American Manners

  When people in the United States have company or when they are invited to a get-together, they usually make a point of trying to make others feel comfortable and relaxed. On the whole, they like to be informal. Men shake hands, but usually only when they are introduced. Male friends and business associates who haven't seen each other in a while may shake hands when they say hello. When a woman and a man are introduced, shaking hands is up to the woman. Americans rarely shake hands to say good-bye, except on business occasions.

  American women are used to being independent. They are used to going to places by themselves, earning their own money, and often living alone. Sometimes they will ask men for help, but they usually don't want to be protected. American women may start conversations with men or even ask them to dance.

  There are a lot of Americans who don't smoke or drink, and many who don't want people to do those things in their houses. It's always best to ask for permission before you bring alcohol to a dinner or before you light up a cigarette, if you are with people you don't know very well. Nonsmokers have become more militant about smoking in public places. Many restaurants, hotels and trains, for instance, have established special sections for smokers.

  House guests may bring a gift when they come to visit, and they often offer to help in some way. As a guest, you may want to ask your host or hostess if there's anything you can do to help in the kitchen. In many cases, the gesture is more important than actually helping.

  You may have known several kinds of police, traffic police, and street police.But have you ever heard of energy-saving(节能) policemen?

  A group of 22 of these new policemen went to work last week in Beijing.They go around the city to see the use of energy in hotels, office buildings, shopping centers and onther public places.One of their aims is to make sure that these sites have set their air conditioning(空调) no cooler than 26℃.

  They also set up a special phone line so that people can tell them which buildings fail to follow the rule.

  “If everyone sets their air conditioning at 26℃, Beijing will save 400 million kilowatt-hours of electricity in one summer.That’s one-third of all the usage of the city in the season, ” said a TV advertisement.

  Other Chinese cities, like Wuhan in Hubei Province and Yangzhou in Jiangsu Province, are going to follow Beijing’s steps in setting up a similar police team.

  As one of the fastest developing countries, China is using a lot of energy.This has a great effect on the country’s environment and limited energy.

  From 1986 to 2005, the country experienced 20 warm winters continuously.Numbers show that Chinese cities have to spend billion of yuan solving(解决) environmental problems every year.

  At the beginning of this month, China made its first action plan to fight pollution.It aims to reduce energy usage by 20% and increase renewable energy up to 10% from 7% by 2010.

  To introduce the public to a green life, last week Beijing held a show on energy-saving technology and productions.Environment-friendly machines, such as a vending machine that helps colllect used bottles, have attracted lots of attention.

  “We want to tell people that there are certain ways to protect the environment.Each of us can find effective ways to do it in our daily lives, ” said Liu Qianguang, an environmental engineer in Beijing.

  Smoking in indoor public places including public working places, public transport vehicles and some other special outdoor working places has been banned(禁止)in China since January 2011.Let's look at the following advantages of banning smoking.

  First, banning smoking will not only help in saving smokers from health problems and diseases, but will also be good for passive(被动)smokers.When the smoker is smoking in a restaurant, the people around him are sure to breathe in the smoke and suffer from the diseases an active smoker gets.If smoking is banned, spread of these diseases can be controlled.

  Next, banning smoking will put stress on smokers to give up.Since a smoker is prevented from smoking, he will learn how to live without smoking for long hours.When a smoker doesn't smell or see anybody around him smoking, it might reduce his wish to smoke too.As a result, people have to give up smoking.

  Smoking in public places influences non-smokers to start smoking, especially adolescents.When teens see people around them smoking, they will follow them easily.Thus the number of teen smokers will increase.Also asthma(哮喘)and other problems are often seen in children living around smokers.So if it is banned, these places will become safe for children and teenagers.

  Looking from the economic point of view, smoking should be banned to increase work productivity(生产率).Employees(雇员)who smoke usually take breaks to smoke while working.So the number of hours they put in their work is smaller.

  If you see from the environment point of view, smoking should be banned.Smoking causes air pollution.If it is banned, it will help keep the environment from getting worse.

(1)

_________ doesn't belong to a non-smoking place.

[  ]

A.

A field

B.

A hospital

C.

A library

D.

A restaurant

[  ]

A.

banning smoking is good for restaurants

B.

  Get ready, China.The world is coming!Every day lots of foreigners come here as business people or tourists.And even more people will come in 2008 for the Beijing Olympics.When they come to China, we should do something to help them enjoy themselves and like China and the Chinese people.But there are some things they may not like:
