Even nowadays there are a lot of misunderstandings between nationalities. Let’s have a look at what the following people have to say.

Maria Conti: I find the English people insincere (虛偽), cold and unfriendly. They keep saying “Thank you”, “I’m sorry”, even when they don’t know each other. They are even polite to their own relatives! Except for helping you find your way in the streets, they aren’t really friendly and never invite you to their houses.

Giannis Sinios: On the contrary I found them both broad-minded and friendly. I was invited to people’s houses and they all showed great interest in my ideas, Greek life and people. In England I learned that it was possible to be warm, friendly and polite at the same time.

Judy Brown: I lived in both Italy and Greece for a few years. At first there were a few misunderstandings between my foreign friends and myself. For example, I once gave a Greek friend a present for her birthday. I was rather sorry that she didn’t unwrap it immediately. What’s more, she even didn’t thank me until I asked her if she liked it! I’ve learned from different experiences that a lot of foreigners find our attitude to what we English people call politeness is rather insincere. They feel that politeness isn’t necessary between friends.

A. insincere to keep saying “thank you” and “I’m sorry” to strangers

B. necessary for relatives to be polite to each other

C. unfriendly for the English people to help your way in the streets

Being safe in your everyday life needs knowledge. If you remember the following information, your life will be much safer.

●Always notice the environment around you. You shouldn't walk alone outside. Make sure where the public phones are. If anything dangerous happens, you can find them easily.

●Your bag should be carried towards the front of your body instead of putting on your back. When a bus is full of people, it is easy enough for a thief to take away the things in the bag on your back.

●If you are followed by someone you don't know, cross the street and go to the other way, let the person understand that you know he or she is after you. Next, don't go home at once. You are safer in the street than you are alone in your home or in a lift (電梯).

In today’s world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most useful effect(影響)on the poor，but once a person has a rich life，a lot more money doesn’t mean more happiness.

PowerPoint Presentations（PPT）are taking the place of writing on the blackboard with chalk. Someday, will robots take the place of human teachers?

In Japan, a robot is going to enter classrooms to help teachers. Last week the Japanese company Honda Motor Co. showed the public its robot at a Tokyo museum. The robot’s name is Asimo. Students will see Asimo in science classes and learn the wonders of science.

Asimo is 130 centimeters tall with a round head. It can jog, walk up stairs and wave. It can also avoid（避開）things on its way and have simple talks with you. Asimo is an experienced worker for humans. It has worked as a guide in showrooms. But this will be the first time it works as a teaching assistant in classrooms and in formal teaching!

How will Asimo help in class? A teacher explained the way Asimo works to students in last week’s show. Asimo has sensors（感應器）inside its body to keep its balance.

The smart Asimo tilted（傾斜）its body when it stood on a shaking platform（平臺）. Asimo kept its balance. But a wooden person beside Asimo fell (See the above picture).

When you walk, you pass your weight from the heel to the toe. The Japanese teacher explained this with Asimo at the museum. He moved the robot in slow move. Asimo made learning science more interesting for students!

Asimo will soon help teach thousands of primary students and junior high schools in two Japanese cities. Hopefully, robot teachers will arrive in our classrooms in China one day.
