The professor noticed the 2 on their faces and told them, "I want you to write about what you see there."
Although still confused, the students started writing. At the 3 of the class, the professor took all the answer sheets (答题纸) and started reading the answers in front of the students. All of them described the black dot and tried to explain its position and 4 like that. After the professor 5 reading, the whole class was silent.

Let me share with you three ways of improving your spoken English. Here I'll simply introduce their advantages and disadvantages. | |
| Listening to English as much as possible Advantage: It's very easy. You can do it while exercising, waiting in line, and so on. Disadvantage: It's too passive. Listening alone isn't enough. You should do other kinds of speaking practice, too. |
| Taking English speaking lessons Advantage: It helps you do speaking practice. And you can make progress in a few weeks. Disadvantage: It's very limited, You can only learn the words, phrases and sentences in the lessons. |
| Telling a story in your own words after listening to it Advantage: The more you practice, the more you'll learn and the larger your vocabulary will be. Disadvantage: It can be a little difficult for beginners. |
A person who is very polite to others is said to have good manners. Generally, such a person is respected by people around him. He shows care to others, and does his best to make them comfortable.
As the saying goes, "The first impression (印象) is the best impression." When we meet a person for the first time, it's that person's manners that will impress us. The manners we learn as children stay with us throughout our lives. Good manners are the ones our parents and teachers teach us, and we can make them part of our personality. It's very important to teach good manners to children when they are young so that they grow up to become polite and pleasant. Childhood is the best time to learn good manners.
Good manners cost us nothing but can help us get many things. They help us win friends and conquer our enemies. They can help make the world a happier place by reducing (减少) arguments and helping people avoid fights. Whether you're in business, service or education and whatever kind of life you lead, good manners are helpful.
Everyone likes a person who speaks and acts politely and treats others respectfully. Such a person is always ready to understand and to help other people. He also forgets the wrong others do to him.
Value good manners, and teach them to your children from an early age.
