    Have you ever been to America？I was only an 11﹣year﹣old girl when my parents 1me that we would soon move to America.We were on the bus then.I cried.I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing the radio program for school children again which I 2every morning.

    In fact，I think I cried very little when I was saying3 to my friends and relatives.When we were leaving，I even felt a little4because I thought about all the places I was going to see﹣the strange and5places I had known only from books and pictures.

    The first four years in America taught me the importance of optimism（乐观），but the idea did not come to6at once.For the first two years in New York I was really7﹣having to study in three schools and I 8most of my time learning the English language.I9had any time for fun.Sometimes I did not quite know what I was or what I should be.Mother10and things bccame even harder for me.It took me11to get used to my stepfather.I was often12 ， and saw no end to"the hard times".

    I had to do many things for the family since I knew  English better than everyone else at home.13things got better and better later and almost all common troubles14at last.From those experiences I have learned one important rule：Something good is certain to happen in the end.15you do not give up，and just wait a little!

    Wechat is popular among us，but if someone deletes you or blocks（屏蔽）you on it，does it mean you've made him or her angry？

    It depends．

    Maybe you have just left messages too often without much valuable information．For example，the questions are those like‘how are u？'‘what are u doing？'‘do u love me？'too often．You know，people may feel bored after answering such kinds of questions time after time．

    Another possible reason may be that you've sent something unpleasant to your friend or in your friend circle．I just blocked one of my middle school classmates yesterday because she was trying to sell fake goods in the friend circle，and I hate it quite much．

    Some people delete the one's name from friends'list because they no longer want to see it （maybe ex﹣boyfriend or ex﹣girlfriend）and they don't want the one to see their"Moments"（动态） on WeChat （maybe they publish very private pictures or life or thoughts they don't want to share with him or her．）

    So why you are blocked may depend on his or her mood or preference （喜好），and the reasons a person gets blocked are various from person to person．So I suggest you to write an email or make a phone call to that person if he or she really means a lot to you to see why he or she is dissatisfied with you，and to find out how you can make up for the case．

    Have you ever been to Yellowstone National Park，a national park primarily in the US state of Wyoming（怀俄明州）？At Yellowstone National Park，① ． When they are heated for more than a few minutes，they will break up．

    In Atlanta，the USA，there is a popular restaurant which is very special．In the restaurant，waiters no longer throw uneaten food into litter cans．Instead，② ．

    In America，a new activity known as"zero waste"is becoming popular．It is carried out in schools，cafes，gyms，parks，restaurants and other places．"Zero waste"activity calls on people to produce less litter．It encourages people to reuse whatever they can．

    Although the idea seems a little unrealistic （不现实的），it is necessary．According to a new report，American people produce the largest amount of the litter in the world．Each person produces almost 4.6pounds of litter every day．More than half of the litter which is put into landfills is harmful ． Actually，this is bad for the environment．Besides this，more landfills（填埋场） are needed．

    "Nobody wants to have a landfill lying near his house，"said Jon D．Johnson from the Environmental Protection Agency，which helps to carry out"zero waste"activity．"There are not enough landfills，so we can't put all our litter into them．We should try to recycle it as much as we can．"

    Lots of men and women go shopping on Black Friday in the USA and other western countries．Supermarket gives discounts（折扣）of up to 70%．It's a big shopping day in the USA and it into Britain five years ago．On that day，the police go to the supermarkets and shoppers are there．The police are worried that the supermarkets are tooWith the help of the police，shoppers can get in and out of the supermarkets safely．

    Shoppers in the UK are happy on Black Fridaythe clerks in the supermarkets are not．Because they are very tired on that day．On the USof Thanksgiving，people spend it with their family．Many big stores aren't open on that day．There are over 60 letters on the website Change，org．All of show that they want Black Friday to change．They think family is more important than profits（利润）．
