Your body is special﹣no two people in the world are alike，Although you are different from everyone else，you have exactly the same body parts as the people around you，doing different jobs that keep all of us alive．
What is inside my head？
Your head houses the most valuable part of your body﹣your brain．As you are reading，your eyes send pictures to your brain which makes meaning from what you see．Your brain helps you to remember and think，and makes sure your body is doing what it should．
What is my skin（皮肤） for？
Your skin covers your body．In most parts of your body，the skin is just as thick as half a centimeter．If you have your skin cut，it will have a quick cure and stop viruses from getting into your body．Your skin also helps you feel the heat and coldness of the environment around you．Hair grows from inside the skin．When you feel hot，extra heat comes out through your skin．As a result，your body temperature drops．
How do I move？
Muscles（肌肉） are found in most parts of your body．They work with your bones to help you move﹣whenever you cry or smile，eat or speak，walk or dance，etc．
Why do I breathe？
Your body needs to take in oxygen from the air and give out the unwanted carbon dioxide in the body．When you breathe，air comes through your nose and mouth into your lungs（肺） where oxygen flows to different parts of your body．
What makes me sneeze？
When dust or a strong smell gets into your nose，you sneeze．This is the way your body cleans up the dust in your nose．Your lungs push out the air and try to clear your nose．
What does my heart do？
Your heart is a very special muscle．It is slightly bigger than your fist （拳头） and grows bigger as you do．If you place your hand on your heart，you will feel your heart beating which forces blood to move around your body．

During my first two weeks at the University of California，Berkeley，I experienced some unexpected，funny，and sometimes embarrassing（令人尴尬的） situations．Allow me to share some with you．
But first，let me give advice to other foreign students who plan to study in the United States．Check the weather before coming! I was very sure that California was sunny all year around so I left all my jackets and sweaters in Paris．It was a huge mistake! It rained almost every day during the first week in Berkeley．
I have to say that I quickly forgot these unlucky events．Life in Berkeley is very pleasant and everything is so easy compared to Paris．For example，in only 24hours I bought a mobile phone and made the lease（租约） agreement for a flat．What's more，almost all the shops are open on Sunday，which is very practical for me．
The first thing that surprised me is that students may come late to class．They freely enter and leave the classroom many times during class，In France，students respect the teacher's lesson，so they are never late and they leave the classroom only at the end of the class．
The local people in California are in general very nice，open and active，However，I am not totally used to their habits yet．Indeed，I was used to shaking my friends' hands every day in France．During my second day at Berkeley，I shook the hand of one of my classmates whom I had met the day before and he told me "I think we already met!"
Another funny story happened during the first party I attended：A girl that I meet before came to hug me．I thought she wanted to kiss me like we usually do in France to say hello．So I kissed her and she seemed a little bit embarrassed．
I live a great experience at present，and I would just encourage any student to become a member in a program at UC，Berkeley．

How to Start and Keep a Good Conversation Going
How to Start a good conversation
"Hi，my name is Sara．""I'm Frank．Nice to meet you．"
Introductions，like the one above，are a great way to begin a good conversation．When you introduce yourself，be confident and comfortable．That will make others comfortable，too．After the introduction，wait a bit．If the other person doesn't ask a question，you ask one．Starting with a question shows interest in the other person．You could ask "What do you do？"or "How do you know our host？"But asking something a little different shows you are clearly different．"What did you do last weekend？"and "Have you seen any good movies recently？"are two topics you could ask about．Another good way to start with is "Tell me about yourself．"Most people love talking about themselves．
How to keep a good conversation going
As the other person begins to answer your question，look for the same opinion．If you ask about last weekend，the person could talk about a bike ride they took．When the person finishes his opinions，you could mention an experience that you had with biking．You can then move on to discussing other sports the person may be interested in．
When the other person is talking，be interested in them．Listen carefully to their answers．Don't look around the room．That gives the other person the message that you are not really interested in them．
If you are answering the question，don't go on and on．Answer the question and then stop．A good conversation is like a tennis game where the ball goes back and forth．
With some practice，you'll be able to start and keep a conversation going with anyone！
