六、阅读理解。
If you stay in an Indian home,bring something from your home country as a gift. Although it is not expected,it would be much more pleasant. But find out the social position of your hosts before you choose the gift. A bottle of foreign whisky would be the perfect gift for some,but not suitable for others at all. If you know the people you are going to stay with,it is a good idea to ask them what they would like. Some things are just not available in India.
It is not necessary to bring a gift when you are invited to dinner. After all, you are the honored guest. Several years ago,it was almost unpleasant to bring sweets or a bottle of wine. But this is not true today. Nowadays it is a custom which is becoming popular with many Indians. Fruit,flowers or a box of sweets are perfect gifts,and will make no one unhappy.
In all classes of society,both in the city and in the country,food is only taken to the mouth with the right hand. This is the most important part of the etiquette (礼节) of eating in India. When you watch Indians eat something,you will see that they keep their left hands on their legs.
If you want to find a conversation topic in India,talk about families. Another useful subject to start with is cricket (板球).But once you get to know a person better,any topic is acceptable. Indians love to talk about politics. They enjoy heated discussions. Conversation is an art form and people take the time to really talk.
