A
Different countries have different social manners. Sometimes what is considered polite in one country may be regarded as impolite or strange in another. If we want to get along well with people from different cultures, learning basic manners becomes really necessary.
In most Western countries, people usually shake hands firmly and look into each other’s eyes when meeting someone for the first time. They greatly value personal space and are not comfortable standing too close while talking. They also mind others touching them casually during communication. By contrast, many people in Asian countries prefer to nod slightly or bow gently instead of shaking hands. They feel natural and relaxed to stay a little nearer when having a conversation.
When it comes to receiving praise, Westerners often accept it openly and happily, and simply reply with “Thank you” with a smile. However, Chinese people are usually modest and quiet. They are used to hiding their pride and seldom agree with praise directly. Besides, there are also clear differences in table manners. Westerners try to keep silent and never talk with food in their mouths, while chatting freely over meals is quite common and warm in many Chinese families.
Learning about cultural manners not only helps us behave properly when communicating with foreign friends, but also lets us understand cultural differences better. It is an important way to show respect and build friendly relationships with people around the world.

Linda is a middle school student who has a warm and kind heart. She always believes that small kindness can warm the whole world. In her spare time, she never spends hours playing phone games or hanging out casually. Instead, she devotes most of her free time to voluntary work at a local charity.
Every weekend, Linda walks to a special school for disabled children nearby. Some kids there are blind, some are deaf, and others have physical difficulties. Linda is always patient and friendly to every child. She helps them with their school lessons patiently, reads interesting storybooks to the blind kids, and plays simple games to cheer up those who feel lonely.

At first, Linda worried that she lacked enough experience to get along with these children. She was afraid she could not understand their needs or comfort their sadness.

Nowadays, the problem of missing good manners is becoming more and more common in daily life. It appears not only among young students, but also can be seen in some adults around us.
In school, some students run and shout loudly in hallways, leave rubbish everywhere, and talk with their mouths full of food. Worse still, quite a few students use dirty words casually in daily communication. They speak rudely to teachers, quarrel with classmates over tiny things, and show no respect to others. In public, some people still cut in line, push past others rudely, and make loud noise in libraries, hospitals and other quiet places. Some even damage public facilities and pay little attention to the feelings of the elderly and strangers.
This common phenomenon reminds us that good manners are slowly being ignored in modern life. As a matter of fact, good manners are never small or unimportant. They are the symbol of one’s personal quality and self-cultivation. To improve the situation, schools should give more lessons on manners and set clear rules. Parents must set good daily examples for their children. For us teenagers, we should stay away from bad language, correct bad habits bit by bit, and try to behave politely anytime and anywhere.
Developing good manners carries deep and far-reaching meaning. It helps us build friendly relationships with others, create a harmonious living environment, and even shapes the cultural image of our society and country. Politeness is not just simple daily behaviour, but a valuable quality that we should learn, keep and pass on all our life.
11. What is the main problem talked about in Paragraph 1
A. How to follow school rules B. The lack of good manners among people
C. How to communicate with classmates D. The importance of school education
12. Which bad behaviour is mentioned in the passage
A. Using dirty words casually B. Reading quietly in the library
C. Waiting in line politely D. Showing respect to teachers
13. What can we infer from the third paragraph
A. Good manners are only needed for students B. It takes joint efforts to improve the bad situation
C. Parents have no duty to influence their kids D. School rules can solve all manners problems
14. Who should work together to change the situation
A. Only school teachers B. Schools, parents and teenagers
C. Only teenagers themselves D. Only adult people in society
15. What is the far-reaching meaning of good manners
A. It can make people become rich quickly
B. It is only helpful for students at school
C. It influences personal relations, social environment and cultural image
D. It has nothing to do with the whole society

Chinese traditional manners are an important part of our cultural heritage. For thousands of years, they have guided people’s daily behaviour, focusing on respecting the elderly, being modest and humble, and keeping polite social communication. In ancient times, people followed strict rules in greeting, dining, visiting and public activities. These etiquette norms helped maintain order and build warm and harmonious relationships between people.
With the fast development of society, modern lifestyle has greatly changed people’s way of communication. Some complicated and rigid traditional etiquette is too formal and time-consuming for today’s fast-paced life. Young people prefer simple, casual and convenient ways to greet others and get along with each other. As a result, some old formal manners are slowly fading out of daily life.
Even so, the inner spirit of traditional manners is still priceless and never out of date. We should neither refuse traditional manners blindly nor copy all the old rules mechanically. The best way is to realize the perfect combination of traditional etiquette and modern civilization. We inherit the fine traditional values and give up those useless outdated forms.
Good manners are the mirror of one’s personal quality and social civilization. Only when we carry forward the essence of traditional manners and match it with modern daily life, can we develop proper polite behaviour suitable for the times. It is also our duty as teenagers to pass on fine etiquette culture from generation to generation.
1. What do Chinese traditional manners stress on
2. Why do some old manners fade out now
3. What is still priceless and never out of date
4. What is the best way to deal with two kinds of manners
5. What duty should teenagers take on
