三、阅读短文,根据短文内容,完成下列各题。
Last summer, Zhang Hua was really excited to go to London for a short-term study program. He always dreamt of seeing the Big Ben and experiencing life in a foreign country. But there were many interesting cultural differences waiting for him.
One sunny day, Zhang Hua went to a store to buy fruit. He picked up an apple and asked the shopkeeper for its price. The shopkeeper replied, "It's a pound, love." Zhang Hua was a bit surprised. In China, "love" is usually only used between close friends or family members. He thought the shopkeeper might be laughing at him. So he just said "OK" and left. The shopkeeper felt confused about Zhang Hua's strange face.
Another time, Zhang Hua was invited to a British classmate's home for dinner. In China, it's polite to bring a small gift and be on time, so Zhang Hua did just that. But when he gave the gift to his classmate, the British boy opened it right away in front of him. However, it's not common in China. Zhang Hua was a little surprised by the behaviour.
After these experiences, Zhang Hua realized that different countries have different ways of communication and social customs. He decided to learn more about British culture. He read books about British customs, talked with local people, and watched British movies. By the end of his study program, he could communicate with the local people more smoothly and made many good friends.
21. Why didn't Zhang Hua reply to the shopkeeper warmly?
22. What did the British boy do after receiving the gift?
