When people go to England, they must learn something about transportation there.
In England, cars, buses and bikes must keep to the left side of the street. If a person wishes to cross a street, he must stop and either look at the traffic lights or look both ways down the street. And instead of looking left first, as we do in China, they look right first.
To get about in London, visitors should learn to use buses and the subways. First of all they must know which direction (方向) they are going to and which bus and which subway they must take. At the bus stop they wait for buses to come. As soon as they get on the bus, they must pay for their tickets.

Three Things to Do Before You Are 18
Are you bored with your daily life? Here are some things you should try before you are 18, because after that it’s too late.
Learn to swim

Being a good team player is an important skill in life. You can’t just think of yourself, but have to work well with other people.

Teams usually have a good social life too – you’ll go to lots of parties and make many friends.

One of the best hobbies for under – 18s is collecting things. You could collect kinds of stamps, or you could collect things that make you remember what you have done, like cinema tickets for films you have seen or e-mails from friends.

You may have heard of the famous saying, "East or West, home is the best." What does the word "home" mean to you? How do you say the word in French? In Chinese? In your language? Although people usually know what the word means, it sometimes has no exact translation. It's not surprising, because the idea of home is different from country to country, and from person to person. A home is more than a roof and four walls. It's the cooking, eating, talking, playing and sleeping that go on inside. And at home you usually feel safe and relaxed.
Homes look different in different countries. They also have different things inside. For example, in cold northern Europe, there's a fire in the living room or kitchen and all the chairs face it. In the south, where the sun shines a lot and it's more important to keep the heat out, there are small windows and cool stone floors.
