Teahouses in Chengdu
There is a saying, "China has the best teahouses in the world and Chengdu has the best teahouses in China."Chengdu has not only many teahouses but also the special ways of serving and drinking tea.
As soon as the visitors enter the teahouses, the waiters or waitresses will greet them with teapots and cups in their hands. The cups often have special covers and saucers . The covers can keep the water warm.

Every year thousands of people get hurt or die when they are crossing the road. Most of these people are old people and children. Old people often get hurt or die because they can't see or hear very well. Children usually meet with accidents because of their carelessness. They forgot to look and listen before they cross the road.
How can we lessen traffic accidents? All of us must obey the traffic rules. For the drivers, they shouldn't drive too fast. If they drive too fast, it will be very difficult to stop the cars in a very short time. For the pedestrians , it's very important to be careful when they are walking on the road. Therefore, when we walk across the road, we must try to walk along the pavements. We must stop and look both ways before crossing the road. Look left first, next look right, then look left again. Only when we are sure that the road is clear, we can cross it. The right way to cross the road is to walk quickly. It's not safe to run. If people run across the road, they may fall down. Teenagers should try to help children, old people or blind people to cross the road, and never play in the street.

In September 2013, the China National Tourism Administration issued a new set of tourist guideline in order to improve tourists' behavior when they travel abroad. Although the 64-page handbook contains suggestions for Chinese tourists when traveling at home, the main purpose is to improve the poor reputation of Chinese tourists abroad.
In 2013, more than 83 million Chinese people traveled overseas, up 18 percent from the year 2012, according to the China Tourism Academy. But even as they travel farther, the Chinese tourists continue to take bad habits with them. From damaging ancient Egyptian temples to letting children defecate in the middle of airports, Chinese tourists have earned a bad fame. Chinese Vice-Premier Wang Yang even stressed the need for Chinese tourists to behave better while traveling overseas so as to protect China's image abroad.
Now with the latest "guidebook", Chinese travelers should have no excuse for rude behavior. According to the guidelines, when using the restroom, Chinese tourists are asked not to forget to flush the toilet after using it.
The guidelines also remind tourists of not fighting with others when they want to take pictures at tourist attractions. When flying, the guidelines advise travelers not to take life vests away from airplanes.
Chinese tourists are also encouraged to be respectful of local customs wherever they travel. In the United Kingdom, for example, it is not polite to ask people. Where are you going?" or "Have you eaten?", the handbook says.
Nevertheless, with a very short history of traveling overseas, it is not surprising that many Chinese tourists behave badly on their foreign trips. We should give them time to change.

Some students, parents and teachers in Shanghai were surveyed last month. According to the result of the survey, the generation gap between students and parents as well as teachers is becoming wider. Here is what they said.
Voice of the students:
"Our parents hold too high _ which put us under lots of pressure. They care too much about our lives and studies," one student said.
"It's impolite that some students' parents read their children's diaries without permission!" one student said angrily.
"Some of our teachers are so serious that we can't make friends with them at all," another student said sadly.
Voice of the parents:
One mother said, "After school, my daughter usually locks herself into her room and spends lots of time talking with others on the phone. And I can't stand her clothes and hairstyle!"
"I thought my son was doing very well in his studies. I didn't realize I was being cheated by him until I got a call from his teacher," said a father.
Voice of the teachers:
An English teacher said, "Today, the role of the teacher is to put knowledge into students' brains. The power of teachers has kept students away from them."
"Some parents pay too much attention to their children's grades instead of creating a lively and colorful environment at home," another teacher said.
"In the past, teachers and students often played games together or talked with each other. Today, only studies and grades are talked about," said a teacher. "A school should be a place where students can learn not only knowledge, but also how to face failure and frustration bravely enough.</s>What can we know from the students' voice?</s>They hope to be free don't want their parents to be very strict. | The higher expectations their parents hold, the better they will do., Teachers like making friends with students now., A warm and happy family isn't expected. |
