I never had friends at school because of my colorful clothes I always wore .My parents always said，“If you want to have friends，you have to be a friend.” I did that，but it didn't work .I was still ignored .I didn't want it to be the same way this year.

It was the first day of school when I knew it .I got dressed，packed my lunch，and walked to the bus stop. I sat in the cold air，with my nose feeling more like a snowflake(雪花)．Then，the bus slowly pulled up. The door opened，and I saw many eyes staring at me .I walked to the back of the bus. As I passed the other kids，they would whisper and laugh. The bus trip seemed to take forever before we reached the school .When we arrived，I walked to my classroom and sat at the desk in the very back of the classroom. It wasn't that I disliked school，but I wasn't a big fan of the kids at school. I enjoyed listening to the teacher talk，but I didn't like it when the bell rang for lunch. I hid in the crowd of kids，and walked to an empty table. I opened my lunch bag，and began to eat uncomfortably. A girl with long red hair came over to my table and sat down. I got scared，but she had a friendly smile on her face.

“What's your name？” she asked.

“Rachel，” I whispered.

“I am Monica，” she said. She kept talking to me，and I talked to her a little bit.

“No one likes me，” I said after a while of dead silence.

“I do，” she replied.“I learned after a while of being lonely that you have to be f riends with people that look lonely too. Then，no one will ever be lonely in this world，” she said.

Ever since those words have been said to me，I have lots of true friends. I will never forget the day my friend gave me advice that would last a lifetime.

American schools do not have separate classes for boys and girls .If boys want to cook or to sew , they can learn these things in classes that are no longer just for girls. If girls want to repair cars, they can now learn this in school. Most students like to have boys and girls on the same baseball team.

Many boys and girls dress alike in school. They were blue jeans and sport shirts. Some have long hair and some have short hair. Sometimes a boy has longer hair than a girl.

Even the language is different. Students learn to say fire fighter instead of fireman, police officer instead of policeman ,and letter carrier instead of mailman. A person does not need to be a man to fight a fire or to deliver the mail.

Most people think that these changes are good. They give all people an equal chance to be happy and to do what they want to do with their l ives. Fathers like to tell their sons that they can grow up to be president. Today, mothers can tell the same things to their daughters. 24.

“Tipping”(给小费)is always a difficult business. You do not want to give too much or too little，or tip the wrong person.

In Britain and America，people usually tip waiters in restaurants，porters，taxi drivers and hairdressers. They do not tip people in offices，cinemas，garages or airports.

Do you invite your friend to the restaurant？Then you pay the bill. Does your friend invite you？Your friend pays. If there are men and women in the party，the men usually pay.
