Driving in China

　　I have been driving cars since I reached the pedals(踏板)．In Canada you 　　1　　 16 to get a driver's license．I 　　2　　 myself to be a very good driver．

　　I visited China 20 years ago．I with my wife was in Shanghai to give a paper at a conference．We 　　3　　 the number of bicycles on the roads and the few cars．In Canada almost each family has one car, but it was 　　4　　 that most Chinese depended on bicycles．

　　I 　　5　　 Shanghai and to other Chinese cities many times since then and have watched the fast changes on the roads．There are far fewer bicycles now but 　　6　　 cars．The roads are crowded, the government has been forced to limit the number of days some cars can 　　7　　 and the traffic jams are almost constant(经常的)．So are the accidents．On a recent visit I saw four or five 　　8　　 within a two-week period．

　　To get a driver's license in Canada, you must drive, with an examiner, on real roads and in real traffic．However, in China you learn on a closed course, 　　9　　 real traffic, get a license and only then are able to drive under real roads．

　　Driving in Canada and driving in China 　　10　　 two different experiences．In Canada there are traffic jams but they aren't so bad．We have more traffic lights; we obey them and drivers are usually 　　11　　 , allowing other cars to cut in front of them knowing it won't make much difference．In China, if you stop 　　12　　 another car cut in front of you will probably be there for a long time because once one car gets in, dozens of 　　13　　 will follow．

　　I would rather 　　14　　 the bus than drive my car in downtown Shanghai and Beijing．Because it's 　　15　　 and stronger than most things that might run into it．

　　English names and Chinese names are quite different in some 　　1　　 ways, but it’s not hard for us to know．

　　Unlike Chinese, most English people have 　　2　　 names．One is their family name, both of the other names are given names．Their family name is 　　3　　 the given name．They use Mr, Mrs or Miss with the 　　4　　 name, but they never use 　　5　　 first name．For example, we can 　　6　　 a man named James Allan Green Mr Green, 　　7　　 we can’t call him Mr James or Mr Allan．People usually use Jim 　　8　　 James．Jim is short for James because it’s 　　9　　 to remember．

　　But Chinese names are the opposite．A girl with the name Han Limei 　　10　　 her family name Han first．Of course, she can be called Ah Mei for short in China if you wish．

　　In Korea, it is polite 　　6　　 something to an older person with both hands．In Italy, you don't make the OK sign with your 　　7　　．In Thailand, you don't touch a child on the head．In England, it is not polite to ask people“ 　　8　　 money do you make? ”and Americans don't mind this so much．But in both England and America, it is 　　9　　 to ask people how old they are．

　　In a word, it is very helpful and useful to know something about cultures and customs 　　10　　 different countries．
