We decided to go to a restaurant. On our way to the table I noticed my mother had two notebooks. I asked her what they were for. She explained to me that sometimes it was easier to write down our feelings rather than talk about (A) them. We would write down our feelings in the form of a letter. It could be as long or as short as we wanted.

    Our first topic was “Why I'm so angry?” I wrote a half page, and my mom filled up nearly three pages. (B) I watched tears run down her face as she wrote. I never realized anyone could hide so much anger. After we finished writing, we exchanged our notebooks. As soon as I started reading my mother's words, I began to cry and so did she. When we finished reading, we discussed our feelings. ②      . Our talk helped me realize so many things I had never thought of before, not only about my mother but also about other people.

    If you are visiting England, you will notice that the English have many customs (风俗) and traditions (传统) that are different from those in China. Here's a guide to visiting England. It provides help for anyone who visit England for the first time.

    Standing in the queue

    English people like to form queues. They think it is the fair way to behave. People wait in a queue in shops or at bus stops. People will think you are rude if you don't join the queue.

    Please, Thank you, Excuse me and Sorry

    It is good manners to say "Please" and "Thank you". If someone is in your way, say "Excuse me" and they will move. If you bump into someone or you are in their way, say "Sorry". They will probably say sorry, too, even if it was your mistake. Saying sorry does not always mean you are wrong. Sometimes it is a polite thing to say.

    Meeting a new person

    When people meet for the first time, the usual custom is to shake hands. The next time you meet that person, you can just say hello. English people don't usually hug or kiss if they don't know each other really well.

    Talking to people

    English people find it difficult to start conversations with strangers. If you are on buses or trains, they usually sit as far away from other people as possible. If you want to start a conversation, the topic that English people are always happy to talk about is the weather. So you need to be able to say "Isn't it warm (sunny/windy/wet/foggy) today?" or "Do you think it's going to rain/clear up?" Avoid topics such as politics, religion or how much people earn!

    Just behave politely. Remember: When you are in England, just do as the English people do!

    We all want to protect our planet, but most of us are too busy or too lazy to make a change that would improve our lifestyle and protect the environment.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#} There is nothing new here but if you follow at least some of these suggestions, you can be proud of yourself for taking part in protecting the environment.

    Donate

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#} If they can still be used, give them to someone who needs them. You can also give them to charities. These charities will give them away to help people in need.

    Turn off your electrical devices (电器)

    When you are not using an electrical device, turn it off. For example, if you are not watching TV, turn it off. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} It's an easy habit to form which will help you save a lot of money.

    Walk or ride a bicycle

    Driving is one of the biggest causes of pollution. If your parents want to give you a ride, ask yourself the following question: Do I really need to use the car? {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

This list is far from being complete, but besides protecting the environment, all these things will help you save money.

    When you go for a run outside, chances are that you'll find litter (垃圾) all around you. Do you just go past it, or do you stop and pick it up? If you choose the second, you're part of the latest popular sport in the West: plogging.

    The word "plogging" puts the Swedish phrase "plocka upp" (pick up) and the English word "jogging" (running slowly) together.

    What a plogger needs is a rubbish bag and a pair of gloves (手套)to protect your hands. While collecting rubbish, ploggers learn to classify (分类) and deal with it correctly, too.

    ①Plogging seems simple but it does a lot of good to both the environment'(环境) and your health. It can not only make the world greener, but also get you exercise, for example, a 30-minute plogging burns around 288 calories (卡路里),compared to 235 calories burned from just jogging.

    So next time you go out jogging, why not carry a rubbish bag and collect some litter along the way?②你的身体和环境会感谢你。

    I asked my neighbor, Mrs. White, to take me to the bus station in the center of the city, so I could try taking the bus home.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. When I got there, I went inside and got a bus timetable（时刻表）. I looked at the map and worked out that I needed to take three buses to get home.

At the right stop I got off. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. I waited and waited. A man was also waiting for the same bus. He said that it wasn't unusual for the bus to be late.
