Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question. While you may not think it at first, there are numerous cultural differences between the US and the UK that you will likely encounter. In general, Americans are much more open than Britons. Friends and even acquaintances discuss personal thoughts and opinions that might seem private in the UK. Do not feel embarrassed if an American asks you a seemingly private question. He or she is most likely sincerely curious about your thoughts and feelings and is assuming you would like to share them. You may learn more about your American friends than you wanted to know, or you may hear more childhood stories than you care to listen to. Americans will be interested in your experiences and background as well since your upbringing may differ greatly from theirs. In addition to more frequent discussion about their personal lives, there is often a greater display of photographs, and posters in dorm rooms or office spaces. The sense of humour differs from one side of the Atlantic to the other. Americans tend to be less dry or sarcastic. Some Americans may feel offended if they do not understand your humour, but after a brief explanation they will be laughing along with you. Americans tend to believe that individuals control their circumstances by how much they work. This work ethic is reflected in American attitudes towards academics. Don’t be surprised if you meet students who spend a vast majority of their free time studying in the library. Americans also tend to care much more for punctuality than their UK counterparts. Everything from classes to a lunch date is expected to start right on time. Along with punctuality, most Americans move at a faster pace than that in the UK. For example, dinners at a restaurant, even a sit-down restaurant, can be finished in under a half-hour. Additionally, you will not have to ask for the bill. It will be brought to you as soon as it is clear to your waiter or waitress that you are finished ordering more items. 36. Americans are more willing to share private matters with you because . A.they would like to ask private questions about others B.they are more open and more curious about things around them C.they try to be more open than Britons in life D.they assume you would like to share everything with them 37. One of the reasons why Americans are interested in your experiences and background is that . A.they would like to tell their childhood stories more than you care to listen to B.they would like to show you their photographs, and posters C.they would like to know about a different upbringing than theirs D.they would like to talk more about their personal lives than anything else 38. The American attitudes toward work or study are that . A.they spend their free time studying anywhere B.individuals should control their behaviours and free time C.they move at a faster pace than in the UK D.they attach more importance to the load of work 39. All of the following about Americans are right EXCEPT . A.most Americans walk faster than those in the UK B.they tend to be more punctual than Britons C.their sense of humour is different than that of Britons D.they’ll be laughing with you if they understand your humour 40. When you come to a restaurant in America, . A.you have to finish dinner in less than half an hour and ask for the bill B.the waiter may bring the bill to you just when you finish ordering dishes C.you should care much more for punctuality than in Britain D.you should show the waiter that you finish ordering in under a half-hour VII.
