People in different countries have different ways of doing things. Something that is polite in one country may be quite impolite in another. In Britain, you mustn’t raise your bowl to your mouth when you are having some liquid（液体） food. But it’s different in China. In Japan you even needn’t worry about making much noise when you have it. It shows that you are enjoying it. But it is considered as bad manners in Britain. If you are a visitor in Mongolia, what manners do they wish you to have? They wish you to give a loud “burp”（打嗝） after you finish eating, burping shows that you like the food.
In Britain, you should try not to put your hands on the table when you’re having a meal. In Mexico, however, guests are expected to keep their hands on the table during a meal. But in Arab countries you must be very careful with your hands. You mustn’t eat with your left hand. Arabs consider it very bad manners eating with left hands. So, what should you do if you are on a visit to another country? Well, rememeber when in Rome do as the Romans do. You can ask the local people to help you or just watch carefully and follow them.

From 8:30pm to 9:30pm on Saturday March 26th 2011, a great number of people around the world turned off the
lights for Earth Hour. It is a bit like an environmental New Year, providing a chance to help care for our earth and make people around the world learn how important it is to do that.
What can we do during this hour? We can do lots of fun things in the dark, such as planning a candlelight（烛光） dinner for our family or a group of friends, telling stories and singing songs with the kids and neighbors. What did you do for Earth Hour this year? Let’s share the Earth Hour stories.

I was on one of the mountains near the city and took photos of my city. It was great to watch the stars and the moon after a busy day . I enjoyed this relaxing moment.

I work as a waiter in a restaurant. Our restaurant was still open for Earth Hour as we got lots of reservations(预订) that night. And we spent the hour working by candlelight. And guess what? Our customers loved that and promised to come for next Earth Hour.
Brandon
I turned off the power to my house and went for a walk for Earth Hour. It was a little strange to walk in the dark, but it was only for one hour. Just think of what it was like before the invention of the light bulb!
Mary
