外研版初中英语九年级下册M6单元练习题 (考试时间90分钟，满分120分) 一、阅读理解（共4篇，20小题；每题2分，共40分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A A well-known saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” This means that when you’re in a foreign country, you should follow the local customs — especially when it comes to meals. If you’re planning to eat with Western friends, here are some useful tips to help you behave properly at the table. Meal times are quite different across Western countries. In most places, lunch is usually served at around 1 p.m., and dinner is eaten at 7 p.m. or even later. But in Spain, people have their own schedule: lunch is often enjoyed at 3 p.m., and dinner doesn’t start until 10 p.m.! At the beginning of a meal, people in some countries like to say something nice to wish others a good appetite. The French often say “Bon appétit”, while the Italians use the phrase “Buon appetito”. However, there isn’t a common expression for this in English. The phrase “Enjoy your meal” is usually only spoken by the person who serves the food, not the guests. Knives and forks are the main tools for most Western dishes. There’s a right way to use them: hold the fork in your left hand and the knife in your right. You use the fork to hold the food steady and the knife to cut it into small pieces. Soup is eaten with a spoon, of course. But not all food needs to be eaten with utensils — finger food like chicken wings and hamburgers can be picked up and eaten directly with your hands. During the meal, you might hear someone say “Help yourself”, which means you can take as much food as you want. Usually, ladies are invited to serve themselves first before the gentlemen. Sometimes, someone will offer you food by asking, “Would you like some...?” You can accept it politely by saying “Thank you”. If you’re given food that you don’t like, don’t worry — just say something like “I’m sorry, I don’t eat pork” or “I don’t eat seafood”. No one will be upset with you. When you’re full but still offered more food, simply say “No, thanks. It was really delicious, but I’ve had enough.” It’s polite to tell the host that you like each dish when it’s served. At the end of the meal, you should also say that you enjoyed the food very much. Knowing when the meal is over can be a bit tricky. If you’re invited to a Western friend’s home for dinner, you should stay and chat with everyone at the table long after the last dish is finished. Leaving right after you finish eating is considered impolite. So, the golden rule is: Watch what other people do, and follow their example. 1.

I was worried that I would make a mistake with the table manners. However, my host mother was very kind and taught me some important rules. She told me that in Britain, people don’t put their elbows on the table while eating. They also don’t talk with their mouths full. It’s considered rude to do so. Another thing I learned is that you shouldn’t use your phone at the dinner table. Instead, you should talk to the people around you and listen to what they have to say. I also found out that British people like to drink tea with milk. They usually have tea after meals or in the afternoon. When drinking tea, you shouldn’t slurp it loudly — you should sip it quietly. One day, my host family invited me to a dinner party. I was very nervous, but I remembered all the rules my host mother had taught me. I sat up straight, didn’t put my elbows on the table, and talked politely to everyone. At the end of the party, the host said I was a polite guest. I felt very happy and proud. 6.

Sipping tea quietly C. Sitting up straight at the table D. Listening to others talk 8. What do British people like to drink with milk? A. Coffee B. Juice C. Tea D. Water 9.

The writer made many mistakes at the dinner party C. The host mother helped the writer learn table manners D. British people don’t like to talk at the dinner table C Table manners are different from country to country. What is polite in one country may be rude in another. Here are some examples of table manners from around the world. In Japan, it’s polite to say “Itadakimasu” before eating. This means “I am grateful for this food”. You should also slurp your noodles loudly — it shows that you enjoy the food. However, you shouldn’t stick your chopsticks upright in your rice bowl. This is considered bad luck because it looks like the incense sticks used at funerals. In India, people usually eat with their right hands. The left hand is considered unclean, so you shouldn’t use it to touch food. You should also avoid eating beef, as cows are considered sacred in India. In Russia, it’s polite to leave a little food on your plate at the end of the meal. This shows that the host has given you enough to eat. You should also toast with others using a glass of vodka. When toasting, you should look at the other person’s eyes — it’s rude to look away. 11. What does “Itadakimasu” mean in Japan? A. Enjoy your meal B. I am grateful for this food C. Bon appétit D. Thank you for the food 12. Why shouldn’t you stick chopsticks upright in a rice bowl in Japan? A. Because it’s a waste of food B. Because it’s considered bad luck C. Because it’s rude to the host D. Because it’s difficult to take them out 13. Which hand do people in India use to eat food? A. The left hand B. The right hand C. Both hands D. Either hand 14. What should you do at the end of a meal in Russia to be polite? A. Eat all the food on your plate B. Leave a little food on your plate C. Say thank you to the host D. Offer to clean the plates 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Table manners are the same all over the world B. Western table manners are the most important C. Table manners are different in different countries D. How to be a polite guest in the West D Good table manners are important because they show that you are polite and respectful. Whether you’re eating at home or in a restaurant, following these simple rules will help you make a good impression. First, always wash your hands before eating. This is a basic rule of hygiene that everyone should follow. Second, wait for everyone to be served before you start eating. If you’re at a restaurant, you can start eating when the person next to you is served. Third, chew your food slowly and quietly. Don’t make loud noises while eating — it’s very impolite. Fourth, don’t reach across the table to get food. Ask someone to pass it to you instead. For example, you can say “Could you please pass the salt?” Fifth, don’t put too much food on your plate at once. Take a small amount first, and you can always get more later. Sixth, if you drop food on the table, pick it up and put it on the edge of your plate. Don’t eat it, and don’t leave it on the table. Finally, always thank the host or the waiter after the meal. A simple “Thank you for the delicious meal” will make them feel appreciated. 16. Why are good table manners important? A. Because they make you look rich B.
