21、 American people like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many countries do so, too. It is a very good habit. You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you the salt on the table, when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters.
“ Excuse me ” is another short sentence they use. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. It’s not polite(礼貌) to break others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking.

“Boys and girls, today we will take a special kind of trip! We will not leave the school, but we will be able to see a faraway place by taking a tour on the Internet. We call this an online trip because it is on the computer. Today, we will visit Alnwick Castle.” Mr Johnson teaches us geography.

Some modern things were added in the castle gradually. It was even one of the first homes in England to have electricity (电). Now it is a comfortable and large place to live. After Windsor Castle, it is the second largest castle in England that people lived in. The Percy family live in the castle but now they only use a part of it.
