     If you stay in an Indian home, bring something from your home country as a gift. Although it is not
expected, it would be much pleasant. But find out the social position and religion of your hosts before
you choose the gift. A bottle of foreign whisky would be the perfect gift for some, but not at all suitable
for others. If you know the people you are going to stay with, it is a good idea to ask them what they
would like. Some things are just not available in India.
     It is not necessary to bring a gift when you are invited to dinner. After all, you are the honored guest.
Several years ago, it was almost unpleasant to bring sweets or a bottle of wine. But this is not true today.
Nowadays it is a custom which is becoming popular with many Indians. Fruit, flowers or a box of sweets
are perfect gifts, and will make no one unhappy.
     In all classes of society, both in the city and in the country, food is only taken to the mouth with the
right hand. This is the most important part of the etiquette (禮節(jié)) of eating in India. When you watch
Indians eat something, you will see that they keep their left hands on their legs.
     If you want to find a conversation topic in India, talk about families. Another useful subject to start with
is cricket (板球). But once you get to know a person better, any topic is acceptable. Indians love to talk
about politics and religion. They enjoy heated discussions. Conversation is an art form and people take the
time to really talk.
1. If you are invited for a meal at an Indian home, _______.
A. you should offer to pay for the food
B. you will hurt your hosts if you take anything
C. it is fashionable to take flowers or sweets
D. it is traditional to take whisky
2. Indians love interesting topics and they _______.
A. only talk about family matters
B. prefer to'have heated discussions
C. don't like talking about themselves
D. get away from religion and politics
3. The underlined part in the first paragraph means _______.
A. you can buy these things easily in India
B. they don't make these things in India
C. they never avoid these things in India
D. you can't get these things in India
4. According to the passage, all of the following are true except that _______.
A. your choice of gift will depend on who your hosts are
B. playing cricket with left hand is popular in India
C. Indians normally use their right hands for food they eat
D. Indians like to talk about serious things with guests

     Some robots have TV cameras for eyes. Some have special parts that help them touch. Many have
computer brains. How robots look depends on the job they have to do. Some can even have their parts
changed,so they can do different jobs.

the surface and did experiments there.
     Robots can do boring jobs. They can do dangerous jobs with fast-moving machine. They can do dirty
jobs, such as painting things with oil colours. They can do jobs no person could do, such as picking up hot
metal. Robots don't get bored. They don't get tired. They don't mind getting dirty.
     Some people are worried because they think robots will take jobs away from people. But that doesn't have
to happen. After all, people are able to control robots. People must remember that robots are good at some
things and humans are good at others.
     Some robots often tell people they don't have to be afraid of robots. These robots help people understand
that robots can do boring, dangerous and dirty jobs and people can do better ones.
