There are many differences between Chinese and Western eating habits. In the West,everyone has their own 26 of food. But in China the dishes are 27 on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host,there must be 28 food prepared for you. Chinese are very 29 of their culture and will do their best to show their hospitality (好客).
And sometimes the Chinese host uses their 30 to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The proper thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how 31 it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this,you can just say a polite “Thanks” and leave the food there. Don’t 32 your chopsticks upright into the rice bowl. Instead,lay (放置) them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody 33 ,the shrin e (神祠) has a bowl of sand or rice with two chopsticks which are stuck upright in it. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout (壶嘴) is facing 34 somebody. The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting,usually just outward (向外) from the table.
Don’t hit on your bowl with your chopsticks. Beggars (乞丐) hit on their bowls,so this is not polite. Also,when the food is coming too 35 in a restaurant,people will tap their bowls. If you are in someone’s home,it is like offending the cook.
26. A. table B. plate
C. favorite D. meal
27. A. made B. cooked
C. eaten D. placed
28. A. a bit of B. a bit
C. a lot of D. a little

They are: (1)green and yellow vegetables of all kinds;(2) citrus(柑橘)fruits and tomatoes;(3)potatoes and other fruits and vegetables;(4)meat of all kinds,fish and eggs;(5)milk and foods made from milk; (6) bread or cereal(谷类食物),rice is also in this kind of food;(7)butter,or something like butter.
Paragraph 2:People in different places of the world eat different kinds of things. Foods are cooked and eaten in many different kinds of ways. People in different countries eat at different times of the day. In some places people eat once or twice a day; in other countries people eat three or four times a clay. Scientists say that none of the differences is really important. It doesn’t matter whether foods are eaten raw or cooked. It doesn’t matter if a person eats dinner at 4 o’clock in the afternoon or at eleven o’clock at night. The important thing is what you eat every day.
Paragraph 3:There are two problems,then,in feeding the large number of people in the earth. The first is to find some ways to feed the world’s population so that no one is hungry. The second is to make sure that people everywhere have the right kinds of food to make them grow to be strong and healthy.

B
Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? A short time ago, a test was given in the United States. People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfast.
The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, egg, bread and milk before going to school, he or she will learn more quickly and listen more carefully.
The result is opposite to what some people think. Havi ng no breakfast will not help you lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight(增加体重) instead of losing it. You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.
41. During the test, the people were given ________.
A. no breakfast at all B. different foods or nothing
C. very rich breakfast D. little food for breakfast
42. The results show that ___________.

D. girl students should have little for breakfast
43. According to the passage, some people think that if you don’t have breakfast you will __________.
A. be healthier B. work better
C. lose weight D. los e your way
44. The word “reduce” in the last sentence means _______.
A. 增加 B. 减少
C. 放弃 D. 享用
45. Which of the following is not right?
A. It is bad for your health to have no breakfast.
B. Too little for breakfast and too much for lunch may make you fatter.
C. If you don’t eat much for lunch and supper, you may lose weight.
D. The more breakfast you have, the more quickly you’ll learn in class.
C
Nowadays more and more people in the world are getting fatter, which troubles them a lot. In the past 25 years, the number of the people with obesity (肥胖症)in Europe has grown fast. Experts say that it has a lot to do with our eating habits.
Our eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body.①Most of us prefer eating sweets and ice cream to eating meat and rice. Sweets and ice cream are not bad for us if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take away our appetite(食欲).
②It’s important for us to eat our meal at the same time each day. When we feel worried or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England, some judges often decided whether a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow the bread, it meant that he wasn’t telling the truth. A man who is worrying something has difficulty in swallowing anything dry, because he loses his appetite.

Dear Peter,
I’m glad to receive your e-mail. Now I want to tell you something about Chinese table manners.
In China the host or hostess won’t eat any dish until the guests and elders begin. You can’t tap bowls with the chopsticks. You shouldn’t reach across the table or in front of someone to get something to eat. You can’t start to eat until everyone is at the table. Also, you should toast longevity , good health or success of the host or hostess.
Welcome to China!
Yours,
Li Li
