In England people don't usually talk too much. You can go on a bus, or in a train, and everyone sits looking out of the window.
Often they read. They read books and papers. But they don't talk much.
When you meet English people, they often talk about one thing, the weather. So when you meet somebody in England, you can say, "Nice weather for the time of year!"
"But it was a little cold yesterday," somebody may answer.
"But it got a bit warmer later!" you can say.
Talk like this, and the English will think, how nice you are!
A man was going to the house of some rich person. As he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road. He said, "I do not want to eat those apples; for the rich man will give me much food; he will give me very nice food to eat." Then he took the apples and threw them away into the dust (灰尘).
He went on and came to a river. The river had became very big; so he could not go over it. He waited for some time; then he said, "I cannot go to the rich man's house today, for I cannot get over the river."
He began to go home. He ate no food that day. He began to want food. He came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the dust and eat them.
Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time.
