Dear Nancy,
How are you? I will be in the UK for another two weeks. I like the life here. I always take a bus to go to school. I dislike waiting for the bus too long. There are a lot of after-school
(activity) at my school. It's good to relax by (exercise). I like playing basketball best. I feel like being a basketball player Yao Ming. Also, I go to the dance club every weekend. All of my friends in the club say I can dance (wonderful). I like cola, but I hardly ever drink it because I don't think it's good my health. I'm good with my host family. I often help them (do) housework on weekends. The only problem is that it always
(rain) there, so I like taking umbrella with me. All in all, it's (enjoy) to stay here. What about your life?
Write to me soon.
Yours,
David

One day, Mr. White told the class to get ready for a hobby show. The students {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the whole morning getting what they were going to show.
All the students came back on time but Bob, the laziest {#blank#}2{#/blank#} in his classmates' eyes. It seemed that it was very {#blank#}3{#/blank#} for Bob to have a hobby. But to their surprise, Bob came back with many {#blank#}4{#/blank#} stamps in his hand. Mr. White was very happy after watching them. However, Bob was going to {#blank#}5{#/blank#} them back.
“Bob, you can't take them back until the others watch them this afternoon,” said Mr. White.
“But I am sorry they are my brother''s,” he answered. “He doesn't want them to be out of our home for long. He's afraid that they will be {#blank#}6{#/blank#} .”
“Bob, you should show some of your own {#blank#}7{#/blank#} here, not someone else's. Mr. White became kind of angry.
But Bob's words made him even {#blank#}8{#/blank#} . “Mr. White, it's true that I have a hobby. My hobby is watching my brother collecting stamps.”

I once had an unforgettable experience that has affected and directed the way I think and act now.
When I was about seven years old, my grandfather {#blank#}1{#/blank#} me to a fish pond on a farm and told me to throw a stone into the water. He told me to watch the circles created {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the stone. Then he asked me to think of myself as that stone. “You may create lots of circles in your life, but the waves {#blank#}3{#/blank#}come from those circles will disturb (干扰) the peace of all the people around you,” he said {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. “Remember that your circle may spread to many other circles, meaning that your thoughts or actions may disturb others' {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. You are responsible for what you put in your circle. If you want, the good or peace that comes from your circles{#blank#}6{#/blank#}to others. At the same time, the anger or jealousy (嫉妒) coming from your circle will also spread to other circles. You should allow the good feelings {#blank#}7{#/blank#} others, not the bad ones, because you are responsible for both.”
That was the {#blank#}8{#/blank#} time I heared my grandfather tell me these. I had realized that each person's {#blank#}9{#/blank#}or anger can move out into the world. If we are filled with doubt or anger, we cannot create world peace. We spread the feeling and thoughts that we hold inside, whether we speak {#blank#}10{#/blank#} or not. These circles are spreading into the world. Creating beauty or making troubles to other circles of life.

An old saying goes, “When in Rome(罗马),do as the Romans do.” I learned the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} of this when I studied in Russia.
One day I invited some of my Chinese friends to a famous local restaurant in Moscow. My guests and I were {#blank#}2{#/blank#} from visiting Red Square and happy about our meeting. We had a warm chat until the waiter told me that we were being too loud. We turned our voices {#blank#}3{#/blank#} .But this didn't last long. The waiter came over to us two more {#blank#}4{#/blank#} with the same message.
How bad an impression(印象) we must have left on the local people! In China, it's {#blank#}5{#/blank#} and important for a host to make a {#blank#}6{#/blank#} atmosphere(气氛).However, in Russia and {#blank#}7{#/blank#} countries, having a meal in a public place means you must keep your voice low. You need to be polite to others.
I felt bad about this. Even though we tried our {#blank#}8{#/blank#} , it's very difficult to develop a new habit.
Russians have their own special habits. My Russia friend, Andrey always looks around and thinks for a while before leaving home. I asked him why he did this. “Aha,” Andrey said, “in Russia, people always take about a minute {#blank#}9{#/blank#} over things and plans in their minds before leaving. So they won't leave anything necessary behind.”
Finding the {#blank#}10{#/blank#} between cultures is much fun. I'd like to keep my eyes and mind open.
