In the eyes of many foreigners，Chinese are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world. They’re not really bad guests，but because the guesthost relationship in China is much different from that in some western countries，it appears they are not nice guests. And western guests sometimes look rude (粗鲁的) in the eyes of Chinese hosts.
In China，guests are treated almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home，there is always fruit on the table for me，and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west，generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.
My wife's mother，a very kind elderly Chinese lady，doesn't smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house，as a nonsmoker，I feel unhappy. Usually I 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 America homes，if you are a guest，and the hosts are not smokers，you should not smoke in their house. At the very least，you could ask，“Is it OK if I smoke？” But，don't be surprised if they say，“No，you can't smoke.” In our culture，if you smoke in their home，you are a bad guest，but if they don't 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 home, don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.
In China, you probably won't need to change the guesthost 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.What do many foreigners think of the Chinese hosts?
A. They are the worst in the world.
B. They are the best in the world.
C. They are the most natural in the world.
D. They are the most difficult in the world.
2.How does a westerner feel when he visits a Chinese family?
A. He feels like buying some fruit.
B. He feels like some gifts.
C. He feels like he is a god.
D. He feels like taking a cup of tea.
3.If the writer’s guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?
A. It's OK if you smoke here. B. Let's smoke together.
C. Smoking is a bad habit. D. Sorry, you can't smoke here.
4.What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?
A. 回想 B. 维持 C. 眺望 D. 习惯
5.What is the main idea of this passage?
A. People should understand cultural differences.
B. Hosts must do things in the guest's way.
C. Western hosts are always nice to guests.
D. Foreigners should learn from Chinese.
