For the British, the home is a private(私密的) place where he or she goes to hide away from
the troubles of life. It is not very common that one would be invited to a British person's home. It
is rude to knock on a person's door if you are not invited. If you are invited, don't ask to see more
than the downstairs that your British host invites you into. Never ask how much the house or any
of the things in it costs.
To the Americans, most of them want their home to be a place where they can entertain(款
待) and share their lives with their friends. They may be happy to give you a full tour of their
houses. They may also be pleased when you show your interest in their houses.
Both British and American people will engage in quite a bit of talk and a drink or two before meals. After the first mouthful, you should say how delicious the food is and ask
something about it. Remember, never eat with your mouth open and make very little noise while
eating. It would be nice of you to help your host in any way. Maybe offer to pour( 倒) some
drinks or clear up after the meal.
56. British people ____ invite friends to their home.
A. often B. always
C. not very often D. never
57. When you show your interest and pleasure in American people's houses, they may be ____.

Years ago, Tareq and his family left their home in Bangladesh to New York City, the US.
Tareq was only 12 years old then.
In Bangladesh, Tareq's dad was a farmer. He worked hard for little pay. Every day, Tareq
walked 6 kilometres to school. After school, he had to work on the farm.
But Tareq had fun. He loved singing and playing cricket (板球) with his friends. One day
Tareq's dad told him they would move to New York City. Tareq's dad found a new job there, and he thought life would be better there.
In his new school, Tareq tried his best to understand his teachers, but it was quite hard. Also,
he had few friends.
Things changed when he started high school. His high school had students from 30 countries
and a cricket team. Tareq was excited to join the cricket team. He was happy to be with kids who
loved the game as much as he did. He practised before and after school. “ Playing with the
cricket team was the first time I felt accepted in America,” he said. “When you play, it
doesn't matter what grade you're in or what language you speak. ”
During his second year in high school, Tareq was named the cricket team's most valuable
player (最有价值球员).
Tareq will go to university next year. He said, “Most universities don't have a cricket team.
But that's OK, because cricket was there for me when I needed it most. ”

Now over the years, real Chinese snacks have become more popular in foreign countries.
In the United States, people are eating roujiamo. Many people call roujiamo from Shaanxi
Province of China the “Chinese hamburger”. It has two pieces of bread with delicious meat
between them. The US news blog(博客) even regards roujiamo as “the world's first hamburger”.
It is very similar to an American hamburger. In fact, it has a long history in China.
In Russia, hundreds of tanghulu were sold out in just a few hours. Tanghulu is a traditional
Chinese snack that is made of fruit, usually Chinese hawthorns(山楂). It is a bit like candy apples
in the US. They are the hawthorns with sugar candy. A stick is pushed into the fruit so you can
hold it like a lollipop(棒棒糖). Some Chinese people think tanghulu has the same shape as a
bottle gourd(葫芦). That's why it has this name. Of course, the new kind made of other fresh fruit
such as strawberries and oranges also appears in China now.
Youtiao is like a popular snack in Spain. Some people outside China eat youtiao as well. For
example, people in Malaysia eat it. They often eat it with milk tea or noodles. In Indonesia, they
eat it with porridge(粥) instead of doujiang in China.

floor and woke up the whole family to prepare for the New Year breakfast together—dumplings.
While wrapping( 包 ) up a coin into a dumpling, Wang said that the person who found this
dumpling would make big money in the coming year.

rice. On Thursday morning, Zhang Menghui in Hangzhou will put on new clothes and sit down
to enjoy tangyuan with her family. “Whenever I return home for New Year,we eat sweet
tangyuan together,” she said. Zhang works in Hong Kong and returns home twice a year.

his wife spent a whole week preparing the New Year dinner. “We'll stay at home on the first
day of New Year according to the tradition. We'll visit our relatives tomorrow and the day after

Dear Mary,
Different countries have different customs. Now let me tell you some Chinese manners and
customs.
When you walk in China, you must walk on the right side of the road. When you meet other
people, you must say hello to them instead of bowing. When you eat something, you are
supposed to use chopsticks. The host often asks you to eat more food. If you are full, you don't
need to eat up the food on the plate. After you finish the meal, the host often makes tea for you.
Before you leave the house, you must say goodbye to the host politely.
I hope you will come to China very soon.
Yours,
Lingling
