题目列表(包括答案和解析)
“How are you?” is a nice question .It is a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other.But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question.
It is a question that often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “fine”,even if the person's friend is not fine. The reason is that “How are you?” is not really a question and “fine ”isnot really an answer.They are simply other ways of saying “Hello”or “Hi”.
Sometimes people also do not say exactly what they mean. For example ,when someone asks “do you agree ?” the other person might think “No,I disagree,I think you are wrong…”But it is not very polite to disagree so strongly,so the other person might say “I am not sure.” It is a nicer way to say that you do not agree with someone.
People also do not say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example,many talks over the phone finish when one person says “ I have to go now.” The person who wants to hang up often gives an excuse.“someone is at the door.”“something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real,or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply does not want to talk any more,but it is not polite to say that. The excuse is more polite,and it does not hurt the other person.
Wherther they are greeting each other,talking about an idea,or finishing a talk, people do not say exactly what they are thinking .It is an important way that people try to be nice to each other,and it is a part of the game of language.
