When my wife and I went to live in an Arab country, my friends told us to be prepared for a culture shock(文化差异). Later, we realized that the advice given to us by our friends was correct.
The culture shock started with the weather. Here, the burning sun can cook an egg in a minute! The hot weather made us feel so tired that we were falling asleep at midday!
Another culture shock was the working week. We worked from Saturdays to Wednesdays, including Sundays. It was also strange to see people praying(祷告)in a certain direction! They have strict rules for women. They do not let people see their faces in public. They do not let women drive car either. All dresses worn by women have to cover the body completely. They believe that women cannot be seen in public. At the weekends, we went camping in the desert. I will never forget watching the sun setting over the desert. We also enjoyed riding on the camels.
In the end, we enjoyed living there, but their culture is very different from the American culture.

Do as the Romans Do
The customs in different countries are rather different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host, he always puts more food onto my plates as soon as I have emptied it. That often discomforts me greatly. I have to eat the food even if I don’t want to, because it is considered bad manners in the West to leave one’s food on the plate. I have already noticed that when a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he very often refuses the offer of food or drink though he is in fact still hungry or thirsty. This might be good manners in China, but it is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or insist on his accepting something. Americans have a direct way of speaking. If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, “No, thanks.” When an American is fed with beer by the host, for example, he might say, “No, thanks. I’ll take some diet, Pepsi-Cola（百事可乐）if you have it. ”That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United States, you had better remember the famous saying: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
31. From the passage, we can know that the Chinese are usually ________ to the guests.

A．very hot	B．rude
C．impolite	D．cold
