Now, Thailand is popular among more and more tourists from the world, including Chinese. In Thailand we should do the things as Thais (泰国人） do. When we can't do all the things as Thais, we should at least learn and respect(尊重) their customs (风俗). Here's something about their customs.

    Personal appearance (外表) is very important in Thailand as a sign of respect for other people. Your clothes should be tidy, clean and free from holes. Shorts and sleeveless (无袖的) shirts are not welcomed in churches (教堂.) Remember that you will need to take off your shoes when entering rooms, so don't wear shoes that are slow to get on and off. The rules are even stricter(严格) with foreign visitors, so even if you see a local in shorts, it's not OK for everyone.

    It's not polite to touch a Thai on the head, including children. At the same time, don't touch people with your feet, or even point with them because they think feet are dirty and low.

    If someone is sitting with outstretched (伸出的) feet, don't step over them, because this is very rude. It could even make people angry. Even if the person is sleeping, it is best to go around until he or she notices and lets you go out.

要求：1. 短文应包括所有信息，可适当发挥。

2. 语句通顺，意思连贯，语法正确，条理清楚，字迹工整。3. 字数：不少于60词，开头已给，不计入总词数。

My best friend

Daniel is my best friend. 

 There are many deserts on the earth. And the following are some facts you may find interesting.

What are deserts like?

 Deserts can be hot and dry places. Rain may not fall there for months or years. Some deserts are sandy and stony. Deserts can also be very wind y places. The wind can change the shape of the deserts. It moves sand around from place to place.

 Temperatures in the desert can vary greatly. During the daytime, the temperature may reach 40℃ even in the shade. At night, deserts can become very cold. In winter, there may even be a frost early in the morning.

Living in the desert

 The camel is sometimes called" the ship of the desert". It stores food in its hump and can go for days without water. It has large feet which help it not to fall into the soft sand. Its long eyelashes keep out the sand during sandstorms.

 An oasis(绿洲) is an area of the desert where water may be found. People and animals visit an oasis for water and food. Plants grow at an oasis. Some farmers are able to grow crops here.

The Arabian Desert

 The Arabian Desert lies between the Red Sea and the Arabian Gulf. Oil under parts of the desert has made some countries in the area very rich. The government has spent money building fine cities with lovely parks and lakes, and people live a comfortable life there.

A player recently bought himself a two- meter- long golden cudgel(金箍棒) after playing the video game Black Myth:Wukong. It is similar in every de tail to the magic stick from the game.

The stick is now a popular product on Taobao and Tmall. On these platforms, other products co- branded with the game are also selling well.

Black Myth is China's first AAA video game. Since it came out on August 20, it has taken the gaming world by storm. It sold 10 million copies within the first three days. This makes it one of the fastest- selling video games.

Beyond that, the game has had a" Black Myth" effect across several industries. Sales of home video game consoles(游戏机) have increased greatly from last year. Other gaming- related goods like laptops, keyboards, mice and headphones have all seen big increases in sales.

Moreover, its success has led to a travel boom in parts of China. Many scenes in the game are from real places. Players want to follow their hero and visit the same places. As a result, several sites have reported increased tourist activity. Some have even seen ticket sales three times higher than before. For example, the Yuhuang Temple in Shanxi Province, has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in China. Large number s of visitors go there to see its famous coloured sculptures(彩塑) from the Jin, Yuan and Ming dynasties.
