四、阅读理解
In the USA, it is normal for men to shake hands when they meet, but it is quite unusual for men to kiss when they greet each other. Greetings are informal (非正式的)—a handshake, a smile and a“hello”will do just fine.
The British often simply say“hello” when they meet friends. They usually shake hands only when they meet for the first time. Social kissing, often just a peck (轻吻) on the cheek, is common in an informal situation between men and women who know each other very well.
In Japan, the common greeting for both men and women is to bow when they greet someone, instead of giving a handshake or a hug.
Hungarians (匈牙利人) like to greet others in a friendly way—kiss each other on both cheeks. The most common way is to kiss from your right to your left. When men meet for the first time, a handshake is the norm.
In Albania, men shake hands when greeting one another. A kiss on the cheek may be also common if there is a close relationship. Women may shake hands or kiss each other on both cheeks.
In Armenia, by tradition, a man needs to wait for a woman to offer her hand for a handshake. Between good friends and family members, a kiss on the cheek and a hug are also common.

Wang Lin is going to invite some American friends to a dinner party, but she is not clear about American customs. She wrote to her friend, Mary, for advice. Here is Mary's letter.
Dear Wang,
I learned that you would give a dinner party next month with some American friends. That would be interesting. I think you can cook something that would let you spend time with your guests. If a guest offers(提供) to help you in the kitchen, accept it. It often makes people feel more comfortable when they can help. I know making dumplings is a tradition in your country, and everyone can help. Why not try it
Before serving dinner, offer your guests drinks while your guests make small talk in the living room. Make sure you have soft drinks for people who don't drink wine.
At the dinner table, let your guests serve themselves. Offer them a second serving after they finish, but don't ask more than once or twice because most guests will take more themselves if they want it.
The most important rule of all is to be natural. Treat your guests as you want them to
treat you when you' re in their home. Don't try too hard to be polite.
Well, I hope it will be a great party! If you need any help, please let me know.
Yours,
Mary

China is a nation of etiquette(礼仪). Chinese people are among the most hospitable people in the world. If foreigners visit a Chinese family, they would be surprised at the warmth that they would receive as guests.
When you visit a Chinese family, the host usually makes tea for you. Then he will serve you snacks like biscuits or candy. Someone in the family will also chat with you, never letting you feel lonely.
At the same time, other family members will prepare a meal for you. Chinese people treat their guests with a big meal. They always present more food than the guest can eat.
On the table, the guests must be the first to eat. Perhaps one of the things that surprises a Western guest most is that the Chinese host likes to pick food for visitors, which won't happen at Western tables. The Chinese family try their best to make you feel at home. As you are done eating, the host usually says"It seems that you didn't eat much. Please have more.”
Being warm and hospitable has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition. As Confucius(孔子) said thousands of years ago: To meet friends from afar, how happy we are!

A. Because he thinks it's not polite.
B. Because he thinks it's not necessary.
C. Because it won't happen in Western countries.
D. Because he thinks it's too expensive.
( )9. What the Chinese family do for the guests is to __________.
A. make them feel at home B. show their wealth
C. make them feel uncomfortable D. impress them with expensive food
( )10. What's the meaning of the words by Confucius at the end of the passage
A.学而时习之，不亦说乎 B.有朋自远方来，不亦乐乎
