阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A,B,C和D)中选出最佳选项。
If you have made an agreement to go out to eat with someone, you should be clear who is paying. If the other suggests you have lunch with him or her, you might simply say something like this:“I'm afraid it'll have to be some place inexpensive as I have very little money.”The other person may say,“OK, I'll meet you at McDonald's.”This means it is agreed that each person pays for his own meal, i. e. that you “go Dutch”. If the person says,“Oh, no. I'll take you to lunch in a little restaurant I like very much,”it means that the person wants to pay the bill for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, there's no reason why you should not accept this invitation by simply saying “Thank you. That would be very nice.”If a person invites you to his or her home for a meal, it's understood that person is paying. If you invite someone to your home, it's understood that you are buying the food. If you want to invite someone out for lunch, you must also make yourself clear by saying, perhaps,“I'd like to take you to lunch tomorrow at the Hostess Inn Coffee Shop”(meaning you plan to buy the food) or“let's have lunch together tomorrow at Burger King. It's on me.”American women used to expect men to pay for all meals, but today most women will pay for themselves. However, you should always make your position clear. Being clear is the polite thing to do. It is lack of clarity (明了) that causes loss of face in this situation.
1.According to the passage, if someone asks you to go out to eat, ________.
[ ]
A.it shows he wants to pay for you
B.it doesn't necessarily meant that he wants to pay for you
C.you should ask him to go out to eat next time
D.you should refuse him if you don't like him
2.The underlined part“go Dutch”means ________.
[ ]
A.each paying for himself
B.buying the food at a store
C.paying for the two of you
D.going to some inexpensive place
3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
[ ]
A.Men are expected to pay for women when they are eating out.
B.One should accept another person's invitation if he isn't one's good friend.
C.“It's on me.”means“I'll pay for the meal.”
D.If you are invited to someone's house for a meal, you should bring some gifts.
3.In order not to lose face, ________.
[ ]
A.one should try to pay for others
B.one should not eat out without carrying a lot of money
C.one shouldn't let a woman pay for him
D.one should make oneself clear and understood

Here is a true story about a famous man who worked in the White House and a criminal. They once faced the same thing: their mother gave them apples when they were young.
The criminal said: one day, my mother brought some apples and asked my brother and me: “Which do you want?” “The reddest and biggest one,” my little brother said. My mother stared at him and said to him angrily: “You should learn to give the good things to others; you shouldn’t always think of yourself.” Seeing this, I suddenly changed my idea and then said to my mother: “Mum, please give me the smaller one and give the bigger one to my little brother.” Hearing my words, my mother was very happy. She kissed me on my face and gave the reddest and biggest apple to me as a prize. From then on, I learned to tell lies, fight, steal and rob. In order to get what I wanted, I played hard. As a result, I was sent into prison.
The famous man from the White House said: One day, my mother brought some apples. She said to my brother and me: “You all want the reddest and biggest one, right? Well, let’s have a competition.

And I will give the reddest and biggest apple to him who does it the most quickly and best.”
After the competition, I won and I got the biggest apple. In our family, as long as you want to get the best things, you must take part in competition. I think it is fair. No matter what you want, you must pay lots of efforts.
