A POP MUSIC WEEK B ENGLISH SUMMER CAMP C NEW YORK MUSEUM D THE CITY FLOWER SHOW B Foreign visitors are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there dont have names. In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “ Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market The post office is across from the bus stop.” In the Midwest of America, usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. In Kansas, for example, people will say, “ Go north two miles. Turn east and then go another mile.” People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure distance by telling time. “ How far away is the post office? ” you ask. “ Oh.” they answer, “ it s about five minutes from here. ” You say, “ Yes, but how many miles away is it? ” They don t know. People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because few visitors understand the Greek language Instead of giving you the direction, a Greek will often say, “ Follow me.” Then he ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office. Sometimes a person doesn t know the answer to your question A New Yorker might say. “ Sorry. I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “ I dont know.” People in Yucatan think “ I don t know” is not polite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan! One thing will help you everywhere You might not understand a person s words, but maybe you can understand his body language He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction Go on in that direction and you may find the post office ! 53 What do you think of the underlined word “ landmarks” mean in Paragraph l?

If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others We can not change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them. Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other.

Tolerance teaches us to keep an even temper and open mind. You need to remember an old saying, “ Treat others how you want to be treated” . If you tolerate something. it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change. It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone s lives easier. Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests.
