Its the most popular topic of a conversation. For example, people may say to each other “Isnt it a nice day?” “Do you think its going to rain?” or “I think it is going to snow.” 16 .

Thinking he had not made himself_or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak it very well.” But the Chinese student still_saying “No”_the foreigner gave up and didnt know what to say.Whats wrong with the students answer? It is because he didnt accept a compliment as the American people_He should have said “Thank you” instead of “No”. He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If someone says to a woman, “ You look_beautiful with the new clothes_” she should be very happy and answer, “Thank you.” In our country we think_modest is a virtue and showing off is a bad behavior. But in the West, if you are modest and say, “ No,_I cant do it well,” then the others will take it for granted (理所当然)that you_can not do it. If you often say,“No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by_When_for a job, if one says something like “Yes, I can certainly do it” instead of “ Let me have a try on the job”, he or she can expect to get it. So in the West, one should always be confident_self-confidence, he cant go anywhere. Confidence is of great_to one in a country where competition is quite keen.(激烈)21 . AsayBtalkCspeakDtell22 .

One site said that talking on a cell phone while driving had the same results of drunk driving accidents! Also I think it is very impolite to use your phone in a public place! Once I was in a doctors office, and people were very quiet. A womans cell phone started ringing. After what seemed a million rings, she started to talk on her little “toy”, annoying every one.- Chelsea from the USThe cell phone would be a great thing if we used it in the right way. Unfortunately most of us dont use it in the right way because we talk with our friends for hours and hours, and thats something we can do better if we have a coffee together. The use of the cell phone in this way is dangerous for the development of good communication. We need to think twice about how we are using cell phones.- Graciela Flores form MexicoOnce when I was studying in the library, I was reading my book. Suddenly, a cell phone rang. I was so annoyed because those students didnt have good manners in public. I looked at them in anger, but they didnt pay attention. Nowadays, many young students use cell phones everywhere in my country just for talking to their friends. It keeps students from studying.-Seung-HyeLee from Korea I think cell phones should be banned（禁止）in cars and airplanes. It is very clear that peoples attention is diverted（分散）if they talk on cell phones while they are driving. The number of car accidents caused by drivers using cell phones has risen, so people should not use them when they are driving. Also, it is dangerous to use them in airplanes because the phone signals can interrupt the airplanes signal system.- Yian Ma from China41 .
