Mr. Phanourakis was 85 when he said goodbye to his Greek mountain village and took an American ship for the United States.His sons have done well in business there and wanted him to spend his remaining years with them.The old gentleman knew no language except his own but, with the self-confidence of the Greek mountain villager, he made his way easily about the foreign ship. When the bell announced the serving of lunch on his first day on board，he found the number of his table on the passenger-list outside the dining room and went straight to it while most of the others waited for the chief steward to tell them where to sit.It was a small table for two. Mr. Phanourakis sat down. After a few moments his table companion arrived. “Bon appetit, m?sieur,” he murmured politely, as he took the other chair.“Phanourakis,” he said, carefully spacing out the Greek syllables.During the afternoon, one of the ship?s officers, who spoke some Greek, asked the old gentleman if he had found any acquaintances on board.Mr. Phanourakis shook his head. “No,” he said,“the only person I?ve met so far is my table companion. He must be French. His nam e is Bonappetit―or something like that.”“That is not his name,”said the officer.“It is a French expression that means…Good appetite'”.At dinner time he found the Frenchman already at the table.

Different countries and different races have different manners. Before entering a house in some Asian countries, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries even though shoes sometimes become very muddy, this is not done.A guest in a Chinese house sometimes does not finish a drink.He leaves a little, to show that he has had enough. In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a little food. In England, a guest always finishes a drink to show that he enjoys it.We should like to find out the customs of other races, so that they will not think us ill-mannered(举止粗鲁). But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helping others, especially those older or weaker than ourselves. If you remember this, you will not go very far wrong.Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered person does or does not do.He never laughs at people when they are in trouble. He is always kind either to people or animals. When people are waiting for a bus, or in a post office he lines up to wait his turn. In the bus, he gives his seat to an older person or a lady who is standing. If he accidently bumps into(碰，撞)someone, or gets in their way, he says “Excuse me”or “I’m sorry”. He says “Please”when making a request, and “Thank you”when he receives 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. He does not talk too much about himself. When eating, he does not speak with his mouth full of food.1、According to the passage, the knowledge of the customs of other races .A、is very usefulB、is unnecessaryC、is unimportantD、does not mean much2、A person with good manners thinks of .A、others before himselfB、himself before othersC、no one but himselfD、others as well as himself3、Which of the following is not true?

But it is useless to try to discourage someone who feels that he must act, although the chances of his becoming famous are slim. The normal way to begin is to go to a drama school. Usually only students who show promise and talent are accepted, and the course lasts two years. Then the young actor or actress takes up work with a theatrical company, usually as an assistant stage manager. This means doingeverything that there is to do in the theatre: painting scenery, publicity(宣传), taking care of the costumes, and even acting in very small parts. It is very hard work indeed, the hours are long and the salary is tiny.Of course, some people have remarkable chances which lead to fame and success without this long and hard training.

He stopped and gotout to speak to the girl. He asked if she would like to go to the film studio to do a test, and she thought he was joking. Then she got angry and said she would call the police. It took the producer twenty minutes to convince Connie that he was serious. The test was successful. And within a few weeks she was playing the leading part opposite one of the most famous actors of the day.
