Before you go to another country,it is a great help if you know some of the customs of the country.
When people meet each other for the first time in Britain, they say, \hands. Usually they do not shake hands when they just meet or say goodbye. But they shake hands after they haven't met for a long time or when they will be away from each other for a long time.
Last year a group of German students went to England for a holiday. Their teacher told them that the English people hardly shake hands. So when they met their English friends at the station, they kept their hands behind their backs. The English students had learned that the Germans shake hands as often as possible, so they put their hands in front and got ready to shake hands with them. It made both of them laugh.

Chinese teenagers can hardly rest during the weekend.
According to a survey, 24% of the Grade 8 students in Beijing have classes at the weekend. Over 40% of the middle school students have less than eight hours’ sleep each night because of study. And this isn't only in Beijing. Ji Chunying is a Grade 9 student in Guangzhou. The 14-year-old girl has to get up at 6:45 am on Saturday. Then she has a whole day of classes. On Sunday, she goes to extra classes for maths and physics.
But Ji doesn't complain. She says her classmates all work very hard. However, some students are much luckier. They don't have to go to school on weekends.
Ding Yi, a Grade 8 student from Jinan, Shandong, is one of them. And she's a top student. During the weekend, Ding usually gets up at 8 am. Then she spends some time doing homework. After that she is free to go shopping or watch TV.
Ding said her mother once wanted her to try extra classes. But when they asked Ding's teacher about it, the teacher said it was unnecessary. “My teacher said I didn't need to push myself too much. Learning well at school is enough,” Ding said. “I feel pretty lucky.”
