Living in a new country gives me many surprises. The first surprise was the way that the U. S. people ______.

One day I saw someone was having a public speech in a square. I thought it would be a______ speech. But I soon found it became a kind of entertainment show.

The speaker told the listeners to protect the environment with humorous words. Later he said some people's behaviour didn't go with their______. He took the example of Taylor Swift's song We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.

He said that since Swift doesn't want to be with the boy any more, she doesn't need to speak it aloud, she doesn't need to sing______she still keeps in touch with that guy. It sounds like she is a hypocrite(偽君子).

Then he sang the song in a______way. The listeners laughed out loudly. I felt a little______ because Swift is my favourite star. I couldn't understand why they______ Swift.

As time goes on, I find many U. S. people make fun of others.______they don't mean to hurt them. They do that to show closeness and humour. And people who are laughed at ______ get angry. Now I understand the speaker ______. Now I've got used to the way the U. S. people speak.

Last summer, I went to a river trek (徒步旅行) with some British friends. The river was not wide, but it was running fast. The rocks in the river were so slippery (滑的) that it was hard for us to walk. We walked carefully, but our shoes and trousers were still wet. I was getting very cold and tired. I wanted to stop, but when I saw other kids moving so fast, I felt sorry. This encouraged me to keep following them, even though I was far behind. It was even more difficult during the last part of the walk. I became so tired that I lost my footing and fell several times. But with the help of my friends, I got to my feet and kept going each time I fell.

Finally, we arrived by a waterfall. Everybody jumped into the water from a high rock. When it was my turn, I was afraid and tried to hide around a corner. My friends noticed this and encouraged me, “Come on, Kevin! You can do this!” With my eyes closed, I jumped into the water.

Although I’m not as strong as my British friends, I completed our trek. This experience made me realize that perseverance (堅(jiān)持不懈) was, is, and will always be important to everyone in life.

1.Why was it very hard for them to walk on the rocks? (不超過10個(gè)詞)
