Imagine you got paid to do shopping,and could keep the things you bought with other people's money. Does this sound like a dream? Well,for some,like Amy Knott,from Chicago,this is their job.
Amy Knott is a mystery shopper. She is paid to visit a store, eat in a restaurant, go to a bank,stay in a hotel, get her hair cut, fill up her gas tank,or see a movie. She pretends to be an ordinary customer,but afterwards she writes a report about her experience,commenting on things like：How long did you wait in line? Was the food hot? Did the cashier say " Thank you.”？Did the restroom have soap and tissue? This gives companies useful information about how they can improve their customer service.
So who can become a mystery shopper? You do not need any special qualifications or experience, but you need a good memory,an eye for detail,and good writing skills. When you apply for the job,instead of an interview,you will be asked to write about some?thing like "What was your best shopping experience?"
What is the pay like? For a 15-minute visit to a store,you might get $ 10 and the cost of what you buy. For a haircut,you might get $ 35 and the cost of the haircut. Most mystery shoppers do this job in their spare time,like Byron Jenner, who visits a restaurant on his lunch break every day and earns about $ 500 extra a month. But others,like Amy,make it their full-time career,and earn up to $ 40,000 a year.
"I love mystery shopping. I can't believe I actually get paid to have fun," she said. "For example,tonight my husband and I will go out,have a $ 150 dinner, go to stay at a luxury hotel, and I'll walk away with $ 300.”

In Englandthree foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop. They studied the information on the post sign and decided which bus to take. About five minutes later the bus they wanted came along. They prepared to get on. Suddenly people rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted insulting remarks about the foreigners. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed. No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus so that the first person who arrived at a bus stop is the first person to get on the bus.
Learning the language of a country isn't enough. If you want to ensure a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor toIndiawould do well to re?member that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, You might see a man ap?parently shaking his head at another and assume(认为) that he is disagreeing. But in many parts of India a rotating(旋转) movement of the head is a gesture that express agreement or accept?ance. Nodding your head when offered a drink inBulgariais likely to leave you thirsty. In that country, you shake your head to express "yes"― a nod means "no".
In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting，talking to someone，even at an important meeting. Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however,could cause offence(冒犯) .It is considered too informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also when in Thailand avoid touching the head of an adult― it's just not done.
Attitudes to women vary considerably around the world. In Japan, for example, it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home.
