Answer 1

分析 本文主要向我们介绍了不同的国家有不同的习俗，当你在不同的国家时，你应该遵守他们的风俗习惯．下文具体介绍了六个国家的习俗：中国，美国，英国，西班牙，沙特阿拉伯，日本．

解答 61 C 细节理解题．文中提到China，the United States，England，Spain，Saudi Arabia，Japan一共六个国家．故选C．
62 A 词义猜测题．根据第三段It is usual to tip waiters，taxi drivers and porters who help carry your bags．给服务员、出租车司机和帮你搬袋子的porter小费是通常的事情．可以推测出是帮着搬东西的搬运工．故选A．
63 B 推理判断题．由第三段的"Waiters expect to get a 15% tip on the cost of your meal．Taxi drivers expect about the same amount．"可知，美国服务员和出租车司机者的小费是你花费的15%．（200+320）×15%=78，故答案是B．
64 C 推理判断题．根据第二段的"And you′re not supposed to start eating first if there are older people at thetable．"而且如果桌上有老人，你不得先开始吃．可知答案C是正确的．故选C．其余三项均不符合文章的意思．
65 D 主旨推断题．根据第一段Different countries have different customs．When you are in different countries，you should follow their customs．不同的国家有不同的习俗，当你在不同的国家时，你应该遵守他们的风俗习惯．下文具体介绍了六个国家的习俗：中国，美国，英国，西班牙，沙特阿拉伯，日本．故答案是D．
