 根据语篇内容，判断下列句子正误。

Last year, we had an English teacher called Jack Green from the UK. He often told us, "English is very useful in the world." He taught us very well. He was strict with us all. In class he always gave us more time to speak English. At first I could hardly understand a word and I couldn't talk to my classmates in English at all. But soon I found English wasn't so difficult and I could talk to my classmates in English. So I began to like it very much.

Now Mr. Green teaches in another school. This year we have a new teacher called Mrs. Smith. She teaches us very carefully, too. She often asks us to recite (背诵) the texts and play games. With the help of the two foreign teachers, we all make great progress. Now I'm enjoying studying this subject. I'm sure I will learn a lot this year.

Jack is a famous writer now. But he said he was not a good student when he was young. He was often late for class and didn't like doing his homework. Sometimes he slept in class while the teacher was teaching. He didn't understand much, but he always thought he understood everything.

One day the teacher asked the students a question, "When John was ten years old, his brother was twenty. John is fifteen now and how old is his brother?" Jack answered, "That's easy. His brother is twice as old as John, so he is now thirty."

Another time, the teacher in a science class asked, "When it thunders (打雷), why do we always see the light before we hear the sound" "But, Miss White," said Jack quickly, "can't you see our eyes are in front of our ears?"

The third time, the teacher in a biology class asked, "Why can fish swim in the water?" "But, Miss White," said Jack quickly, "don't you know fish can't walk on land?"

Every country has its own way of cooking. American people have their way of cooking, too.

Most people in the US like fast food, but if you think that American people don't like cooking, you're wrong. It's true that most Americans eat fast food for their breakfast and lunch, but they also think cooking is interesting. Parents see the importance of teaching their children how to cook, and most Americans say that home cooked meals are the best.

Americans have their own way of cooking. For example, baking (烧烤) is the most popular way of cooking in America. Most American families have ovens.

American cooks pay attention to the balance of food. In planning a big meal, they try to cook meat, a few vegetables, some bread and often some sweet food. They also like to make the meal look beautiful. There are many kinds of food of different colors, so the meal is healthy and looks beautiful, too.

If you want a successful party, you can plan ahead.

Decide what food you will serve according to the time of the party. If you have the party in the middle of the morning or afternoon, snacks will be fine. Think about how many people are coming, and then prepare two or three kinds of desert for the party, such as cakes.

Prepare as much food for the party as you can before the party. Make use of your fridge if you have one, as you really don't want to do much cooking on the day.

Discuss with your friends about what kind of food they would like. If you're having a theme (主题) party, this may help to decide the kind of food that you might choose.

Ask yourself how much time you have, how good your cooking skills are and how much money you will spend. Both shop-bought and home-made party foods are good choices.

Where are you going to set up the food table and where do you want your friends to eat?

Remember, if it's a buffet (自助餐), the guests will need somewhere to sit, Prepare a big table for all your friends to sit at and have an indoor picnic if it's too wet or cold to be outdoors.
