Ⅲ.阅读理解
阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)。
(2021·广东外国语学校月考改编)Different countries have different customs. So we often say, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” Here are some things that may help you.
In Korea, you are supposed to bow when you meet someone. In the Middle East, Arabs(阿拉伯人) greet each other by touching noses. In Thailand, people greet each other by putting their hands together and bowing slightly. In South America, you can expect to be hugged when you meet someone. In the US, people shake hands when meeting each other.
In China, it's OK to make a lot of noise in a restaurant. In fact, if a restaurant isn't noisy and lively, you may think there's something wrong with it. However, in many western countries, restaurants are quiet places. If a table is too loud, other people who are eating there will be unhappy.
Paying the bill is also different from country to country. In China, one person usually pays for everyone. In western countries, if friends eat together, they usually share the cost. This is called “Go Dutch”. Also, when westerners pay the bill, they usually leave some money for the waiter. This is called “leaving a tip(小费)”. Leaving a tip is thought to be polite.
In some western countries, lunch is usually eaten at about 1 p.m. Dinner is served at around 7 p.m. or even later. In Spain, it is common to have lunch at 3 p.m. and dinner at 10 p.m.
Knives and forks are used for most western food. The fork is held in your left hand and the knife in your right, and the food is held with the fork and cut with the knife. Soup is eaten with a spoon. However, there is some food which can be eaten with your fingers, such as chicken wings and hamburgers.
If you are invited to have dinner in a western family, you are expected to arrive on time. It's better for you to prepare a gift. Be seated from the left side and put the handkerchief on your legs.

You can send me a letter. I am looking forward to your reply.
Thank you very much.
