A long time ago, people from other cultures used their hands to eat food, while the ancient Chinese invented chopsticks to keep their hands clean. Early chopsticks were used mainly for cooking until 400 AD when people began eating with chopsticks.
We don’t know exactly when chopsticks were invented. Research shows that they didn’t come into wide use until about 300 B.C. Chinese thinker Confucius (孔子) was an important person in the history of chopsticks, because he thought peace would not appear if people used knives at the table.
The “noknivesonthetable” rule brought a big change in Chinese cooking. Food had to be cut into small pieces. This practice produced the unique style of Chinese cooking that has made Chinese food popular around the world.
However, many Westerners find it difficult to use chopsticks. Eric, a foreign teacher, had the experience of learning to use chopsticks. “I need to hold them properly to be able to put the food carefully into my mouth.” Eric’s Chinese friends taught him patiently, but it still took him months to learn this skill. “But it’s worth learning. I have learnt a lot from this experience,” Eric said.
Cultures can often be understood through food. For Chinese, food doesn’t just provide energy. It also brings happiness. Chopsticks also mean a lot. As a good example of Chinese culture, they show the Chinese wisdom.
6. Why did the ancient Chinese invent chopsticks
A．Because they were hungry. B．Because they liked eating with hands.
C．Because they wanted to keep their hands clean.
7. Who thought peace would not appear if people used knives during a meal
A．Chinese. B．Confucius. C．Western people.
8. What led to a big change in Chinese cooking
A．Cutting food into small pieces. B．Using knives during a meal.
C．The “noknivesonthetable” rule.
9. How do many Westerners feel about using chopsticks
A．It brings them happiness. B．It is difficult to use chopsticks.
C．Using chopsticks is a kind of skill.
10. Where is this passage most likely from
A．A science report. B．A history textbook. C．A culture magazine.

To build good relationships with people from other cultures, it is necessary to learn how to communicate well with them. Even a little knowledge can go a long way. Here are some tips that can help you learn from other cultures.
Firstly, learn basic cultural rules. Every culture has its own small rules. For example, people in some countries shake hands to greet others, while people in other countries bow or wave hands. Before talking with foreign friends, you can learn simple greeting ways and table manners.
Secondly, speak slowly and use simple words. Don’t speak too fast when talking with people from other cultures. They may not catch your words quickly. Instead, try to use easy English words. Never use difficult slang or idioms, because these words only make sense in your own culture.
Thirdly, be a good and patient listener. Listening is as important as speaking. Look at others’ eyes gently when they talk. Do not cut in their words casually. If you cannot understand their meaning, ask politely instead of guessing. Patience shows your respect to others.
Fourthly, respect different ideas and habits. People from different cultures have different living habits and opinions. Some people like eating spicy food, but others do not. Never laugh at their choices. We do not need to agree with everything, but we must show respect.
Last but not least, smile and keep friendly body language. Smile is a worldwide language. It brings warmth to everyone. Besides, use polite body language. For example, putting hands on hips is rude in many cultures. Relax your body and keep a soft manner to build a close relationship.
11. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 1
A．Learn about the culture. B．Be polite and patient. C．Know about table manners.
12. What does the underlined word “slang” mean in Paragraph 3
A．笑话 B．俚语 C．例子
13. What should we do when others are talking
A．Cut in words casually. B．Guess the meaning without asking.
C．Look at them gently and listen carefully.
14. What’s the structure of the text
15. What’s the best title of the text
