Answer 1

分析 本文属于说明文，主要谈论的人们在生活和工作个方面都要注意文明礼仪以及有礼貌的好处．没有礼貌的人生活和工作都不会成功，我们对所遇见的人要有客气；当在你说话的时候，你要知道对方是否愿意听你讲话，或者你有没有打断别人的发言．

37．E 联系上下文．横线前两句They do not get good jobs or promotions．Their business do not succeed．叙述的是没有礼貌的人生活和工作都不会成功．再根据横线后两句They are liked and supported．They have friends，luck and success．中的they应该是指有礼貌的人．所以本句使用B项"People with good manners are accepted．"对有礼貌的人和没有礼貌的人进行前后对比． 故选E．
38．C 前后照应题．根据本段第一句Be polite to everyone you meet．可知本段主要讲述的我们对所遇见的人要有客气．所选答案必须是与polite相关的句子，只有C项"You will never regret being polite，but you might regret being rude．"是在叙述polite的好处．故C项符合本段中心思想． 故选C．
39．A 上下文串联题．根据横线前一句Do not interrupt people．不要打断别人．也就是说在你说话的时候要知道对方是否愿意听你讲话，你有没有打断别人的发言．所以F项"Make sure people are ready to listen to you before you start talking．"符合上下文串联． 故选A．
40．F联系下文题．根据横线后一句Cutting in front of other cars only gains you a few seconds of time．插到其他汽车前面只会给你节省几秒钟的时间．说明本段是关于开车的礼仪．故A项"Use good manners when driving．开车时要有礼貌"与上下文一致． 故选F．
41．B前后串联题．根据横线前一句A good sense of humor shows good manners．幽默也说明有礼貌．本句应该与上句相一致，谈论的都是与幽默有关的话题．选项中只有E项"Tell jokes or pass on humorous stories that everyone will enjoy．"是与幽默有关的．所以E项符合前后串联．故选B．
