If so, is it a big bear? Is it a monkey? Or is it a kind of man? No one knows. This mystery has puzzled the world for years. In 1887, a mountain climber found large footprints in the snow. They looked like the footprints of a very large man. But men dont walk without shoes in the snow. In 1906, another climber saw more footprints. Far off, he saw a very large animal standing on two legs. As he watched, it ran away very quickly. Fifteen years later, newspapers had new stories about the “something”. A mountain climber said he had seen the “snow man” walk slowly across the snow, far before him. He said it looked like a very large man. From then on, more and more people had stories to tell. But not until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back pictures of large footprints. The pictures showed clearly that the Snowman walked on two legs. So it was not a bear or a monkey. Could it be an apemen(人猿)? The mystery grew! And the mystery keeps growing. Some day we may find out just what it is that makes the large footprints.( )21.The passage is about_.

If you understand that, you can have a more relaxing time because you wont be so worried about embarrassing yourself. When you first arrive at the restaurants you should wait for one of the restaurant staff to show you to a table. Sometimes it is OK to find a table for yourself but its better to wait. In a western restaurant, each person generally orders their own food or dishes and eats what they order. Western people dont usually put all of the food in the middle of the table and share unless they are eating pizza. One of the biggest differences between Chinese restaurants and western ones is the noise. Most western restaurants are quiet and people speak in quiet voices, they avoid shouting, especially to the staff. Both Chinese and western people love to drink with their food especially wine or beer. The difference is that usually there will only be one or two toasts during the meal. It is not necessary to toast each time you pick up your glass. When the bill at the end of the meal es, most people like to divide the bill equally by the number of people eating. This is called“going Dutch”. If the service and the food have been good, you should leave a tip. Usually ten percent of the bill is a good tip.( )26.
