  Some British and American people like to invite friends for a meal at home.You should not be upset if your English friends don’t invite you home.It doesn’t mean they don’t like you!

  Dinner parties usually start between 7 p. m. and 8 p. m. and end at about 11 p. m.Ask your host(主人)what time you should arrive.It’s polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a gift.

  Do you want to show that you are polite? Then you can say how much you like the room, or the pictures on the wall.But remember-it’s not polite to ask how much things cost.

  In many families, the husband sits at one end of the table and the wife sits at the other side.They eat with their guests.

  You’ll probably start the meal with soup or something small, then you’ll have meat or fish with vegetables, and then dessert(甜點(diǎn)心), followed by coffee.It’s polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want.

  Whether you enjoy the evening or not, you should call your hosts the next day, or write them a short “Thank you” letter.British and American people like to say “Thank you, thank you, thank you” all the time!

Dear Jose,

  

  You have asked me for suggestions on how to get along in the United States. It is difficult to give advice, but I have found the following“dos”and“don'ts”helpful.

  

  As a __1__, it isn't easy to find anyone to ___2___ in a big city. However, here are some suggestions. First get or borrow ___3___ ! Walk him several times a day !Americans love dogs and usually stop ___4____ to anyone with a dog. Then, try to eat in a cafeteria(食堂). People generally ___5___ the same tables and will sometimes talk to you ___6___ they see that you are a (an)___7____. Next, take your dirty clothes to a laundry(洗衣店)!It takes about an hour to wash and dry, and many people ____8___ there. They often pass the ___9____ talking to the other customers.____10____ ask for information from a woman, if you are a ____11___ ; and from a man, if you are a woman !It seems to get ___12____ results for a reason I can't understand. Learn the____13____“Please”,“Thank you”, and “You're welcome” before you come and use them all the time! They usually work like magic(魔術(shù)).

  

  There are some things you shouldn't. Don't tell the truth when people ___14____“How are you?” They only ____15___ the answer to be “Fine”. Never ask people their ___16_____ -- especially women! Everyone wants to be young. Don't tell heavy people they are ____17___. Tell them they are losing ____18___. Everyone here wants to be ___19____. Don't be late for appointment! When someone says six o'clock, ____20___ be there by six. Americans respect time and expect everyone to be “on time”.

  

  Above all, don't worry ! Just follow my advice and bring a 1ot of money and you will get along. I hope I have been of some help to you.

What actually happens when we read? Some people think that we read one word   1   ,

understand it and then go on to the next. Other people think that our eyes smoothly   2   over each line from left to right, then back to the beginning of the    3    line, and so on. In fact, the physical action of reading usually doesn’t work in    4    of those ways.

   5    you do this experiment with a friend. Get hold of a book with a large page

  6   and with lines that go right   7    the page.    8    your friend to    9    the book up and to read it with the top of the book just    10     his eyes level. This   11    that you can watch the movement of his eyes as he read the page.   12    you do this, you will see that your friend’s eyes do not make a continuous forward sweep.   13    they progress(前移) by little “jumps”, moving, then stopping, as they progress along the line.

   14    to be this starting and stopping movement    15    the eye can see only when it is not moving. Every time the eye    16     it sees a phrase or even a sentence, then jumps to the next part of the line, and so on.

There is another interesting fact about eye movement. You will notice that,    17    , the reader goes back and looks again at something he    18     before, in other words, he returns to an earlier part of the text probably because he    19    he is not understanding it properly. Then he comes back to    20     he stopped and continues reading.

閱讀下面短文,掌握其大意,然后從各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng).

Dear Jose,

  

  You have asked me for suggestions on how to get along in the United States. It is difficult to give advice, but I have found the following“dos”and“don'ts”helpful.

  

  As a __1__, it isn't easy to find anyone to ___2___ in a big city. However, here are some suggestions. First get or borrow ___3___ ! Walk him several times a day !Americans love dogs and usually stop ___4____ to anyone with a dog. Then, try to eat in a cafeteria(食堂). People generally ___5___ the same tables and will sometimes talk to you ___6___ they see that you are a (an)___7____. Next, take your dirty clothes to a laundry(洗衣店)!It takes about an hour to wash and dry, and many people ____8___ there. They often pass the ___9____ talking to the other customers.____10____ ask for information from a woman, if you are a ____11___ ; and from a man, if you are a woman !It seems to get ___12____ results for a reason I can't understand. Learn the____13____“Please”,“Thank you”, and “You're welcome” before you come and use them all the time! They usually work like magic(魔術(shù)).

  

  There are some things you shouldn't. Don't tell the truth when people ___14____“How are you?” They only ____15___ the answer to be “Fine”. Never ask people their ___16_____ -- especially women! Everyone wants to be young. Don't tell heavy people they are ____17___. Tell them they are losing ____18___. Everyone here wants to be ___19____. Don't be late for appointment! When someone says six o'clock, ____20___ be there by six. Americans respect time and expect everyone to be “on time”.

  

  Above all, don't worry ! Just follow my advice and bring a 1ot of money and you will get along. I hope I have been of some help to you.
