In the eyes of many foreigners , Chinese are the best hosts(主人)and the worst guests in the world. They’re not really bad guests , but because the guest-host relationship in China is much different than 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 guests.
In China , guests are 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 non-smoker , 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 American 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 guest-host 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.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, is famous for its biking culture. Its people have biked to work since the 1880s. And recently, it has shown again that it is one of the world’s great biking cities.
For the first time, there are more bikes than cars in the heart of the city, reported The Guardian. It has found 13,100 more bikes than cars in the city center over the past year. In the last 20 years, the number of bikes used has risen by 68 percent.
This is mainly because of the huge efforts(努力)that the local government have made to create a bike city. Since 2005, a large amount of money has been spent on biking, and the city now has several new bridges only for biking and walking.
Bikes are also becoming more and more popular in China. An increasing number of people are cycling instead of driving to school, to their workplace or to tourist attractions. Public bike rental(出租)services have also been introduced in many cities, including Beijing, Hangzhou and Changchun.
The introduction of Mobike, a new public bike rental system-which started in Shanghai in April and came to Beijing on Sept 1-brought the use of bikes to a whole new level. After Scanning(扫描)the QR code(二维码)on the bike, you can ride the Mobike’s orange bikes to your destination. It is far more convenient than the old bike rental system. New payment methods such as Alipay and WeChat are also supported by the service.
Despite this, it’s still not easy to ride bikes in Chinese cities. Because cars usually take up bicycle lanes(车道),bikers often have to ride next to cars. However, Copenhagen is much friendlier to bikes. Lanes are built to encourage cycling. Traffic lights are timed for bicycle speeds.
For example, Cycle Snake, a high orange bike lane, allows fast bikers to go in both directions. In the mid-afternoon during the summer, bikers can see the daylight between two nearby buildings. It makes riding a bike even more enjoyable.
