Speaking to strangers was
2、 not encouraged. People were most hospitable(好客的)and friendly.However, I have been lucky enough to spend some time in both Italy and the US, where I found traditions of hospitality and politeness to be very different.I experienced Italian hospitality first-hand on a crowded railway carriage travelli
3、ng, one afternoon, from Genoa to Florence. Sinking gratefully into an empty seat, I was scolded in rapid Italian by a gentleman who was returning to this seat - it had not been “spare” after all. I apologized in English, and got up to allow him back into the seat. The gentleman obviously had no unde
4、rstanding of the English language, but he, too, realized my genuine mistake. He smiled and gestured for me to remain in the seat, and he himself remained standing in the corridor for the remainder of the journey. The other occupants of the carriage smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welc
5、ome amongst them. I feel that if this had been in England, a foreigner who made a mistake would not always be so kindly treated.Transport also featured in the differences I noticed between English and American culture. I flew to New York on a plane with mainly English passengers. We sat together in
6、near silence. Nobody spoke to me nor, as I expected, to anyone else they did not know. They felt it was not polite to intrude on someone elses privacy. However, when I travelled across the United States, whether by plane or Greyhound bus, I was never short of conversation. Conversation was going on
7、all around me and whoever sat next to me was happy to introduce themselves and ask me about myself. They obviously felt it would have been rude not to speak to another person, whether they were strangers or not.1. What do we know about the occupants when the author was travelling in Italy?A.

8、re all on the side of the gentleman.B. They all laughed at the author for his mistake.C. They would not bear a mistake like the authors in public.D.

10、ent Ways of Hospitality and PolitenessB. My Unforgettable Travelling Experience Abroad来源:Zxxk.ComC. Co-understanding Each OtherD. The Importance of PrivacyBThe sharing economy, represented by companies like Airbnb or Uber, is the latest fashion craze. But many supporters have overlooked the reality
11、that this new business model is largely based on escaping regulations and breaking the law.Airbnb is an Internet-based service that allows people to rent out spare rooms to strangers for short stays. Uber is an Internet taxi service that allows thousands of people to answer ride requests with their
12、own cars. There are hundreds of other such services.The good thing about the sharing economy is that it promotes the use of underused resources. Millions of people have houses or apartments with empty rooms, and Airbnb allows them to profit from these rooms while allowing guests a place to stay at p
13、rices that are often far less than those charged by hotels. Uber offers prices that are competitive with standard taxi prices and their drivers are often much quicker and more trustworthy.But the downside of the sharing economy has gotten much less attention. Most cities and states both tax and regu
14、late hotels, and the tourists who stay in hotels are usually an important source of tax income. But many of Airbnbs customers are not paying the taxes required under the law.Airbnb can also raise issues of safety for its customers and trouble for hosts neighbors. Hotels are regularly inspected to en
15、sure that they are not fire traps and that they dont form other risks for visitors. Airbnb hosts face no such inspections.Since Airbnb is allowing people to escape taxes and regulations, the company is simply promoting thefts. Others in the economy will lose by bearing an additional tax burden or be
16、ing forced to live next to an apartment unit with a never-ending series of noisy visitors.The same story may apply with Uber. Uber is currently in disputes over whether its cars meet the safety and insurance requirements imposed on standard taxis. Also, if Uber and related services flood the market,
