第一篇:
If you are hungry,what will you do?You may eat your favorite meal and be contented after that.Just like your stomach,your mind can be hungry.But it never lets you know,because you keep it busy thinking about your dream lover,favorite star and many such absurd (荒谬的)things.
The hunger of the mind can be satisfied through a lot of reading.
Reading has been the most helpful tool used by us from childhood.There are so many books which will angwer all your questions.When you read a book,you don't just full your eyes through the lines,but your mind also explains it to you.The interesting part of the book is kept in your mind as a seed(种子).Now this seed is unknowingly(不知不觉地)used by you in the future to develop new ideas.
The more books you read,the more your mind will open up.Also this improves your speech skills a lot and makes a big contribution(贡献)to your vocabulary.Please give food to your thoughts by reading,reading and more reading !
第二篇:
Gift giving is different from culture to culture and person to person.
When giving gifts,sometimes color is important.For example,for many Chinese people around the world,red is a lucky color,and people often like to wrap(包装)gifts in this color.However,did you know that in Korea(朝鲜),red is a color of death?That is why you should not wrap gifts in this color if you are givingg a gift to a Korean person.
What about western countries?In western countries,the color of wrapping paper is not really important.But color does matter when giving flowers,especially roses.You should not give red roses to a western person you don't know very well because they are a symbol(象征)of love.
You could give yellow roses instead as these are a symbol of friendship.You could also send pink roses as gifts to say thank you.
What other things should you remember when giving gifts to someone from a different culture? Well,one thing you should keep in mind is the person’s religion(宗教).When choosing a gift for a Muslim(回教徒的)or Jewish(犹太族的)friend,you should never get food including pork,or things made from pigskin.Another thing that you should not get for a Muslim person is alcohol(酒).
