Passage I
What Are Good Manners3?
I. Tapescript
People in different countries have different standards for good manners. Before entering a house in some Asian countries it is necessary to take off one's shoes. In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very muddy4, this is not done. A guest in a Chinese house never finishes a drink. He leaves a little to show that he has had enough. In a Malay house, a guest always leaves a little food. In England, a guest always finishes a drink or eats up his food to show that he has enjoyed it.
Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered person does or does not do no matter whether he is an oriental5 or a westerner6,
He never laughs at people when they are in trouble. Instead, he tries to help them. He is always kind whether to people or to animals. When he is waiting for a bus, he takes his turn and never pushes to the front of the line. In the bus, he gives his seat to an old person, or a disabled person, or a lady who is standing7. When talking to people, he never tells heavy people they are fat, but says that they are losing weight for he knows everyone is diet con- scious and wants to be thin. He never asks people, women in particular, their age. Everyone wants to be young. If he is invited to a dinner party at seven, he is sure to be there by seven, knowing how people respect time and expect everyone to be 'on time' If he smokes, he never lights his cigarette before getting the permission from people around him.
He says 'Please' when making a request and 'Thank you' when he re- ceives something. He stands up when speaking to a lady or an older person, and he does not sit down until the other person is seated.
Passage 2
Tea Ceremony in Japan
I. Tapescript
The tea ceremony in Japan, or Cha-No-Yu, is a special form of entertainment for distinguished8 guests. The tradition started in the fifteenth century and has existed for about six hundred years, and it has very special and strict rules that must be followed.
There are many different kinds of tea ceremonies, from the informal9 to the quite formal. But all Cha-No-Yu ceremonies have one thing in common, that is, guests are invited to enjoy a moment of peace and calm.
Traditionally10 the Cha-No-Yu takes place in a tea room which is usually not very big. The guests take off their street shoes and put on special bamboo shoes. Then they cross a beautiful garden. They stop for a moment at a rock water basin11, where they wash their hands. Then they enter the tea room through a small low door.
The inside of the tea room is very simple but very beautiful. The room is not furnished12 at all and the floor is covered with a kind of bamboo mats13 which are called 'tatami'. There are flowers and some traditional decorations like porcelain14 tea sets of ancient times, landscape paintings, calligraphy15, national costumes16, etc. The guests sit in the traditional way, on their knees on the floor. In formal tea ceremonies, small cakes are also served. The tea master, a man or a woman, follows a certain procedure17 in making the tea and then serves it to the guests in turn, starting from the most distinguished. The guests are not supposed to drink the tea at one go. They should sip18 it bit by bit and at the same time appreciate the designs of the bowl and the dish. From time to time the host and the guests would bow to each other. When the guests finally leave the tea room, put on their shoes and leave the house, they feel happy and peaceful.

PART C
Passage 1
My wife and I spent two weeks in London last year. We went there in autumn. We think it is the best season to visit England. The weather is usually quite pleas- ant and there aren't too many tourists in October.
We stayed in a small hotel in the West End. It was convenient24 as we did most of our sightseeing on foot. Taxis were too expensive; the bus routes25 were too difficult for us to understand; and my wife didn't like travelling by underground. She said it made her feel shut in.
We went to look at the places which all tourists see. We saw Buckingham Palace, the National Gallery and Piccadilly Circus. We went shopping in Oxford26 Street and spent too much money. What we liked most, though, was going to the theatre. We don't have the chance to see such wonderful plays at home. A lot of people say English food is very bad. We didn't think so. It's true that most of the restaurants are French or Italian or Chinese, but we had some very good meals.
In fact, we enjoyed our holiday so much that we have booked another trip to England for this year. We're going to take our umbrellas, though. I'm sure we'll need them.
Passage 2
Miss Richards was a teacher at a school for boys and girls. She taught chemistry and physics from the lowest to the highest classes in the school. Sometimes the new classes learnt rapidly27, but sometimes they were very slow; and then Miss Richards had to repeat the things many times.
One year, the first class had been studying chemistry for several weeks when Miss Richards suddenly asked, 'What is water? Who knows? Hold up your hind28. '
There was silence for a few seconds, and Miss Richards felt sad but then one boy raised his hand.
'Yes, Dick?' said Miss Richards encouragingly. He was not one of the brightest students in the class, so she was glad that this boy could answer.
'Water is a liquid which has no color until you wash your hands in it, then it turns black,' the boy replied with great confidence29.
Passage 3
Hello, I was once an airline hostess. Now I'm on my first bus trip and I'm quite amazed30 at the services offered during the trip. Included are meals on the way, rest rooms, public-address announcements and a uniformed hostess. Just now I introduced myself to the hostess on the bus, and we compared experience on air and ground travel.
At lunch time, she gave out menus offering31 a choice of sandwiches. As she began filling orders, she found that there weren't enough egg-salad sandwiches. She quickly went to whisper32 to the driver. The bus soon stopped. The hostess dashed33 to another similar bus that was all the time following ours, and soon she returned with a box of egg-salad sandwiches. As she passed my seat, she asked, 'Could you do that on a plane?'
