21、In America, just as in Europe, men usually open doors for women, and women always walk ahead of men into a room or a restaurant, unless the men have to be ahead of the ladies to choose the table, to open the door of a car or do some other things like the above. On the street, men almost always walk or cross the street on the closer side of the ladies to the traffic. But if a man walks with two ladies he should walk between them.

22、 American eating is funny. People in America eat almost everything with a fork. And it seems that holding a knife in one's right hand longer than a few seconds is thought to be against good table manners.
The system (制度,规则) is that if it is necessary to use a knife, people take the fork in their left hands, and cut off a piece of meat or others. Then they put the knife down, transfer the fork to their right hands, and then transfer the food to their mouths with the fork. This is clearly funny, but it is considered good manners.
There are several results of this system. First, if it is not necessary to use a knife, Americans don't use one, because this greatly complicates (使复杂化) things. Therefore, sometimes they will try to cut things like potatoes and even bacon with a fork. Second, since only one implement (器具) is being used, food has to be chased around the plate with the fork. Third, tables are usually laid with one knife and two forks. The outside fork is for the salad. There is no need for foreign visitors to follow the American system and try to eat the salad with only a fork, but if you do use your knife, remember to save it for the meat.
【1】Why does the writer think American eating is funny?
A.Because the American food is funny.
B.Because Americans have good table manners.
C.Because Americans don't use knives at all.
D.Because Americans use a fork to eat almost everything.
【2】If it is necessary to use a knife, people put the fork ?
A.In their left hands. B.In their right hands. C.On their plates. D.On the table.
【3】How many results does the system have according to paragraph 3?
A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.
【4】If you go to an American family to have dinner, you need to .
A.follow the American system B.try to eat the salad with only a fork
C.save your knife for the meat D.save the fork for the meat
【5】What's the best title of the passage?
A.Tables Manners. B.Funny American Eating
C.Eating Customs in America. D.The American system.
