feels stressed(有压力的)from his or her teachers or parents, your smile is like the sun breaking through the clouds. Your smile can help him or her realize(意识到)that all is hopeful—there is still joy in the world.

    If you don't do this, you are getting into trouble.

    Remember a person's name. A person's name is the sweetest and the most important sound in any language. We should realize the magic in a name. The name makes the person different from others; it makes him or her special among all others. If you remember a person's name, the relationship(关系)between both of you will become much closer.

An easy way to become a good talker

    Be a careful listener first. Ask questions that other persons will like to answer. Encourage (鼓励)them to talk about themselves and their achievements. What you need to do is just listen, because people are much more interested in themselves.

Mr. and Mrs. Albino, with 64 children, have the world's largest family. Not one of their children is adopted(领养).

When people hear about the Albinos' large family, the first question they ask is, "How is it possible? How can one woman give birth to 64 children in her lifetime?" The answer is simple: {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

Soon after the Albinos got married, the children came quickly, in twos and threes. The first 21 children were boys. Mrs. Albino loved her sons, but she wanted a daughter very much.

The Albinos spent the early years in Argentina. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} To travel from Argentina to Chile, they had to cross the Andes Mountains. Mr. and Mrs. Albino and their 21 sons made the difficult, two-week journey on mules. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

At times there is very little food in the Albinos' small house when there is not enough food for everyone, Mrs. Albino makes sure the youngest children do not go hungry. "The smallest eat first, and then the bigger ones. We've always done it that way," she says. Obviously, the Albinos do not have enough money for their big family, then, do they continue to have children?

The Albinos do not use birth control because it is against their religion(宗教). They could let other people take care of their children, but Mrs. Albino will not allow it, "When my two brothers and I were babies," she says, "our mother left us at an orphanage(孤儿院) and never returned. We lived there together until we were five. Then a couple adopted my brothers and I was left behind. I was heartbroken.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Even if I didn't have much money, I would always take care of my children by myself." Mrs. Albino has kept her promise.
