Dear Anna,

I feel happily to hear that you’re coming to China next week. I hope to see you soon.

Now I am writing to tell you something about Chinese table manner. Usually, sit around the table, all members of a family has meals together at meal time. The elders and distinguished guests are often seated in the special seats, what shows great respect for them. Chopsticks are used instead for knives and forks. It was often the case that the host family use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl. At the end of the meal don't leave any food in my bowl and you'd better to say thanks to the host.

I hope you'll have wonderful time in our country.

Yours,

10 . In Sao Paulo, a baby boy is smiling, unaware that a court is deciding his fate. If it finds in his father's favor, he is in all kinds of trouble. There may be a law in Brazil against giving your child a name that might cause him to be laughed at, but daddy wants to call his son Osama bin Laden. The same father, Osvaldo Oliveria Soares, has a habit of trying to use babies as political statements. Nine years ago, he was banned from naming a previous son Saddam Hussein.

Unlike Brazil, there is no law Britain that constrains a parent's right to name their child. "It's not for the officials to say if someone has picked a name they don't think is suitable," says Alison Cathcart, superintendent official at Westminster register office. "But if someone is from a different culture and wants to register a name that sounds like a swear word in English then we do advise them of that."

"Naming does matter," says Helen Petrie, a professor at the City University of London. "We have fixed beliefs of what sort of people are behind certain names. There are studies of teachers in primary schools in the US that show they rate children with certain names as less capable."

"The name is the first thing we find out when we meet someone. If you call your child an unusual silly name like Fifi Trixibelle, as did Bob Geldof and Paula Yates, it can make life hard for your child — especially if you want him to be smart and are not in the least bit superficial"

There's also the class factor. “Fifty years ago there was no cross-over of names between classes. Now everyone can buy Tatler and see the name Tarquin," says Petrie. "Until the 60s, Tracey was a fashionable Chelsea name. Now it has a terrible image fixed in people's mind. I've interviewed some Traceys who find their name a huge burden. However high up they may be in their profession, people hear their name and think they're the cleaner."

1. The Brazilian court may rule against Osvaldo Olveria Soares if he ______.

A．states that he admires Osama bin Laden	B．gives his son a name that will be laughed at
C．uses his babies as political statements	D．keeps his habit of interfering in politics

2. What does the underlined word “constrain” in the passage most likely mean?

A．abolish	B．acknowledge
C．defend	D．restrict

3. As it is indicated in the third paragraph, the teacher rate some children as less capable because ______.

A．the students do not perform well in class

B．they do not love those children's name

C．they think a name can reveal one' ability

D．they understand the psychology of naming

4. What do we learn about the names?

A．A person named Fifi is usually silly.

B．Paula Yates is a name which sounds superficial.

C．Tatler is a name of low grade.

D．Tracey is still a fashionable Chelsea name.
