I have been in China for a month. My Chinese friends are very kind and make me feel at home, but I have noticed some 1 (interest) differences in manners.
In the UK, people always use “please” to be polite. Chinese people have their own way. For example, they usually use nín to call others in formal situations. Using nín is a good way to 2 (polite) and respect.
When it comes to praise, Chinese people act 3 (different) from British people. If someone says my Chinese is good, I 4 (be) happy and tell them I love learning Chinese. But when I praise my Chinese friends, they often smile and say “Nali, nali” instead of 5 “thank you.” They are too modest to accept praise directly.
In China, eating together is a special way for people to get close. Once, my host 6 (invite) me to dinner. He was very hospitable, asking me to eat more and 7 (put) food on my plate. This was his way 8 (show) care. I was too polite to refuse. In the UK, people ask guests if everything is OK and 9 if they want more drinks to show care. It’s hard to get used to these differences at first. My advice is that when in another country, do as 10 local people do.

五、传统文化 阅读理解。
The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for elderly people in China. The festival is on the ninth day of the ninth Chinese lunar month.
As the Chinese number for nine has the same pronunciation as the Chinese character “jiǔ”, people take the Double Ninth Festival to show their loved ones their wishes for long life.
There are many traditions for this festival. On that day, all family members get together and climb mountains for good luck and in the hope that elderly people will live much longer. They also drink chrysanthemum wine (菊花酒) and wear a plant called zhuyu to celebrate it. Both chrysanthemums and zhuyu are regarded as plants that can cure diseases.
Respecting elderly people is shown not only on this special day but also in daily life. For example, when there are expensive guests at the table, the host usually introduces them as the oldest to the youngest. When a younger person is presenting something to an older person, two hands are used. And __.
It is a traditional virtue (美德) in China to respect elderly people. That’s because the Chinese know that elderly people have more knowledge and experience that young people can learn from. So, Chinese people are proud of being old. Besides, to respect the elderly people is to respect yourself tomorrow.
