1.

In China,I Ml eat almost anything. But I still remember the first food I tasted at school in England. We had this soup and it tasted of n at all. In China,our food is quite s ，but we like it because the salt makes it taste nice. A friend advised me to try some cheese and biscuits. I thought biscuits were the same as “cookies” in America but I was wrong. Again,I felt disappointed at the taste of the biscuits and the cheese was really sour.

2, 

 When I want to go anywhere in China,I just take my bicycle. Here in England,I have to get a bus everywhere. It's really confusing b buses don't stop automatically like they do in Beijing. You have to put your hand out,ring the bell or press the signal button.

Socialising (社交) In China when you meet someone for the first time,you sometimes shake hands. I was so s when I left my friend's house and his mother gave me a kiss. I felt so embarrassed and I knew my face went very red at that moment. I akso remember when I went around to a friend's house and I wanted to say “thank you” to his mother. In China,we often give people cakes as p. The boy's mother stared at the cake. She was trying to be polite but I knew from her face that I had taken something wrong. In England,a cake is more o given on someone's birthday.
