The hottest cities in the world The locations below are the hottest and also travel destinations on the planet．
Bangkok
According to the data，Bangkok is the hottest city on the planet - not because of any particularly impressive high temperatures，but because it is consistently hot all the year round．The city has an average annual temperature of 29℃，coupled with high dampness and an average of 128rainy days per year；while the highest temperature on record is 40℃．Timbuktu，Mali
Located on the southern edge of the Sahara Desert，the African city of Timbuktu is similar to everything remote．It's also one of the hottest cities in the world，with a hot，dry climate offering record highs of 49℃．Throughout April，May and June，average maximum temperatures are beyond 40℃．Modern-day Timbuktu is slowly being swallowed by the desert and is certainly a shadow of the trade center that it once was．
Ahvaz，Iran
Built on the bank of the Karun River，Ahvaz is an industrial city with average highs of around 46℃ during July，its warmest month．The city's record high is 54℃，making it one of the world's hottest cities during the summer．Frequent sand and dust storms and an absence of rain from July to September mix with its sky-high temperatures．
Kuwait City
The wealthy capital of Kuwait is another competitor for the title of the world's hottest summertime city with average highs of over 45℃ from June to August．Nightfall brings little respite（缓解），with after-dark low temperatures often over 30℃ during the summer months．Kuwait City's record high is 52℃，while it rains on an average of just 19 days per year．

The other day I was shopping at the local Chinese grocery store．There was a line at the fish counter，but only one staff person was there to take care of the customers．Some customers
ordered quite an amount of fish for that staff person to work on．At last I was the second in line；all I wanted was a couple of crabs and should get out of there in no time．
Noticing it was very busy at the fish counter，another staff person came over to help．I was ready to be served，but the staff person went to the end of the line and began to help a couple of ladies with snails （蜗牛）．The customer in front of me，being served，turned around and looked at me sympathetically，and the customer behind me called to the staff person，"You should start her，"pointing at me．He was，well，ignored．
If someone asked me，"What is the most important rule to follow in America？"I would reply without hesitation，"Wait your turn at all times．"Wherever you go here in this country，you will find people waiting in a line quietly to get anything：whether in the supermarkets，department stores，bus stops，or gas stations，it's just a matter of waiting your turn．In a larger sense，"wait your turn"is more than just a guideline-it is a very basic norm （准则）that reflects the fundamental value of the western cultures．But in some situations your turn does not always come based on when you get there and how long you have waited in line，just like my case at the store．Even though this did not often happen，it did make me feel upset．

One of the most important things in the world is friendship．In order to have friends，you have to be a friend．But how can you be a good friend at school？
Listen - Listen when they are talking．Don't say anything unless they ask you a question．Sometimes it's not necessary for you to have anything to say；they just need someone to talk to about their feelings．
Help them - If your friend is ever in need of something，be there to help them．You should try to put them first，but make sure you don't do everything they want you to do．Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case they forget one．Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need．
Be there for them - Be there for your friends to help make them feel better in hard times．Marilyn Monroe，a famous U．S．actor，once said，"I often make mistakes．Sometimes I am out of control，but if you can't stay with me at my worst，you are sure not to deserve to be with me at my best．" Always remember this!
