还原短文(五) 快乐成长篇
A
Are you the kind of person who likes to move with music? It's a natural thing to do that. 1.
Scientists say that animals dance, too. 2. The “dances” of animals send messages to other animals. But when people dance, they express feelings about life and love, or about these very human experiences.
Dances are good for you in many ways. For one thing, dancing is good for you physically. 3. If you go dancing often, you can keep physically fit. You may feel very tired after dancing, but you'll probably also feel relaxed and happy. This is another important point about dancing. 4. If you are angry or upset about something, dancing helps those feelings go away.
5. Some dances are for couples and some are for groups. But all kinds of dances give you a chance to meet new people or to do something enjoyable with friends.

B
This year 2,300 teenagers from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes. They will attend US schools, meet US teenagers, and form impressions of America. 6. They will learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
7. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George's family. In turn, George's son, Mike spent a year in Fred's home in America.
Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months' study, the language began to come to him. 8. Students rose respectfully(恭敬地) when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
9. The father's word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than one of the members. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.
“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”
Meanwhile, in America, Mike, a German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize(批评) American schools,” he said. “It is far too easy by our level. 10. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There should be some middle ground between the two.”
