Hugh Grant bumps into Julia Roberts and spills orange juice all over her. After the collision, Grant repeatedly says, “I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.”‎ His actions in this scene are very British. If Roberts were from Britain, then she would probably apologize repeatedly as well — even if the crash were not her fault. But this doesn't happen in the movie, as Roberts is from the US.‎ A report in The Telegraph once said that three quarters of British people apologize when they bump into someone in the street — regardless of whether they are responsible or not. In fact, Britons use “sorry” in many situations. For example, if they mishear someone, they say “Sorry？” The person they are talking to will also apologize by replying, “No, I am sorry！” This can go on for up to five minutes as they compete for who is the most sorry.‎ Why are Britons so sorry? Mark Tyrrell, a psychology writer in the UK, thinks that their apologetic tendencies are rooted in the British class system. “We say sorry because historically the new middle class in Britain had to apologize for not being the working class, but also for not really being the upper class.” Another theory is that they apologize to avoid conflicts. For example, if they bump into someone, he might get angry. To avoid this, they instantly say “Sorry！”‎ True manners are about being considerate, and today's constant use of apologizing shows that we are perhaps not as thoughtful as we once were. The word “sorry” has lost some of its meaning. Do you see my point? Sorry, it might just be a British thing.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了英国人的道歉文化及其原因：一是因为历史上英国的新中产阶级；二是为了避免冲突。‎ ‎1．Why does the author mention a scene in the movie Notting Hill at the beginning?‎ A．To give an example of British modesty.‎ B．To introduce different ways of saying sorry.‎ C．To show what kind of men are considered gentlemen in the UK.‎ D．To draw our attention to when and how British people say sorry.‎ 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第一段的描述可知，文章开头用电影作例，描述了英国人道歉的场景，引出文章的主题——英国的道歉文化。‎ ‎2．Which of the following statements might Mark Tyrrell agree with?‎ A．People should not apologize if they are not responsible.‎ B．Americans care less about manners than British people do.‎ C．That British people apologize so much is linked to the class system.‎ D．British people care too much about which social class they are from.‎ 解析：选C　推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Mark Tyrrell ...thinks that their apologetic tendencies are rooted in the British class system.”可知，Mark Tyrrell认为英国人的道歉根源于其阶级制度。由此可推断，C项正确。‎ ‎3．What can be inferred from the passage?‎ A．It's unnecessary for British people to be so polite.‎ B．The overuse of apologizing shows Britons are truly sincere.‎ C．People should not stick to the traditional use of the word “sorry”．‎ D．Using “sorry” more doesn't necessarily mean people are more polite.‎ 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第四段的内容以及最后一段中的“today's constant use of apologizing shows that we are perhaps not as thoughtful as we once were”可知，英国人道歉或是与他们的阶级制度有关，或是为了避免冲突，但今天的多次道歉已经失去了一些意义，并不意味着人们更有礼貌。‎ ‎4．What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?‎ A．To explore the best way of saying sorry.‎ B．To explain why Britons overuse the word “sorry”．‎ C．To show how saying sorry has changed over time.‎ D．To suggest many British people lack traditional manners.‎ 解析：选B　写作意图题。根据全文内容可知，本文由电影场景引入主题，介绍了英国的道歉文化，并介绍了英国人道歉的原因及今天道歉的意义，主要目的是介绍英国人过量使用道歉的原因。‎ B Some people are so rude!‎ Who sends an email or a text message that just says “Thank you”？ Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you? Who asks for a fact easily found on Google? Don't these people realize that they're wasting your time?‎ Maybe I'm the rude one for not appreciating life's little politeness. But many social agreed standards just don't make sense to people drowning in digital communication.‎ In texts, you don't have to declare who you are or even say hello. Email, too, is slower than a text. Voice mail is a now impolite way of trying to connect.‎ My father learned this lesson after leaving me a dozen voice mail messages, none of which I listened to. Exasperated,_he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I never returned his phone calls. “Why are you leaving him voice mail？” my sister asked. “Just text him.”‎ In the age of the smartphone, there is no reason to ask onceacceptable questions about: the weather forecast, a business's phone number, or directions to a house, a restaurant, which can be easily found on Google Maps. But people still ask these things. And when you answer, they respond with a thankyou email.‎ How to handle these differing standards? Easy. Consider your audience. Some people, especially older ones, appreciate a thankyou message. Others, like me, want no reply.‎ The anthropologist (人类学家) Margaret Mead once said that in traditional societies, the young learn from the old. But in modern societies, the old can also learn from the young. Here's hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that timewasting forms of communication do.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文，主要讨论了如今在智能手机时代，人们应该选择何种方式进行沟通。‎ ‎5．What does the underlined word “Exasperated” mean in the fifth paragraph?‎ A．Worried.　　　　　　 B．Surprised.‎ C．Annoyed. D．Tired.‎ 解析：选C　词义猜测题。根据第五段第二句中的“he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I never returned his phone calls”可知，作者的父亲对作者不给自己回电话很不满，由此可推知exasperated意思是“恼怒的，生气的”，故选C。‎ ‎6．Why didn't the writer reply to his father?‎ A．He liked text messages better.‎ B．He enjoyed checking his voice mail.‎ C．He didn't receive any voice mail messages.‎ D．He didn't want to talk with his father.‎ 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第五段中的“‘Why are you leaving him voice mail？’ my sister asked. ‘Just text him’．”可推知，作者不喜欢用语音信箱，更偏爱发短信，故选A。‎ ‎7．Which of the following does the writer agree to?‎ A．People needn't learn from one another in traditional societies.‎ B．Dealing with voice mail should vary with each individual.‎ C．People needn't turn to Google for help when in trouble.‎ D．Declaring who you are or saying hello in texts is necessary.‎ 解析：选B　推理判断题。根据第七段的内容可推知，标准是变化的，处理方式应该因人而异，而不是一刀切，语音信箱的使用亦是如此，故选B。‎ ‎8．What's the best title of this passage?‎ A．Nowadays: what should we do with text messages?‎ B．Nowadays: do you like leaving others a voice message?‎ C．Nowadays: what means should we use in communication?‎ D．Nowadays: do you need a thankyou message?‎ 解析：选C　标题归纳题。根据对文章内容的整体理解可知，第三段引入本文话题，最后两段点题总结，本文主要讨论的是如今(在智能手机时代)我们应该用何种方式沟通，故选C项。‎
