One of the happiest days of my life was a day inNovember last year. I was playing basketball with my friend Patrizio in the1 At some point during our game, we noticed anold man sitting alone on a bench (长椅). He looked very2and was holding his head in his hands.

"I wonder what's3"said Patrizio. He was always ready to4 others, so I knew what would happen next. Heasked me to follow him, and5 went over to the old man. Patrizio asked. "Whathappened?"

The old man looked up at us and said that he went for awalk in the park and lost his6. "It'snot the money I'm worried about, he continued." I had a beautiful pictureof my wife in it, and now I've lost that, too.

Patrizio told the old man to7.We spent the next hour searching everywhere in the park, under trees, ingarbage cans (垃圾桶), and in tall grass.8 we found the wallet in a bush (灌木).

I will never forget the look the old man gave us9 Patrizio handed the wallet to him. Happinessshone from his eyes, and a huge smile broke out10 hisface as he looked at the picture of his wife.

China has many special forms of traditional art. They usually try to show love, beauty and family. The most famous forms are sky lanterns, paper cutting and Chinese clay art.

According to Chinese history, sky lanterns were first used by Zhuge Kongming. He sent them out t o ask for help when in trouble. But today, people light the lanterns and watch them rising into the sky with their wishes.

Paper cutting has been around for over 1,500 years. It sounds easy but quite difficult to do. The paper is usually red. The most common pictures are flowers, animals and things about Chinese history. People often put these art pieces on the doors, windows and walls of their homes to celebrate the Spring Festival.

Chinese clay art is famous because the clay pieces are so small but they look very real. To make Chinese art, the clay is shaped by hand into things such as cute children or characters from Chinese fairy tales and stories. They are then covered with paint.

A kind of little cars may take the place of today's big ones many years later. If everyone drives such cars in the future, there will be less pollution in the air. There will also be more space for parking in cities, and the streets will be less crowded.

The little cars of the future will cost less. Driving will be safer, too, since these little cars can go only 65 kilometers an hour. The cars of the future will be fine for going around a city, but they will not be useful for a long way. Little cars will go 450 kilometers before they need to stop for more gasoline (汽油). If big cars are still used with the small ones, two kinds of roads will be needed in the future. Some roads will be needed for the big, faster cars and other roads will be needed for the small, slower ones.

Do you want to do well in exams？Sometimes your knowledge is not enough, you also need good strategies. Here are some for you:

●Before you answer the questions, if you feel a little nervous, take a few deep breaths to help you relax.

●Always read the question carefully and make sure that you understand it. Read it a few times if possible.

●Find out how much each question is worth or how many points you need.

●If it asks to give one answer, only write one.

●If there is a difficult question, don't worry. Go on to the next question and come back to it if you have time later.

●Try not to leave questions unanswered when you finish the test. Sometimes a guess may get you points.

●When you finish, go back and check your answers. You will need to check your writing for spelling mistakes.

Different countries have different eating habits. There is a saying "Eat good things for breakfast, eat a big meal for lunch, but eat less at dinner" in China. Many Americans agree that one should start the day with a good breakfast, but their ideas about lunch and dinner are different.

Most Americans only give themselves a short time for lunch because they have not so much long time to have a rest at noon. So they eat a small lunch. After work they will have more time to eat a big dinner. Also a quiet dinner at home with all the family talking about their day is a way to take a good rest after a long, hard day of work.

Eating at restaurants is also different. In China, people like to talk and laugh while eating. Very often you can hear people talking and laughing loudly, and they just having a good time. In Ameri ca it is not like this. They want a quiet place where they can eat a good meal far away from the noises of the outside world. If some people are talking too loudly, the manager of the restaurant may come out and ask them to be quiet.
