In the United States, if you telephone a man early in the day, while he is having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and that it requires immediate attention.The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11：00 pm.If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he will think it's a matter of life and death.The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.
In social life, time plays a very important part.In the USA, guests may tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is given only three or four days before the party day.But it is not true in all countries.In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten.The meaning of the time differs in different parts of the world.Promptness (准时) is valued highly in American life.If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible (有责任心的)．A person who is five minutes late is expected to make a short apology.If he is less than five minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.
41．Supposing one wants to make a telephone call at breakfast, this would mean______.
A．the matter is difficult to deal with B．the matter requires immediate attention
C．the matter is not important D．the matter is interesting

45．According to the passage, which of the following is RIGHT
A．If someone is less than five minutes late, he has to make a short apology.
B．It is best for one to make telephone calls at night, because it costs much less.
C．It may be appropriate to send your invitation cards three or four days before a dinner party in some countries.
D．It may be polite to send your invitation cards three or four days before the party day in the USA.
C
(a)It's_said_that_the_English_are_cold_and_unfriendly,_ but in fact this is because they are rather shy.If you are a foreigner, there are(b)a_number_of_ways to get to know the English.For example, imagine you are in a park where there are lots of people with their dogs.Now, you can't say to someone“What beautiful hair you have！”，even if it's true.But you can say, “What a lovely dog you have！”(c)a,_very,_conversation,_this,_to,_good,_start,_way,_a,_is,_ even if the dog isn't lovely at all.
Another way is to stand at the bus stop and say “What strange weather we're having.”(d)Remember_that_everyone_thinks_the_weather_in_England_is_strange. The other person will say, “Yes, it's much too hot.”if it's sunny, or “Yes, it's wonderful for the garden” if it's pouring with rain.Then, anyone who is listening will disagree, because no one agrees about the weather.After five minutes, you've made lots of friends.But the best way is to walk into a pub and ask in a loud voice, (e)“Can_I_buy_anyone_a_drink？” This is the common way to get to know the people.Of course, it's quite expensive.
46．请将(a)句画线部分译成汉语。
________________________________________________________________________
47．写出(b)处画线部分的近义词：______
48．请将(c)处画线单词连成一个句子。
________________________________________________________________________
49．请将(d)句改为反意疑问句， 每空一词。
Remember that everyone thinks the weather in England is strange, ______ ______？
