People are generally served their whole meal on a single plate, or they pass the dishes around the table for each person to take what he/she wants. In China people often put the dishes in the centre of the table. All the people eating help themselves by eating directly from the different dishes from the beginning to the end of the meal.

There are several free hours each day.Weekends are free，too.During the free time，some of the teenagers learn photography and painting.Others sit around and talk or sing.Each teenager chooses his own way to spend his free time.
When people live together，rules are always necessary.In this program the teenagers and the adults make the rules together.If someone breaks a rule，the whole group will discuss the problem.They ask，“Why did it happen?

Different countries have different customs. When you are in different countries, you should follow their customs.
In China, it's impolite to talk when you are eating dinner. And you're not supposed to start eating first if there are older people at the table.
Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip(付小费). It is usual to tip waiters, taxi drivers and porters who help carry your bags. Waiters expect to get a 15% tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect about the same amount.
In England, make sure to stand in line even if there are only two of you. It's important to respect (尊重) lines there. It's a good idea to talk about the weather. It's a favorite subject of conversation with the British.
In Spain (西班牙), it's a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you to dinner. People have dinner very late, and restaurants do not generally open until after 9：00 pm.
In Saudi Arabia (沙特阿拉伯), men kiss one another on the cheek (脸颊). Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite for you to do the same.
In Japan, people usually give personal or business cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card, don't put it into your pocket (口袋) as soon as you get it. The person expects you to read it.
Don't forget to be careful of your body language to express something in conversations. A kind of body language that is acceptable in one culture may be impolite in another.

九、任务型阅读(每小题2分，共10分) (词数：约260；建议用时：9分钟)
The people in the USA and England both speak English of course. But there are some important differences between ①________ English and ________ English. First of all, they sound very different. Often, Americans don't say each word separately. They say several words together. Americans may say “I dunno” instead of “I don't know.” However, the British are more careful in their speech. They usually say all the words and keep them separate.② Sound__is__not__the__only__difference__between__British__English__and__American__English.Words sometimes have different meanings，too. Some American words are never used in England. The same thing is true of some British words in America. For example, the vocabulary for cars and driving is very different. Americans drive trucks, but in England people drive lorries. Many expressions are also different in the two countries. There're also some differences in grammar. For example, Americans usually use the helping verb “do” when they ask a question. But the British often leave out the helping verb. All these differences can be confusing (易混淆的) if you are learning English. But most languages are like this. Languages change over time. When people live in separate places, the languages change in different ways. This is what has happened to English. It can also happen to other languages, such as French. Many people in Canada speak French.③ 但是他们的法语和法国的法语不一样。
