Question

We know good manners are important. Today I am going to tell you something about manners in different countries. I think you already know that people in different countries usually have different ways of doing things. ①Something that is rude in one country may be quite         in    
      . ②For example, in Britain you mustn’t raise your bowl to your mouth when you are having soup. That is considered bad manners in Britain. But in Japan you needn’t worry about making noise when you drink something. It shows that you are enjoying it. In Britain we try not to put our hands on the table at all during a meal. ③Guests are expected to keep their hands on the table during a meal in Mexico. In Arabic countries, we must be careful with our hands. You see, in Arabic countries you mustn’t eat with your left hand. This is considered to be very impolite. So, what should you do if you visit a foreign country? Well, you needn’t worry. You can ask the native people there to help you and you can just watch carefully and try to do what they do.

Answer 1

小題1: polite/ normal/ common; another/ others
小題2: 例如，在英國你不能在喝湯時將碗舉到嘴邊。
小題3:What are guests expected to do in Mexico?

試題分析：
小題1:根據(jù)題意，本句應(yīng)該是將兩個地方的習(xí)慣相比較，故本句的意思應(yīng)該是“有點那在一個國家是粗魯?shù)目赡茉谄渌麌�家（或另一個國家）是有禮貌對的或普通的�！彼�以本題可以填 polite/ normal/ common; another/ others。
小題2:for example是“例如”；in Britain“在英國”，raise是“舉起”。所以本題應(yīng)翻譯成“例如，在英國你不能在喝湯時將碗舉到嘴邊�！�
小題3:劃線部分是做的事情，故提問時應(yīng)該用what；應(yīng)該用疑問句語序，故用What are guests expected to do in Mexico?
點評：完成本題需要先弄清文章的意思，再根據(jù)要求來完成題目。其中第3小題比較簡單，而第1、2小題相對較難，特別是翻譯句子，應(yīng)注意句式的結(jié)構(gòu)，翻譯時應(yīng)符合習(xí)慣表達。
