In China, it’s impolite to talk when eating dinner. And you’re not supposed to start eating first if there are older people at the table.

Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip(付费). It is usual to tip waiters, taxi drivers and porters who help carry your bags. Waiters expect to get a 15% tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect about the same amount.

In England, make sure to stand in line even if there are only two of you. It’s important to respect （尊重）lines there. It’s a good idea to talk about the weather. It’s favorite subject of conversation with the British.

In Spain （西班牙）, it’s a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you for dinner. People have dinner very late, and restaurants do not generally open until after 9: 00 p. m.

In Saudi Arabia （沙特阿拉伯）, men kiss one another on the cheek （脸颊）. Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite for you to do the same.

In Japan, people usually give personal or business cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card, don’t put it into your pocket （口袋）as soon as you get it. The person expects you to read it.

Don’t forget to be careful of your body language to express something in conversations. A kind of body language that is acceptable in one culture may be impolite in another.

Studying hard for a few days can be tiring, but it always pays off! Most people can clearly remember the fear they felt when they realized that an exam was coming near. If you are in this situation, don’t w【1】. Many people have proved that there is enough time to study if you arrange it well. Here are some tips to help you.

Calm down! Fear will only make your situation much w【2】. You will be focusing on the horror, not the coming exam. Many times, fear can even stop you from doing well in the exam. If you are nervous, take a deep b【3】, and tell yourself that you can do this well.

Study the most important topics first. Exams usually cover a few main ideas, contents, or skills. When you are short of time, focus all your energies on the k【4】 areas. Review the most important topics in textbooks and the parts your teacher said again and again. These are all clues for you to study first.

Decide what subjects you don’t know enough about. Do more study on these subjects because some parts probably still r【5】 reviewing, but they will come to you more easily this time. Then you can try to focus on more challenging (具有挑战性的) topics.

Studying t【6】 can be helpful. Since you don’t get any extra points for reviewing your lessons alone, classmates can be really helpful in studying. Ask for help from your parents, brothers or sisters. They may really enjoy being asked. From a study group, you not only have the advantage of studying with people who you are familiar with, you also have more c【7】 to make more friends and have more additional help through helping each other.
