Mr.Bean is an internationally recognized comedy character on TV and in films.He constantly gets into awkward and absurd situationswhich greatly amuses audiences regardless of their nationalities or culture.The humour is always made clear through a series of simple and funny acts that rely purely on body languagewhich is universal.

One of my favourite shows is that Mr.Bean has a meal in a fancy restaurant.After being seated at his tableMr.Bean takes out a cardwrites a few words on itseals(密封) it in an envelope and places it on the table.After a momenthe looks back at the envelope but this time he looks surprisedas if he did not know it was there.He opens it to find a birthday card and delightedly puts it on the table for everyone to see.

When he looks at the menuan astonished look swiftly appears on his face.He takes all the money out of his walletcounts it and puts it in a saucer(茶托)He then looks from the menu to the money with concern until he finds one thing that makes him smile.Then he orders a dish called “steak tartare”When the dish arriveshe is shocked to discover that “steak tartare” is actually raw hamburger.He makes an attempt to eat itbut it is clear from the look on his face that he finds the taste truly disgusting.He cannot hide his feelingsexcept when the waiter asks if everything is all right.When this happenshe smiles and nodsindicating that everything is fine.When the waiter is not lookinghoweverhe busies himself hiding the raw meat anywhere he can reach—the sugar bowlthe tiny flower vaseinside a bun(小圆面包) and under a plate.He becomes so desperate in the end that he even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurant’s violinist!

I like to watch Mr.Bean on TVbut I wouldn’t like to meet someone like him in real life and I certainly wouldn’t like to have dinner with him!

    Sometimes people add to what they say even when they don't talk. Gestures are the “silent language” of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood.

In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the other's arm or shoulder, some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug.

Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say, “Pardon me.” or “Excuse me.” Americans like to look at the other person in the eyes when they are talking. If you don't do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you stare at someone, it is not polite.

For Americans, thumbs-up; means yes, very good, or well done. Thumbs-down means the opposite. To call a waiter, raise one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a movement with your hands as if you are singing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger. Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them.

Learning a culture's body language is sometimes confusing. If you don't know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.

1.If you are introduced to a stranger in the USA, you should _________.

2.Which behavior is acceptable when people talk to each other in the USA?

A.shows his rudeness to you B.shows his anger to you

    A couple had two little boys aged 8 and 10 who were very naughty. They were always getting into trouble and their parents knew that if any trouble occurred in their town their sons were probably involved.

The boys' mother heard that a clergyman in the town had been successful in educating children so she asked if he would speak with her boys. The clergyman agreed but asked to see them individually. So the mother sent her 8-year-old first in the morning with the elder boy to see the clergyman in the afternoon.

The clergyman, a huge man with a loud and deep voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him strictly, “Where is God?”

The boy's mouth dropped open but he made no answer, sitting there with his mouth hanging open, wide-eyed. So the clergyman repeated the question in an even stricter tone “Where is God?” Again the boy made no attempt to answer. So the clergyman raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and shouted" Where is God?"

The boy screamed and escaped from the room, ran directly home and dove into his closet, slamming the door behind him. When his elder brother found him in the closet, he asked “What happened?”

The younger brother replied out of breath, “We are in big trouble this time. God is missing--and they think we did it.”

1.What were the two boys like?

2.What did their parents plan to do?
