Different countries have different cultures（文化）. Do you want to know more cultures about other countries? Here are some messages you may be interested in.
Taking off your shoes or not
It’s bad manners（举止）to take off your shoes at the door of a London dinner party. But in Asia you should take off your shoes before going into a home, or people will think you are not polite enough.
What you should do instead: If you see a row of shoes at the door, take off your shoes. If not keep the shoes on.
Talking over dinner
In some countries, like Japan, don’t start talking while everyone else is having dinner. You’ll meet with silence － not because your group is unfriendly, but because mealtime is for eating, not for talking. Also don’t talk loudly in public places like museums, restaurants in Europe.
What you should do instead: Keep quiet when having dinner! Speak in a low voice in public places.
Knowing your right from your left
Some cultures in Africa and the Middle East still like to eat in traditional（传统的）ways － using their hands. When people eat in this way, food is often offered for several people to share at the same time. That is why it’s important to wash your hands before eating. While eating, you have to follow the rule: Eat using your right hand, and use your left hand to do other things. Another rule to remember: Eat the food that’s closest to you. Don’t put your hand into the center of the table.
What you should do instead: Follow the others and use your right hand. Even children who are left-handed in this culture are taught to eat with their right hands. If you really can’t, explain yourself to others before you eat.

You probably enjoy visiting the zoo， but at one time people visited a zoological garden． Zoo is short for zoological garden． When a word has been shortened， it is called a clip． For example， a ref is a short form of the word referee． Over time， many words in English have been clipped． Perhaps you go to and back from school on a bus． Students traveled on an omnibus in the past． Math and exams are short for mathematics and examinations． A mike is a short form of a microphone． Something that is a curio was once a curiosity．
When you visit a zoological garden， you may see "rhinos" if you are lucky enough． This animal certainly has a big nose ﹣﹣ in the Greek language， "rhinos" means "nose"． In English， a rhino is the same as a rhinoceros． Other words have rhinos in them， too． A rhinovirus might affect your nose． This virus is what people get when they have a cold． When you have diseases in the nose， you must see a rhinologist， who can treat you．
But on the other hand， some words are really combinations（结合体）of two or more words． The new words are called blends． The meaning of a blend shows the meanings of both words it comes from． For example， the words smoke and fog blend to make smog． Do you know what motor and hotel make when combined？ You're right ﹣ it's motel． Which two words do you think brunch comes from？
1.Which of the following is a clip？
A. Examination．
B. Referee．
C. Curio．
D. Motel．
2.Which of the following is a doctor？
A. Rhinos．
B. Zoological．
C. Rhinovirus．
D. Rhinologist．
3.What does the underlined word "brunch" mean？
A. 早午餐
B. 长板凳
C. 大树枝
D. 浅海滩
4.What can you conclude from the passage？
A. It is hard to learn clipped words．
B. Riding on an omnibus was not safe．
C. Clips are easier to pronounce and spell．
D. People don't like to use short words．
5.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about？
