“It’s raining cats and dogs!” Although this phrase is not very common in England any more, it clearly shows how we don’t always say what we ____1__. It is often frustrating(令人沮丧的) for language learners. They understand every word in a sentence and yet the meaning remains unclear—like this sentence that actually means “It’s raining very heavily!” ___2__. It’s not just idioms(习语) that cause difficulties for people learning English.
The British are often considered to be ___3___ but very confusing(令人困惑的) for non-native speakers. We often don’t say what we are thinking-____4__ we often say the opposite! Here’s an example that will explain what I mean:
“You should come round for tea!”
Is this a genuine(真诚的) invitation or is the person just being polite? British people are less open than people from other cultures, so we don’t often ___5___ people into our homes. This phrase is one of those that we say but don’t really mean, so when no further ___6__ are given, you can probably think it was made in the name of politeness! ___7__ how does this compare to other countries?
When I lived in India, lots of people would invite me into their homes but I always thought that they were just being polite. Of course, I was __8_. The invitations were almost always genuine, and people expected me to visit them. I was always ___9__ by how welcoming people were.
In England, we often think it’s polite to offer or suggest something even if we don’t actually want to do it, while in other cultures people are more ___10__. Perhaps if English people just say what they were thinking, things would be a lot easier, especially for non-native speakers!

Things adults should learn from kids
Children can teach adults a lot. In other words, there are many things adults can learn from children. For example, kids tend to show love. Every action they do for parents, friends, pets, and people they like, is filled with love. They don't think twice before loving, and they just love. So adults can learn this: the best way to receive love is to first give it. Unfortunately, most of us have developed the habit of questioning everything. We often try too hard with love, and connect it with weakness. Actually, the only way to experience love is to have the smallest expectations, and love your dear ones unconditionally（无条件地）.
Kids never hide feelings. They cry when they hurt themselves, and express displeasure when things don't go their way. On the contrary, we adults always try to hide our feelings, and never express ourselves sincerely. We often feel happy for others with negative( x 8)thoughts in our hearts. Crying or expressing oneself is what normal people do. Never hold back tears or happiness. If you want to cry, cry your eyes out, and if you are happy or pleased about something, don't be afraid to show or share it.
Kids are curious little beings, who always try to understand their surroundings by completely involving themselves in every task they do. They have a huge appetite for knowledge, and ask lots of questions every day. This curious nature guides their life, and often leads them to simple yet wonderful discoveries. Are adults as curious as kids? Well, most of us aren't. Also, they no longer have the thirst for knowledge, and don’t even ask questions if they don’t understand something. Adults often forget that it isn't talent or skill but our curiosity and a huge appetite for knowledge that makes us worthy.
Kids live in the present, and give 100%o to any task they are doing. They never worry about the future, and since they are so busy enjoying their present, life is great today. However, with a job, money, and relationships, it does get hard for an adult to enjoy life. The best thing to do here is to change oneself, and if that isn't possible, we can live like a child. Just don't be worried about the future, because it isn't in your control. The only thing you can control is your present, so work hard toward it.
As kids treat everyone equally, they make friends soon and also play a lot with them. Through playing, they make a lot of astonishing discoveries about their friends and surroundings. They also learn a lot about life, because they are out in the open and are playing with all their hearts. So how long has it been since you played outdoors for fun as an adult? Not some serious sporting event or activity, just kicking a ball, running in the park, or any other silly game! Playing doesn’t mean that you have to achieve a purpose. Sometimes, it is healthy to just have some fun.

The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Autumn Equinox（秋分）, the 16th solar term of the year, divides autumn into two equal parts. After that day, days will be shorter and nights will be longer in the northern hemisphere（半球）.
Here are some things you should know about Autumn Equinox.
Cool autumn
As it is said in an ancient book, "It is on the Autumn Equinox day that the Yin and Yang are in a balance of power. Thus the day and night are of equal length, and so are the cold and hot weather. ”Since the Autumn Equinox, most of the areas in China have entered the cool autumn. The temperature will drop frequently.
Eating qiucai
In South China, many people will have qiucai（autumn vegetable）on the Autumn Equinox day. Qiucai is a kind of wild amaranth（苋菜）.
Every Autumn Equinox day, all the villagers go to pick qiucai in the wild. Then it is taken back and made into soup with fish, named Qiutang（autumn soup）. People believe the whole family will be safe and healthy after drinking the soup.
Standing eggs on end
On Autumn Equinox day, there are thousands of people in the world trying to make eggs stand on end. This Chinese custom has become the world's game.
It is believed, on this day, the day and night are of equal time both in the southern and northern hemispheres. Thus it is a time well suited for standing eggs on end.
Sacrificing（献祭）to the moon
Originally, the festival of sacrificing to the moon was set on the Autumnal Equinox day.
According to historical records, as early as the Zhou Dynasty, the ancient kings sacrificed to the sun on the Spring Equinox, and to the moon on the Autumn Equinox.
But since it is not a fixed day in lunar August, there might be no full moon on the Autumnal Equinox. During the festival, if there was no moon to make sacrifices to, it would spoil（破坏）the fun. Thus, people changed it to the Mid-Autumn Day.
Autumn Equinox
Autumn Equinox according to the Chinese lunar calendar, 1 autumn into two equal parts. After that day, days are not so 2 as nights in the northern hemisphere.
Cool autumn
It is believed that the Yin and Yang are in 3 of power on the Autumn Equinox day. After that, the temperature will be much 4 soon.

7 eggs on end
Many people think it is a very 8 time for doing it, and this Chinese custom has become popular around the world.

Long ago, the festival of sacrificing to the moon was 9 on the Autumnal Equinox day. But since there might be no full moon on this day, it was 10 to the Mid-Autumn Day.

Another reason for considering a visit is that the lighthouses t(9)____ can be very attractive buildings. Mankind could often not be content just to put up a basic structure, but felt the need, even in such an isolated place, to build with an artistic touch.
F(10)______, lighthouses have a romantic attraction, summed up by the image of the oil-skin coaled keeper climbing his winding stairs to take care of the light to warn ships and save lives.

Things adults should learn from kids
Children can teach adults a lot. In other words, there are many things adults can learn from children. For example, kids tend to show love. Every action they do for parents, friends, pets, and people they like, is filled with love. They don't think twice before loving, and they just love. So adults can learn this: the best way to receive love is to first give it. Unfortunately, most of us have developed the habit of questioning everything. We often try too hard with love, and connect it with weakness. Actually, the only way to experience love is to have the smallest expectations, and love your dear ones unconditionally（无条件地）.
Kids never hide feelings. They cry when they hurt themselves, and express displeasure when things don't go their way. On the contrary, we adults always try to hide our feelings, and never express ourselves sincerely. We often feel happy for others with negative( x 8)thoughts in our hearts. Crying or expressing oneself is what normal people do. Never hold back tears or happiness. If you want to cry, cry your eyes out, and if you are happy or pleased about something, don't be afraid to show or share it.
Kids are curious little beings, who always try to understand their surroundings by completely involving themselves in every task they do. They have a huge appetite for knowledge, and ask lots of questions every day. This curious nature guides their life, and often leads them to simple yet wonderful discoveries. Are adults as curious as kids? Well, most of us aren't. Also, they no longer have the thirst for knowledge, and don’t even ask questions if they don’t understand something. Adults often forget that it isn't talent or skill but our curiosity and a huge appetite for knowledge that makes us worthy.
Kids live in the present, and give 100%o to any task they are doing. They never worry about the future, and since they are so busy enjoying their present, life is great today. However, with a job, money, and relationships, it does get hard for an adult to enjoy life. The best thing to do here is to change oneself, and if that isn't possible, we can live like a child. Just don't be worried about the future, because it isn't in your control. The only thing you can control is your present, so work hard toward it.
As kids treat everyone equally, they make friends soon and also play a lot with them. Through playing, they make a lot of astonishing discoveries about their friends and surroundings. They also learn a lot about life, because they are out in the open and are playing with all their hearts. So how long has it been since you played outdoors for fun as an adult? Not some serious sporting event or activity, just kicking a ball, running in the park, or any other silly game! Playing doesn’t mean that you have to achieve a purpose. Sometimes, it is healthy to just have some fun.

Things adults should learn from kids
Children can teach adults a lot. In other words, there are many things adults can learn from children. For example, kids tend to show love. Every action they do for parents, friends, pets, and people they like, is filled with love. They don't think twice before loving, and they just love. So adults can learn this: the best way to receive love is to first give it. Unfortunately, most of us have developed the habit of questioning everything. We often try too hard with love, and connect it with weakness. Actually, the only way to experience love is to have the smallest expectations, and love your dear ones unconditionally（无条件地）.
Kids never hide feelings. They cry when they hurt themselves, and express displeasure when things don't go their way. On the contrary, we adults always try to hide our feelings, and never express ourselves sincerely. We often feel happy for others with negative( x 8)thoughts in our hearts. Crying or expressing oneself is what normal people do. Never hold back tears or happiness. If you want to cry, cry your eyes out, and if you are happy or pleased about something, don't be afraid to show or share it.
Kids are curious little beings, who always try to understand their surroundings by completely involving themselves in every task they do. They have a huge appetite for knowledge, and ask lots of questions every day. This curious nature guides their life, and often leads them to simple yet wonderful discoveries. Are adults as curious as kids? Well, most of us aren't. Also, they no longer have the thirst for knowledge, and don’t even ask questions if they don’t understand something. Adults often forget that it isn't talent or skill but our curiosity and a huge appetite for knowledge that makes us worthy.
Kids live in the present, and give 100%o to any task they are doing. They never worry about the future, and since they are so busy enjoying their present, life is great today. However, with a job, money, and relationships, it does get hard for an adult to enjoy life. The best thing to do here is to change oneself, and if that isn't possible, we can live like a child. Just don't be worried about the future, because it isn't in your control. The only thing you can control is your present, so work hard toward it.
As kids treat everyone equally, they make friends soon and also play a lot with them. Through playing, they make a lot of astonishing discoveries about their friends and surroundings. They also learn a lot about life, because they are out in the open and are playing with all their hearts. So how long has it been since you played outdoors for fun as an adult? Not some serious sporting event or activity, just kicking a ball, running in the park, or any other silly game! Playing doesn’t mean that you have to achieve a purpose. Sometimes, it is healthy to just have some fun.

Things adults should learn from kids
Children can teach adults a lot. In other words, there are many things adults can learn from children. For example, kids tend to show love. Every action they do for parents, friends, pets, and people they like, is filled with love. They don't think twice before loving, and they just love. So adults can learn this: the best way to receive love is to first give it. Unfortunately, most of us have developed the habit of questioning everything. We often try too hard with love, and connect it with weakness. Actually, the only way to experience love is to have the smallest expectations, and love your dear ones unconditionally（无条件地）.
Kids never hide feelings. They cry when they hurt themselves, and express displeasure when things don't go their way. On the contrary, we adults always try to hide our feelings, and never express ourselves sincerely. We often feel happy for others with negative( x 8)thoughts in our hearts. Crying or expressing oneself is what normal people do. Never hold back tears or happiness. If you want to cry, cry your eyes out, and if you are happy or pleased about something, don't be afraid to show or share it.
Kids are curious little beings, who always try to understand their surroundings by completely involving themselves in every task they do. They have a huge appetite for knowledge, and ask lots of questions every day. This curious nature guides their life, and often leads them to simple yet wonderful discoveries. Are adults as curious as kids? Well, most of us aren't. Also, they no longer have the thirst for knowledge, and don’t even ask questions if they don’t understand something. Adults often forget that it isn't talent or skill but our curiosity and a huge appetite for knowledge that makes us worthy.
Kids live in the present, and give 100%o to any task they are doing. They never worry about the future, and since they are so busy enjoying their present, life is great today. However, with a job, money, and relationships, it does get hard for an adult to enjoy life. The best thing to do here is to change oneself, and if that isn't possible, we can live like a child. Just don't be worried about the future, because it isn't in your control. The only thing you can control is your present, so work hard toward it.
As kids treat everyone equally, they make friends soon and also play a lot with them. Through playing, they make a lot of astonishing discoveries about their friends and surroundings. They also learn a lot about life, because they are out in the open and are playing with all their hearts. So how long has it been since you played outdoors for fun as an adult? Not some serious sporting event or activity, just kicking a ball, running in the park, or any other silly game! Playing doesn’t mean that you have to achieve a purpose. Sometimes, it is healthy to just have some fun.
