13．　　Different countries have different customs. How to communicate with others politely? Here are some ways.
　　How close do you stand when you talk to a friend? You can stand close to people in the Middle East but doesn't stand too close to North Americans! Give them more personal space.

　　Do you look at people when you talk? In some places, it is polite to look at people when you talk, but in other countries it isn't polite to look somewhere else. In Britain and the USA, people usually look at each other when they talk.

14．　　Bi Sheng was born in Song Dynasty. He lived in a small village which lies in Huanggang today. He was the world's first inventor of the printing. It is about 400 years earlier than the printing in Germany.
　　The printing is also called the movable type printing (活字印刷). But how did it work in the past?
　　First of all, the clay was made into movable types. Then words were engraved carefully onto the types. After that the words were chosen and put in right order in a box according to the text. Next, the workers brushed ink onto the movable types. Finally the types could be used for printing. They could be used again and again for different books.
　　The movable type printing plays an important role in Chinese culture. With the help of it Chinese culture spread around the world more quickly. At the same time, the movable type printing was widely used in the world at that time. As a result, more and more culture communication among countries took place.
　　The movable type printing the compass (指南针), gunpowder and the paper ﹣making are called four great inventions of China. They make China own an important and even top position in the history of human civilization(文明).

15．　　Five years is a rather short time in the long history of China. But for digital (数字的) development, a lot of changes have taken place in many aspects of our life.
　　Nowadays, it's normal for people to communicate on WeChat, the most popular mobile social media platform in China. People take less cash (现金) with them because most of the stores and hotels accept WeChat Pay and Alipay.
　　In China, holding a mobile phone means having the world in your hands. You can shop, travel, communicate, have fun by using a mobile phone, and all of these tasks can be completed with a few finger taps. Without mobile phones, life would seem dull.
　　By the end of 2016, there were 695 million mobile phone users in China, an increase of 12 percent on year﹣on﹣year basis. The average mobile Internet data traffic reached 172 megabytes per month, which was far more than the global average.
　　At the two sessions (两会), Premier Li Keqiang pointed out that in 2017 the speed of mobile network would be increased and the cost would be reduced greatly. Mobile rates for domestic roaming(国内漫游)and long distance calls would be cancelled (取消).
　　Meanwhile, the TD-LTE 4 G communication technology developed mainly in China has been accepted and widely used across the world.
　　In 2020, China's 5 G network is in service. It helps China's mobile telecommunication overtake(反超)the international community's.

16．　　English is the first language of about 400 million people and the mother language of 12 countries, However, it has many differences. British, American and South African English are all spoken differently. In many English language courses, the British and American differences are taught. One is not more correct than the other, but there are important differences between the two.
　　Probably the biggest difference between American and British English is the vocabulary. Different words and erpressions are used to talk about the same thing. For example, in the United States, people throw their garbage into the trash can. In England, people throw their rubbish into the dustbin. In Britain, people take a lift to the fifth floor. In America, people take an elevator.
　　American and British grammar can also be different. For example, speakers of British English will ask "What did you do at the weekend?" but Americans usually say "on the weekend. "In the United States people usually say" I've gotten a new bike, "but in the U. K. they will say I've just got a new bike."
　　The pronunciation in American and British English is also different, even when the spelling is the same. The word "tomato" is a classic example of this.
　　Vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation are three ways English is different in different parts of the world. Learning all these is not easy, so English learners should just know that they are always there.
