David got a job in a police station after he left school. He worked there for 42 years and he"ll retire this year. He worked hard in the past 42 years. But he was not a lucky man. He failed to catch a thief. He was often sorry for it.
Last weekend, while David"s wife was cooking she found there was no salt at home. So she asked her husband to buy some. In the shop, David saw a young man taking away a wallet from a woman"s bag. He walked to him quietly, but the young man noticed David and ran away at once. David ran after him. At last the thief ran into a blind alley (死胡同) and David caught him.
"Please give me a chance, sir." said the thief.
"Who can give one to me?" said David, "I"ll soon retire and I catch a thief for the first time!"
For the British, the home is private place in which he or she goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that one would be invited to a British person's home. It is rude to knock on a person's door if you are not invited. If you are invited, don't ask to see more than the downstairs that your British host invites you into. Never ask how much the house or any of the items in if cost.
To the American, most of them want their home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their lives with their friends. They may be delighted to give you a full tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your interest and pleasure in their houses.
Both British and American people will engage in quite a bit of chat and a drink or two before the meal is served. After the first mouthful, you should say how delicious the food is and ask something about it. Remember, never eat with your mouth open and make very little noise while eating. It would be nice of you to help your host in any way. Maybe offer to pour some drinks or clear up after the meal.

I still remember visiting Moscow. It is the capital of Russia, the b country in the world. I went there wmy parents when I was eight years old. I lived and studied there for one year, I had some happy memories.
One of the most interesting things of that city was that t were many dogs. Perhaps Russians ldogs very much. You can see dogs here and there. Almost each of the families had a dog. I made friends with many Russian children wI was living and studying there. They were all very nice. They had fair hair and fair skin. I played with them h though I could only speak a little Russian at first. They were f to me. The weather in Moscow was very cold. It snowed almost every in winter. The ground was always c with a lot of snow. We often made stogether.
Now I am b in China, but I miss them so much. I will never forget my happy memories of this visit to Moscow.
People in different countries have different ways of doing things. Something that is polite in one country may quite impolite in another. In Britain, you mustn't lift your' bowl to your mouth when you are having some liquid (液体) food. But it's different in China. And in Japan you even needn't worry about making noises when you have it. It shows that you are enjoying it. But it is regarded as bad manners in Britain. If you are a visitor in Mongolia, what manners do they wish you to have? They wish you to give a loud "burp(打嗝)" after you finish eating. Burping shows that you like the food.
In Britain, you should try not to put your hands on the table when you're having a meal. In Mexico, however, guests are expected to keep their hands on the table during a meal. But in Arab countries you must be very careful with your hands. You mustn't eat with your left hand. Arabs consider it very bad manners eating with left hands. So, what should you do if you are on a visit in another country? Well, just do in Rome as the Romans do. You can ask the native people to help you or just watch carefully and follow them.
