When she arrived, she was told she would1an hour every weekday with an elderly lady, Mrs. Blair. She was then led into a room, where an old lady in a flowery dress was sitting on a sofa.Emily2awkwardly（别扭地） in front of the lady. She cleared her throat and said,“Good afternoon. Im Emily.”“Good afternoon, Emily. Take a seat,please,”Mrs. Blair replied.Then,3filled the space between them. Emily wondered what to say.“Tell me about yourself,Emily,”Mrs. Blair said suddenly.“Well,” Emily started, “I dont have any grandparents, so I cant relate to elderly people much. I love the performing arts. Im here mainly because I have to 4here to get a good grade for my Civics class.”Mrs. Blair didnt seem to5.Many people, especially teens, dont seem to care about old people like me. Now youre here, and Im going to change that about you. Ask me anything.”Emily thought for a moment, and finally decided, “What was your job?”“I was a Broadway star in the 1950s,”Mrs. Blair answered.“Cool! Can you tell me about it?” Emily asked, amazed.Mrs. Blair smiled. “Back then, only the lead actress had the honor to wear a 6bracelet. I was the lead in almost all of the plays, so I always wore the bracelet. Till this day, I still have it.”Emily smiled along with Mrs. Blair and listened to the other stories, attentively. She had become so interested in Mrs. Blairs7that she decided to come earlier the next day.Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday passed by quickly. Then came Friday.

But “How are you?”is also a very unusual question.Its a question that often doesnt need an answer.The person who asks“How are you?”hopes to hear the answer“Fine”,even if the persons friend isnt fine.The reason is that “How are you?”isnt really a question and “Fine”isnt really an answer.They are simply other ways of saying“Hello”or “Hi”.Sometimes,people also dont say exactly what they mean.For example,when someone Asks “Do you agree?”,the other person might think,“No, I disagree.I think youre Wrong.”But it isnt very polite to disagree so strongly,so the other person might say“Im not sure.”Its a nicer way to say that you dont agree with someone.People also dont say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people.For example,many talks over the phone finish when one person say “Ive to go now.”Often,the person who wants to hang up gives and excuse:“Someones 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 doesnt want to talk any more,but it isnt polite to say that. The excuse is more polite,and it doesnt hurt the other person.Whether they are greeting each other,talking about an idea,of finishing a talk,people dont say exactly that they are thinking.Its an important way that people try to be nice to each other,and its part of the game of language.（1）When a person in America asks“How are you?”,he or she wants to hear A . How are you?B . HelloC . I dont know.D . Fine（2）When a person disagree with someone,it is polite to say“ ” A . You are wrong.I disagree.B . Im not sure.C . Im sure I disagree.D . No, I disagree.（3）A polite way to finish talk is to say“ ” A . You have to go now.B . I want to hang up.C . I have to go now.D . I dont want to talk any more.（4）When a person says“Ive to go now.Someones at the door.”,the person may be . A . giving an excuseB . hurting someones feelingC . illD . asking you a question（5）The rule of the game of language is probably . A . “Always say what you mean”B . “Dont disagree with people.”C . “Never say exactly what youre thinking.”D . “Be polite.”18. （10分）阅读理解BIm DavidWhen I was 13,my parents decided that I should go to England to improve my EnglishI had never been to other countries before，so I felt a little worriedMy parents prepared everything for my journeyMy plane was due(预期)to leave at 9：30 amand arrive in two hoursI phoned the English family who I would stay with and they told me they would wait for me at the airport(机场)Unluckily my plane to London was delayed (延误)I tried to phone the English family again but I couldnt speak to them because they had already left home for the airportWhen I arrived in Londonit was already 1：30p.mI went to get my luggage(行李)but I couldnt find itI became very worriedLuckily, the airport staff(工作人员)was very helpful and efficient I didnt wait long-they found it 10 minutes laterMy English family were still waiting for me!
