25、Different countries have different customs. When you are in different countries, you should follow the customs there. In China, you are not supposed to start eating first if there are older people at the table.
Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip (给小费). It is usual to tip waiters, taxi drivers and porters who help carry your bags at a train station, an airport or in a hotel. Waiters expect to get a fifteen percent tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect about the same amount.
In England, you can see people standing in line almost everywhere, at the bus stop, in a bank, in the post office, in the doctor’s waiting room and so on. So when you are in the UK, make sure to wait in a queue even if there are only two of you. It’s a good idea to talk about the weather there. It’s a favorite subject of conversations with the British.
In Spain, it’s a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you for dinner. People have dinner very late, and restaurants do not usually open until 9:00 p. m.
In Saudi Arabia, men kiss one another on the cheek (脸颊). Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite for you to do the same.
In Japan, people usually give personal or business cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card, don’t put it into your pocket soon. The person expects you to read it before you put it away.
Don’t forget to be careful of your body language when you express something in conversations. A kind of body language that is acceptable in one culture may be impolite in another.

26、Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn (打哈欠) and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, obviously it’s because we have mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains.
Put simply, the presence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains model after it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions,they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.
Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains,but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages,and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example: “The hand took hold of the ball”), the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold of a ball).
Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning (行使职责). However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.
Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information about how humans behave, communicate and spend time together. Indeed, it may turn out to be nearly the same important thing for neuroscience as what Einstein’s theory of relativity (相对论) was for physics. And the next time you have the strong feeling to cough in the cinema when someone else does – well, perhaps you’ll understand why.
【1】 Mirror neurons can explain ______.
A. why we cry when we are hurt
B. why we cough when we catch a cold
C. why we smile when we see someone else smile
D. why we yawn when we see someone else get up late

A. set off B. cut off
C. broken out D. found out
【3】We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons _______.
A. relate to human behavior and communication
B. decide our knowledge and language abilities
C. result in bad behavior and social disorders
D. control human actions and appearances
【4】What is the passage mainly about?
A. Ways to find mirror neurons.
B. Problems of mirror neurons.
C. Discovery of mirror neurons.
