You want to know about my staying in America,right?Well,to tell you the truth,it is really an eye-opening experience study here.

In China,I had English classes five times a week since fifth grade.However,I didn‘t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School,Conmecticut.

When I first studied English,I was told to say, ―I am fine.‖when people say ―How are you ?‖But in the US,I found that people say, ―I am good.‖or ―Ilm tired.‖

One day ,someone greeted me with ―What‘s up ?‖It ,made me confused.I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn‘t know what to say.

Since then,I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures. China ,girls try every possible way to get their skin paler,or ―whiter.‖

I also surprised by how hard-working .US students are.In China,schoolwork is almost everything ,so we study hard and that‘ it.But here,a ―good‖student gets good grades,does a lot for the public and plays sports or music.

The kids here are so talented ,I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports.

People often say that the Englishman‘s home is his castle.They mean that the home is very important and personal to him.Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats,and many people own their homes.This means that they can make them individual（个体的）;they can paint them,and change them in any way they like.Most house have a garden,even if it is a very small one,and the garden is usually loved.The house and the garden are the private（私人的）space of the individual.

People usually like to mark their space.Are you sitting now in your home or on a train?have you marked the space around yourself as your?If you are on the train you

may put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you.If you share a flat you may have one corner or chair which is your own.

Once I was travelling on a train to London.I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us .The man on the space on my side of the table at all.

Most boarding schools have a ―light out‖ time. So when it‘s time to go to bed, all the lights in the bedrooms are turned off. There are house-masters to take care of students all the time, especially after school hours.

Nearly all students at boarding schools wear a school uniform. Boys usually wear a shirt and a tie, and girls wear a white blouse, sometimes also a tie and a skirt. As students get older, the rules become less strict.

It‘s not easy to be an astronaut‘s son．Everybody expects you to be special or perfect．I

often wonder how my father ever had a son like me．I mean he‘s so special and so good at

everything he does．Even in middle school he was class president and captain of the football team．

Well，to be honest，I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something

special—like saving a child from a burning building or discovering a new star．I was daydreaming at school one morning when my teacher said there would be a Father‘s Day writing competition for the whole sch001．―I hope we have a winner right here in my class．‖

When I got home，I started to think about what to write．My father is an astronaut．N0，I wouldn‘t start like that．That was the way others saw him．How did I see my father? Hmm． I saw him sitting with me in the dark when I had a terrible dream．I remembered how he hugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car．Yes，these were the things I was going to write．To me，he wasn‘t just a world—famous astronaut．He was my dad． My parents and l went to school Thursday night．There were so many people in the big hall! My dad looked at me，and I shrugged(耸肩)．

The third prize was announced and it was not me．1 was relieved(释然)and disappointed at the same time．The second prize was announced．It was me．

1 went up to the stage and read what I had written，―My father‘s son‖．When I finished，the people stood up and cheered．I saw my father blowing his nose．Tears were running down my mother's face．Dad cleared his throat and put his hand on my shoulder．―Son，this

is the proudest moment of my life．‘‘

Feeling left out?

A reader wrote in to say that she was feeling lonely at break because her best friend

wasn’t around．Here‘s our advice to her—and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes．

It’s hard when a best friend isn‘t around—maybe because she moved to a different

school or a different class．You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime．You want to have new friends．but how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has their friends．But remember, there‘s always room for more friends． 。．

Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you‘d like to play

with at break．Look for chances to say hi to them，smile，and be friendly．Offer to share something or express your appreciation(欣赏)to them．Invite someone to play with you or

say “Do you want to sit here?‖ in the lunchroom．When you‘re at break，walk over to kids you want to play with．act friendly，and say ―Hi，can l play, too?‖ or just join in．

If you have trouble doing or if you‘re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends．Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends．The best way to make friends is to be a friend．Be kind，be friendly，share，say nice things，offer to help—and pretty soon，you‘ll have one，or two，or even more new friends.

You might still miss that special best friend．But when you see each other, you can share something you didn‘t have before she left：You can introduce her to your new friends!

Who wants to carry a bulky bag to school? No children. Nobody wants one shoulder to be lower than the other, and paining（疼痛）too. In India, most of us would look at the reduction（减少）of textbooks as a way out. But in a country like America, there are always more choices. A company called goReader has created a "school bag" which is the size of a laptop computer（笔记本电脑）, weighing about 2.5 kg. The goReader has a color screen and can "hold" all the textbooks that a student may need, says a report in 'The Asian Age' newspaper.

The company plans to work closely with the publishers（出版商） of textbooks so that these books can be supplied on the Internet. All the students will have to do is to download（下载） their textbooks. Making notes and marking important parts of a lesson can be done just as lots of students have done on their textbooks before.

At present, the plan is being tested out in a university. Richard Katzmann, the owner of the company is having his creation tested at Chicago's DePaul University, where he studied. Does that mean it is goodbye to the new paper, and the smell of the black ink?

Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, ―Happiness depends upon ourselves.‖ In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier. The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future —for example, getting into college or getting a good job —that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life‘s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several

close friends often live happier and healthier lives.

Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity. Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.

A. Money Makes You Happy B. The Secrets of Happiness
