Job interviews can be very different from country. An interviewer's “body language” and questions, and the form of an interview are not the same around the world.

    If you're at a job interview in Japan, don't look directly into the eyes of the interviewer. It is considered impolite. But if you're at an interview in the US, you should make eye contact(交流) with the interviewer. If you don't, the interviewer may think you are not sure about your ability.

    In the US and some other countries, interviewers aren't supposed to ask questions about family and personal information. In most countries, however, personal questions are very common during job interviews.

    In Germany, your interview might begin with a very short conversation followed by a formal(正式的) interview. In Mexico and many other countries, the whole interview might not be formal.

    Now many people like the game Angry Birds. Here is a piece of good news for them－soon there will be a lot of Angry Birds-themed activity parks around the world.

    The first two parks opened in Finland last year, and a few other parks are going to open in the UK. However, people still don't know when and where Angry Birds-themed activity parks will open in the UK.

    “As a kind of online game, it is popular with people of all ages. It's really an interesting game. And the parks will be interesting places for everyone around the world,” said Peter Vesterbacka, an officer of Angry Birds Company. He also said, “We want to make Angry Birds a part of pop culture. We're just getting started.”

    Angry Birds-themed activity parks have many interesting places for children to play. They like them very much. People can see the characters and colors from the game in the park. People can also play the Angry Birds game on large screens in the park. The company wants to invite people to not only play it on the sofa, but to go out, move around and have fun. So everyone will be happy in Angry Birds-themed activity parks.

    In China, the 12th month of the lunar calendar(阴历) is called layue. The month is full of interesting festivals and customs.

    Laba Festival, which falls on the eighth clay of layue, is the first festival in this month. From this day on, people begin Io get ready for the Chinese New Year. On Laba Festival, people eat hot Laba porridge.

    There are usually eight things in the porridge: rice, red beans, peas, dried lotus seeds (莲子), dates(红枣), and three dill)rent kinds of fruits and nuts. The porridge is not just good for your health, but a blessing(祝福) for the coming of Chinese New Year.

    Laha porridge is not the only tasty food in layue. Laba garlic (腊八蒜) is popular in the north. People begin to soak garlic in vinegar from that day on, and eat it with dumplings during the Chinese New Year. While in the south, people like making sausages.

    Another major celebration before Spring Festival is xiaonian. It is usually on the 23rd or 24th day of the last lunar month. Traditionally it is an important occasion when people offer sacrifices (祭品) to the Kitchen God who looks after the family.

    Don't forget to clean your home. This is also an important thing to do to prepare for the Chinese New Year.  It means sweeping away the dust of the old year and welcoming a fresh start. Now, the last thing for you to do is to wait for the coming Spring Festival.

Nature likes to create strange things just like Lake Hillier in Western Australia, one of the most {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(著名的) pink lakes in the world. It lies on Middle Island, with green {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(植物) all around and the sea on its northeastern part.

The beauty of Lake Hillier cannot be {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(取代) by any other lake. Its water is pink even when it is in a bottle. The reason for its {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(特别的) colour is not fully understood by scientists, although most guess it has something to do with these {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(不同的) trees and grass in it.

If you travel {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(到国外), Lake Hillier is a good choice. You can take a plane to see the {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(整个的) area from above.The air is very fresh in this area, so the beautiful sight of the lake can be seen {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(清晰).

Lake Hillier is surely one of the best travel places for those who like taking beautiful {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (照片). Every year, millions of tourists from European and Asian {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(国家) visit Lake Hillier. It brings unforgettable memories to people who are interested in natural wonders.

It's often believed that only grown﹣ups can make a difference. Is it true？Tea Vogue interviewed some teenagers across the world. Get ready to be inspired （启发）. 

16﹣year﹣old Michael began using social media to cheer up teenagers of his age to follow their dreams on his baseball blogs. Michael talked about sportspeople and how they would face their challenges. 

Lesein，14 years old，first learned about climate change when he was twelve years old. His home country，650 acres of forest each year. 

With a deep love of soccer，Lesein started Trees for Goals，planting a tree for every goal he scored in a match. Later the school's soccer and basketball teams all followed him. In 2019，000 trees in forests outside of Nairobi were planted. Now the government provides trees for them to plant. 

Alexis Lewis，a 15﹣year﹣old inventor designed a simple wheelchair with bamboo to help poor people who need to transport children many miles to hospitals. Another invention of his is a special mask which can be thrown through a window of a smoke﹣filled building to people inside. 

Alexis said， "People are dying in a fire accident because they can't be saved in time，Another reason why I want to invent something is that I love physics and I use it to improve technologies. " Alexis also told our reporter that he wanted children to know that inventors can be everybody who's ever tried to solve a problem. 

These young people are certainly shining examples to show you're never too young to make a difference. 

Say you're sitting around with some friends playing video games and someone mentions a game that happens to be one of your favorites. "Oh, that game's easy. So not worth the time, " one of your friends says. The others agree. Although you enjoy the game quite a lot, not wanting to argue with them, you go along with the crowd.

You have just experienced what is commonly referred to as peer pressure, also called peer influence. You will adopt a certain type of behavior, dress, or attitude in order to be accepted as part of a group of your "peers". As a teen, you are likely to have experienced the effect of peer pressure in a number of different areas.

We are all influenced by our peers at any age. For teens, as school and other activities take you away from home, you may spend more time with your friends than with your family. As you become more independent, your peers naturally play a greater role in your life.

According to Dr. Casey from Cornel University, teens are very quick and accurate in making decisions on their own and in situations where they have time to think. However, when they make decisions in the heat of the moment or in social situations, their decisions are often influenced by factors like peers. In a recent study, teen volunteers played a video driving game, either alone or with friends watching. The researchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends were watching, compared with when they played alone. This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around, or in situations where they are extremely angry.

Just as people can influence us to make unwise choices, they can also influence us to make good ones. A teen might join in a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it, or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important. In fact, friends often encourage each other to study, or try out for sports.

While we are always influenced by those around us, the decision to act or not is up to us. So when it comes to decision making, the choice is up to you.
