As we know, there are differences between Western culture and Chinese culture. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Let's look at some words about animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, "a homeless dog", "a mad dog", "a running dog" and "a dog catching a mouse", have bad meanings. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. In English, people use the dog to describe good actions. For example, "you are a lucky dog" means you are a lucky person. And "every dog has its day" means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person's serious illness, they say "sick as a dog". The word "dog­tired" means very tired.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. But in Western culture, "cat" is often used to describe a woman who is unkind. There are many other examples of how "cat" is used differently as well.

   {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. People think the rose stands for love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.

These days, more and more people like the "city walk" around China. The city walk is a kind of city tour coming from the UK. It means tourists follow a planned route（路线）working deeply on the city's history and culture. During the traditional kind of travel, people need to follow a group of people. But city walk routes are special for every tourist. People probably choose a route on their own and move on foot without a purpose（目的）. They can also talk with locals（当地人）and taste local food on their way. 

City walkers may be tourists from other places or local young people. For tourists, by taking part in a city walk, they can learn the city's history and culture. For the local young people, they may spend weekends knowing more about their living places. And they even share their routes and places online. So more people get interested in their cities and come to visit them. 

Now the city walk is very hot. However, we also find that to make money, some travel agencies（旅行社）may make some routes without understanding the culture and history of a city. That will make tourists lose interest in the city walk. What's more, many young people spend much time taking photos to just show themselves online. 

 Making your school a better place will make everyone around you happier and will get you more excited to go every day. Besides, a better place will also make you more productive. The following are some of the ways you make your school a better place.

★ {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Do not stay silent when you see another student getting hurt by others. Speak up confidently and tell them to stop. This will help create a better environment.

★Try to deal with arguments (吵架) between other kids. When you see arguments, you can help deal with them. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} After all, many arguments in school are just misunderstandings between two people.

★{#blank#}3{#/blank#} If you know that other students have difficulty learning a subject that you' re good at, you can help them by teaching them in that subject.

★Make friends with lonely students. If you notice a student who doesn't have many friends or sits alone at lunch, make it a point to become their friend. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} So why not encourage other people to become friends with them?

What else would you like to do to make your school better?(回答不少于 5个单词)I'd like to {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

Are you an "I" person or an "E" person? There is a personality test called MBTI. It is said that if people are "I", they are {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(很可能) not so outgoing, while "E" people may make friends, enjoy parties and {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(分享) their happiness and sadness with others more. Of course they can have things in {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(共有的；共同的). In fact, experts use the {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(信息) from the test results to help tell what you might be good at in your future job. But don't take it too seriously. Anyway, never let a test tell you who you are. Don't find the real you {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(直到) it's too late.

What Jobs Are We Going to Need?

 People have to work. They need jobs. What fields have jobs? The most important thing is that we need to know what jobs {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(need) in the future?

 The medical field is going to need {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(work). In 2010, there were 524 million people over the age of 65 in the world. In 2050, the number of older people will be three times{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(big) than before. We need nurses and other medical workers to care for them. We also need family doctors. Family doctors have to work for many {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(hour). Because of this, not very many medical students study to be family doctors. In addition, there are jobs for medical researchers. They do research and develop new medicine and technology {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(help) people. Businesses want to sell this medicine and technology to people {#blank#}6{#/blank#} need them.

 Another popular field is the computer field. It is a field with different kinds of jobs. Some people, like IT managers, help people in schools, hospitals, and companies {#blank#}7{#/blank#} they have computer problems. Other people design and create new technology. For example, 20 percent of people in the world have  {#blank#}8{#/blank#} smartphone. This is a phone that can do the same things computers do. More and more people {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(use) technology, so businesses are always designing newer computers and phones {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(quick).

 What do these jobs have in common? People need the help of these workers. This is why these fields are growing. When there is a need, there is a job.
