　　(1) A lot of boys and girls in western countries are wearing the same clothes, and many boys have long hair, so it is difficult to tell whether they are boys or not.

　　One day an old man went for a walk in a park in Washington and when he was tired, he sat down on a chair by a swimming pool. A young person was standing on the other side of the pool.

　　“Oh!” the old man said to the person sitting next to him, “Do you see the person with the loose clothes and long hair? Is it a boy or a girl?”

　　“A girl,” said the person, “She is my daughter. ”

　　“Oh!” the old man said quickly, “Please forgive me. I don’t know that you are her mother. ”

　　“I’m not,” said the person, “I’m her father. ”

　　Many British people don’t think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. When they want to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theaters, cinemas and concerts you can wear whatever you like. From beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes as long as(只要) you look clean and tidy.

　　But in Britain and the U. S. A. , men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women wear dresses or skirts(not trousers). Doctors and business people always wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women have to wear tidy dresses.

　　In many ways, Americans are less formal than British people, but they are more careful with their clothes. At home or on holidays, most Americans wear uniforms or sports clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. But in good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes.

　　It’s hard to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the U. S. A., because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch first and then do the same. You’ll feel more comfortable if you don’t look too different from everyone else.

　　Compared(与……比) with cars, bicycles have many advantages. First, they are much cheaper than cars. Most Chinese can’t afford cars, but they can afford bicycles.

　　At first, you can use a digital camera to take some photos. Also, you can download beautiful pictures from the Internet. Of course, you can also draw your favorite pictures by yourself. In a word, you can use your imagination.

　　Then, buy some heat-sensitive iron-on transfer paper(感热的可熨的摹写纸) and print(打印) your picture or text using a standard ink jet printer(喷墨打印机). You can print black or colors or even buy other special paper.
