The terracotta warrior is worth $4.5 million and considered a priceless part of Chinas cultural(遗物). US departments should have made sure of the safety of the relics when they were shown to the public. More than 260 shows have been organized abroad in the past 40 years and such a situation has never happened before, the provincial cultural relics department said. Wang Dongfeng, a cultural relics repair expert, said it takes at least three to five months to repair a terracotta warrior.

When my family moved to America in 2014 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs as well as culture. One of the rules is that young people always respect elders. This rule, unfortunately, led to my very first embarrassment in America.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive Americans are and how they dislike the description old. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village, however, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think growing old is a problem since old shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didnt want to hear.After that, I changed the way I had been with senior citizens. It is not that I dont respect them anymore; I still respect them, but now I dont show my feelings through words.（1）Jack served the food to the couple very fast because _.

He changed his way with older people.（5）According to the passage, which of the following is TURE? A . The more Jack explained, the angrier the couple got.B .
