From the time we were babies, we have been taught manners (礼貌). We are taught how to hold a knife and fork and not to talk with our mouths full. We are taught how to shake hands and when to start and when to sit and the way to introduce people.

Sometimes, good manners in one place are very bad manners somewhere else. Almost everywhere eating together means that people are very friendly to each other. But in parts of Polynesia (波利尼西亚) it is bad manners to be seen eating beside each other. So they politely turn their back to each other when they are taking food.

Some East Africans spit (吐口水) four times as a kind of blessing (祝福). They do it to show that they want a sick person to get well, or to bless a new-born baby. In most other places, spitting means something completely (完全) different. It usually shows an unhealthy habit. In many countries, it may mean that you hate someone.

When we go to visit someone, we say “Hello!” or “How are you?” or things like that. But if you are visiting an East African village, everyone will be very careful not to pay attention to anyone, the polite thing there will be for you to go quietly, without speaking to anyone and sit beside your friend. You should wait until he has finished what he is doing and then he will begin talking to you.

In a village in Arab, a visitor will walk behind all the tents until he gets to the one he wants to visit. If he passes in front, he will be invited into each tent and asked to eat.

The school in my hometown has changed a lot over the years. When my father was at school, there used to be low and narrow classrooms there, but now there are many big and bright teaching buildings with many labs, computer rooms and libraries.

In the past, there were fewer books. Sometimes students had to cop some books because they were short of money. Now there are all kinds of books with lots of pictures.

Years ago, students at school only had a small playground and they could only play basketball in PE lessons. Now, there are two big playgrounds, two football field and a big tennis court. The students’ after-school life at school is quite colorful and meaningful.
