47、根据以下资料，回答47-66题。 　　Social customs and ways of behaving change．Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable．Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite behaviour for a man to smoke on the street．No man who thought of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smoking when a lady was in a room.
　　Customs are also different from country to country．Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn't it matter? What about table manner? Should you use both hands when you are eating?
　　The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs．For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time．Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans．Promptness is important both in England and in America．That is, if a dinner invitation is for 7 o'clock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.
　　The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable -- especially if they are your guests．There is an old story about a man who gave a dinner party．When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife．The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way．It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable. "Bad manners" in the last sentence means __.
A． ugly
B． dishonest
C． impolite
D． shameful

　　The best reason for choosing to go on holiday to Scotland is: one of the last places inside the crowded and frenetic European Union where it is possible to be alone isolated countryside．This is not to say that Scotland, like everywhere else, does not have its tourist traps, its crowded roads or its popular beauty spots．But it is relatively easy to escape from them.
It would be a mistake to think that Scotland is merely an extension of England.
　　Indeed, no attitude is capable of causing greater offence to the Scots．They successfully resisted English attempts at domination for seven hundred years, and many differences between the two countries persist.

　　At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order．You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.
　　Most cities and towns have no roles about opening and closing times for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars．Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day．
　　Servings in restaurants are often large, too large for many people．If you can't finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a "doggie bag"．It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you are taking food for yourself.
　　Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal．Some people have "Sunday dinner"．This is an especially big noon meal.
