18． If you go to a different country, you may get to know a different way of life. Here are stories of three young people when they first went to the US.
John:I still remember when I first went to the US three years ago, everything was new to me. When I met my host (主人) mum at the airport, she asked, "Do you want to go to the bathroom?" I was not sure what she was asking. I thought bathroom meant shower room, so I answered, "No, I forgot to take the soap (肥皂)!" Later I knew "bathroom" meant "toilet".
Eric: Before I went to the US, I thought that everything in the US was large:tall people, big meals and large clothes. When I first got to my school, I was surprised by the size of the school:there was only one building with three floors. And there were fewer than 500 students in the school. Then I went into the dormitory (学生宿舍) and met my little 13-year-old roommate Jason. The room was also very small. However, in the small dormitory, in the small school, I made good friends with my roommate and my classmates.
Linda: Every country has different cultures. I, a girl from Thailand, didn't know much about American culture. All I knew was from books and movies. so when I first went to the US, I was surprised by something. For example, when I first met my host family, they hugged me. People in my country only hug when they know each other very well.

19． Last week a woman and a man came into Jane's travel agency (旅行社) to book a holiday for August. When Jane asked where they wanted to go, the woman said she would like to go somewhere warm.
Jane suggested that they should go to spain because it is very warm in August. She showed them a picture of a wonderful hotel. The man didn't want to go to spain. He said the food there made him uncomfortable. So Jane suggested Tunisia, and said it is always warm in North Africa. But the woman didn't like it. The next suggestion was Italy. But the woman said she didn't like the weather in Italy.
When Jane then suggested Greece, the man got a little upset and said no. He added (补充) that all hotels in Greece were terrible. His neighbor (邻居) went there and her hotel was only half-built.
Jane found out that flying to Florida was not a good idea because the woman didn't like being on planes for a long time. After two hours of talking, Jane suggested that they should just stay at home. They thought it was a great idea and left the travel agency.

20． Are you the only child in your family? Have you heard of "the two-child policy(政策)"? Everyone knows the one-child policy. It is a pulation control (控制) method in our country. Chinese government wanted to control the increasing population at that time. Many Chinese couples understood that and followed this policy or nearly 40 years.
However, as time goes by, some problems appear in our society. At present, these problems are mainly about:
•The number of workers changed from about 960 million in 2010 to 940 million in 2012. The number changed to 930 million in 2014 and will possibly fall by 29 million by 2020.
•China is now getting into an aging (老龄化) society. There will be more old people in the following years. But the society will be short of doctors and nurses to take care of them.
•The population of China will become smaller and smaller if one-child policy continues (继续). It's the main reason that leads to the two problems above.
That's why Chinese government began the two-child policy on January 1st, 2016. It allows each family to have two children. The government hopes it can help solve those social problems gradually (逐渐地). This policy will help offer enough workers in the future. It is reported that there will be around 2. 5 million newly-born babies each year.
