Question

  Have you heard of the term " etiquette ” ？

And do you know that etiquette is not only a useful word 1        very useful to understand?

  Etiquette is not the same in every culture 2        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 3       people might feel 4        Even inChina,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 5        For example,most people would agree that talking loudly in a library,a museum,or a movie theater is 6        Even if you are with your friends,it is better to keep you voice 7        in public places. In fact,we should also 8        not to cough or sneeze loudly in public.

  If we see someone 9        the rules of etiquette,we may politely give them some suggestions. Perhaps one of the most polite ways 10        ask someone,Would you mind doing this or Would you mind not doing that. For example,if someone cuts 11        you in a line,you could ask them,Sorry,would you mind 12        the line? If someone is smoking on the bus,you could ask,Excuse me,could you please 13        that cigarette? People don't usually like 14       ,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,15       is almost never allowed. If you see someone you know doing this,you can ask them,Would you mind picking it up?

Answer 1

1. D 前句中出現(xiàn)not only ,則后面對應的就應該是but also,表示"不僅……而且……"，句意為：你知道禮儀不僅僅是一個有用的詞，也是一個值得去理解深思的詞。

2. A 句意為：禮儀在不同的文化或者不同的情況下是不同的。因此這里應該用or。

3. C 上文提到的是亞洲人的禮儀方式，下面則是歐洲人的禮儀。因此，此處指的是歐洲人。句意為：如果你在歐洲也這樣做,歐洲人會感到很不舒服。

4. B 上文提到近距離和人交談在亞洲很正常。句意為:但是，如果你在歐洲這樣做，歐洲人會感到很不舒服。

5. C 句意為：大聲說話在家可能還好,但是在其他地方則是不被允許的。因此這里要用被動語態(tài)，be allowed表示"被允許"。

6. B 句意為：舉個例子，大多數(shù)人認為，在圖書館、博物館或者是電影院大聲說話是很粗魯?shù)摹?/p>

polite意為"有禮貌的"，rude意為"粗魯?shù)?， impossible意為"不可能的"，common意為"普通的"。

7. D 我們都知道，即使在自己的朋友面前,說話聲也不能太大。

keep the voice down意為"小聲說話"。句意為：即使是我們的朋友，在公共場合最好也要小聲說話。

8. A try意為"嘗試"，make it意為"明白"，take care of意為"照顧"，care for意為"關(guān)心"。句意為：事實上，我們在公共場合盡量不要大聲地咳嗽或者打噴嚏。

9. B follow"跟著"，break"打破"，obey"服從"。

see sb doing sth表示"看見某人做某事"。句意為：如果我們看見某人違背了一些禮儀規(guī)則，我們應該禮貌地給他們一些建議。

10. D one of the most polite ways.…是固定搭配，be to do表示"去做某件事"。句意為：或許最有禮貌的方法之一是問那個人"你介意我做某件事"或者"你介意我不做某件事嗎?"

14. C 句意為：人們通常不喜歡被批評，因此我們要注意處理問題的方式。根據(jù)句意可知，此處應當用被動語態(tài)。be criticized表示被批評。
