You can see this passage from.Aa story bookBa posterCa science fiction（科幻小说）Da medical magazineApril FoolEvery year, we celebrate many special daysMothers Day, Fathers Day, and New Years Day. In North America and parts of Europe, people celebrate April Fools Day.Many believe that the French started April Fools Day. Centuries ago, New Years Day in Europe was April 1. In 1582, the calendar changed and King Charles IX of France moved it to January 1. Some people did not like this and chose to keep April 1 as New Years Day. Many called these people “April fools” and played jokes (开玩笑) on them. Over time, April 1 became a day to have fun in France. It then became popular in England and Scotland, and later, to North America.On April Fools Day, playing jokes is popular. In the United States, for example, a person may move a friends clock one hour earlier, or change the sugar with salt. In Spain and Mexico, people play jokes on each other on December 28. In India, it happens on March 31. In many countries around the world, April 1 is a day of fun. There is a lot of fun, and many shouts of “April Fool!”56 .

In the UK, tipped workers are paid as much as nontipped workers, but in the United States tipped workers make much less per hour. Money from tips is expected to provide a large amount of tipped workers overall wage(工资) in the USA. So tipping in the USA isnt just a nice thing to do, but its pretty important to know how to tip properly. Its not a must.Just so were clear, there are no laws(法律) saying you have to tip. You wont cause an international accident over a tipping problemyou may just upset the person who has been serving you if you dont tip him or her. It is expected. Wed certainly suggest it if you plan to use that restaurant, hotel or delivery boy again! There are lots of things that arent against laws but impolite. Not tipping is one of those impolite things. It is common. In the USA, people are expected to tip waiters, taxi drivers, hairdressers and your Im so hungry pizza delivery guys (or any delivery guys at any time). Know how much to tip. The standard(标准的) amount is 15%. And its encouraged to give 20% for great service. Be generous! For larger groups at restaurants, the tip is often included(包含) in the bill, so keep an eye out for more specific instructions and information. Be a hightech tipper. You may havent noticed that most Americans are not big fans of math. But they do love a good app, so they can use many apps to work out how much the tip is. Anyway, you can also use the oldfashioned pencil and paper to work out the tip.59 . In which country, tipped workers are paid much less per hour?A.In the UK.AIn the USA.BIn China.CIn Thailand.60 . If your cost in a hotel with great service is $100, you are expected to tip _.A$10B$15C$20D$2561 . According to the passage, which one is TRUE about tipping in the USA?AThe tip is never included in the bill.BTipping is expected by tipped workers.CHightech is the only way to work out how much the tip is.DThere are some laws asking you to tip someone who serves you.62 . The best title for this passage is “_”.AHow much to tip?BHow to tip properly?CHow to be a hightech tipper?DHow to work out the tip?八、根据首字母、中文提示填空根据句意及汉语意思写单词63 .
