Dear Jose,
You have asked me for suggestions on how to get along in the United States. It is difficult to give advice, but I have found the following "dos" and "Don'ts" helpful.
As a 1, it isn't easy to find anyone to 2 in a big city. However, here are some suggestions. 3 get or borrow 4! Walk him several times a day! Americans love dogs and usually stop 5 to anyone with a dog. 6, try to eat in a cafeteria (食堂). People generally 7 the same tables and will sometimes talk to you 8 they see that you are a 9. Next, take your dirty 10 to a laundry (洗衣店)! It takes about an hour to wash and dry, and many people 11 there. They often pass the 12 talking to the other customers. 13 ask for information from a woman, if you are a 14; and from a man, if you are a woman! It seems to get 15 results for a reason I can't understand. Learn the 16 "Please", "Thank you", and "You're welcome" before you come and use them all the time! They usually work like magic (魔术).
There are some things you 17. Don't tell the truth when people 18 "How are you?" They only 19 the answer to be "Fine". Never ask people their 20 ——especially women! Everyone wants to be young. Don't tell heavy people they are 21. Tell them they are losing 22. Everyone here wants to be 23. Don't be late for appointment (约会)! When someone says six o'clock, 24 be there by six. Americans respect 25 and expect everyone to be "on time".
Above all, don't worry! Just follow my advice and bring a lot of money and you will get along, I hope I have been of some help to you.Cordially yours,Socrates

Martha had been working for Miller Laboratories for two years,but she was not happy there.Nothing important had happened in the way of promotions(升职)or salary increases.Martha felt that her supervisor(上司),a younger and less experienced person than,she,did not like her.In fact,the supervisor often said unpleasant things to her.
One day,while talking with her friend Maria,she mentioned how discouraged she was.Maria gave her the name of a cousin of hers who was director of Human Resources Department for a large chemical company.Martha called him the next day and set up an interview during her lunch break.
During the interview,Mr. Petri said,“You’re just the kind of person we need here.You’ve being wasted in your other job.Give me a call in a day or two.I’m sure we can find a place for you in our organization.”Martha was so happy she almost danced out of the building.
That afternoon,Ruth Kenny,her supervisor,saw that Martha had come in ten minutes late from her lunch break and she said,“Oh,so you finally decided to come back to work today?”
This was the last straw.She could not stand it any longer.Besides,Mr.Petri was right:she was being wasted this job.
“Look,”she said angrily,“if you don’t like the way I work,I don’t need to stay here.I’ll go where I’m appreciated! Goodbye!” She took up her things and stormed out of the office.
That night she called Maria and told her what had happened and then asked Maria,“What do you,think?”
“Well,”said Maria carefully,“are you sure about the other job?”
“Well,not exactly,but...”
Maria continued,“Will you be able to get a recommendation(推荐信)from Ms.Kenny if you need one?”
