What’s wrong with the girl’s answer? She didn’t 6 a compliment (恭维)in the same way as the American people do. She should answer, “Thank you” instead of “No”.

People all over the world celebrate the New Year. However, not all countries celebrate in the same way, and in some countries, the New Year doesn’t begin on the same date every year. It can depend on the seasons, the moon or the sun.
In many countries, the New Year begins on 1st January, but people start celebrating on 31st December, New Year’s Eve. In New York many people go to celebrate in Time Square. While they’re waiting for the New Year, they listen to music, sing traditional songs and have fun. Just before 12 o’clock, everyone counts down from 10: 10, 9, 8 … As soon as it’s 12 o’clock, everyone shouts very loudly, “Happy New Year!” and they say, "Out with the old year and in with the new!" Suddenly there are fireworks and special drinks. Sometimes people sing an old song called Auld Lang Syne.
New Year’s Day is often a family day. Some people relax at home. Some families get together for a special meal with grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. When the weather is fine, many families go out for a walk.
On New Year’s Day, many people make resolutions for the New Year. They write down a list of things, such as “I will help out more at home. I will work harder at school.” or “I won’t spend so much time playing video games.” when they have made their list, they read it to their family or friends and promise to follow their resolutions.

Now I’m studying in the US, and I find there are some differences between schools in the US and in Vietnam.
One big difference is the clothes students wear at school and how they look. In my country, all the students should wear uniforms when they go to school. Boys aren’t allowed to have long hair. Girls aren’t allowed to have long or colored nails.
Another difference is about the rules for parents. In Vietnam, when we begin a new year, our parents have to go to a meeting in our class. If they don’t go to that meeting, their children won’t have a grade or a report card from school.
However, in the US, there aren’t such strict rules above.
In Vietnam, a class is only 45 minutes and we have only five classes each weekday. When the bell rings, all the students just sit in their classroom. They can’t move to a different room, but students can in the US.
In Vietnam, students can’t go to work because they can’t find a job if they’re under 18. But in the US, many students work after school. This helps them make money. More importantly, this helps them become more independent. They’re able to do things by themselves in their own way, without asking other people for help.
1. Which country is the writer’s hometown?
A. America. B. The UK. C. Vietnam. D. China
2. What are the girl students allowed to do in the writer’s country?

“I’m glad that we’ve reduced food waste since the ‘eat-up’ campaign began. But if we call on students to waste less food , we should also improve the service and food standard on campuses.” said Tao.

It’s hard to make friends if you stay at home alone all the time. Get out of the house and do things that will put you in touch with other people. It’s easier to make friends when you have similar interests.
Don’t be afraid to show people what you’re really good at. Talk about the things you like and do best. People will be interested in you if there is something interesting about you.
Look at people in the eye when you talk to them. In that way, they’ll find it easier to talk to you, or people may think you’re not interested in them and may stop being interested in you.
Be a good listener. Let people talk about themselves before talking about “me, me, me”. Ask lots of questions. Show an interest in their answers.
Try to make friends with the kind of people you really like, respect,and admire(羡慕)—not just with those who are easy to meet. Be friendly with a lot of people. That way, you’ll have a bigger group of people to choose from and have more chances of making friends.

Dear Harry,
Thanks for your e-mail. I am glad to tell you something about the customs of being a guest in a Chinese family. When you arrive at your friend’s house, you should not come in before the host says “Come in, please. ”After you go into the room, you should not sit down until the host asks you to take a seat. When a cup of tea is passed to you, you should receive it with two hands, not one hand, and say “Thank you. ”While you are eating, the host likes to ask you to eat or drink more. The more you eat or drink, the happier the host seems to be. I think you will know more about Chinese customs after your stay in China.
Yours,
Li Dong
