I’m from Egypt. Last year, I had the chance to study in Canada for six months. It was my first time 1 a Western country, and I learned many valuable lessons about cultural differences.

The weather was much colder than Cairo. People dressed differently and spoke English so fast. At first, I felt 4 and missed my family terribly. The biggest challenge was the 5 . In Egypt, we eat with our hands or use bread to pick up food. Using a knife and fork was very difficult for me. I made a mess several times and felt 6 . But my host family was very patient. They encouraged me and even 7 me how to use them properly. Another interesting thing was 8 . In Canada, people often say “sorry” and “thank you” many times a day. They also hold doors open for strangers. In Egypt, we are also polite, but in different ways. I learned that 9 cultures have different ways of showing respect. By the end of my stay, I felt much more comfortable. I made good friends and even learned to love poutine, a Canadian dish! This experience taught me that although we come from different 10 , we share the same human feelings.

I’m from Egypt. Last year, I had the chance to study in Canada for six months. It was my first time 1 a Western country, and I learned many valuable lessons about cultural differences. Before I left, my mother gave me some 2 : “Always be polite and respect others, even if things seem strange to you.” I kept her words in my heart. When I arrived in Toronto, everything felt so 3 . The weather was much colder than Cairo. People dressed differently and spoke English so fast. At first, I felt 4 and missed my family terribly. The biggest challenge was the 5 . In Egypt, we eat with our hands or use bread to pick up food. Using a knife and fork was very difficult for me. I made a mess several times and felt 6 . But my host family was very patient. They encouraged me and even 7 me how to use them properly. Another interesting thing was 8 . In Canada, people often say “sorry” and “thank you” many times a day. They also hold doors open for strangers. In Egypt, we are also polite, but in different ways. I learned that 9 cultures have different ways of showing respect. By the end of my stay, I felt much more comfortable. I made good friends and even learned to love poutine, a Canadian dish! This experience taught me that although we come from different 10 , we share the same human feelings. I hope to visit more countries in the future. 1．A．visiting B．leaving C．missing D．building 2．A．stories B．questions C．advice D．problems 3．A．wonderful B．familiar C．strange D．exciting 4．A．happy B．excited C．lonely D．relaxed 5．A．language B．transportation C．weather D．food 6．A．proud B．embarrassed C．confident D．surprised 7．A．asked B．told C．taught D．showed 8．A．politeness B．rudeness C．sadness D．happiness 9．A．similar B．different C．same D．easy 10．A．countries B．cities C．schools D．families Last year, I went to an international school in Russia. When the New Year was coming, my Russian friend, Andrey, 1 me to celebrate it in his home. His village was in the western part of Russia. After lunch we headed west by plane. On the way, I asked if they had different table 2 in their area. He smiled and told 3 not to worry. When we came into the house, all the family members stood up to 4 us. It was a big wooden (木制的) house, clean and warm. A tall New Year tree with lights, stars and colorful balls was 5 near the fireplace (壁炉). All the family members were in traditional 6 costumes. New Year dinner was 7 . Forks and knives were already on the table. They even prepared a pair of 8 for me. Everyone raised their glasses and drank to our health and friendship at the table. We enjoyed delicious salad, bread, fish and chicken. They were so delicious that I wished to eat up all of them. But I knew it was 9 and impossible. Then we sang and danced 10 late at night. It was really a wonderful celebration. I experienced a different culture during the New Year vacation.

Although I wasn’t great at 1 when I was a kid, I 2 it by travelling to places like Beijing, Dali and Kunming. An 3 time for me was two summers ago when I went to Hangzhou. I joined a program where I became an English teacher for primary school kids. This 4 let me learn more about the Chinese language and traditions. Our classroom was like a melting pot (熔炉) of ideas, with lots of language sharing and laughter. My travels and 5 experience in Hangzhou completely changed how I see the world. It made me 6 the close relationship between different countries, and now I want to be a global citizen (世界公民). I want to help people from different countries understand each other, 7 between China and the US. In China, we see a lot of 8 of American culture. However, I couldn’t find many signs of Chinese culture in the US, except for Chinese 9 . I went to some but found the food there very different from real Chinese food. I think China still has much to do to further promote (推动) its cultural influence among the American people. As for me, I will 10 to be one of those who can help deepen the understanding between China and the US. 1．A．Chinese B．Spanish C．French 2．A．appeared B．improved C．graduated 3．A．awful B．important C．embarrassing 4．A．class B．survey C．experience 5．A．teaching B．loving C．guiding 6．A．change B．remind C．realize 7．A．especially B．seriously C．actually 8．A．programs B．dreams C．signs 9．A．restaurants B．shops C．farms 10．A．regret B．continue C．happen Chinese people love tea, just like Westerners love coffee. A host often 1 his guests by serving them a cup of tea in China. It’s a traditional 2 . In Chinese tea culture, there are some 3 to follow. We call them tea manners, just like table manners. 4 , guests should sit in order of importance from the left-hand side of the host. It 5 that older and superior (地位高的) guests usually sit down first. Don’t sit face to face with the host because people think it is 6 . If it is inevitable (不可避免的), children should take this seat. Secondly, when the host serves guests with tea, guests should 7 the tea cup with both hands. Don’t forget to 8 your thanks to the host. In China, finger tapping (敲) is a 9 way to give silent (无声的) thanks to the person pouring tea for you. Do you know 10 to do it? Each time another person 11 your cup with tea, just tap the table three times with two fingers (sometimes, one or five). Thirdly, people usually 12 tea in a small cup. Usually, Westerners 13 bigger cups when they are drinking hot coffee, so that it won’t get cold quickly. But Chinese people want the tea to cool 14 . However, no matter what 15 the cup is, don’t drink the tea at once. 1．A．waits B．welcomes C．expects D．meets 2．A．decision B．symbol C．note D．custom 3．A．rules B．reasons C．plans D．changes 4．A．Firstly B．Lastly C．Finally D．Suddenly 5．A．notices B．means C．reminds D．helps 6．A．unusual B．uncommon C．impolite D．impossible 7．A．receive B．refuse C．bring D．catch 8．A．exchange B．express C．realize D．create 9．A．strange B．wrong C．difficult D．common 10．A．how B．when C．why D．where 11．A．washes B．takes C．heats D．fills 12．A．sell B．discover C．serve D．buy 13．A．dislike B．prefer C．enjoy D．allow 14．A．better B．harder C．slower D．faster 15．A．colour B．size C．shape D．smell Do you know how to make a good first impression on someone from other countries? Knowing their 1 of greeting is the key. Here are some manners to greet people 2 . Firstly, in Western countries like the US and the UK, people often shake hands in formal occasions. In informal moments, friends may hug or 3 fists—a quick touch of fists. In France, 4 on the cheek is common, but the number of kisses varies — one in some places, two or more in others. In Asian countries, 5 shows respect. In Japan, people bow. The deeper the bow, the more polite it is. In China, shaking hands is popular, but bowing is still used on special 6 , like the Spring Festival. In some Middle Eastern countries, men may 7 with a handshake and a light kiss on the cheek. What if we’re not used to these customs? 8 we know the culture well, it’s safer to smile and wait for others to act first. Using a(n) 9 greeting, like hugging in a formal or serious situation, can make others feel uncomfortable. Remember: every country has its own way to say “hello”, but the goal is the same — to be polite and kind. Learning these greetings helps us understand the 10 differences and makes the world colorful! It also helps us enjoy the experience of meeting a foreign friend. 1．A．signs B．manners C．symbols D．habits 2．A．correctly B．thankfully C．surprisingly D．importantly 3．A．wash B．push C．bump D．test 4．A．kissing B．beating C．touching D．reaching 5．A．bowing B．sitting C．standing D．hitting 6．A．problems B．emotions C．places D．occasions 7．A．cheer B．greet C．welcome D．invite 8．A．Unless B．While C．Because D．Although 9．A．proper B．private C．improper D．direct 10．A．usual B．local C．cultural D．informal 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
