If you are in the UK, you'll probably meet people who never talked to you before. They may       you "dear", "darling" or" love" There is no need      Why? Because those people are just       to be polite.

    Just like "sir" and "madam'.', there are many other       for the British to call the people they may not know well. It is       for a shop assistant (店员) to call you "darling", "dear" or "love". Don't       shy.

    The British also use words like "petal", "duck" "son" and so on. It all depends on (取决于) your age and where you are. For example, if you       your seat (座位) to an old lady on the bus, she will say "Thank you, petal". If you are in a bar (酒吧) in the West Midlands and try to ask for a(n)       the barman will say. "What'll it be, duck?"

    Next time you are called a strange name in        in the UK, just accept it and       . Remember to say "please'! and "thank you".

    Did you meet any problems when you used a lift? Being trapped (使落入险境) in

a lift can be  one of the        experiences in one's life. Some people may be too        to use the lift again. In fact, there are some things        when people are in trouble in a lift.

    Firstly, keep calm. Being afraid will make you too nervous to think clearly. Tell yourself to  be  calm  and  believe  that everything is       

    Secondly, use the emergency (急救) call inside the lift or your mobile phone to let people        know you are in trouble.

    Thirdly, using Wechat is also a good idea       more people to know you

are m need of help; If help doesn't arrive, knock the door to get        from other people in the building.

    Finally,       less and try to relax. Even if the workers know your (9)       it may take them some time to repair (修理) the lift. So, keep quiet and relax        as much as possible.

    English people are famous for their humour (幽默).        it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes. The main thing to        is that English people often use understatement.

    Understatement means saying less      you think or feel. For example, if       gets very wet in a shower of rain, he might say, "It's a little damp (潮湿的)       " Or, if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person        people might say, "He isn't exactly friendly." People often use understatement in unpleasant (使人不愉快的)        or to make another person look silly.

    Also, English people like to make fun of themselves as well as others. The comedy (喜剧) 'Mr Bean' is a(n)       example of this kind of humour. Mr Bean always speaks as little as        in the comedy. He always        to use his body to make people happy. Maybe what makes Mr Bean so funny is that he does things that people in the real world will never do.

    Do you have a healthy lifestyle? I think I do. First, I have many good eating habits. I like junk food,        I hardly eat it. I eat fruit and vegetables every day.        they are not very delicious, but they        good for health. Second, I        every day. It is said that if people run every day, then will have more        hearts than others, so I run for about thirty minutes every morning.       , I have good living habits. I try to        eight hours every night. That      me to be energetic(j精力充沛的) the next day. And I can study better and       good grades(成绩).What do you       of my lifestyle? Can you learn something from it?

    Imagine you are in Africa. Suddenly, a group of spots run past you fast. What is it? It may be a cheetah(猎豹) ,the fastest animal on       . It can run up to 70 miles an hour. It is faster than most        traveling on the highway. Although the cheetah can run fast, it uses its energy        and becomes tired. If a cheetah can't hunt its dinner in a hurry, it will have to rest for a while before        again.

    A cheetah is also a great hunter because its good eyesight        it find its prey (猎物) easily. A cheetah's coat is also very        The coat is tan(棕褐色) with black spots. This coat helps a cheetah to blend in(融入)        the tall, brown grass in Africa. Other animals don't see it's hiding,        a cheetah can easily catch rabbits, birds and other animals.

    Today cheetahs are facing great danger. Parts of Africa are turned into farms. This change makes cheetahs and        animals have to find new places to live in, but that is not very easy. Other animals such as lions and hyenas(土狼) also hunt cheetahs. Luckily, zoo -keepers and wildlife experts are trying to save cheetahs. May be with their help, cheetahs will grow        in number.

Dear Mr. Hunt,

    My problem is that I can't get on        my family. Relations between my parents have        difficult. They fight a lot, and I really don't like it. It's the only       they have. I don't know if I should say       to them about this. When they argue, it's like a big, black cloud       over our home. Also, my        brother is not very nice to me. He always        to let me watch my favorite TV show.       he watches whatever he wants until late at night. I don't think this is       . At home I always feel        and nervous. Is that normal? What can I do?
Sad and Thirteen.
