At first, I made a big cultural mistake. When I had dinner with her family, I finished all food on my plate. I thought it showed I liked the meal. But Anna’s mom looked unhappy. Later Anna told me in Canada, leaving a little food means you are full and you thank the host. Empty plates mean the host didn’t prepare enough food. I felt sorry for my rudeness. This small thing taught me a valuable lesson: Different countries have different customs. Before we visit foreign friends, we’d better learn their traditions to show our respect. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 6.

For most Chinese students, they care much about table manners and greeting ways. About 65% of them bow or nod to show respect to elders. When eating, they never stick chopsticks upright in rice, because it is seen as bad luck. Only 24% have ever taken part in foreign culture activities at school. For British teens, handshakes and eye contact are basic polite manners. Over 70% think it normal to talk freely at dinner tables. They seldom use chopsticks, so they don’t know Chinese table taboos. More than half join international sharing lessons every term. Culture teachers say crossing cultures doesn’t mean changing our own traditions. We can keep our culture while learning and respecting foreign ones. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 11. How many students took part in this survey? A. 370 B. 470 C. 570 D. 670 12.

Chinese and Western festivals come from different history and stories, but they carry the same wish — love and good wishes for family. Most Chinese traditional festivals come from ancient farming culture. The Spring Festival celebrates the start of a new farming year. Mid-Autumn Festival stands for family reunion. People eat special food like dumplings and mooncakes to show best wishes. These festivals have thousands of years of history. Western main festivals start from old religious stories and seasonal customs. Christmas records the story of kindness. Thanksgiving is a day to thank harvest and family. Western people make turkeys and Christmas cakes for big family dinners. Though festival activities and special food are quite different, all cultures value family time. Crossing cultures lets us find beauty in different traditions and learn to respect each other’s ways of celebrating. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 16. Where do most Chinese festivals come from? A. Farming culture B. Religious stories C. Modern school life D. Foreign traditions 17. The underlined word “reunion” means ____ in Chinese. A. 团聚 B. 离别 C. 丰收 D. 旅行 18.
