    Different countries have different rules about social situations, so when you meet foreign friends, you are {#blank#}1{#/blank#} to learn about the culture in other countries. For example, if you have an appointment(预约) {#blank#}2{#/blank#} four o'clock, what time do you {#blank#}3{#/blank#} your foreign friends to come? If they are Germans, they will {#blank#}4{#/blank#} on time. If they are Americans, they'll probably be fifteen minutes {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, but if they are Englishmen, they'll be fifteen minutes late, because sometimes they are {#blank#}6{#/blank#} about time.

    As for lunch time, the Englishmen are happy to have lunch with {#blank#}7{#/blank#} business friends. During the meal, they often discuss business matters. The Japanese don't like to work while eating, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} lunch is the time for them to relax. The Germans like to talk about business before dinner, but the Frenchmen {#blank#}9{#/blank#} eat first and talk after dinner. So if we learn many {#blank#}10{#/blank#} of other countries, we can have a great time with foreign friends.

    My name is Betty. I am twelve. I have some {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. We are middle school students. We are in Class Two, Grade Seven. This is Miss Green. She is an American teacher. She {#blank#}2{#/blank#} us English. Her classes are very {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. We all like her.

    This is my new classroom. In the classroom you can see many {#blank#}4{#/blank#} and chairs. A blackboard, a clock and a map {#blank#}5{#/blank#} China are on the wall. On a desk, you can see some pencils. The red one is mine. The green one is {#blank#}6{#/blank#}.

    Look! You can see a ball under the desk. That's Kate's desk. The ball is{#blank#}7{#/blank#}, too. This is my desk. You can see a {#blank#}8{#/blank#}on it.

    Do you like learning English? You may think English is important, but some students don't think so. And they find it very {#blank#}1{#/blank#} to learn English. That is because they don't learn it in a right {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.

    Please often read English aloud (出声地), because it's good {#blank#}3{#/blank#} your listening. On the other hand, listening a lot can help you read better. Reading English aloud can {#blank#}4{#/blank#} help you speak clearly and fluently (流利地). You can read English anywhere when you are free You can get lots of information when you read. When you need to show your {#blank#}5{#/blank#} you can speak or write. That means you are using what you {#blank#}6{#/blank#} from reading. In a word, reading can help improve (提高) your listening, speaking {#blank#}7{#/blank#} writing. If you want to learn English {#blank#}8{#/blank#} you should read more.

    Last Saturday, I went to Shaoxing Library{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(独自). On the way there, I saw one of my {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(邻居), a {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(瞎的)man, walking across the street. So I came up to him to help him . He thanked me a lot. After that, I {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(继续) to go to the library.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (突然地), it began to rain {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(大). I had to run as fast as I could. When I got there, I was all wet. Then I went into the reading room, I saw {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(数个)people reading in {#blank#}8{#/blank#}.(无声) I was interested in reading so{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(以至于)I forgot the time. Though on that day I put {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(推迟) eating dinner, I was very happy.
