II. Complete the following passage with the words in the box. Each word can only be used once.(将下列单词填入空格。没空格限填一词，每个人单词只能用一次)4%

It's really true what people say about British politeness: it's_21_. When squeezing past someone in an _22_ space, people say "sorry". When getting off a bus, English passengers say “thank you” to the driver. In Germany, people would never dream of doing this: bus drivers are just doing their job.

I used to think in the German way, _23_ I was in Britain for a few years. I understood that there were more polite ways of _24_ people and I began to adopt some of those ways, too!

When people buy something in a shop, both the customers and the shop assistant usually thank each other, twice or more. In Germany, it would be unusual to hear more than one "thank you" in such a conversation. British students thank their lecturers when leaving the room. English employers thank their employees for doing their jobs, but Germans think that paying their workers money is already thanks enough.

21-24

【答案解析】CDEA

21.对于英国礼貌，人们说的是真的，到处都存在。

22.在一个狭窄的地方遇到某个人的时候。

23.直到我在英国待了一些年之后，我知道有更多对待人的礼貌的方式。

24.直到我在英国待了一些年之后，我知道有更多对待人的礼貌的方式。

But there is another side to British politeness. One word that comes to _25_ here is “artificial”. Although it is enjoyable to talk with friendly people, it has often made me wonder what the English really think. In fact, this _26_ me throughout my stay in England. Everyone at the university I attended seemed to like me and people in my class were kind and friendly but I found it hard to understand who was really my friend and who was “just being polite”.

I must say that British politeness is a little _27_ to me. For example, I often wonder why the English lose it when they drink too much. And then I think: maybe, drinking is a good _28_ for being rude once in a while. After all, having to be polite all the time can be stressful, right?

Five days after the London marathon, when the hard experience and muscle ache passed for every other runner, Lloyd Scott, a cancer survivor, lumbered(行动迟钝) across the finish line in his deep-sea driver’s suit to a hero’s welcome yesterday.

Cold, heavy, wet

Lloyd was interviewed by reporters from BBC and be introduced has difficult experience of his unforgettable London marathon. “During the time I’m walking, I have to pay attention to a great deal. Although I used to be a firefighter, I can’t get used to putting on the cold, heavy, wet deep-sea driver’s suit to run the marathon. At such bad moments. I think of the money I’m raising for Clic which provides a service for children and families. But the hardest thing happens exactly each morning. When I wake up, I have to find out what hurts and how much. You cannot imagine how hard it is to get into the cold and wet diving suit with all your muscles still warm and having to think about what will happen next, because I also have very poor eyesight and cannot see the broken stones on the roadside.”

Excellent examples

Paul Simons, an officer, thinks Lloyd has demonstrated a very British sense of determination. He describes Lloyd as an excellent example to all the nation, who has a unique pant of British character that the whole nation need. Karen Sugarman, another fundraiser of Clic thinks of Lloyd as Superman and an inspiration to many of the sufferers throughout the UK

Years ago, Lloyd was diagnosed(诊断)with cancer, he told himself it was not his end. He has come through that darkest period and he hopes that this run will encourage anyone else not to give up hope.

As a cancer survivor, Lloyd Scott is a mixture of fundraiser and inspiration. He is serious about his charity work for Cancer and Children Care. He really did something “larger than life” that is very close to his heart. He once ran across the Jordan Desert dressed as Indian Jones, climbed the Everest and walked to the South Pole...and this time his London marathon run successfully won him a place in the record books--for the slowest ever marathon.

Dario and his mother loved their new apartment. The living room was large enough for their piano. One night, the two of them sat side by side at the piano. They played jazz music to celebrate their new home. The loud music filled the room and made them feel very happy.

The next morning, however, their happiness vanished. Someone had left a note under their door during the night. One of their neighbors had written to complain about the sound of the piano. Dario’s mother asked the building superintendent (管理员) if he knew anything about it. But he said that they were all nice people and he couldn’t imagine any of them had done that. Later that morning, Dario suggested that they write a letter to their neighbors and apologize for their playing.

“Maybe we could go and visit everyone in person.” His mother said.

“How about inviting them to come here for a party instead?” Dario asked.

They both loved the idea. Over the next few days, they sent out invitations and prepared desserts for their guests. They decorated the apartment with streamers(彩带) and party lights.

In the end, the day of the party arrived. Some guests brought presents and flowers, and others brought desserts to share. One woman, Mrs. Gilbert, gave Dario's mother a book of piano music by Chopin.

“I heard you playing the other night,” she said. “The sound woke me out of bed. I was afraid that you might play like this every night. So I wrote a short note. I hope you don’t think I disliked the playing.”

Dario’s mother smiled at Mrs. Gilbert. “I think maybe we should apologize to you.” She said. “I didn’t realize how late it was when we were playing. Maybe we should play some quieter music at night.”

“I like what you play! Just try not to be so loud at night.” Mrs. Gilbert said. She pointed to the book she had given them “ These songs are not such loud music.”

"These songs are beautiful music." Dario's mother said. "We'll be happy 10 play them in the evening,"

“And we won't play so loud or late!" Dario said He was already looking forward to practicing the new music. More than that, however, he was happy to see the big smile on his mother's face. It gave him a feeling of warmth and made him feel that they were home at last.
