阅读理解

    Most English people have three names: a first name, a middle name and a family name. Their family names come last. For example, my full name is Jim Allan Green. Green is my family name. My parents gave me both of my other names.

    le don't use their middle name very much. So "John Henry Brown" is usually called "John Brown". People never use Mr., Mrs. or Miss before their first names. So, you can say John Brown; but you should never say Mr. John. They use Mr., Mrs. or Miss with the family name but never with the first name.

    Some people ask me about my name. "Why do your parents call you Jim? Why do they choose(择)hat name for you?" The answer is they don't call me Jim. They call me James. James is the name of my grandfather.

    In England, people usually call me Jim for short. That's because it is shorter and easier than James.

举一反三
Social customs (习俗) and ways of behaving change all the time. Things that were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered to be impolite behavior 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 the room.
Customs also differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn't matter? What about table manners (行为)?
The Americans and British people 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 seats to women, and so will most Americans. Promptness (准时) is important both in England and in America. That is, the dinner guest (客人) either arrive close to the time that has been made or calls up to explain his delay (耽误).
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 very formal dinner party. When the food was served (服务), one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or greatly surprised, 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.
