It is easy to make you embarrassed （窘迫的） . You may run into the wrong classroom and everyone looks at you. Or you have a piece of cabbage in your teeth! What do the American and British teens find embarrassing and how do they react to it? One big embarrassing thing for you is asking personal questions. for example, If you ask “how old are you? ”or “How much money do you make?”, they’ll get angry. It’s polite to stop asking. If you meet someone for the first time, talk about something not personal, such as your neighborhood or school. British people love to talk about weather.

Find out the topic sentence of each paragraph.

American and British teens feel embarrassed if they still use their parents’ money to buy clothes or have to ask their parents before making a decision, because others will laugh at them. So, Another embarrassing thing for you is their knowing you are using your parents’ money. In some situations, if you look bad in public, don’t worry. A child may forget and call his or her teacher “mom” in class. A good laugh is a good way out of it! Sometimes you find that you don’t have enough money when you pay at the supermarket. Just put some things back quickly. If you explain too much, you’ll attract a lot of attention! Honesty always works best. If you forget the name of a person, or don’t know how to clean the toilet after using it at your friend’s home, just ask them about it.

Mr.and Mrs.Bell are very oblivious. For example, Mr.Bell sometimes goes to his office for work on Sunday morning, for he thinks it is Monday. And Mrs.Bell some- times forget to cook supper for the family.

One summer they planned to fly to New York for their holidays. They got to the airport only ten minutes before the plane took off. So time was short. But suddenly Mrs. Bell said she must tell Alice,their daughter, not to forget to lock the front door when she went to school. As Alice was then at school,they couldn’t tell her about it by telephone. So they hurried to the post office. Mrs.Bell wrote a short note to Alice while Mr.Bell bought a stamp and an envelo- pe. Soon the note was ready. They put the stamp on the envelope in a hurry and dropped it in the letter box. But suddenly Mrs.Bell began to cry. The short note was still in her hand. She had put the plane tickets in the envelope.
