24、 In public places, people often use body language to express their meanings. Waving and bowing are examples of body language. Different kinds of body languages show different cultures in different countries. In China waving means greeting, but in Japan bowing is used. Sometimes this kind of body language is polite in one country, but it is not polite in another. We should pay attention to using it. In China, nodding your head shows you agree with someone, but in India, shaking your head from side to side shows agreement. In China, people hold hands as a sign of friendship, but people seldom hold hands in North America. It is worth(值得) noting that different meanings of body language can also cause problems in understanding. Some people do not understand how to use thumb(拇指) correctly. Most people often show one thumb to praise someone or something. You can't raise your thumb when someone is in danger. In a basketball match, if the judge shows two thumbs, it means two players break the rules.

26、My problems started after I went to a boarding school. I was only 14, and at first I missed my family a lot. I often called them and cried on the phone. But after two weeks, I found I enjoyed being with my classmates at school.
I had many friends who were boys. I thought of them as my best friends — but only friends. I never guessed my friendships with boys would become a problem.
Then, three months later, my friends told me that some teachers and girls said I was hanging out with boys all day long in order to get attention from them. Seven months after that, the head teacher Mr. Wang asked the class to choose some students to join the Students’ Union. I thought I could win for I was doing well in school. I’d already won prizes for the best math and English exams. A week later, the list came out and it didn’t include me. I was sad.
Mr. Wang came to me and said, “Don’t be sad. I know you’re excellent! Maybe you’re a little distant from the girls in our class. They don’t know much about you, so some of them didn’t choose you. It doesn’t matter. Do your best to get along well with everyone and I think you’ll make it next time.”

27、Some English words have more than one meaning. These are called multi-meaning words. Multi-meaning words have the same pronunciation with different meanings. For example, let's look at the word "ball". You could have a "ball" which means you would have a good time. You could toss a "ball" which means you throw an object. You could be on the "ball" which means you know what is happening. You could go to a "ball" which means a dance.
Take the word "can". You "can" ride a bike which means you are able to ride a bike. You have a "can" of soup which means the soup is in a round-shaped holder. You can do the "can-can" which is a dance from the 1920s. And you might get "canned" if you do a poor job at work, which means you might lose your job.
How about "fly"? You can "fly" an airplane or you can hit a "fly" that. is on your food in your house. Or, you can "fly by the seat of your pants" which means you don't make a plan before taking an action. And, you know that the "fly" of a zipper is the top part of the zipper.
There are hundreds of words that are multi-meaning words. The word "set" has more meanings than any other word in the English language. When you have time, why don't you try to think of all the ways the word "set" is used?
If, you look at the title of this book Can a Fly, Fly?you know that the answer is "Yes" because you have seen an insect named a "fly" go up in the air and move around through the ai which is what "fly" means. Can a Fly, Fly? Of course, it can!

29、Crayon Crisis
The telephone rang. It was my sister, who was working in an elementary school. She told me she used my crayon ________ again.
Over 40 years ago, I sat in my first-grade classroom when the teacher asked me to go to the principal’s office. I was shy. And I hated to be ________. For me, being called to the principal’s office was my worst dream.
When I pushed open the door, it was worse than I thought. Seated in front of the principal’s desk were my ________. My father walked straight over to me. Holding my drawings, he asked, “Why do you only use a black crayon when you draw?” I couldn’t speak. “Show me your desk,” said my father.
In my classroom, my father pulled out my crayon box from my desk. A single nub of a crayon rested in his palm—it was black. Puzzled, my father asked, “Where are the rest of your crayons?”
I quietly explained that I’d given all the other crayons to friends. I’d been ________ like my parents had taught me. My father let out a deep breath, “You were sharing?” I nodded my head.
Back to the office, I looked at my father, then at the principal—both their faces were red. The principal whispered that I could go. I waved goodbye to my parents. My mother waved back, but I couldn’t get my father’s ________; he was glaring at the principal.
I learned years later that my father’s face was red because of ________ and the principal’s was red because of embarrassment. The principal, on seeing all my artwork done in black crayon,assumed (猜想) that I had deep emotional problems. He had called my parents in to discuss “my ________” and to suggest some psychological counseling (心理咨询).
I was too afraid to say that I only had one crayon left. I was too shy to ask for my “shared” crayons back. Because I didn’t stand up for myself, others assumed the worst.
Today my sister tells her students, “Don’t be ________to speak up. If you don’t, I just might make the wrong assumption. Let me tell a story about my sister, when she was around your age.”
