Have you ever studied abroad? Maybe it is an amazing experience, especially when you come to Australia as an foreign high school student. You can have a lot of fun there, especially on holidays.
There are many festivals in Australia. The most important one is Christmas. Each year, the summer holidays at every high school last about two months from the beginning of December to February, which covers the Christmas time. Since it is a long holiday, most foreign students in Australia students still stay in Australia during the holiday to get part-time jobs. It is quite easy to find a part-time job at Christmas. Students often take part in another major social activity. They go to the beach to have fun in the sunshine. The summer in Australia is from December to February, so going to the beach in December is very popular among Australians.
Easter in March is another important holiday in the year. It actually combines “Good Friday” and “Easter Monday”. Almost every shop closes on Good Friday. And people usually go to see Easter Show.
The Chinese New Year is not a public holiday in Australia, so every Chinese student still has to go to school to study and do his or her normal duties.

In 1902, Theodore Roosevelt, President of the USA, went on hunting. The hunting dogs found and old bear in the forest near Washington D.C. and the guide asked the president to shoot(射杀) it. But President Roosevelt disagreed. A cartoonist(漫画家) drew a cartoon showing that the president refused(拒绝) to shoot the bear. Soon, the bear began to appear in other newspapers. People named the bear Teddy which was Theodore’s nickname(昵称).
In 1913, a captain named Harry Colebourn paid 20 dollars for a black bear which was born in the Canadian countryside. The captain’s hometown, Winnipeg, was the origin(起源) of the bear’s name. In Winnipeg, Winnie served as the mascot(吉祥物). When World War I began, the captain went to France. Winnie was sent to London Zoo which many kids often visited. Because of its lovely look, the bear became popular with children.

Eric and Chen first met in their Maths class at an American college. Chen was an International student from China. He wanted to learn about American culture and hoped he and Eric would become good friends. At first, Eric seemed friendly. He always greeted Chen warmly before class. Sometimes he offered to study with Chen. He even invited Chen to eat lunch with him. But after the term was over and they were in different classes, Eric seemed more distant. They didn’t see each other very much at college. One day Chen called Eric, but Eric didn’t seem very interested in talking to him. Chen was hurt by Eric’s change of attitude(态度).“Eric said we were friends.” Chen said. “I thought friends were friends forever”. As a foreigner, he doesn’t understand the way Americans view friendship.
Americans use the word “friend” in a very general way. Their friendship is based on common interests. When the shared activity ends, the friendship may die. Now as Eric and Chen are no longer classmates, their “friendship” has changed.
In some cultures friendship means a strong life-long tie between two people—friendship develops slowly, since it is built to last. But American society changes quickly. One fifth of American families move every year. American friendship develops quickly, and it may change just as quickly.
Learning how Americans view friendship can help non-Americans remove misunderstandings(误解). It can help them make friends in the American way.

The Silk Road is the name of different roads that long ago linked Europe, Africa and Asia.
People reached these different places along these roads. Scientists and archaeologists(考古学家) believe people began to travel the Silk Road about 3,000 years ago. By the time the Chinese silk trade became important in the world, the Silk Road had covered almost 6,500 kilometers. It stretched from Rome to China, which is from the West to the Far East.
Businessmen travelling along the Silk Road carried silk, of course. They also carried and traded spices, cloth, rare jewels, slaves and gold.
During its busiest period, the Silk Road allowed people from many different cultures and countries to meet each other and mix. The Silk Road allowed the sharing of precious goods and new ideas. These included people and trading goods from the Mediterranean, Persian, Magyar, Armenian, Bactrian, Indian and Chinese areas. All these peoples travelled the Silk Road, and they shared goods, stories, languages and cultures.
In modern times, the old Silk Road routes(路线) are still used, but now they are crossed by trains instead of camels and horses. There is even a Silk Route Museum in Jiuquan in China. It has over 35,000 objects from all along the Silk Road. In this way, China protects(保护) the history of many countries and peoples. Seeing is believing. If you have a chance, please go to have a walk and have a look.

About the importance of good health, nobody can explain better than your doctor. They are the people who really know the importance of keeping fit and healthy. I am saying this because my doctor is an angel. Every time I put on an extra pound, he will remind me of what it is happening to my body. If we do not need to visit any doctor, we think we are very healthy. But that is not true. We may look healthy but we don't know clearly what is happening inside. However, there are many different ways we can make sure that we look inside as good as we do outside.
The first and easiest step is keeping a good idea, a balanced diet.
Next is sleeping well. Sleep early. Make sure you get nine hours of sleep.
Do not skip your breakfast. It is one of the most important meals of the day. Eat your regular meals, and it will do you good to eat healthily even during breaks.
Exercise your body every day. Go for a swim, or walk, or just play a game of football or tennis.
Try your best not to get stressed because it’s bad for your health.
Remember to keep washing your hands, and then you won’t catch any infection.
Get away from your bad habit. Don't smoke. Some wine does your body good while most of it does harm. Be wise and don't drink too much.
1. to Keep Fit and Stay Healthy | |
Food | Keep a 2. and balanced diet. Eat regular meals. 3. is one of the most important meals of the day, so you must eat it every day. |
