People in different countries have different ways of doing things. Something that is polite in one country may be quite impolite in another. In Britain, you mustn’t lift your bowl to your mouth when you are having some liquid (液体) food. But it’s different in China. And in Japan you even needn’t worry about making noises when you have it. It shows that you are enjoying it. But it is regarded as bad manners in Britain. If you are a visitor in Mongolia, what manners do they wish you to have? They wish you to give a loud “burp”(打嗝) after you finish eating, Burping shows that you like the food.
In Britain, you should try not to put your hands on the table when you’re having a meal. In Mexico, however, guests are expected to keep their hands on the table during a meal. But in Arab countries you must be very careful with your hands. You mustn’t eat with your left hand. Arabs consider it very bad manners eating with left hands. So, what should you do if you are on a visit in another country? Well, just do in Rome as the Romans do. You can ask the native (本土的)people to help you or just watch carefully and follow them.

(答案→)B
解析：
【小题1】通过in Japan you even needn’t worry about making noises when you have it.可知，在日本，当你喝东西时，可以出声音。所以本题选B。
【小题2】In Britain, you mustn’t lift your bowl to your mouth when you are having some liquid (液体) food本句的意思是“在英国，当你喝东西时，你一定不要将碗放到嘴边喝。”可知C“用碗直接喝汤.”是不礼貌的。所以本题选C。
【小题3】通过 after you finish eating可知，是吃完饭后，而不是吃饭时，故A是错误的；文中说喝东西时，可以有声音，但没说吃东西时，故B是错误的；通过 it’s different in China.可知，在中国吃东西时，也是有声音的，故C是错误的；通过But in Arab countries you must be very careful with your hands. You mustn’t eat with your left hand可知，本题应该选D。
【小题4】通过People in different countries have different ways of doing things一句和阅读全文，可知，本文主要讲述了不同国家的餐桌礼仪。所以本题选B。
