Smile Train is a charity ( 慈善团体) that helps the millions of children around the world, who suffer from a facial defect（ 缺 陷 ）. The defect happens when a baby’s top lip or mouth doesn’t form properly before birth. Eating and drinking is very difficult for these babies. The charity provides free operations, which give these children a new smile, and with it, new hope and a new beginning.

Children with the defect need all the help. Although many sufferers are accepted by their families, sadly, others are not. In some countries, children with this defect are often abandoned at birth because their parents feel ashamed（ 尴 尬 ）of them or cannot afford the operations. The good news is that the operation is not difficult. It takes less than an hour and costs the family nothing. The charity raises money and finds the right medical volunteers to perform the operations.

A Smile Train doctor from the UK said, “Each child who has the operation is given a second chance at life. After years of staying at home, the children can finally go to school and be happy. Every year I perform hundreds of operations free of cost through Smile Train. Some of the stories I have heard are quite surprising.

One newborn baby girl was found abandoned on a train. Luckily for her, she was found and adopted（收养）by a passenger. This lady then heard about Smile Train and brought the baby to our hospital. I did the operation and gave hope to the family. Experienced doctors like me share our skills with local doctors. In this way make sure that these operations will always be available（可获得的）.”

Three people were sitting around a table in a restaurant in Brazil. How much do you think each of them tipped (给小费)? The British asked, “It’s common to tip 10 percent, right?” The American woman cried, “Oh, I was planning to leave 20 percent!” And the Chinese asked,“What’s a tip?”

Although it is not a custom to tip in China, tipping is a big deal in Western countries. When traveling to countries like the US and Canada, it is common to tip about 10 to 15 percent of the bill.

Usually, people give tips to a waiter or waitress when they eat in a restaurant. The US tops the list of the biggest restaurant tips, with waiters and waitresses expecting to get 10 to 25 percent of the total bill.

So if you order $100 (about 662 yuan) worth of food, you are expected to pay your waiter at least $15, making your total payment $115.

But why is this? Many waiters and waitresses get paid below the US minimum wage (最低工资) and work for tips to make up for that. According to the American travel website TripAdvisor, some states pay their servers (服务员) only $2.13 per hour. It is not just for waiters, either. Hotel maids, hairdressers and taxi drivers also usually work for tips.

Besides the US, tipping is also popular in some Southeast Asian countries, such as Indonesia and Thailand. However, in Japan there is a no-tipping culture and you may actually offend the waiter if you try to give him money.

1.The example in the restaurant in Brazil shows that _____.

A.British people know how much to tip in a restaurant in Brazil

B.tipping amounts differ from country to country in western countries.

C.it is a custom for people to tip in a restaurant in China

2.If you order $280 worth of food in the US, then it’s common to tip _____.

A.$14 B.$42 C.$50

3.Why is tipping so important in the US?

A.Because it is advised by the travel website.

B.Because waiters will offer better service

C.Because servers there are not well paid

4.From the story, we can learn a lot EXCEPT ______.

A.Tipping is popular around the world.

B.People in some Asian countries also tip.

C.It is OK to tip a waitress in Japan.

5.How many countries which have the tipping culture are mentioned?

A.5 B.6 C.7

How will the woman go to Meixi Park?

A.By bike. B.By bus. C.By taxi.
