Social customs and ways of behaving change. Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite behavior for a man to smoke on the street. No man who thought of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smoking when a lady was in a room.
Customs also differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn’t it matter? Should you use both hands when you are eating? Should leave one in your lap or on the table?
The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness (准时) is important both in England and in America. That is, if a dinner invitation is for 7 o’ clock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.
The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable—especially if they are your guests. When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.
The author of this article may agree with which of the following?
选项
A、The guest who ate his peas with a knife.
B、The other guests who were amused or shocked.
C、The host who picked up his knife and began eating in the same way.
D、None of the above.
答案
C
解析
事实细节题。文中最后一段提到,一位客人在进餐时错误地用刀具来吃豌豆,当其他客人感到吃惊的时候,主人为了避免尴尬也开始用刀具,并在最后一句得出结论:不礼貌就是使客人感到尴尬或不舒服。由此可知,作者比较赞同主人的做法。故选C。
