听下面一段独白，回答第10至第12三个小题。

M:Good afternoon, everyone. You are now listening to the English Culture Radio. We know different countries have different manners. Here are some examples：If you visit a Chinese family, you should knock at the door first. When the door opens, you should not go in before the host says "Come in, please." Before coming into the house in Japan, it is good for you to take off your shoes. In England, a guest always finishes the drink or food to show that he enjoys it. This will make the host very pleased. You are welcome to listen to our program at the same time tomorrow, goodbye!

第三节

  听下面一篇短文。按照你所听内容的先后顺序将下列图片排序。短文读两遍。

W: Hello, boys and girls. Welcome to China! Now let me tell you some Chinese table manners. First, if you are hosting a dinner, the elder or the guest must be seated at the end of the table first, facing the door. Second, don’t talk to people while eating. It’s impolite to talk with your mouth full during a meal. Third, it’s impolite to stick chopsticks in the rice bowl. You should put them on your bowl instead. It’s also impolite to point at others with chopsticks. Finally, don’t eat fish first. Only the oldest at the table can eat it first. It’s impolite to turn fish over. People in China think turning fish over can bring bad luck. If you can’t remember these rules, just do as other people do. I hope you can have a good time in China
