题目列表(包括答案和解析)
完形填空
The British love to think of themselves as polite, and everyone knows how fond they are of their “pleases” and “thank yous” . Even the simplest business such as buying a train ticket requires 1 seven or eight of these. Another 2 of our good manners is the queue. New-comers to Britain could be forgiven for thinking that queuing rather than football was the 3 national sport. Finally, of course, motorists generally stop at crossings. But does all this mean that the British should consider themselves more polite than their European neighbors ? I think not.
Take forms of address (称呼)for example. The average English person— 4 he happens to work in a hotel or department store—would rather die than call a stranger “Sir” or “Madam” . Yet in some European countries this is the most basic of common address. Our 5 “you” for everyone may appear more democratic, but it means that we are forced to seek out complicated ways to express 6 . I am all for returning to the use of “thee” and “thou”Thee and thou are old-fashioned poetic words for “you”); “you”would be 7 for strangers and professional relationships.
And of course, the English find touching and other shows of friendship truly terrifying. Have you noticed how the British 8 ever touch ? Personally, I find the Latin habits of shaking hands or a friendly kiss quite charming. Try kissing the average English person, and they will either take two steps backwards in horror ; or, if their escape is 9 , you will find your lips touching the back of their head. Now what could be 10 than that ?
