Пересказ текста :I study at the International School now. In my class there are a lot of students from different countries.

Now I know a lot of things about how people in different

countries live.

When people visit a foreign country, they don’t

often think about what they can and what they can’t

do there. But it’s very important, because differences

in culture very often can become the reason for problems if you

don’t know about them.

For example, people in many countries often give

flowers as a present for different events, like birthday,

dating, weddings and many others. But be careful!

Some flowers are not a good present. In Russia and

Kyrgyzstan, carnations are the symbol of Victory Day.

In Germany and Italy people never present carnations,

because they are the symbol of death there.

Tourists in Germany sometimes make another

mistake when they use a knife for eating boiled potatoes.

Germans think that you don’t like their cooking and

think that potatoes are not well-cooked.

Spitting is usually a bad habit in most countries.

But in African tribe Maasi people always spit on their

hands before they shake hands with other people. They

often spit on children because they wish them health

and good luck!

In many countries showing tongue is not very polite

and people hardly ever do it in public places. In India

people usually show their tongue when they are angry.

People are so different!​
