As we all know，the Americans and the British people not only speak the same language……English，but also have a large number of ways of doing things．For example，in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time．This is often true for women as well as for men．Also，most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seats to a woman and so will most Americans．That is polite，we call that “Lady first”．

Neither the British nor the Americans think that standing in a queue at the post office，the movies，the bank，supermarket or anywhere is wrong．To be on time is important both in England，and America．That is，if a dinner invitation is for seven o'clock，the dinner guest can't arrive by the time，he or she should call up to explain why he or she will be late or why he or she can't come．Of course，the Americans and the British have some differences：the Americans have “coffee breaks”，while the British more often have “tea breaks”，for example．But there is much more than that they have in common．

2．When do people shake hands with foreigners?

Future and Today

　　It is well known that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future. But do you know what future really is ? I have to say that future is now. That is to say we must treasure every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.

　　There is an old English saying: "Gain time, gain life." Then what's time? Time is something that we can't see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeable. We always say "Time is money", but time is even more precious(珍貴的)than money, because when money is spent , we can earn it back. But if time is gone away, it will never return. So, some of us even say time is priceless(無價的).

　　We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should try our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do everything before us as well as possible. And never put off what can be done today till tomorrow.

　　As we all know , "Time and tide wait for no man." If you waste today, you will regret tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter .Remember: "No pains, no gains." Today's hard work is the cause of tomorrow's harvest.
