Are British people always cold?Bad weather,bad food and cold-hearted people.That’s what comes to mind first when some people think of Britain.Many people even joke that British people are cold,because it always rains in Britain and they are always hungry.Unlike Americans,British people are very negative (消极的).“Americans are always happy,because they are always told that they can become the next president of the United States,” Ricky Gervais,a British comedian,said.“British people are told that it won’t happen to you.And they believe that.” However,a British actor found that the coldness of British people is their way of dealing with hard times.He lived in the capital at the time when the terrorist attacks (恐怖袭击) hit London on July 7,2005.“It seemed to me that most people were very calm at that time.Our silence seems to be something that gives us power when we most need it,” the actor said.
