    My first impression of Britain is that people are much more formal. For example, in the States we use first names almost immediately but here I have to be more careful. And British people are generally more polite. A New Yorker says, “Give me the check, will you?” when he finishes a meal. But here in Britain they say, “Excuse me. Do you think you could give me the bill?”

    I don’t find a lot of differences in prices. They’re about the same as in the States, I guess. It’s the same with accommodation (住所). I think it’s a bit cheaper in London than in New York but there’s not a lot of differences. One thing is certain, though, London is not as violent (暴力的) as New York. Some friends of mine who live in the Bronx have four locks on their doors! I also prefer the subway here. It’s cleaner and quieter, although the service isn’t as efficient. On the whole, though, London is more polluted than New York because everyone there has to use lead?free petrol (无铅汽油) but in Britain it’s not compulsory (强制的).

    When it comes to work and business, my impression is that the British are much less hardworking than Americans. Sometimes I think the British don’t know what a day work means.

    (1)

    Does she have to spend more money to live in Britain than in the States?

    (2)

    Is Bronx in the States or in Britain?

    (3)

    How many aspects does she compare Britain with the States?

    (4)

    Why is London more polluted?

    (5)

    Is there any bad point about the subway in London?

    答案：

    （1）No

    （2）in Britain

    （3）four

    （4）because everyone there has to use lead free petrol 

    （5）no

    When my first wartime Christmas came, I was in basic training in New Jersey and not sure if I could make it home for the holidays. Only on the afternoon of December 23 was the list of men who would have three-day passes (通行证) posted. I was one of the lucky soldiers.

    ??? It was Christmas Eve when I arrived, and a light snow had fallen. Mother opened the front door. I could see beyond her, into the corner of the living room where the tree had always stood. There were lights, all colors, and ornaments (装饰物) shining against the green of a pine.

    ??? “Where did it come from？” I asked.

    ??? “I asked the Gates boy to cut it,” my mother said. “I wouldn’t have had one just for myself, but when you called--- oh, such a rush! He just brought it in this afternoon…”

    ??? The pine reached to the proper height, almost to the ceiling, and the Tree Top Krystal Star was in its place. A few green branches reached about a little awkwardly (难看地) at the side, I thought, and there was a bit of bare trunk showing in the middle. But the tree filled the room with warm light and the whole house with pleasant smell of Christmas.

    ??? “It’s not like the ones you used to find,” my mother went on. “Yours were always in good shape. I suppose the Gates boy didn’t know where to look. But I couldn’t be picky.”

    ??? “Don’t worry, ” I told her. “It’s perfect.”

After teachers at her children's school quietly shared their opinions about the diets, she knew something about it. "They cared for what many children were  bringing to school for lunch," she said. "Mostly packaged foods, such as chips are not healthy."
