Questions 26-30 [3 point for the correct answer]

26. According to the text find the worst mistake for a visitor

"Unwritten Rules" of Great Britain Good and bad manners make up the social rules of a country. They are not always easy to learn because they are often not written down in books. For example, British women did not go into pubs at the beginning of this century because it was not considered respectable behaviour for a woman. Now both women and men drink freely in pubs and women are fully integrated into public life. Visitors to Britain are often surprised by the strange behaviour of the inhabitants. One of the worst mistakes is to get on a bus without waiting your turn in the queue. The other people in the queue will probably complain loudly! Queuing is a national habit and it is considered polite or good manners to wait for your turn.

A) eating in the street at lunch time.

B) complaining loudly in the bus.

C) smoking in public places.

D) entering the bus without waiting

your turn.

E) queuing in the shops.

27. According to the text find the meaning of the word “ban”

In some countries it is considered bad manners to eat in the street, whereas in Britain it is common to see people having a snack whilst walking down the road, especially at lunchtime. Britons may be surprised to see young children in restaurants in the evening because children are not usually taken out to restaurants late at night. In recent years smoking has received a lot of bad publicity, and fewer British people now smoke. Many companies have banned smoking from their offices and canteens. Smoking is now banned on the London Underground, in cinemas and theaters and most buses.
