April Fool’s Day is a celebration that takes place in different countries around the world.
One April Fool’s Day, a reporter in England announced that there would be no more spaghetti because the spaghetti farmers in Italy had stopped growing spaghetti. Many people ran to their local supermarkets to buy as much spaghetti as they could. By the time people realized that the story was a hoax, all of the spaghetti across the country had been sold out. In another famous trick a TV show in England reported the discovery of special water. They said this water would help people lose weight and that one customer had already lost a lot of weight in just four months. By the end of the day, more than 10,000 people had phoned the TV station to find out how to get this water.
One of the world’s most famous tricks, however, happened in October rather than in April. In that month in 1938, actor Orson Welles announced on his radio program that aliens from Mars had landed on the earth. He described where they had landed and told how they were moving across the United States. Welles made it sound so real that hundreds of people believed the story, and fear spread across the whole country. By the time police officers announced that the story was a hoax, thousands of people had left their homes.

Certain things you do at one place are totally OK and understood. When you do the same thing in another place, it might be misunderstood. Here are some rules you should know when you are in Finland (芬兰).
To start with, Finns pay much attention to personal space. When waiting in line, they keep one meter or more from each other. If you are standing too close to someone, you will notice that the other person is trying to get a bit further from you.
Second, do not make eye contact (接触) with Finns. For them, eye contact is not very common, even when talking to friends and family. It might be a sign of rudeness (粗鲁) in other cultures not to look each other in the eyes when talking. In Finland it’s just the opposite.
Also, touching strangers in Finland is not allowed. They might feel uncomfortable. For most Finns, physical contact while talking even among friends is not common. They do not give kisses on the cheek (脸颊) when greeting each other. Mostly the greeting is saying hi or shaking hands.
Finns do not talk about their salaries (薪水). It is impolite to ask even friends about how much they earn. It is simply considered part of their personal space. What’s more, nobody talks about each other’s appearance (外貌) or clothes unless someone asks for an opinion.
Because of all these, Finns are often considered unfriendly. Anyway, as the saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”
66. In Finland you’re not supposed to .
A. wait in a line B. say hi to someone
C. shake hands with someone D. stand too close to someone
67. In Finland it’s to look each other in the eyes when talking.
A. polite B. impolite C. friendly D. unfair
68. In Finland when friends meet, they greet each other by
A. bowing B. hugging C. shaking hands D. kissing the cheek
69. In Finland it might be polite to talk about .
A. weather B. clothes C. salaries D. appearance

A. Things to Do in Finland B. Places to Visit in Finland
