Bad Manners in Public

 

    Although we consider ourselves as highly advanced beings living in a civilized society,bad manners can still be found here and there.For example. some cyclists run the red traffic lights,Many passengers litter waste papers and plastic bags in public places,and some tourists scrabble in tourist attractions,let alone spit on the street.In the cinema,some audience talk loudly on cell phones in front of others.
   I'm strongly against talking loudly in the cinema,for this behaviour shows no respect at all to others ; what's worse,it upsets the audience who are in the mood of having fun.

junketing 

 

    Last summer, my family and I went to Hawaii for a holiday! We flew across the Pacific to the tiny island from Beijing.

   After we booked into a hotel, we rested.

Our fun started the next day and lasted for two long weeks. During our time there, we ate delicious exotic food and drank numerous fruit juices.

   The Hawaiians are very proud of their unique food, often 'spiced up' with slices of juicy pineapple and strings of delicious cheese.

   There were also fantastic beaches right accoss the tiny atoll. The water was sparkling blue and the sand dunes radiated with an inviting warmth of gold. The place was wonderful and the locals were really nice;

   I really enjoyed my holiday.
