35. Section 1 Before You Read Reading strategy: As we read, we need to find “topic sentence”. These sentences usually give us a “summary”, or overall meaning of each paragraph and help us understand what the paragraph is about. After the topic sentence comes more detail and explanation. 阅读时需要找到关键句子。这些通常是一段短文的主要内容，了解关键句子会帮助我们理解整段文章。

36. 但是理解它会是非常有用的． Would you mind keeping your voice down? If you spend some time in an English-speaking country, you might hear the term “etiquette”. It means normal and polite social behavior. This may seem like a difficult word at first, but it can be very useful to understand. Etiquette is not the same in every culture, or 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 people might feel uncomfortable. Even in China, we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations. 术语 礼仪 正式的 社会的 场合，情境 不舒服的 在一些亚洲国家，站得和你谈话的人很近是相当普遍的。

37. 但在其他一些地方，大声说话是不允许的。 Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine, but there are other places where talking loudly is not allowed. For example, most people would agree that talking loudly in a library, a museum, or a movie theater is impolite. Even if you are with your friends, it is better to keep your voice down in public places. In fact, we should also take care not to cough or sneeze loudly in public if possible. If we see someone breaking the rules of etiquette, we may give them some suggestions politely. Perhaps one of the most polite ways is to ask someone, Would you mind doing this or Would you mind not doing that. 即使 允许，许可 当心 if it is possible 打破规则 建议

38. 在你前面插队 For example, if someone cuts in front of you in a line, you could ask them, sorry, would you mind joining the line? If someone is smoking on the bus, we could ask, Excuse me, could you please put out that cigarette? People don’t usually like to be criticized, so we have to be careful how we do this. Although rules of etiquette can often be different, some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world! For example, dropping litter is almost never allowed. If you see someone you know doing this, you can ask them, Would you mind picking it up? 熄灭 香烟 批评 随手丢垃圾 把它捡起来

39. a. We have to be very careful how we criticize people. b. The way people behave is different in different cultures and situations. e. We might want to ask someone to behave more politely c. Sometimes, rules of etiquette are the same almost everywhere. if we see them breaking a rule of etiquette. d. Etiquette is a very important idea to understand. f.
