He worried more and more that he was misunderstanding simple English greetings and table talk customs.When someone greeted him with,“Hi.how’s it going?” he thought they had asked him “ Where are you going?” and answered with the name of the conference hall,only to get a surprised stare in reply.At a Western style dinner,a colleague(同事)asked,“So how’re you enjoying the States?” he thought he heard.“How’re you enjoying your steak?” and answered that he was eating chicken,not beef.That time,his colleague smiled,and patiently repeated the question, then both laughed at the mistake.
By the end of the meeting,Dr.Dong felt a deep sense of “cultural shock” and was worn out(疲惫的)from having to deal with so many new expressions and ways of dealing with things.He felt his handshake was not as firm as Americans’ found that people reacted unusually when he modestly insisted his English was not good after they

The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666.
In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city,where most of the houses were wooden and close together.One hundred thousand people became homeless. but only a few lost their lives.
The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King’s baker(面包师)in Pudding lane.The baker,with his wife and family,was able to get out through a window in the roof.A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door.Then it spread quickly into Thames Street.That was the beginning.By eight o’clock three hundred houses were on fire.On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames.Tuesday was the worst day.The fire destroyed many well—known buildings,old St Paul’s and the Guildhall among them.
