阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的四个选项中,选出可填入空白处的最佳选项.

  Have you heard of the term“etiquette” And do you know that etiquette is not only a useful word   1   very useful to understand? Etiquette is not the same in every culture   2   in every situation.For example, standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries.However; if you do this in Europe, some   3   people might feel   4  .Even in China, we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations.Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine, but there are other places where talking loudly is   5  .For example, most people would agree that talking loudly in a library, a museum, or a movie theater is   6  .Even if you are with your friends, it is better to keep your voice   7   in public places.In fact, we should also   8   not to cough or sneeze loudly in public.
