Body language is one of the most powerful means of communication. People around the world show all kinds of feelings, wishes and attitudes that they might never speak aloud. The most universal facial expression is the smile. People usually smile to show happiness and make people feel comfortable. But sometimes it does not always mean that we are truly happy, however. Smiles around the world can be false, hiding other feelings like anger, fear or worry.However, the general purpose of smiling is to show good feelings. From the time we are babies, we show unhappiness or anger by frowning. Making a fist and shaking it almost always means that someone is angry and threatening another person.
There are many ways around the world to a show agreement, but nodding the head up and down is used for agreement almost worldwide

People in many places celebrate Christmas on December 25.
In the USA, Christmas is a long holiday. Shops are usually not open on Christmas Day. And family members have a party together. There are usually Christmas Trees in houses, and children can find presents from their parents in the trees. In many places, children put a stocking(长筒袜)on the bed, because they think Father Christmas will put nice presents in the stocking at night.

I had a good time on my vacation. I spent my vacation trekking(徒步旅行)in Nepal, a small country in the Himalaya Mountains of Asia.
On the trekking vacation, I walked for a long time through the mountains. There are very few roads in Nepal, so trekking is the best way to travel. It will be better if you have a guide. The guides know the best paths to take and they can also help trekkers with their bags. Sometimes our guide cooked food for us. Every day, we trekked for about four hours in the morning, and two hours in the afternoon. We slept in the large tents. It was very interesting. I didn't want to go home in the end.

Do you often use a cellphone? Do you take the subway to school every day? These items make our modern life easier. But do you know how we should behave properly while using them? The following suggestions might be helpful. For cellphone users
Keep your voice down when you make a phone call in public. Shouting on the phone may make others feel uncomfortable. And you'd better not use it during an appointment(约会).
Stop sending messages or playing games with your cellphone at a dinner or a party. It's a good time to communicate(交流)with your family and friends.
Don't make or answer a call while driving. It is not only very dangerous for both you and your passengers but also against the law. For subway passengers
You are supposed to wait in line while buying tickets and getting on the subway.
You're not allowed to eat, drink or smoke on the subway train. The smell and noise may trouble others. It's our duty to keep the train clean and tidy. Besides, smoking is bad for health.
You can't take pets on the train. As we all know, animals may spread diseases(传播疾病)and get the train dirty.
You'd better not lie across the subway seats even if the train isn't crowded. Offering your seat to someone who needs it is regarded as good manners.
