Today I took part in a quiz show at a TV studio. When I arrived at 75. (eighth) o'clock, a woman put make-up on my face, and brushed my hair.
Then the director came. He told me to stay 76. (relax) and not to worry. It was really kind of him to do that. The hot lights shone down upon 77. (we). One of the contestants passed out before the show started, so the director 78. (choose) another girl. The girl was called Angela. She knew a lot of 79. (thing). She beat me and another contestant and finally won the prize. Everyone was happy for Angela.
I was sorry I didn't win, but I'll do 80. (well) next time.

These houses are both "green" and "smart". There is glass outside the houses. Heat is held under the glass and is then used as energy for ③each house. In the bathroom, your medicine cupboard is connected to your doctor's computer. In the kitchen, your smart fridge tells the supermarket's computer when you ④need more food.

B
One day as I was sitting in a coffee shop, I noticed a girl working on her laptop. Two people ①passed by and accidentally knocked over her drink. To avoid the embarrassment(困窘), the girl pretended(假裝) that ② had happened and continued working on her computer.
This reminded me that both in China and Britain, when something strange happens around you or when you are in an embarrassing situation, ③people tend(傾向于) to use this common way to not catch other people's attention.
A lot of the time, Britons use self-depreciating humor (自嘲式的幽默). This is a well-known British characteristic. For example, imagine walking ④ your friends and you fall over. Your friend may just say ⑤"旅途愉快!" Or you may just laugh about how clumsy(笨拙的) you are. For many Britons, making fun of yourself is a way of showing your strength of character.
Also, British are considerate when it comes to embarrassing others. For example, students ⑥usually have a birthday party every year. So during the school day, a student will give out invitations to the class. If one person doesn't get an invitation, but the rest of the class does, he or she will feel embarrassed. To avoid it, it's common for students to even invite people who aren't ⑦their friends.
