           One Sunday morning, I decided to buy a computer to use for school. I went to the biggest store in town,
    which sold all kinds of computers. There were so many computers there that I didn't know how to choose a
    right one.

    but a student like me. I sensed a strange feeling-as if I had met him before. He began patiently showing me each
    model. With his help, I decided to buy one computer with enough functions at a very low price. I enjoyed this
    shopping experience because of his smile. A few months later, something was wrong with my computer. I went
    back to the store to have it fixed. When I arrived there, what I saw first was still his smile. As soon as I told him
    my problem, he comforted me immediately and tried his best to solve the problem for me. I was quite grateful to
    him for his sweet smile and good service.
          When I went back to school, his smile often appeared in my mind. I don't know whether we'll meet each
    other again, but his sweet smile will stay there in my memory and deep in my heart. Smiling is the most peaceful

          Amanda is an American filmmaker and actress. She came to China three years ago to study Performance at
    Beijing Film Academy. Last month, she moved to Japan to study Economics at the University of Tokyo. On June
    10th, She returned to the USA. She chatted with her parents about the cultural differences between the two
    countries.
          "The people in both countries are very friendly to foreigner. But they have different cultures. For example,
    when I spoke Chinese in China, the people there always showed surprise on their faces. But when I came to
    Japan, I found it was opposite. Most local people there hoped I could talk with them in Japanese, though I was
    not good at it," she said.
          Amanda thought this might have something to do with the fact that the western group in Japan is older than
    the one in China. They have stayed in Japan for a long time. And most of them speak Japanese well. But
    Westerners in China are still quite a new group. They're usually treated as guests and tourists.
