"An Englishman,even if he is alone,forms an orderly queue of one'"wrote a famous British author ,George Mikes.While this sounds funny,it's a popular English stereotype  .From the supermarket to the subway,queues are a common sight on the streets of Britain. Here in China,queues are normal,too.It is a part of everyday life. People queue most of the time from buying tickets in the cinema to waiting for seats at a restaurant *But in certain situations ,you'll find yourself in the middle of a rushing crowd ,such as getting onto the subway.Even away  from the busy subway platform,queues are different* One day I was standing in line at the supermarket.I left a small space in front of me. Within seconds,a girl walked by and took her place in that small space. I was surprised at first ,but later I found these experiences very interesting.It is with these small ,every day differences that I get to live and learn in a new culture* Back in Britain,the person spends about six months of their life waiting in a queue,according to the auction site MadBid.To pass the time,maybe they tell themselves the famous proverb:Good things come to those who wait. Where would you most probably read this passage?
