题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Many years ago, I had my first chance to visit Russia. "Russians are a very polite people," I had been told before my arrival. One of my friends explained that a gentleman will pour the lemonade for the ladies and show other good manners.
Toward the end of my three-week trip, I was invited by my Russian friend Nicolai Vasilevich and his wife Yulya out to dinner. At the end of a wonderful meal, Yulya asked if I would like a banana. I politely declined(婉谢) and thanked her, and explained I was most satisfied with the meal. But my mind was racing: "What should I do? Should I offer her a banana though they are as close to her as they are to me? What is the polite thing to do?"
"Would you like a banana?" I asked Yulya.
"Yes," she smiled, but didn't try to take any of the three bananas in the fruit basket.
"Which one would you like?" I asked again.
"That one," she pointed at one of the bananas. So thinking about Russian politeness, f picked the banana Yulya had pointed at. Then I peeled it half way and handed it to her.Smiles on Yulya's and Nicolai's faces told me I had done the right thing. Alter this experience, I spent much time letting the world know that in Russia, the polite thing was to peel bananas for ladies.
However, sometime during my third trip i learned I was wrong.
"Oh no, David," a Russian politely corrected me.  "In Russia, when a man peels a banana for a lady, it means he has a romantic interest in her." How embarrassed (尴尬) I felt.
So to communicate properly with people of different cultures, we should watch carefully how people of the same culture communicate with each other. Besides, don’t be afraid to ask questions about their culture.

    I think the most terrible thing in life for my little brother is getting up in the morning. He is almost sick
when my mother calls, "Herbert! It's seven o'clock! Get up!" Herbert answers, "I'm coming!" and goes
right back to sleep. I'm not at all like my brother. I don't like to go to bed at night but I don't mind getting
up in the morning. I usually wake up before my mother calls me. I jump out of bed and go into the bathroom
to take a shower. I get dressed, brush my teeth, comb my hair, and get ready to go downstairs for breakfast
as soon as my mother calls. But not Herbert. He just sleeps. A military band (军乐队) in our bedroom could
not wake him up. I call him and say, "Get up! Mum will be up here to pull you out of bed if you don't get up
immediately!" But he just sleeps. After calling a few more times my mother has to come upstairs and pull
Herbert out of bed. It's that way every day with my little brother. Perhaps some day he'll learn to get up on
time, but I really don't think so.
