Around the world,people have different ideas about what good table manners are.In India,for example,people only eat with their right hands.And their left hands stay still.Eating with your left hand is very rude!
In Western countries,people do not usually share the same dishes.Everyone has his or her own plate of food.You eat with a knife and fork and you should not wave (挥) them around when you are not eating.And you should try not to be noisy when eating.
When you go to some restaurants in different parts of the world,it is important to know what people think is rude.For example,in China it is OK to be noisy in a restaurant.In fact,if a restaurant is not noisy,you may think it is not very good.However,in many Western countries,restaurants are quiet places.If a table is too noisy,other customers might not be happy.
Paying for the meal is also different from country to country.In China,one person usually pays for everyone.In Western countries,when friends eat together,they usually share the cost.This is called “going Dutch”.When westerners pay the check,they usually leave some money for the waiter.This is called “leaving a tip”.Not leaving a tip is very rude.In the U.S.,it’s common to leave tips of 10%,15% or 20% of the check.
(  ) 4.What does the underlined word “still” mean in Chinese
A.安静的 B.不动的
C.然而 D.仍然
(  ) 5.What do people usually do while eating in Western countries

It was my first day as an English teacher at a Chinese school.The hot weather was very different from that in the UK.I asked a teacher where I could get water.She kindly led me to a machine.As I pressed the button (按钮),warm water filled my bottle.I was confused and said,“Sorry,I meant cold water.” She smiled and said,“We only have warm water here.” This was my first experience of culture shock.Culture shock happens when people move to a new country.However,no one talked about reverse (反向的) culture shock to me.
I stayed in China for three years.During my stay in China,I was used to the life there.When travelling around China,I would always choose to travel by train.The trains always arrived and left on time,and the QR code ( ) systems made my trips easy and efficient.
However,when I returned to my hometown,  ▲  .In the UK,I tried to take a train,but there were many delays.The trains always arrived late.When eating out in restaurants,I was surprised to find myself missing Chinese dishes.I started to feel reverse culture shock.Living in China has taught me that every culture is special.Now although I’m in the UK,I often drink warm water.
(  ) 8.What made the writer confused at the Chinese school
A.Warm water. B.Hot weather.
C.The big machine. D.The kind teacher.
(  ) 9.When travelling around China,why did the writer like to take a train

A.everything was similar
B.everything seemed different

Whether it’s putting your elbows on the table or talking with a mouth full of food,everyone has to watch their manners at some time.Manners have developed over thousands of years and are always changing.Around 100 years ago,children weren’t allowed to speak unless parents spoke to them first.Now young people can make their voices heard in many places.
Manners also mean different things in different countries.Eating food loudly is considered rude in some countries,but in others it’s a sign that people are enjoying their meal.What do you think Are manners important
Many old people think so.They say kind words and actions are good to everyone.When someone has good manners,it shows they care about other people’s feelings and want them to be comfortable.In other words,well-mannered people make the world a happier place.Manners also help keep everyone healthy,which is why people should cover their mouths when they cough and keep dirty feet off seats.
However,some young men don’t think so.They hold the idea that manners make people act in a way that doesn’t mean how they really feel.If someone says “thank you” or “sorry” when they don’t mean it,they’re not being polite.In Europe,manners were a way of showing how rich a person was,but does it really matter what type of knife people use to eat fish As long as people are kind to others,they should be allowed to act how they like.
(  ) 12.Why are the table manners mentioned in Paragraph 1
A.To start the topic.
B.To keep the tradition.

(  ) 14.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A.We need to care about others.
B.Good manners are very important.
C.Well-mannered people make us happy.
D.You can be healthy with good manners.
(  ) 15.What do some young people think of good manners
A.They are easy to follow.
B.They are very necessary.
C.They make people more relaxed.
D.They are less important than being kind.

If you’re travelling to the United States,you need to understand the common way to say hello—a handshake.Friends shake hands.16.    .
Shaking hands also seems simple,but there are some important things to remember.When you shake hands,you must look into the other person’s eyes the whole time you’re shaking hands.
17.    If you give a weak handshake,the other person might think that you’re not kind.They might also feel that you don’t like them or you don’t want to touch them.Shake hands with men and women in the same way.If you shake hands with a very old person or a little child,be careful not to hurt them.
Some people don’t know how long to keep shaking.18.    Don’t worry if Americans shake hands a little longer.
19.    It’s special to you.You need to find a comfortable handshake that shows what you are like just like a smile.
Because the handshake allows people to touch,the hand should be warm,clean and dry.Put your hands into your pockets before you shake hands.20.    If you know you’re going to meet someone,wash your hands to keep them clean.Everyone gets nervous and your hands may get wet.It isn’t a good feeling for the other person.Again,put your hands into your pockets.This will dry them.
