United States, I was sure I could have a nice and easy holiday without any language problem. But how
wrong I was!
At the American airport, I was looking for a public telephone to tell my friend Danny that I had arrived.
An American asked if he could help me. "Yes," I said, "I want to give my friend a ring."
"Well, that"s nice. Are you getting married?" he asked. "No," I replied, "I just want to tell him I have
arrived." "Oh," he said, "there is a phone downstairs on the first floor." "But we"re on the first floor now,"
I said.
"Well, I don"t know what you are talking about Maybe you aren"t feeling too well after your journey,"
he said."Just go and wash up, and you will feel a lot better." And he went off, leaving me wondering where
on earth I was: At home we wash up after a meal to get the cups and plates clean. How can I wash up at an
airport?
At last we did meet. Danny explained the misunderstanding: Americans say "to give someone a call", but
we English say "to give somebody a ring". When we say "to wash your hands", they say "to wash up". And
Englishmen start numbering from the ground floor so the first floor is the second for Americans.

of a British cook. One day Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen. He picked up a dish from a
table, and suddenly a snake appeared and bit him on the hand. A few days earlier, the snake came to the
restaurant from Asia in a box of bananas. It climbed out of the box and hid under the dish. "I tried to pick it
up and it bit me. I threw it away, but it landed in the fridge. So I closed the door." Jackson said. Anyway,
Jackson was cool and he took a photo of the snake with his mobile phone. Soon his hand began to ache and
he went to hospital. Then his chest began to hurt. Doctors couldn"t say what was wrong because they didn"t
know what kind of snake it was.
Then Jackson remembered his mobile phone photo. The doctors sent it to London Zoo. When they knew
the kind of snake, they could give Jackson the right medicine, and he left hospital the next day. "So my advice
is this: If a snake bits you, pick up your phone. Take its photo first and then call the hospital. Show the photo
to the doctors," suggests Mr. Jackson. "Oh, and if the snake doesn"t smile for its photo, don"t worry!"

Number one is a sign with the number thirty on it. When drivers see this sign, they must not go at more
than thirty kilometres can hour. We see this sign when we are getting near a town. Number two is a sign
that we"re near a crossing. We must drive carefully. Number three is a sign that there is a bend in the road.
Again, we must drive slowly and carefully. It is not safe to go round a bend very fast. Number four is a sign
that there is another road coming in from the right. There is a junction at this place. Number five is a sign that
there is a hill and number six is a sign that the road gets narrow. Drivers must go slowly and carefully. Number
seven has the word "SCHOOL" on it. This is a sign that there is a school at the side of the street or the road.
Perhaps there are children going to or leaving school. So drivers must look carefully and go slowly. Number
eight is a sign with the letter" P" on it. The letter "P" means "Parking". At some places, there"re the signs "No
parking" or "No waiting". If a driver leaves his car near one of these signs, a policeman may come and write
