Each team works for one country: England, China and Japan. You must use the statements on the blackboard and use should or shouldn’t in your sentences.

England

The first thing you should remember when in England is always to say “please” and “thank you”. Never push into a queue of people or they’ll be angry. Don’t be late for appointments and don’t talk with your mouth full. Remember-always ask before smoking in someone’s house.

China

When in China, don’t kiss anyone in public-it’s very rude. Never be late for appointments, and don’t tell jokes to people you don’t know very well. Be careful when you are eating, too-never leave your chopsticks pointing upwards in your rice because this makes people very upset. A last tip-when you give someone a present, give it with both hands.

Japan

In a sushi bar-

You should pass through the curtain putting your hand at an angle of 42э

You should show with your fingers how many people come to eat

You should ask permission to sit next

When you drink beer the cap is removed by a waiter, but you should pour it yourself

You should express thanks to a cook while eating whether the food is delicious or not Cross fingers when you are full and ask for a bill
