This is a famous story by O. Henry, a great short story {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(write). Jim and Della {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(have) two possessions. They were both {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(pride) of them. One was Jim's gold watch that was from his father and his grandfather. The other was {#blank#}4{#/blank#} wife's beautiful hair. It {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(fall) about her, and reached below her knee. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the day before Christmas, they both wanted to buy a present for each other, but they didn't have enough money. So Della went to a“Hair Goods”store {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(sell)her hair, and bought him a watch chain. Jim came home {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(later) that night. He sold his watch and bought{#blank#}9{#/blank#}set of combs for her. {#blank#}10{#/blank#} they loved each other!

    I went to England last year. I enjoyed my stay, and I noticed something interesting with the English way {#blank#}1{#/blank#} life.

    For example, you must say Mr and Mrs when you meet someone for the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (one) time. Where you get to know each other {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (well) or when they ask you to, you can just use their first names.

    One day, we visited some friends and had afternoon tea together. Afternoon tea is not just a drink 4 a light meal at around {#blank#}4{#/blank#} p. m. We ate {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (sandwich) and a large fruit cake. In England, you usually drink tea with milk. So I tried to drink tea with milk too.

    Fish and chips is {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (tradition) food in England, You can buy it and eat it in special fish and chip shops on the high street, or you can take it away and eat it with your fingers! It is delicious!

    At the bus stop, you {#blank#}7{#/blank#} push your way onto the bus. You need {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (stand) in a line and wait your turn. Sometimes people are slow to get on the bus. Once I noticed a gentleman {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (touch) a young man on the shoulder, smile {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (polite) and say, waiting for this bus.
