问题    In China it is relatively usual to ask people their age, but in the West this question is generally regarded as impolite. This is particularly true【C1】______women, and even more so? if the inquirer is a man.
   However, it is very【C2】______to ask children their age, and some adults may not mind being asked either. In fact, some elderly people are quite happy to【C3】______their age, especially if they feel they look young for their age. Nevertheless, it is not very wise to ask a(n) 【C4】______question like " How old are you". If elderly people want to talk about their age, and perhaps receive a compliment on how young they look, they may easily【C5】______the topic themselves, and ask the other person to guess how old they are. For such a question, it is quite acceptable to discuss age【C6】______They normally expect to be complimented on their youthfulness, though rather than【C7】______that they look very old!
  【C8】______Westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not mean that they are not interested to know how old other people are. They may ask someone else for the information,【C9】______they may try to approach the topic indirectly. Sometimes discussions about educational background and the number of years of working experience may provide some clues, but this is not always the【C10】______.
