“Me? But you don’t know me,” said the young man.
“Yeah, it’s 50 that I don’t know you. But I know that flowers are angels that everybody 51 . We enjoy the happiness these flowers have brought us.”
The blind man’s work opened our eyes and 52 our heart, which also made his life 53 . It was just like Beethoven, who became deaf in his later life and wrote many great musical words.

Social customs (习俗) and ways of behaving change all the time. Things that were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered to be impolite behavior for a man to smoke on the street. No man who thought of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smoking when a lady was in the room.
Customs also differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn’t matter? What about table manners (行为)?
The Americans and British people not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England, people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seats to women, and so will most Americans. Promptness (准时) is important both in England and in America. That is, the dinner guest (客人) either arrive close to the time that has been made or calls up to explain his delay (耽误).
The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable —especially if they are your guests. There is an old story about a man who gave a very formal dinner party. When the food was served (服务), one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or greatly surprised, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.
【小题1】The underlined phrase “make a fool of himself” in the first paragraph means .
【小题2】 If a dinner invitation is for six o’clock, the guest is supposed to arrive at six.
【小题3】The last example in the passage shows .
【小题4】The best title of the passage is .
