12、nditions, everyone I met had a smile on his or her face. They were so generous and almost always insisted we stay for coffee.On our way to one home we passed a pond which was covered with green slime （粘液 ）.

13、rayed, “ Please dont let them offer coffee.”After we were invited in, a little girl ran inside. She held a mango in each hand. The one in her left hand was half eaten.

20、fferent. Canadians use meters and kilometers and measure temperatures in Celsius;Americans use feet and miles and measure temperatures in Fahrenheit.

31、 if we happen to have no talent for doing so.Ruskin said, “Drawing can teach us to see: to notice properly rather than gaze absentmindedly （ 茫然地 ）.
