　 ________must be hungry．

[　　]

Today, many people are starving to death. Recently, a man who wanted to understand the conditions of such people conducted an experiment. He only ate one meal a day for a month but continued to work as he normally did.

During the first five days he was hungry at his  1  mealtime, but after he had drunk a glass of water, his hunger went away. In the morning, when he ate his one meal, he ate quickly and had a   2   amount. During the next few days,   3 he was not hungry during the day, he quickly   4  every food stall (a table on which food is put to be sold), and the smell of food caught his    5   . During the third and the fourth weeks, he had hunger pains and    6    physical strength. He    7     his one meal and ate it slowly, enjoying every bite.    8    it, he knew he would have hardly enough energy to work.

　   This   9   changed his attitude about some things. Having a cup of tea was not just a pastime. It also  10   him strength. He more frequently noticed overweight people and people who threw   11  leftover food. He realized the importance of   12   for the very hungry person. He could no longer easily    13    by a hungry beggar on the street. But most   14   , he could now sympathize(同情) in a   15    way with the hungry people of the world.

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”.
