A

People in different countries have different ways of doing things. Something that is polite in one country may be quite impolite in another. In Britain, you mustn't lift your bowl to your mouth when you are having some liquid(液体) food. But it's different in China. And in Japan you even needn't worry about making noises when you have it. It shows that you are enjoying it. But it is regarded as bad manners in Britain. If you are a visitor in Mongolia, what manners do they wish you to have? They wish you to give a loud “burp”(打嗝) after you finish eating. Burping shows that you like the food.

In Britain, you should try not to put your hands on the table when you're having a meal. In Mexico, however, guests are expected to keep their hands on the table during a meal. But in Arab countries you must be very careful with your hands. You mustn't eat with your left hand. Arabs consider it very bad manners eating with left hands. So, what should you do if you are on a visit in another country? Well, just do in Rome as the Romans do. You can ask the native(本土的) people to help you or just watch carefully and follow them.

They were young and happy boys and girls, but their lives came to a tragic early end. On Sept. 26, six students died and 31 were injured in a stampede(踩踏) at Mingtong Primary School in Kunming, Yunnan.

The accident happened when a two-metre long cotton cushion(垫子) for gym class fell over and blocked a stairway hall. Several children were covered by it and their classmates rushed out and stepped on them without realizing.

This is not the first tragedy in recent times. Last year, four children died in a stampede at a school in Xiangyang, Hubei, when pupils left their dormitory on the fourth floor and tried to get out. The ground floor gate was closed, resulting in the crush.

According to a survey done by the China Youth and Children Research Center, about 1,600 elementary and middle school students in China were killed every year in accidents. The main causes come from stampedes, earthquakes, fires and sports injuries.

A stampede is possible anywhere. The larger a crowd, the more likely a stampede becomes. On March 31, the National Day of Education on the Safety of primary and Middle School Students, the Ministry of Education gave out instructions: If students around you begin to push, stand still and try to hold onto something, or stay in a corner until the crowd leaves. If you fall down in a moving crowd, cover your head with both hands. Lean to one side, curl your body and bend your legs.

Do you need to \of people you don't really want to talk to? Do you go out with people from work or school more often than with your real friends? Do you say yes to invitations because you think you should, not because you want to? If you answered yes to at least two of these questions, then perhaps you need to \

Nowadays people like to spend a lot of time with people at work or classmates at school. The result is that we don't have enough time to see our real, close friends. As our lives get busier, it becomes more important to spend the little free time we have with people we really want to see, people we love and who really love us.

Who are the friends you need to edit? A few years ago I read a book about how to get rid of unnecessary possessions(物品). It said you should ask yourself about each thing you have: Is it useful? Do I really like it? Do I feel better every time I look at it? If the answer is no to any one of those questions, you should throw it away. Maybe we should ask similar questions about our friends.

What kind of friends will you probably need to edit? Sometimes it's an old friend. Somebody who you used to have a lot in common with, but who, when you meet now, you have very little or nothing to say to. Or it might be a new friend who you get on quite well with, but who is taking up too much of your time. Next time one of these people calls you and suggests a meeting, think \an excuse. That way you'll have more time to spend with your real friends. 80. People need to edit their friends when . A. they have moved to a different area
