Usually, most women cannot keep a secret for longer than 47 hours, a new study shows. The study found that women like to tell others gossip(閑言碎語) as soon as they hear it. They will tell at least one other person in 47 hours and 15 minutes. They may tell their boyfriend, husband, best friend or mother the information at first.
3,000 women age between 18 and 65 took part in this study. The study found that four out of ten said that they couldn’t keep a secret. It also found that wine usually gave them a help hand to speak out secrets.
Usually English ladies heard three pieces of gossip a week, and they would tell at least one person. Six in ten said they would tell someone who had nothing to do with the secret, so the person about the secret couldn’t know. Three in ten said they had ideas to speak out the secret. Nearly half(45%) of them spoke out the secrets just for losing their pressure. However, two thirds of them said that they felt sorry after they passed on secrets. Three quarters of them said they could keep quiet about a secret. But over a quarter(27%) said they always forgot what they heard the following day.

Before you go to another country it is a great help if you know the language and some of the customs of the country.
When people meet each other for the first time in Britain, they say, “How do you do? ”and shake hands. Usually they do not shake hands when they just meet or say goodbye. But they shake hands after they haven’t met for a long time or when they will be away from each other for a long time.
Last year a group of German students went to England for a holiday. Their teacher told them that the English people hardly shake hands. So when they met their English friends at the station, they kept their hands behind their backs. The English students had learned that the Germans shake hands as often as possible, so they put their hands in front and got ready to shake hands with them. It made both of them laugh.
