Question II: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your

Passage 1 (2p):
The rules of etiquette in American restaurants depend upon a number of factors: the physical
location of the restaurant, e.g., rural or urban; the type of restaurant, e.g., informal or formal; and
certain standards that are more universal. In other words, some standards of etiquette vary
significantly while other standards apply almost anywhere. Learning the proper etiquette in a
particular type of restaurant in a particular area may sometimes require instruction, but more
commonly it simply requires sensitivity and experience. For example, while it is acceptable to
read a magazine in a coffee shop, it is inappropriate to do the same in a more luxurious setting.
And, if you are eating in a very rustic setting it may be fine to tuck your napkin into your shirt,
but if you are in a sophisticated urban restaurant this behavior would demonstrate a lack of
manners. It is safe to say, however, that in virtually every restaurant it is unacceptable to
indiscriminately throw your food on the floor. The conclusion we can most likely draw from the
above is that while the types and locations of restaurants determine etiquette appropriate to them,
some rules apply to all restaurants.
1. With what topic is this passage primarily concerned?
A. Rules of etiquette B. Instruction in proper etiquette
C. The importance of good manners D. Variable and universal standards of etiquette
2. According to the passage, which of the following is a universal rule of etiquette?
A. tucking a napkin in your shirt B. not throwing food on the floor
C. reading a magazine at a coffee shop D. eating in rustic settings
3. According to the passage, ________ requires sensitivity and experience.
A. learning the proper etiquette B. asking for instructions
C. knowing the type of restaurant D. knowing about an area
