14、nces or rekindled (重燃 ) old ones? My friends Joe and Rena just had their big day a few weeks ago after they met each other at a Ceroc workshop some three years before. The word “Ceroc” comes from the French language. Without the complicated footwork, it is easier to pick up by beginners. Another goo
15、d thing about Ceroc is that while it is a partner dance, you dont have to bring a dancing partner.

16、u will become fitter. For office workers like me, dancing is good cardio exercise after a long day sitting in front of the computer screen.

21、ak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. 4 Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says t
22、hat his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame (受责备 ), and few of us know
23、 that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories

Strong Arms and Good Memories D. Learn from the People D When I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided
27、 to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所 ). I suggested that they should stay at “bed and breakfast” houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened
28、to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories. “We didnt stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were away on holiday.” I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought VACANCIE
29、S meant holidays, because the Spanish word for holidays is vacaciones. So they did not go to houses where the sign (标牌 ) outside said VACANCIES, which in English means there are free 5 rooms. Then my friends went to houses where the sign said NO VACANCIES, because they thought this meant the people
30、who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels! We laughed about this and about the mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word DIVERSION means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repai
31、ring the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word DIVERSION on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hole.

32、some more coffee, I said Thank you in French. I meant that I would like some more. However, to my surprise, the coffee pot was taken away!
