Every country shares things【小题1】common: we value family and laughter, cherish food and health, and celebrate large【小题2】(festival) and traditions. Yet within the similar things we share, there are unique parts of each country. One characteristic that is famous of British people【小题3】(be) their sense of humor, particularly self-mockery (自嘲). This is a type of humor that criticizes and undervalues oneself. For example, a fat person may joke: “I am on a new sea food diet. If I see food, I eat it.” This is【小题4】well-known self-mockery joke. It’s difficult why self-mockery【小题5】(tie) to the British people. But every nation’s sense of humor comes from its culture and history. It could come from another British characteristic, modesty,【小题6】(mean) not talking openly about your skills. This seems to be something that is similar with people in China,【小题7】modesty plays a big part in daily life. It also acts as a defense of our self-respect by playing down our skills, this can【小题8】(less) the chance of people criticizing us. Another possible reason is【小题9】the British people do not take themselves too【小题10】(serious).

The ninth week of SEAL(Sea, Air, Land) training is referred to as Hell Week. It is six days of no sleep, physical and mental suffering and one special day at the Mud Flats (泥沼)where you will sink into the mud.
It is on Wednesday of Hell Week that we came down to the mud flats and spend the next 15 hours trying to survive the freezing-cold mud, the cold wind and the strong pressure from the instructors to give up.
As the sun began to set that Wednesday evening, my training class, having broken some of the rules, was ordered into the mud. We sank into the mud until only our heads could be seen. The instructors told us we could leave the mud if only five men would give up—just five men and we could get out of the cold.
Looking around the mud flat, it was clear that some of us were about to give up. It was still over eight hours till the sun came up--eight more hours of coldness. Our cries were so loud that it was hard to hear anything. And then, one voice began to fly through the night--one voice raised in song.
The song sounded terrible, but it was sung with great power. One voice became two, and two became three, and before long everyone in the class was singing.
We knew that if one man could rise above the suffering then others could as well. The instructors warned us of more time in the mud if we kept up the singing—but the singing went on and on. And somehow, the mud seemed a little warmer, the wind a little weaker and the morning not so far away.
If I have learned anything in my time traveling the world, it is the power of hope. The power can change the world by giving people hope.
So, if you want to change the world, start singing when you're up to your neck in mud.
