A group of students from the US have been in China for a week. Here is part of their chat history (聊天记录) on WeChat.
20:45
Hi, everybody! Anything to share today?
20:49
Yes. I went to a restaurant to have dinner with some friends this evening.
When we finished the meal, the waiter brought us the bill. It was 270 yuan.
We gave him 300 yuan and left 30 as a tip(小费) for his service(职务).
To our surprise, he returned us the change!
Really? How kind he is!
20:53
@Sunny It’s different form that of the US. I worked in a restaurant in my free time. I accepted tips. Well, something interesting happened to me this morning…
20:55
I couldn’t find the bus stop. I came up to a man who was walking near me and showed him the bus number. He nodded and asked me to follow. We walked for about 10 minutes and finally got to the bus stop. I wanted to give him a hug (拥抱) to show thanks, but he just said goodbye and walked away. I couldn’t believe that he had taken so much trouble for a stranger(陌生人)!
It seems that Chinese people don’t usually hug.
I guess so. It’s really unforgettable!
21:02
I agree. The Chinese people I have met these days are all so friendly, polite
And helpful. Well will enjoy the rest of our trip for sure.

Managing(管理) money is an important skill for adults. But a group of middle school students in the US have had some early lessons.On Sept 23, eighth-graders from Honey Creek Middle School in Michigan, US, had an eye opening experience called Let’s Get Real. The event aimed to help students use money properly.
“I didn’t know it costs so much money just in a month,” said Douglas Dillon, one of the students. Like other students, Dillon acted as a 28-year-old adult with a job and family. He chose to be an engineer. He could earn $5,000 (30,600 yuan) per month. But after he spent his income on essentials (必需品), including housing, taxes (税), transportation, childcare and entertainment (娱乐活动), he only had $347 left. “I really should spend it carefully and not waste it,” said Dillon.
Meanwhile,Braxton Scamihorn,another student from Honey Creek learned a greater appreciation (感激) for his parents and what it takes to pay the bills. The 14-year-old found that “kids cost a lot of money” when he learned that childcare for three children would cost $900 a month.
“It is just a necessary lesson on problems that the teens are going to face when they are about 28 years old,” said Peggy Murdoch, one of the organizers. They hoped the students learned about real life budget (预算) decisions and had more respect for their parents.

For more than one month, people in China have been worried about the fate（命运）of the 239 people, including 154 Chinese passengers, on board Air Malaysia Flight MH370. However, today no matter how sad we are and how many details（详细资料）that are not clear, it is certain that flight MH370 broke down in the Indian Ocean and no one on (44)it is alive. All the people in the world can do is to continue to look for the wreckage(残骸), talk with the Malaysian government for more information and accept the terrible fact.
People in China have been very disappointed with Malaysia Airlines these days. They do their best to show the Malaysian government that we will never give up knowing the truth. On the other hand, the number of Chinese people who choose to take a trip in Malaysia has been smaller and smaller. Many Chinese people including some famous movie stars say that they will never go to Malaysia any more.
At present, there’s a totally new expression coming out after this event. That is, “Don’t be so Malaysia.”45 People use it to describe someone who is unbelievable and likes telling lies to hide the truth.
