One day I got into a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were on the right side when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of . My taxi driver stopped at once and missed the other by just inches ( 英寸)!
The driver of the other car turned his head quickly and started shouting at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really . So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost broke your car and sent us to the !” This is when my taxi driver me what I now call “The Law of the Rubbish Truck”.
He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around of rubbish, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their rubbish grows, they need a place to empty it and they’ll empty it onto you. Don’t it personally, just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don’t take the rubbish and it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.

The teacher stood before his class and was going to hand out the final exam papers. ‘I know how you have worked to prepare for this test:' he said. "And because I know you can do it well, I am willing to offer a 'B' to those who not to take the test."
Many students thanked the teacher and left. The teacher looked at the remaining（剩下的）students and said, "Does anyone else want to get a 'B'? This is your last chance." Two students decided to go.
Seven students remained. The teacher then handed out the papers. There were only three sentences on the paper: Congratulations! You have just got an in this class. Keep believing in ．
I never had a teacher like that, but I think it is a test that any teacher could give. Students who are not in what they have learned are 'B' students at best.
The same is in our daily life. The 'A' students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have both successes and failures. They have learned life's lessons, not only from normal education, from events in their lives. In the end, they have become people. You see, one should always believe in himself.

In the USA, there are many kinds of restaurants.
Fast food restaurants are very famous. You can find McDonald’s and Kentucky Fried Chicken in many countries around the world. You look at a menu (菜单) on the counter (柜台), and say what you’d like to eat. You pay the person who brings food to you. You take your food and sit down or take it away. There’s no need to leave a tip (小费).
In a coffee shop, you sit at the counter or at a table. You don’t wait for the waitress to show you where to sit. She usually brings you coffee when you sit down. You tell her what you’d like to eat and she brings it to you. You pay the cashier (收银员) as you leave.
In a family restaurant, the waitress shows you where you can sit. Often the waitress tells you her name, but you don’t need to tell her yours. If you can’t finish eating everything, your waitress gives you a doggy bag to take the rest of food home. You should add (增加) fifteen per cent to the bill (账单) as a tip.
In top class restaurants, you had better order before you come, and you need to arrive on time. The waiter shows you where to sit. If you have wine there, he may ask you to taste it. You can only refuse it if it tastes bad. When you get your bill, check it and then add fifteen to twenty per cent to it as a tip for the waiter.
