When you are traveling abroad, it is importance to follow the customs of the country you are visiting. If you are invited to a home in Britain, here is some advices. As soon as you invited, it is good manners to refuse and accept the invitation, either by writing or by telephoning. When you will go to the party, it is polite to arrive at on time. It is good manners to shake hand with your host and the other guests. You can take a present with you if you like, possible a bottle of wine, a box of chocolates or some flowers. However, it was not bad manners to take nothing. It is not polite to stay too late before the other guests have gone. Of course, it is good manners to write or telephone a day or two to thank your host.
Kids’health: Four steps for fighting stress
Everybody gets stressed from time to time. 1. Some ways of dealing with stress—like screaming or hitting someone—don’t solve much. But other ways, like talking to someone you trust, can lead you to solving your problem or at least feeling better.
Try taking these four steps the next time you are stressed:
(1) Get support. When you need help, reach out to the people who care about you. Talk to a trusted adult, such as a parent or other relatives. 2. They might have had similar problems, such as dealing with a test, or the death of a beloved pet.
(2) Don’t take it out on yourself. Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they take it out on themselves. Oh, dear, that’s not a good idea. Remember that there are always people to help you. Don’t take it out on yourself. 3.
(3) Try to solve the problem. After you’re calm and you have support from adults and friends, it’s time to get down to business. 4. Even if you can’t solve it all, you can solve a piece of it.
(4) Be positive. Most stress is temporary (暂时的). Remember stress does go away, especially when you figure out the problem and start working on solving it.
These steps aren’t magic, but they do work. And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a tough time, you’ll help yourself feel better even faster5.
A. Ask for a helping hand to get you through the tough situation.
B. Notice your friends’ feelings and find a way to help them.
C. Different people feel stress in different ways.
D. Ah, it feels so good when the stress is gone.
E. You need to figure out what the problem is.
F. And don’t forget about your friends.
G. Then, find a way to calm down.
When Emily Beardmore first heard that a trip was being planned by the biology class at Windsor High School, she thought about how much fun it would be.
“I thought it would be a really good experience to go with other friends and teachers to another country in an environment other than a vacation environment,” the 10- year-old girl said.
A few months later, Emily got her chance when she and 14 of her classmates, along with biology teacher Tamara Pennington went to Costa Rica for eight days in late May.
“It was not just a tour,” said Pennington, who organized the trip. “You can go to any place in the world on just a tour. This one was practical, really working with the sea turtles and practicing conservation (保护). It just seemed like the perfect science field trip for kids who think they want to get into science to see what it’s really like to be out in the field and enjoy themselves.”
Emily said her time on the turtle project, which was the focus of the trip, was “crazy”. “We were walking on the beach at night and you can’t see anything — just see a big black dot (点),” she said with a laugh. “I was not expecting the turtles to be that big.” The turtles are leatherback turtles, which are becoming extinct because their eggs are used as food.
“When they would move their legs while laying their eggs they were really hard to control because they were a lot more powerful than you would imagine,” Emily said.
Once the eggs were collected, the students took them back to a hatchery (孵化场) and dug holes to copy the hole the mother turtle had made and then buried the eggs for the 60 days needed to hatch.
“It was an amazing experience,” Emily said. “You go to another country to see what their culture is like and learn what their everyday lives are like. It made me really want to help out my mom a lot more than I do, and value what I have.”
1.What did Pennington consider the trip to be?
A. It was a common tour to a foreign country.
B. It was a journey to practice what students learned.

A. she was afraid of walking on the beach at night
B. she didn’t dare to catch the powerful turtles
C. she got crazy at the sight of turtles at night
D. she had thought turtles were small animals
3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Emily thought the trip being planned by the biology class would be fun.
B. Totally, 16 people went to Costa Rica for the 8-day trip in May.
C. Generally, it takes about 60 days to hatch little turtles.
