In
England
recently
three
foreign gentlemen
came
to
a bus
stop
and
waited .
About
five
minutes
later,
the
bus
they
wanted
came
along.
They
were
just
going
to
get
on
when
suddenly
there was a loud noise behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the
way . Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all
the trouble was about. The three foreigners seem all at sea and looked embarrassed (
窘迫的

. No
one had told them about the British custom (
习惯
)of lining up for a bus that the first person who
arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus .


Learning the language of a country isn't enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out
as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. You will probably be
surprised
just
how
different
they
can
be
from
your
own.
A
visitor
to
India
would
do
well
to
remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The
left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking
his head at another to show that he doesn't agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head
means agreement. Nodding (
点头
) your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will most
probably leave you thirsty .


In that country, you shake your head to mean 'yes'
—
a nod means 'no' . At a meal in countries
on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeated refilled as soon as you drink up .
If you think that you have had enough , you should take the cup or glasses in your hand and give it
a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.


In Europe it quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an
important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could bring about trouble . Also, you should
try to avoid (
避免
)touching the head of an adult (
成人
)
——
it's just not done in Thailand .


1. The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way, because the gentlemen
_________ .






A. were foreigners





C. made a loud noise




B. didn't have tickets
D. didn't line up for the bus



2. According to the article, if you want to have a pleasant journey in a foreign country, you
should _________.









A. learn the language of the country
B. understand the manners and customs of the country
C. have enough time and money



D. make friends with the people there



3. In India it is considered impolite ___________.













A. to use the right hand for passing food at table.
B. to pass food with the left hand.

平常的
) habit





B. an important manner

严重的
) trouble

5. The best title (
题目
) for this article is ________.



A. People's Everyday Life




B. Mind Your Manners

C. Shaking and Nodding Head



D. Taking a Bus in England

参考答案



答案及解析：



1
．
D
。这是一道句子理解题，也可以看成细节题。在第一自然段的最后，有这样的句
子：


No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus that the first person
who arrives at a bus stop is the first person to get on the bus
．
从此句可知那三位先生并不知道在英国乘车的习惯，所以答案是
D
。



2. B
。这是一道细节题。答案在第二自然段的第二个句子。



3< br>．
B
。同第二题一样，此题也是细节题。可在第二自然段直接找到答案。



4
．
A
。单句理解题。最后一个自然段中有说：
In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs
When you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting
．这个句子的意思是：在
欧洲，开会时翘二郎腿是很常见 的。这说明许多人有这样的习惯，所以答案应该是
A
。



5
．
B
。通读全文就会发现，只学习一门外语是不够的，还要多了解该国的风俗习惯 ，
否则就会遇到麻烦，所以答案是
B
。
