Maybe we three were the most unlucky graduates in our school history. I'll never forget the day when we had our graduation ceremony(毕业典礼).
I was known for being careless. I often fell down for no reason. Since I fell off the stage (舞台) during my Primary Graduation Ceremony, my family bet (打赌) that I would fall down again during my next graduation ceremony. The day came so quickly. This time, I proudly made it through the whole ceremony without falling...but I knocked over the whole backdrop (背景幕布) used to take pictures for graduates! I felt so embarrassed (尴尬的) the whole morning.
My friend Julia was even more embarrassed. When she together with all the graduates was sitting quietly in the hall at eight in the morning, she didn't expect her father to come to attend her ceremony because he was really busy then. The hall was very quiet and you could even hear a pin (针) drop on the ground. When all of a sudden, out of the silence, she heard "Hey, Julia!" Everyone in the hall looked behind and found Julia's father, with a camera in his hand, smiling at her!
Tiffany was the most beautiful girl of us three. She loved all kinds of dresses. On that day, she dressed herself beautifully and wanted to have some beautiful photos. Unluckily, it was one of the windiest days of our life. The wind blew her beautiful dress up in front of the whole graduate class! She didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

When was the last time you gave or received a hug Do your parents hug you before you go to school In Western countries, it is quite common to greet close friends or relatives with a hug.
You might hug your teammates after winning a basketball game. If one of your friends is having a bad day, you can hug them to cheer them up. Friends who haven't seen each other for a long time will usually hug each other when meeting.
My Chinese friends told me that hugging is considered to be very intimate(亲密的) in their culture. It usually only happens between people who are really close to each other, like couples. Chinese people don't usually hug in public, either.
But people's attitudes(态度) towards hugging can also change. I remember watching a video story about a "hugging party" that was held in Shanghai. A local artist held the party, inviting strangers and asking them to hug each other.
The Chinese participants(参与者) clearly looked uncomfortable. However, after the party, several of them changed their minds. They decided that hugging doesn't have to be awkward(尴尬的) and can actually be quite nice. So next time you see your mum or dad, give them a hug—see how it makes you feel.
1.What usually happens between good friends when they meet in Western countries
A.Hugging. B.Nodding. C.Shaking hands.
2.The second paragraph tells us _____.
A.the advantages of hugging each other
B.some situations in which people hug each other
C.the reasons why friends need to hug each other
3.In Chinese culture, hugs usually happen between _____.
A.friends B.classmates C.couples
4.What did people do at the "hugging party"
A.They were invited to hug each other.
B.They watched a video about hugging.
C.They told stories about hugging.

A.encourage people to be nice to strangers
