Knowing more about the culture of English-speaking countries is a good way to learn English.

For example, Halloween is a really fun one. Learners can   (联系)  doing  traditional activities with learning new English words and   (表达方式), such as lanterns of pumpkins, ghosts, spiders, haunted houses, and “trick or  (款待)”. Beside, when we visit an English-speaking country, we must behave   (礼貌地). For example, when you communicate with women or ladies, do not talk about the age of them. Because it’s a  (秘密) from unknown strangers even close friend. So  (警告) yourself not to ask questions like “How old are you?” and “Do you need my help, old gentleman?” Also, some westerners like Englishmen do care about manners(礼仪). Instead of asking  (直接的) questions, please memorize some sentence patterns such as “Could you please…?”, “I’m sorry to trouble you.” and so on. If you express yourself like that, they will consider you as a good   (讲话的人), i.e. a gentleman or a lady.

My sister Alli and I have been trying to get people to stop dropping cigarette butts(烟蒂) for seven years.
One day, we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground.
They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people stop dropping butts. We called it “No Butts About It!”
At first, we drew pictures with “The Earth Is Not Your Ashtray(烟灰缸)” written on them. We put the pictures around our hometown—in parks, by beaches, and along roads.
We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts does harm to the environment. Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts harms the earth.
Later, we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us. We used the money to buy ashtrays to give smokers.
We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts.
At the moment, we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes.
Many people have started to join our group since it beganAnd there are even groups in England, Australia and India!
Many newspapers have written about my sister and I over the last seven years. And we have won many prizes for our good work.
We just want to make the earth a better and cleaner place for animals, plants and people.
One day it will be.
