In Western culture, an engagement begins with "yes" to a simple question: "Will you marry

me?" These heart-stopping words often come with a beautiful diamond ring. The man making the proposal may get down on one knee. In fact, men have relied on this simple, romantic method of proposing marriage for years. Today, this is no longer true for everyone. Consider how Justin Firestone proposed to Natalie Abreu. The couple took a helicopter tour over the black sands of Honomanu Bay, Hawaii. Suddenly Abreu saw "Will you marry me Natalie?" spelled out below with coconuts. Her answer was an astonished " Yes!" Firestone s proposal took weeks of planning and help from a professional. But for men like him, the effort put into the proposal was worth it. Many guys want to show how serious they are about marriage through an impressive proposal. Some even want to give their future brides something to brag about. Public proposals—at sports games, concerts and other events—are common. But some men don t settle for their proposal scrolling (滚动)across a big screen before thousands. Millions saw Joe Uva s proposal on a reality TV show. His girlfriend, Laura O Donnell, walked into an office and saw friends and family holding flowers. With the cameras rolling, Uva walked out from among them to propose. 0 Donnell said yes, to the relief of Uva and his audience. Other men have chosen proposals that reflect the couple s unique relationship. Such proposals take place at a favorite restaurant or involve a shared hobby. Bernie Peng, for example, programs video games, and Tammy Li enjoys playing them. When Peng proposed to Li, he made a small change in her favorite game. When she played it, a ring and marriage proposal appeared. They recently got married! These men were confident they would get the answer they wanted. But that s not the point: Creative proposals leave memories to be cherished.

What will men do in a traditional proposal?

A.Use beautiful words.

B.Buy diamonds in advance.

C.Plan it for months.

D.Save a lot of money.

Contrary to its rather negative reputation in the West, pigs in Chinese culture are a sign
of kindness and generosity. Pigs care a great deal about friends and family and work hard to keep everyone in their life happy. Chinese people view the pig as a smart and prosperous animal. Western ideas tend to be a little more negative.

When talking to a Westerner, however, you have to be a little careful when you talk about pigs. A pig in the West is seen as a dirty, lazy, and fat animal. If anyone ever called you a pig, you wouldn't be smiling. When a person doesn't like someone, sometimes he will call that person a pig.

If you ever meet a Westerner who was born in the year of the pig, don't say, "Oh, you're a pig!" Most Westerners will be quite understanding. They will be sure that you made some kind of a mistake. However, don't take any chances. You might just offend someone who does not share your positive ideas about pigs.

You have to be careful when you talk to a Westerner about pigs because______.

A.they worship pigs best of all

B.they consider pigs as bad animals

C.they aren’t used to talking about pigs

D.they don't like the topic about pigs at all

The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English "You speak very good
English." But the student answered, "No, no. My English is very poor." the foreigner was quite surprised at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, "Yes indeed, you speak English very well." But the Chinese student still kept saying "No. "In the end the foreigner gave up and was at a loss what to say. What's wrong with the student's answer? It is because he did not accept a compliment<赞美的话>as the English people do. He should have said "Thank you" instead of "no". He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If he said "Thank you", that would mean he was too proud. According to the western culture, if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say "Thank you". If someone says to a woman "You look so beautiful with the new clothes on", she should be very happy and answer "Thank you". In our country we think being modest is a virtue and showing off a bad thing. But in the west, if you are modest and say" No, I'm afraid I can't do it well", then the others will take it for granted that you really cannot do it. If you often say "no", you will certainly be looked down upon by others. If asking for a job, one says something like "Let me have a try on the job" instead of "Yes, I can certainly do it," he or she will never expect to get it. So in the west one should always be confident. Without self-confidence, he cannot go anywhere. Confidence is of great importance to one in a country where competition is quite keen.

Why was the American surprised at the Chinese student's answer?

A.Because he wondered whether the student could really speak good English.

B.Because he could hardly hear what the student had said.

C.Because he wouldn't like others to say "No".

D.Because the way to accept a compliment in China is not the same as that in the western countries.
