仁爱版八年级下册英语阅读理解练习题
(2)
(A)
These days most people in Britain and the U. S. A. do not wear very formal clothes. But
sometimes it is important to wear the right clothes.
Many British people don’t think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable.
When they want to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theaters, cinemas and concerts you can wear whatever you like. From beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes as long as(只要) you look clean and tidy.
But in Britain and the U. S. A. , men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women wear
dresses or skirts(not trousers). Doctors and business people always wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels
and restaurants men have to wear ties and women have to wear tidy dresses.
In many ways, Americans are less formal than British people, but they are more careful with
their clothes. At home or on holidays, most Americans wear uniforms or sports clothes. But
when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. But in good hotels and restaurants,
men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes.
It’s hard to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the U. S. A., because everyone is
different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch first and then do the same. You’ll feel more
comfortable if you don’t look too different from everyone else.

Customs on Eating
Food in China and western countries is different. China has about 5,000
years’ history. They may spend half of their time on food. Chinese people
choose food very carefully. They only use fresh materials(新鲜的材料)to make food. For example, they only eat fresh fish. Chinese have a lot of ideas for cooking. They
can cook a chicken in over ten ways. That’s why Chinese food is so popular around the world.
Western countries, like England or America, don’t have fresh food because they buy their
food from supermarkets which only sell stored materials (储存的材料). Western people also prefer fast food like hamburgers and chips. They are unhealthy for man’s
body. Western people do not have many skills for cooking, mostly they only
boil, steam (蒸) and bake the food. By the way, western people are very good at making
desserts and chocolate. They can make very good cakes and chocolate. These food are
very sweet and they can make you become fat quickly.
In China, the person who invites other people for meal would pay for the meal, but
it’s not the same way in western countries. In western countries, people will think you only
invite them but don’t need to pay for them. They can afford it. They won’t be happy if you pay
for them. In western countries like America or England, people will always give
tips (小费) to the waiter after they finish the meal in a restaurant. If you don’t, the waiter will not
be happy. In China this only happens in some top restaurants and hotels in large
cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.
Another difference in eating is that:
Chinese people use chopsticks and western people use
knives and forks.
Chinese people only have three meals during a day. But western people may have more. They
usually have afternoon tea when they would have fruit, cakes or biscuits with
cheese (奶酪饼干).
