John is eight years old, and he is a very funny boy. He works hard, so he is good at his subjects. And his teachers and parents like him very much. But he has a very big head.
Last year, he spent ten days in his uncle's home on summer vacation. His uncle lives in a mountain village and it's about four hundred miles away from his city. He took a train to a small town. There his uncle waited for him and took him to his house by bike.
John made some friends soon. They played games and swam in the river happily. But one afternoon he cried to his aunt, "All the children make fun of me. They say I have a big head."
"Don't listen to them," his aunt said. "You have a beautiful head. Now stop crying and go to the store to buy fifty potatoes."
"Where is the shopping bag?"
"Oh, dear. I haven't got one. Use your hat."

According to the traditional Chinese custom, 2018 is just the year of Dog. Ranking as the eleventh animal in the Chinese zodiac-the Shengxiao, Dog is a symbol of loyalty(忠诚)and honesty.
①
Words and phrases including dogs (Gou in Chinese) are commonly used by young people when telling jokes about themselves. For example, you can say "Valentine's Day has nothing to do with me since I am a single dog." It is believed that dog related words and phrases usually have good humour.
②
Among some young people, adding“dog”to a friend's name has the meaning of a close relationship. One of the most famous examples in China is that the actor Lin Gengxin is called Lin Gou by his close friends and fans.
③
Kids with pleasant names are easy to bring up, according to an ancient Chinese saying. Parents in the countryside prefer to give nicknames(绰号)including Gou Sheng and Gou Dan to their kids in the hope that they are as easy to be raised as dogs.
④
Since dogs are considered to have many good qualities(品质), the word is included in more than 10 Chinese metaphors. For example, "serve like a dog or a horse" is used to describe someone who is ready to work hard for the people who have powers.
A. Take out one earphone. B. But do you have music manners? C. It's up to you! D. Besides, loud music can also be bad for your ears. E. Turn them off! |
Music Manners (礼仪)
You probably know you should say "please" and "thank you" at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}
Keep it down! You have to notice the volume (音量) of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry.
{#blank#}2{#/blank#}
{#blank#}3{#/blank#} You need to know when to turn your MP3 player off and put it away. Libraries and schools don't allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums. They don't have rules, but it would be rude (粗鲁的) to have your MP3 player on.
Take one out! Once in a while it's OK just to take out one earphone. Imagine you are listening to music on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}, and you can still tell him the way with one earphone, and then put it back and continue listening to your music. You can also do this when you order food at a fast food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it's not for you.
In a word, you can decide what the best music manners are. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}
