We all know that some things are obviously right. For example, it is right to be kind to other people. It is also right to look after the environment. Some things are wrong, too. For instance, we should not hurt or bully others, nor should we litter. Rules often tell us what is right or wrong.
Rules can help the public make the right , and remain safe. Car drivers have to obey traffic regulations that tell them the right things to do on the road to avoid crashes. Cyclists who give signals before turning or stopping help prevent .
If people follow rules without taking other matters into consideration, it will be for them to form what is sometimes called a “black and white” view. For example, they may believe that people should always tell the truth, and that lying is acceptable. Such people always stick to their views, even if it means that they may get into trouble.
Sometimes it may not be so easy to know what is right or wrong. Some people choose not to eat meat because they believe that it is cruel to eat animals, but others argue that they can eat meat and be kind to animals; some insist that stealing is always wrong, but others think that one does not need to feel when stealing some food to eat, if lives in a really poor area and he is starving. Rules help us live together in harmony, because they show us the right way to _ others. However, some people argue that rules may be confusing, having observed that rules change all the time, and that some schools have some regulations and other have different ones --- so who is to __ what is right?

For foreigners in China, food isn’t simply a meal. It’s sometimes a . I often fail to order the right food and use chopsticks correctly when I sit down in a restaurant.
Because not every dish has a picture on the menu, food becomes a guessing game. My father and I often what kind of vegetables or meat we’re eating. In one of our favourite Sichuan restaurants, it took three waiters 15 minutes to take our order for . I simply wanted water, but my father wanted to try one of the fresh juices listed on the menu. There were two , however. There were neither pictures nor English on the menu. Finally, he just ordered a Coca Cola.
One of our most embarrassing(令人尴尬的) experiences was at a famous restaurant. It was always , so we thought it might be a good restaurant to visit. We had the most difficult time ordering our meal, since there were so many choices. Luckily, the waiter was very and successfully understood us. During the dinner, noodles slipped(滑落) through my chopsticks onto the table lots of times. Once, I tried to pick up a dumpling for my father, but I it on his shorts.

“I love you” might be one of the most important combinations of three words in the English language. It’s the that a romantic relationship is serious. Besides, it also shows the closeness for parents, children or the ones who you love.
In Putonghua, “I love you” as “Wo ai ni”, but the way it’s used in China might be a little different, and most Chinese people are wondering .
The Global Times reports that some online videos showing children telling their parents “I love you” have become in China. One of them, filmed by an Anhui TV station, shows a number of college students telling their parents they love them. “Are you drunk?” asked a parent. In another video, shot by a Shanxi TV station, the parents’ responses (反应) are still mixed. For example, a father responded bluntly (率直地) — “I am going to a meeting, so much for that.”
Why don’t Chinese families use those words? “The parents’ responses show that many Chinese are not good at their feelings like that,” Xia Xueluan, a sociologist from Peking University, told the Global Times, “They are used to educating children with negative (否定的) language.”
Still, that doesn’t that love can’t be shown. In another article, Zhao Mengmeng, a 31-year-old woman, said she had never told her father she loved him face-to-face she found it a bit strange. Sometimes actions speak louder than words. However, Zhao gave her father a photo album recording photographs of them together on every one of her birthdays. The pictures were on the Internet later, being forwarded (转发) hundreds of thousands of times on Weibo.
