GREETING CUSTOMS AROUND THE WORLD
USA: It is normal for men to shake hands when they meet, but it is quite unusual for men to kiss when they greet each other. Greetings are casual-a handshake, a smile and a ''hello'' will do just fine
UK: The British often simply say ''hello'' when they meet friends. They usually shake hands only when they meet for the first time. Social kissing is common in an informal situation between men and women and also between women who know each other very well
FRANCE: The French, including children, shake hands with their friends and often kiss them on both cheeks, both upon meeting and leaving
ARAB countries: In Arab countries, close male friends or colleagues hug and kiss both cheeks. They shake hands with their right hand only, for longer but less firmly than in West. Contact between the opposite genders in public is considered obscene. Do not offer to shake hands with the opposite sex.
HUNGARY: Hungarians like to use the friendly greeting form of kissing each other on the cheeks. The most comon way is to kiss from your right to your left. When men meet for the first time, the casual greeting is a frm handshake
BELGIUM: People kiss on one cheek when they meet, regardless of the gender or how well they know
CHINESE: Chinese people tend to be more conservative. When meeting someone for the first time, they would usually nod their heads and smile, or shake hands if in a formal situation

Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each questions.
Your mind's ability to bring back experiences you have had is your memory. There are two kind of remembering, recall and recognition. For instance, you may not be able to recall the poem you read yesterday in class, but if you see it again, you will know it instantly because you recognise it.
Some few people have "total recall", often spoken of as photographic memory. A person with total recall can recite a whole page of a book he has read only once, or play a musical composition after hearing it once. This is very unusual, however, and most people have difficulty in remembering even the names they heard the day before. This is not because most people lack the ability to remember, but because they had not paid much attention to what they heard. They felt no personal reasons to remember. Having a personal reason for remembering is one of the most important factors in a good memory.
When you have a strong reason for remembering, concentrate as you read or listen, and try to connect the new information to things you already know. A detail is easy to remember when it fits into a whole that make sense. If you understand the entire history lesson before you try to remember any particular dates, your memory may surprise you.

Texting is a new way of exchanging information, and it is becoming more and more popular among the young. In fact, texting is clearly affecting language. There are no rules for it. We are creating a new aspect of vocabulary and opening up a new kind of playful and direct communication. Naturally, texting is fun and that’s fine, but some people are wo
ied about the effects it might have on a child’s ability to read and write. But not everyone is so wo
ied. An expert says, “Every time a new medium comes along it has an effect on language … But this doesn’t destroy the existing language, it adds to it.” In text messages, many words come from shorthand created in email, such as CUS (See you soon) and so on. Someone says, “Mostly they are original, but sometimes you get a clash of meanings. For example, LOL can mean both Laugh Out Loud and Lots of Love. That could lead to some misunderstandings.”
1.There are no rules for texting.
2.Texting is always affecting language in a bad way.
3.Everyone is wo
ied about texting.
4.A child should not write text messages.
