Read the following passage and answer the questions below: (2.pts ) In my country, Japan, we usually invite guests home at the weekend, in the early evening, about seven o’clock. Before they come, we must tidy the front garden and clean the sitting room. Then we must spray it all with water to show that we welcome guests with cleanliness. The guests usually bring presents and when they give you the present they say, “I’m sorry this is such a small present,’ but in fact they have chosen the present very carefully. When the meal is ready the hostess says, “we have nothing special for you today but you are welcome to come this way.” You can see that in Japan, you should try to be modest and you should not show off too much. If you don’t understand our culture, you will think this is very strange. Questions: 1. What do the Japanese do before the guests come? 2. What does the underlined word it refer to? 3. How do the guests choose the presents for the hostess? 4. According to the writer, what personality is highly appreciated in Japan?
