Step 4

Ⅰ. 閱讀理解。

Firstly， you must be punctual （準(zhǔn)時(shí)的） with Germans. Even being 5 minutes late makes a bad impression. Being punctual is also very important in the USA. In the UK， its important to be punctual for business meetings， but nobody expects you to be on time for a social event. Half past seven really means a quarter to eight， or even eight oclock！With Russians， always be on time， but dont be surprised if your Russian contact（已有或?qū)⒂新?lián)系的人） is very late！It is not unusual for them to be one or even two hours late！

In all of the four countries， it is best to dress formally （正式地） and use dark colors. In Russia， designed clothes are very common. Dont be surprised if you go to an office in the UK on a Friday and find everyone wearing jeans. Many companies have “dressdown Friday”， when people wear casual clothes （休閑裝）.

In conversation， the British and the Americans value （重視） humor， and both like to talk about sports. The weather is also a good topic of conversation with the British， but avoid talking about politics. In Russia， say positive things about their country， but avoid making complaints.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答下列問(wèn)題。

1. Is it important to be punctual for a social event in the UK？

2. Do people in the UK dress formally on Friday？

3. What topic do the British like to talk about in their conversations？

4. Who value humour more， the Americans? or the Russians？

5. How many countries are mentioned in this passage？

Ⅱ. 閱讀理解填詞。

If youre invited to an American friends home for dinner， youd better remember the following r? ?1? ? for polite behavior. First of all， arrive on time （but not early）. Americans expect their g? ?2? ? to be on time. Its OK to be 10 or 15 minutes late but not 45 minutes late.

When youre invited to someones home for a meal， its polite to bring a small g? 3? ?. Flowers or candies are always good. If you give something that is made in your n? ?4? ? country， your host or hostess would be very happy.

The napkin should not be put into the collar（衣領(lǐng)） or vest. It should be p? ?5? ? on the lap. If you are served with some food that you dont like or cant eat， dont make a fuss （大發(fā)牢騷） about it. Simply eat what you like and hope that no one n? ?6? ? what you have left on your plate. If you are asked， you may have to say that youve enjoyed the o? ?7? ? food and have had “more than enough”. Be sure to tell the cook that you enjoyed the food.

After the dinner， dont leave at once. But dont stay too long， e? ?8? ?. When your friends seem to be getting t? ?9? ? and running out of things to say， it is time to leave. The next day， call or write a thank-you note to say how m? ?10? ? you enjoyed the evening.
