Around the world, people have different ideas about what good manners are.
When you go to restaurants in different parts of the world, it's important to know the right and wrong things to do. 12 In fact, if a restaurant is not noisy and lively, you may think there is something wrong with it. However, in many Western countries, restaurants are quiet places. If a table is too loud, other people there might even complain to the owner.
Paying the bill is also different from country to country. 13 In Western countries, one person pays if he or she is entertaining clients(宴请宾客). When friends get together, they usually share the cost. This is "going Dutch". Also, when westerners pay the bill, they usually leave some money for the waiter. This is called "leaving a tip". 14 In the US, it is common to leave tips of 10%, 15%, or 20% of the bill. It is decided by how good the service is. Good waiters can make a lot of money!
The way people eat food is different all over the world. 15 Chinese and Indian food, for example, are popular all over the world.

五、阅读与表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
In our daily life, direct questions are usually used to ask for information we do not know. Direct questions are either Yes or No questions such as "Are you married?" or information questions such as "Where do you live?"
It's OK to ask your friends or someone you know well direct questions. But they can seem abrupt and impolite at times especially when you are asking a stranger. For example, if you come up to someone and ask "What time is it?" or "Can you move?", he or she may refuse to answer you. It is certainly correct to ask questions in this way, but it's very common to make these kinds of questions more polite by adding "Excuse me" or "Pardon me" to begin your questions.
It's also possible to use "can" in more informal situations. In the past, "can" was not used when asking for something, but only to refer to abilities. In the United Kingdom, Cambridge University publishes books with the phrases "Can you lend me," "Can I have", etc. In the United States, this form is still considered to be incorrect, especially for written English, and "May I have" is preferred. Questions with "can" are made more polite by using "could": "Pardon me, could you help me?"
"Would" can also be used to make questions more polite. "Would you lend me your pencil?" is also polite.
Another way of making direct questions more polite is to add "please" at the end of the questions. We can say "Could you help me, please?" "Please" should not appear at the beginning of the questions.
