Theyre not really bad guests, but because the guesthost relationship in China is much different than in some western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. And western hosts sometimes look rude(粗鲁的)in the eyes of Chinese guests. In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese persons home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the hosts way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest. My wifes mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesnt smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a nonsmoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, “Is it OK if I smoke？” But, dont be surprised if they say, “No, you cant smoke.” In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host. Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt_to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, dont be too surprised if they dont bring you a gift. In China, you probably wont need to change the guesthost relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.()1. Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the_ in the world.A. best B. worst C. most natural D. most different()2.

What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?A. think back to B. get used to C. look forward to D. keep close to()5. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Foreigners should learn from Chinese.B. Hosts must do things in the guests way.C. Western hosts are always nice to guests.D. People should understand cultural differences.专项训练十一 风俗文化Passage 1 【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。从食物、节日习俗、生肖和语言等方面介绍了中国悠久的文化。1. B【解析】细节理解题。题干意为：中国的人口是多少？根据第一段第二句“The population is over 1.3 billion.”可知选B。2.
