Here I must put in a few words about my experience here in China. If I have 36 with a Chinese host, he always presses 37 food onto my plate as soon as I have emptied it of the previous helping. That often makes me 38 very awkward. I have to eat the food even if I don’t 39 it, because it is considered  40 manners in the West to 41 one’s food on the plate.

I have also 42 that when a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he very often 43 the offer of food or drink though he is in fact still hungry or 44 . This might be good manners in China, but it is certainly 45 in the West.

In the United States, it is 46 to keep asking someone again and again or press something on him. Americans are very 47 . If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, “ 48 ” Here’s an example: When an American is offered 49 by the host, and he doesn’t like beer, he will probably say, “No, thanks. I just don’t feel like it. I’ll 50 some diet Pepsi-Cola if you have it. ” That is 51 an American will do.

52 are taught that “Honesty is the best policy. But in some countries, courtesy(谦虚)might be more important than 53 . So when I am here in China, I have to observe the 54 here. But when you go to 55 , you had better “do as the Romans do”.

Getting Around in Beijing

  Taxis

  Taxis are in the streets 24 hours a day.Simply raise your hand, and a taxi will appear in no time.They are usually red, and they display the price per kilometre on the window.You should check whether the cab has a business permit, and make sure you ask for a receipt.

  Buses and trolleybuses

  Public transport provides a cheap way to get around in Beijing.There are 20,000 buses and trolleybuses in Beijing, but they can get very crowded.It’s a good idea to avoid public transport during the rush hour(6∶30 a.m.~8∶00 a.m.and 5∶00 p.m.~6∶30 p.m.).Fares are cheap, starting at 1 yuan.Air-conditioned buses cost more.Buses numbered 1 to 100 are limited to travel within the city centre.Higher numbers have destinations in the suburbs.Tourists shouldn’t miss the 103 bus which offers one of the most impressive routes, past the Forbidden City and the White Pagoda in Beihai Park.If you get on a double-decker bus, make sure you sit upstairs.You’ll have a good view of the rapidly changing city.

  Most buses run from about 5∶00 a.m.to midnight.However, there is also a night bus service, provided by buses with a number in the 200s.

  Minibuses

  Minibuses with seats for 12 passengers offer an alternative to expensive taxis and crowded public transport in some areas.They run regular services and follow the same routes as large public buses.And in a minibus you always get a seat even in rush hours.

  Underground

  There are four underground lines in Beijing, and several lines are under construction.Trains are fast and convenient, but rush hours can be terrible.A oneway trip costs 3 yuan.Station names are marked in pinyin.The underground is open from 5∶00 a.m.to 11∶00 p.m.

  Pedicabs

  Tourists like these human-pedalled“tricycle taxis”, but they can be expensive.You should talk to the driver, and make sure you know the price before you begin the journey.For example, if it is per person, single or return.Tricycles are worth using if you want to explore the narrow alleys(hutong)of old Beijing.

Questions:

1.What’s the problem with buses?

2.What are the advantages of the underground?

3.What can you visit in a pedicab?
