When Xia Min started drinking alcohol with her classmates at a friend’s birthday, she didn’t realize what would happen to her. She drank a lot and fell into a coma (昏迷). The 15year-old girl from Chongqing never recovered. Xia’s death is warning to other students. A new rule went into effect on January 1, 2006. Teens are not allowed to buy or drink alcohol. Shops are not allowed to sell it to them. A 1999 Chinese law forbade (禁止) shops to sell alcohol to youths under 18.

There are a lot of differences in life in the US that you can only learn by living here. However, we will try to introduce you to some of the more important cultural differences. Personal Space When two people are talking to each other, they tend to stand a distance apart. Each person has an invisible boundary (界限) around their body into which other people may not come. Interestingly，the average personal distance varies from culture to culture. Americans tend to require more personal space than in other cultures. So if you try to get too close to an American during your conversation, he or she will feel that you are “in their face” and will try to back away. Try to avoid physical contact while you are speaking, since this may also lead to discomfort. Tipping(小费) Restaurants do not include a service charge in the bill, so you should tip the waiter 15% of the total bill. If service is slow or particular bad, some Americans will tip only 10%. If service is particularly good, it is appropriate to tip 20%. If service is so bad that you will never eat in the restaurant again, leave two cents. It tells the waiter that you haven’t forgotten to leave a tip. Tipping is only appropriate in restaurants which offer table service. You do not tip the cashier in a fast food restaurant. Gestures To wave goodbye or hello to someone, raise your hand and wave it from side to side, not front to back. Wave the whole hand, not just the fingers. Waving the hand front to back or the fingers up and down means “no”, “stop”, or “go away’. Holding your hand up with the palm facing forward but no movement means “stop”. If you want to point at an object, extend the index finger and use it to point at the object. It is not polite to point at people. Although showing your fist with the thumb up or your open hand with the tips of the thumb and index finger together forming an “O” means “OK”， these are stereotypes (老套). Americans understand these gestures, but they are mainly used by actors in movies, not in real life. 1. If an American to whom you are speaking backs away a little, you’d better __________. A. not try to close the gap B. stop talking with him or her C. back away too D. ask him or her what happened 2.Which of the following statements is TRUE when you eat out in the US? A. The tip always ranges from 10% to 20% of the total bill. B. You needn’t leave a tip if you will never eat in the restaurant. C. It’s unnecessary to tip the waiter in a restaurant. D. Tipping is not necessary in fast food restaurants. 3.Which of the following gestures is not used in Americans’ daily life? A B. C. D. . 4.We can learn from the passage that in the US ___________________. A. it’s natural to touch each other in a conversation. B. it’s polite to leave a tip though the service is bad. C. there is only one gesture meaning “stop”. D. Americans use the same gesture to point at people and objects.
