SECTION 4. READING
Part 1. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Most people want to be polite and behave well around others. Being polite involves good
manners of eating and appropriate ways of greeting and talking to people, and giving and receiving
gifts. Polite behaviours may differ from culture to culture.
In the United State, people prefer to shake hands firmly for a few seconds. In some Middle
Eastern countries, people hold the person's hand gently for a longer time. What about eye contact?
In some countries you show respect when you look at someone directly in the eye. In other parts of
the world, looking at someone directly can be rude. Another difference is personal space. In North
America, people usually stand about an arm's length apart during a conversation. However, in Latin
America, people stand closer
If you are going to live, work, or study in another country, you should learn about its culture.
In this way, you can be polite and make a good impression. Politeness can be good for making
friends and doing business as well.
