B

If you spend some time in an English-speaking country,you might hear the term “etiquette”. It means normal and polite social behavior. This may seem like a difficult word at first,but it can be very useful to understand.

Etiquette is not the same in every culture or in every situation. For example,standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries. However,if you do this in Europe,some people might feel uncomfortable. Even in China,we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations. Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine,but there are other places where talking loudly is not allowed. For example,most people would agree that talking loudly in a library,a museum or a movie theater is impolite. Even if you are with your friends,it is better to keep your voice down in public places.

If we see someone breaking the rules of etiquette,we may politely give them some suggestions. One of the most polite ways is to ask someone, Would you mind doing this or Would you mind not doing that. People donJ t usually like to be criticized,so we have to be careful how we do this.

Although rules of etiquette can often be different,some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world!For example,dropping litter is almost never allowed. If you see someone you know doing this, you can ask him, “Would you mind picking it up?”

根据短文内容,回答问题。

1. What does the word “etiquette” mean?

2. Find out the key sentence of Paragraph 2.

3. If your friend talks loudly in the library,what would you say to him/her?(根据你对短文的理

解,写出一个委婉的建议

4. 请将最后一段中的划线句子译成汉语。

5. 请给短文拟个标题。

文章围绕礼节及其规则展开,通过举例论述了礼节并非在每种文化和每种情况下都相同。

1. It means normal and polite social behavior.细节理解题。 第一段第一句中出现了 etiquette这个词,接着第二句 “.It means normal and polite social behavior. ” 对此作出解释。

2. Etiquette is not the same in every culture or in every situation.推理判断题。本段举例论述了礼节并非在每种文 化和每种情况下都相同,和本段第一句相吻合,故第一句是主题句。一篇短文通常有一个主题。文章中的每一段通常有一个主题句,一般来说,这个主题句通常位于这一段的开头。

3. Would you mind keeping your voice down ( in public places) ? / Would you mind not talking loudly (in public places) ? / Would you mind talking/speaking in a low voice/in low voices (in pubic places) ?推理判断题。文 中第三段第二句中给出了两个用于提建议的句型,即: Would you minfl doing.”?和 Would you mind not doing".? 如果你的朋友在图书馆等公共场所高声讲话,你可以用这两个句型之一来建议他/她低声讲话或请他/她不要在公共场所高声讲话。

4. 尽管礼节方面的规则常常会有所不同,但有些规则几乎在世界各地都是相同的。

注意although意为尽管,引导让步状语从句;can 表示推测,意为可能”。

5. Etiquette/Rules of Etiquette主旨大意题。本文的主题就 是etiquette (礼节) ,整篇文章围绕礼节及其规则展开,所以用EtiquetteRules of Etiquette作为题目都可以
