They can be as important as what you will do in the future or as simple as what you will eat for breakfast. Any decision could be the turning point of your life. I made an important decision when I was in Junior 3. Before I made that decision I was one of the boys who tried too hard to act as an adult. I didnt know that only kids wanted to show themselves as adults. I didnt listen to my parents and teachers, and my grades became poor, then came the high school entrance exam. At the turning point of my life, my mom wanted to have a conversation with me. I wanted to turn it down but when I looked at her eyes, I felt I couldnt refuse. Instead of asking me to study hard, to my surprise, Mom just asked what I wanted to do in the future. Without thinking too much, I just said I would like to study hard. Mom smiled and asked again: “I asked: what do you WANT to do?” I never seriously thought about the question. So, I kept silent. “Whether you want to go on studying or enter the society,” she went on, “it is your own decision. Your life ought to be decided by you, not by anyone else, including me. ” After saying that, she had tears in her eyes. For the first time in my life I was asked to make my own decision. I sat in my chair and thought about myself, my life and what kind of person I wanted to become. It took me what seemed to be ages to make the biggest decision so far in my lifeI wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To achieve that, I needed to study hard. The path to my future became clear to me. I didnt act rebelliously(叛逆地) any more. With passion (激情) in my heart, I studied hard. Now, Im 17 and Im in one of the best schools in my city, in one of the best classes at the school and I am one of the best students in the class.

Americans often tip people in places like restaurants, airports, hotels, and hair salons. People who work in these places often get paid low wages.(工资). A tip shows that the customer is pleased with the service. Sometimes its hard to know how much to tip. It usually depends on the service. People such as parking valet(侍从) get small tips. The tip for people such as taxi drivers and waiters or waitresses is usually large. Here are a few guidelines for tipping in the United States: Airport porters : $ 1 or $ 2 for carring each suitcase . Parking valets : $ 1 for parking a car . Hotel door attendants : $ 1 or $ 2 for getting a taxi. Taxi drivers: 15 percent of the bill : more if they help you carry bags. Waite rs and waitresses : 15 to 20 percent of the bill (There is no tipping in fast-food restaurants.) Stylists(理发师): 15 percent of the bill. When you are not sure about how much to tip, do what feels right. You dont have to tip for bad service. And you can give a large tip for very good service. Remember, though, your behavior is more important than your money. Always treat service providers with respect. ( )51. A tip shows that the customer is _ with the service.

Its more important to respect providers C. The more tips you give, the better service you get D. In any case, you must leave tips. D In Thailand, people do not eat with chopsticks, unlike in China, Japan and Korea. They use spoons and forks. 56 People will cut most food before meals. If you need to cut food during meals, use the side of your spoon first and then use your fork. 57 People in Thailand use spoons more often than forks. If you are left-handed , keep the sp oon in your left hand and the fork in your right hand. People in Thailand like eating rice. The rice is not on the same plate with other food. Each person eats rice on his own plate. Its not necessary to finish all your rice or all your food. 58 If you eat up all the food on your plate, it means you wa nt more. 59 Because the host will ask you two or three times if you want more food. Its the same as drinks. During the meal, never empty your cup or glass. When its less than half full, your host or your neighbor will fill it again. 60 Its polite to fill the glasses for your neighbors. That means you must keep an eye on your neighbors glass during the meal. 从方框中选择合适的选项补全短文。 A. Dont need to worry if your food on the plate is not enough
