Ⅲ. 阅读理解(10分)
In Britain you may often hear “Drop in any time” or “Come to see me soon”, but you can’t really do that. People just say those things to make you feel welcome. It is better to telephone before visiting someone at home. If you receive a written invitation to an event that says “RSVP”, you should reply to let the person who sent the invitation know whether or not you plan to go.
You should never accept an invitation unless you really plan to go. You may refuse by saying, “Thank you for inviting me, but I will not be able to come. ”If, after accepting, you are unable to go, be sure to tell those who are expecting you as soon as possible that you will not be there. Although it is not necessarily expected that you give a gift to your host, it is considered polite to do so, especially if you have been invited for a meal. Flowers, chocolate, or a small gift are all appropriate(合适的). A thank-you note or telephone call after the visit is also considered polite and is an appropriate way to express your appreciation for the invitation.
1. What can you do when a British friend says, “Drop in any time”?
A. Visit him or her at any time.
B. Say no time to him or her seriously.
C. Telephone him or her before visiting.
D. Visit him or her soon.
【解析】选C。细节理解题。由第一段前三句可知。
2. What does the underlined word “RSVP” probably mean in Chinese?
- 10 -
A. 请自便 B. 请回复 C. 请审阅 D. 请来访
【解析】选B。词义猜测题。由其下文“you should reply to let the person who sent the invitation know whether or not you plan to go. ”中的“should reply”可知。
3. What should you do if your British friend sends you an invitation but you do not want to go?
A. Do not give him or her an answer.
B. Tell another friend to go instead of you.
C. Tell him or her that you can’t be there for some reasons.
D. Tell him or her that you don’t want to go there.
【解析】选C。细节理解题。由第二段中“If, after accepting, you are unable to go, be sure to tell those who are expecting you as soon as possible that you will not be there. ”可知。
4. Where would you probably see this passage?
A. In an invitation. B. In a guidebook.
C. On a poster. D. In a newspaper.
【解析】选B。推理判断题。综合全文知: 本文主要介绍了在英国, 如何发出邀请、接受邀请或拒绝邀请的一些文化习俗。主要指导人们了解在英国如何遵循与邀请相关的一些事项。故这篇文章很可能出现在指导手册上。
