They are not really bad guests, but because the guest-host relationship in China is different from that in some western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. And Western hosts sometimes look rude in the eyes of Chinese guests.In China, guests are the most important people. Whenever I enter a Chinese persons home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. But in the west, acting according to the hosts way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wifes mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesnt smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. I usually want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the host are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, Is it Ok if I smoke here? But, dont be surprised if they say, No, you cant smoke. In our culture, if you smoke in their house, you are a bad guest, but if they dont allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.Guests in China also have special habits. Some Western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, dont be too surprised if they dont bring you a gift.In China, you probably wont need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If Western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.（1）The guest-host relationship in China is from that in some Western countries. A . the sameB . differentC . difficultD . easy（2）When a Western guest visits a Chinese family, he often . A . buys some giftsB . feel like he is the most important personC . wants some giftsD . takes a cup of tea（3）If the writers guest want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say? A . Its OK if you smoke here.B . Lets smoke together.C . Sorry, you cant smoke here.D . Smoking is a bad habit.（4）What is the meaning of the underlined phrase adapt to in the passage? A . think back toB . get used toC . look forward toD . keep close to（5）What is the main idea of this passage? A . Foreigners should learn from Chinese.B . Hosts must do things in the guests way.C . Western hosts are always nice to guests.D . People should understand cultural differences.21. （8分）阅读理解 Schools in the UK are cutting time spent on PE lessons because of exam pressures. Secondary school teachers said that older teenagers were especially likely to miss out, because the time spent on physical education for 14-16 -year-olds had fallen in the past five years.Teachers said that increased pressure to produce exam results was leading to children being pulled out of PE lessons. One in three said exam pressures were behind the decline, and they said subjects such as English and Maths had been given more time at the cost of PE. Almost all of the teachers from the 487 schools said PE should be more valued for its advantages to young people. Mental health experts also warned that cutting down on exercise could increase childrens mental health problems. Cal Strode, spokesman for the Mental Health Foundation, said cutting PE time would be short-sighted and dangerous. He said, It is worrying to hear that PE is being cut at a time when students are facing problems with stress and anxiety in increasing numbers. Theres a close relationship between mental and physical health.Tom Madders, director of campaigns at charity Young Minds, said, Schools cutting down on physical education because of exam pressures is worrying. Schools that value health also do better in study, so it makes sense to keep good health, rather than putting children under more pressure.Rising exam stress has been raised as a problem by experts who warn that children are under greater pressure because of a competitive jobs market. Ali Oliver, an expert, said, The PE is good for physical and mental health. So cutting down physical education time is depriving young people of these advantages at a time when they need them most.（1）What do we know about the text? A . Schools that value health do worse in study
