There were so many lovely lemons in a nice basket, with a sign said:" Take some free lemons, please".
I took two of the lemons, smiling. The generous1 from my kind neighbor lifted my spirits. So I wrote a note of thanks, without referring my name.
The following week there was a letter in the local newspaper. It2 :" This season I had a lot of lemons and, 3 see them being wasted, I put them in a basket with a Take some please' notice. A few days later I4, a lovably handwritten note thanking me for the lemons no name. The note was completely5 I would like to thank this person for making me happy."
I knew this message was from my neighbor Grace. It warmed my heart. I never 6 simple exchange of kindness could result in such a wonderful experience for both of us. Since that day, every time I walked past the house, it would7 failed to cheer me up.
Then one day, a woman was outside the house and spoke on her phone, I heard her say,
"Mom would never want me to sell this house".
I asked." Excuse me, but is Grace OK?" She said," My mother8."
Shocked by this news, I said slowly," I'm so sorry for your loss." Then I was9 for words. To10 the silence, I told Grace's daughter the story of the lemons." So that was you! You'd be11 at how much it meant to her!" She said excitedly.
After that I got familiar with Grace's daughter, Sarah, and I developed a 12friendship with her. As Sarah had no13 to sell her parents' house, I decided to rent it.
I look after Grace's garden carefully. Every year, when the lemon tree produces its fruit, I put out a basket14 lemons and put with a sign. I just want to15 my neighbors to take some just as that Grace did.

In Britain you may often hear "Drop in any time" or "Come to see me soon", but you can't really do that. People just say those things to make you feel welcome. It is better to telephone before visiting someone at home. If you receive a written invitation to an event that says "RSVP", you should reply to let the person who sent the invitation know whether or not you plan to go.
You should never accept an invitation unless you really plan to go. You may refuse by saying, "Thank you for inviting me, but I will not be able to come." If, after accepting, you are unable to go, be sure to tell those who are expecting you as soon as possible that you will not be there. Although it is not necessarily expected that you give a gift to your host, it is considered polite to do so, especially if you have been invited for a meal. Flowers, chocolate, or a small gift are all appropriate(合适的). A thank-you note or telephone call after the visit is also considered polite and is an appropriate way to express your appreciation for the invitation.
Driving a car at high speed along a highway seems to be fun. You need only to follow the bright traffic signs beside the highways and it will take you to where you wish.
But to a London taxi driver, driving is not an easy job. A taxi driver has to have not only good driving skills but also a good knowledge of the city of a London, from the smallest lane(小巷) to the most popular bar around. He has to be at the service of all kinds of passengers at all times.
A certain London taxi driver told of his job as follows.
During the night it is quite usual for him to stop two or three times for some refreshments (点心). He said. "I never drink when I'm working —- I would lose my licence"
He normally goes home between 2 and 3 O'clock in the night. There are times he has to stay longer and try to make more runs. He said, "That's the worst thing about working for yourself. If you don't make the money, no one is going to give it to you."
London taxi drivers not only 'take' but also 'give'. Every summer hundreds of children from London will go for a day at the sea— by taxi! Their rides are paid by the taxi drivers, and these fares(车费) all go to the 'London Taxi Fund for Underprivileged Children. At the sea, they are met by the mayor, and a lunch party is also held in honour of the taxi drivers and the children. After a happy day running around the sea beaches and visiting the market, the children go home again-- by taxi, and free of charge, of course!
I'm a Chinese student studying in Canada. I have been a boarder(寄宿生) with the Carsons for more than a year and a half.
The Carsons live in their own house, which has four bedrooms including the one in the basement(底层) which I live in. Judy does all the work in the house and Andrew is responsible for the work in the garden. When they go out in the evening, they often ask me to look after their children.
Judy's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Morris, lived in another city. Judy was their only child and naturally they doted on(溺爱) Judy's children. They often sent the children presents.
Last April Mr. Morris died. Now that Mrs. Morris was quite alone, I expected that Judy would want her to come and live with them. One day, Margaret told me grandma was coming to live with them and her daddy and mummy would want my room back. The news didn't surprise me and the next day I went to Judy and asked her about it. I said I couldn't think of living in their basement room any longer if it was needed for Mrs. Morris. Judy seemed surprised at first. Then she told me there was no deed for me to move, for they hadn't yet come to any decision about her mother coming to live with them. "Naturally I'm worried about my mother. She has been in poor health." She smiled sadly and added. "To be honest, Andrew and my mother have never got on well. We'll wait a bit and see what happens. Perhaps Moter will be all right living herself, of perhaps they will both change their minds."
That was six months ago. During this time I've heard that Mrs. Morris has had two illnesses and that her health has got worse. A nursing home was mentioned once but Mrs. Morris refused to go there. So up to now she's still living alone and I'm still living in the basement room.

The Great Wall is very famous. Every many tourists come to visit it.
Last Saturday I went to the Great Wall with one my friends. On the wall, we saw many volunteers working in the sun. They helped the old people carry bags, took photos for tourists and answered people's questions. We were deeply moved by what we saw.
On that day, we not only enjoyed the beauty of the Great Wall, but also felt the love from the volunteers. I hope that everyone can reach out a to help others.

"How are you?" is a nice question. It's a friendly greeting that people in the United States use. It's a question that often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks, "How are you?" expects to hear the answer "Fine," even if the person isn't fine. The reason is that "How are you?" isn't really a question and "Fine" isn't really an answer. They are common ways of saying "hello" or "hi".
For example, when someone asks "Do you agree?", the other person may be thinking, "No, I don't. I think you're wrong." It isn't polite to disagree very strongly, so he might say, "I am not so sure."
People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says, "I've got to go now," or the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse such as "Someone is at the door," or, "Something is burning on the stove." The person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say so. An excuse is polite, and it doesn't hurt the other person's feelings.
Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an opinion, or ending a conversation, people often don't say exactly what they are thinking.
A. This is a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone.
B. You'd better not to tell the truth to your family.
C. However, "How are you?" is also an unusual question.
D. The excuse may be real, or not.
E. Sometimes, people don't say exactly what they mean.
F. If you disagree with others, they will hate you.
G. This is one way of being nice to people, and it's a part of the game of language.
