As we know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the words that are used. Let"s look at the words about describing animals. Most phrases in Chinese about the dog. For example, "a homeless dog", "a running dog", and "a dog catching a mouse", have negative meanings. But in western countries, dogs are considered honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use dogs to describe positive behavior. For example, "You are lucky dog" means you are a lucky person. And "Every dog has its day" means _____. To describe a person"s serious illness, they say "sick as a dog". The word "dog-tired" means "very tired". The words about animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how certain words are used. |

Dear Laura, Thanks for your message. Yes, I"m having a great time on my exchange program in France. It"s even better than I thought it would be. I was a bit nervous before I arrived here, but there was no reason to be. My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to make me feel at home. And you wouldn"t believe how quickly my French has improved! I"m very comfortable speaking French now. Although I still make lots of mistakes, it doesn"t bother me like it used to. My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really different from the way they are at home. For example, you"re not supposed to put your bread on your plate. You"re supposed to put it on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I"m used to it. You"re not supposed to eat anything with your hands except bread, not even fruit! (You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork). Another thing is that it is very rude to say you"re full. If you don"t want any more food, you should just say, "It was delicious." Also, it"s rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands, but not your elbows, on the table. I have to say, I find it difficult to remember everything, but I"m gradually getting used to things and don"t find them so strange any more. I"ll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope you"re having a good school year. Wang Kun |

There are over 80 known pyramids in Egypt, but the Great Pyramid is the largest of all.The Great Pyramid was built thousands of years ago for a king called Khufu. It is on the bank of the river not far from Cairo. In fact, all the pyramids along the Nile are on the west bank. The ancient Egyptians compared the rising of the sun to the beginning of life and the setting of the sun to the end of life. This is why their dead bodies buried on the west bank of the Nile. It is hard to appreciate how big the Great Pyramid is.It has over 2,300,000 blocks of solid stones. These huge stone blocks weigh average two and a half tons each, as much as a small car, and some even weigh fifteen tons. Without modern machines the ancient Egyptians cut, moved and lifted each of the stones. Many blocks came from the east bank of the Nile, and they were taken across the river in boats at flood time. It took more than 100,000 slaves twenty years to build the Great Pyramid.

April F"ool"s Day is on the first day of April. The sport of the holiday is to play silly but harmless jokes on family members, co-workers, and friends. A victim(受害者)of one of these pranks(恶作剧) is called an April fool. If one succeeds in tricking someone, one laughs and says "April Fool", and then the person who has been tricked usually laughs, too. This holiday originated(起源)in France. When the French first adopted(采用)the Gregorian calendar(日历)in 1564, some people continued to use the old calendar to celebrate New Year"s Day on April lst. These people were called April Fools. The custom of playing tricks on this day became popular in France and then spread to many other countries. Here are some typical pranks: Telling somebody to call the zoo and speak to Mr Fox. Putting salt in the sugar bowl. Setting the clock back an hour. Saying to friends, "Oh, my God! You have four holes in your coat-button holes!" Tying a string to a wallet and leaving the wallet in the middle of the side walk. When someone stops to pick it up, the pranker yanks(猛拉)it out of reach. In the United States today, April Fool"s jokes are mostly played by children, who enjoy the holiday very much. |
