Dear Editor,
I’m the boy student in a key middle school in our city. I fond of play the piano. It is known by us that the college entrance examination is approaching. I must get good prepared for it. So I have only fifteen minutes to play the piano on every day. I don’t want to give up my favorite, and my parents forbade me to continue playing it. They think it a waste of time to do it now. How do you think of it? Could you give me some advices on how to deal with the problem? I am looking forward to your early reply.
Thank you.
John
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is one of the most diverse nations in the whole of Europe. This article will show you how to adapt to the varied culture of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Get used to small spaces. The United States is not only a huge country but also has big cars ,houses and spaces. 1. Houses, apartments , cars and appliances are all smaller than what you are accustomed to, so you have to get used to smaller things.
Be polite .Always apologize for running into someone, even if it is their fault, as it makes you out to be a kind person. Respect people ‘s personal space and always wait in line.
Accept jokes. 2. Bantering and taking the mickey are all ways to describe making fun of someone but this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Teasing someone is a common way to show friendship .As one Briton put it,“ You never make fun of someone you don’t like.
Get used to the driving. The British drive on the left side of the road . 3. Also the cars in the UK have the steering wheel(方向盘)on the right side, so you need get used to this as well. Be especially careful with your turns and remember that right turns in the UK cross opposite traffic in the same way that left turns do in the Us and other countries that drive on the right.
4. The British use different words and pronounce words differently .Look
around on the Internet or buy books about words and expressions used in Britain.
There’s more to the UK than London. London is an excellent city and the most popular in the Untied Kingdom. 5. And the green countryside is a defining feature of the UK , which is something that should be explored.

F. But there are many other cities filled with culture and wonder.
G. One of the most confusing aspects of British culture is humor
San Francisco, a leader in urban recycling, is preparing to turn dog waste into energy.
Norcal Waste System Inc., the city’s largest garbage company, plans to test collection carts(回收车)and collection bags in a city-center park which is popular with dog walkers.
A city study found that almost 4 percent of all the garbage picked up at San Francisco homes was from animal waste, Norcal Waste spokesman Robert Reid said. San Francisco has about 120,000 dogs.
“The city asked us to start a program to recycle dog waste in order to cut back adding more waste in landfills(废渣埋填池) “,Reid said.
Dog waste will be poured into a methane digester(沼气池),and the methane it gives off will be collected and burned to make electricity or to heat homes.
“Dogs and cats in the United States produce about 10 million tons of waste a year,” Will Brinton, an environmental scientist said.
“As much as we love them, our pets leave a lot of fertilizer behind them in yards and on the street but that can be a major source of contamination of groundwater,” Brinton said.
European cities such as Zurich, Frankfurt, Munich and Vienna are starting biology programs to turn waste into gas ,he said.
San Francisco runs a great program to recycle bottles, cars, paper and other rubbish and now two-thirds of its garbage needn’t be carried to landfills .The city’s goal is a 75 percent drop by 2010 and zero new waste in landfills by 2020.
