This is Jimmy, my best friend. Jimmy is {#blank#}1{#/blank#} excellent dog {#blank#}2{#/blank#} two big ears and a black nose. Every day Jimmy loves {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (get) up very early. When I go to school, I usually leave Jimmy to my grandmother. My school is far away from my home, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} I come back home late. When I arrive at my {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (grandma) home, Jimmy {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (happy) waits for me in front of the house. At eight o'clock, it's time for us {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (take) a short break. When I play {#blank#}8{#/blank#} piano, he likes {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (lie) beside me. I love Jimmy because we usually enjoy {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (us) together.

    Do you know Chinese culture? It is different {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Western culture. First, Chinese people use {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (chopstick) to have meals, but in Western countries people usually use k{#blank#}3{#/blank#} and forks. And when Chinese people eat out in restaurants, they may take turns {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (pay) for the meal. But in Canada, people often s{#blank#}5{#/blank#} the cost of a meal. Also, in China if the {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (guest) have no food on their plates, it's p{#blank#}7{#/blank#} to put food on their plates. In Canada, people pass food to guests, but they don't usually put food on their {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (guest) plates. What's more, in China it is polite to leave a little. That shows they are {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (serve) enough food. But in Western countries people usually eat {#blank#}10{#/blank#} the food on their plates. That shows they like the food very much.
