| Once I mentioned the story of a friend getting something made for me to give my daughter a present, and then not letting me pay back. Writing about that made me think about problem of communicating feelings, particularly in cross-cultural situations. Let me explain. If I say to a fellow English-speaker, “I know how you feel,” what I am actually saying is that I can imagine myself in the same position, and therefore can imagine how I would feel. But my friend could perfectly correctly reply, “No you don’t! you can’t.” In truth we can communicate how strongly we feel, but we can not communicate exactly what we feel. But if we come from the same linguistic and cultural background, the match can be close enough. Culture and language can’t be separated, and I think that we have the feelings that are recognized in our culture and therefore represented in our language. One might say that we feel the things that our language allows us to express. So when it comes to trying to explain feelings to someone of a different mother tongue, the difficulties are huge. I could not explain to my friend how I felt about her not letting me repay her, because Chinese culture, it seems, does not recognize the same feelings on such occasions. She could understand the words that I was using, but ____________________________. Some time ago, I was going up in the lift, and a colleague with whom I merely have a nodding acquaintance was offering round some sweetmeat. I knew that I really could not eat it , so I refused politely, only to be told that I was making her lose face. I have no idea how serious the colleague was being. I sincerely hope that her comment was more of the nature of a standard response in that kind of situation. Causing someone to lose face is a serious social mistake. We have to do all we can to learn the types of situations in which it happens, and to try to avoid them. But we can only know about losing face, we can’t feel losing face, as the term is merely a literal translation of Chinese, not one that is native to English. 1. What is the best title of the passage?

The diamond is the hardest natural substance in the world．What causes this superhardness?Pressure and heat are the answers．The pressure has to be close to two million pounds．That’s per square inch．Much heat is required too．Experts say over 5,000 degrees．To make a diamond, one more thing is needed．This is ________．Pressure, heat, and carbon combine．They create a sparkling diamond．The very best are colorless．Pale blue stones─very rare─are high quality too．
Where do most diamonds come from?Over 97 percent come from Africa．The first diamond in Africa was not found by miners．Children found it, in 1866．They were playing in a shallow stream．One picked up “a pretty pebble”．The “pebble” was placed on the mantel of the fireplace．It was soon forgotten．Much later, a guest noticed the sparkle．He urged the farmer to have the stone looked at．He did．He took it to an expert in town．The “pebble” proved to be a diamond worth ＄2,500．That was a small fortune in those days．To date, the mines in Africa have produced over 1 billion dollars worth of diamonds．
Not all diamonds are found in Africa．Our hemisphere produced diamonds too．Brazil was a big producer in earlier times．The famous gem the Star of the South was found in brazil in 1853．
The gem the President Vargas was found more recently in Brazil．This was in 1938．A poor prospector found the stone．It was in the San Antonio River．It weighed 726.6 carats．The man sold the stone for ＄10,000 to a local broker．The broker almost immediately resold it．He got about ＄425,000．What a nice guy!

Normal bicycle safety guides usually tell you to wear you helmet(頭盔) and to obey the law in order to avoid being hit on a bike. Is this advice really helpful?
Consider this for a moment: Wearing a helmet will absolutely do nothing to prevent you from getting hit by a car. Surely, a helmet might help you if you get hit, but you No.1 goal should be to avoid getting hit. Plenty of cyclists were killed by cars__________. However, if they had ridden without helmets, yet followed the guidelines listed below, they might still be alive today. So they saying that wearing a helmet is the first and last word in bike safety is, to some degree(在一定程度上), wrong.
The most common bike safety advice is “follow the law”. Ridiculously, most people are already aware that it’s stupid to race through a red light at a crossroads. As a result, it’s clear that the “follow the law” advice isn’t that helpful, either. In addition, following the law is not enough to keep you safe. Here’s an example: The law tells you to ride on the right, but if you ride too far to the right, someone started a parked car could open their door right in front of you and motorists pulling out of driveways and parking lots will be less visible. In that case you were following the law, but could still have been hit.
Then what should we remember in order to keep safe when riding a bike? I will tell you about it in the following paragraph.
