Unit 5 Good manners
单元话题阅读理解
一、阅读理解
It seems that food deliverymen(送货员)are always in a hurry. They wear blue,red or yellow helmets and many of them don't follow traffic rules. They drive on the wrong side of the road and drive through red lights. They use mobile phones while driving. These reckless (鲁莽的)behaviors have caught the public's attention.
In the first half of 2017,76 food deliverymen were killed or injured in traffic accidents in Shanghai,according to Shanghai Public Security Bureau. That means every two and a half days,a food deliveryman will die or get hurt on the road.
What makes deliverymen take such risks The strict rules of the food delivery service companies and the anxious(焦急的)customers may be the answer.
Many companies will fine a deliveryman up to 2,000 yuan,if he fails to deliver an order on time,reported China Daily. Fines also go to those who get bad reviews from customers.
To solve the problem,food delivery service companies need to improve their incentive systems(激励制度),noted CRI Online.
Some cities are also taking action. Shanghai has asked companies to train their deliverymen on traffic rules and safety. Now in Shenzhen,if a deliveryman gets caught breaking traffic rules more than twice,then he will be banned from driving food service delivery vehicles(交通工具)for a whole year.

When my family moved to America from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬) elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment(尴尬) in the United States. I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant.
One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感的) Americans are and how they dislike the description "old". I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.
In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect old people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.
However, in the United States, people think "growing old" is a problem since "old" shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercise or jogging, and women put on make up, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I told them something they didn't want to hear.
After that, I changed the way I had been with old people. It is not that I don't respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don't show my feelings through words.
（1）The writer brought the couple their food very fast because______________.
A．the manager asked him to do so B．he respected the elderly
C．the couple wanted him to do so D．he wanted more pay
（2）When the writer called the couple "elderly", they became _________.

（3）In the writer's hometown, ___________.
A．people dislike being called "old"
B．people are proud of being old
C．many people reach the age of seventy or eighty
D．the elderly are the first to get food in restaurants
（4）After this experience, the writer________.
A．lost his job in the restaurant
B．made friends with the couple
C．no longer respected the elderly
D．changed his way of being with older people
（5）Which of the following is TRUE
A．The more the writer explained, the angrier the couple got.
B．The writer wanted to show his feelings through words after this experience.
C．The manager went back to the table and apologized to the couple.
D．From this experience, the writer learned more about American culture.

The next morning, Bear returned to Cricket's house. "Come out, brave Cricket," called Bear. Suddenly he felt a terrible ache on his back. He yelled, but Cricket's friend Mosquito(蚊子) continued stinging(W) until Bear yelled, "I give up!"

Few words are spoken more often every day on the streets of Britain than "I'm sorry". This phrase has become such a common response (反应) that it has taken on a lot of meanings.
Saying "Sorry" means to apologize(道歉). This is simple and easy to understand. We learn it both as a native speaker and as a student of foreign languages.
But in Britain, it takes on another meaning. It is a cultural expression. Imagine this: a man walks down the street, looking down at his phone. A woman is walking in the opposite direction, towards the man. She sees him, but she can't get out of the way in time. The man bumps(碰撞) into the woman. Who should say sorry Naturally, the man should say sorry, because it was he who wasn't looking where he was going. Yet in Britain, it is common for both to apologize.
It is known that British people, like most people, do not enjoy conflict(冲突). So to quickly calm the situation, British people will apologize to each other.
Other times it may sound funny to hear "sorry". Some of my friends say it at restaurants, as they ask the waiter, "Sorry, but can I order another drink " It is not to apologize, but just to express that we need the waiter. In Britain, sorry doesn't always mean exactly what you think.
（1）According to the passage, "saying sorry" is a cultural expression in .
A．the USA B．the UK C．the WWF D．the UN
（2）What does the underlined phrase "take on" mean in Paragraph 1

（3）The example in the third paragraph is used to .

B．describe how "sorry" has another meaning in Britain
C．explain why people should say sorry to each other
D．show how polite British people are
（4）The restaurant example shows that "sorry" can be used to .
A．apologize B．calm a situation down
C．explain what you're thinking about D．ask a waiter to bring something
（5）What might be a good title for the passage
A．"I'm Sorry" Is More Than just an Apology
B．Traditional British Manners
C．How to Best Catch Others' Attention
D．Finding a Way out of a Difficult Situation

I went home one Saturday afternoon in the autumn of 1993 to get some work done in the garden. While I was sweeping leaves on the ground, my five year old son Nick came over and asked me to write something on a piece of paper to make a sign for him.
"What for " I asked.
"I'm going to sell some of my stones," he answered.
Nick was fascinated with stones and had collected many stones from all over. "I'm too busy to do that for you. Go and ask your mum for help." I said.
A short time later, Nick returned with a sign, reading. "Stones. One Dollar Each". He took the sign, a small chair and 4 of his best stones and walked to the road in front of our garden. There he put the stones in a line and sat down on the chair.
After half an hour, nobody passed by. I walked to him and asked him to go back, but he didn't.
Another half an hour later, a small car came down the road. Nick stood up, holding his sign up. A woman rolled down(摇下) a window and read the sign. I couldn't hear their talk, but I saw the woman turn to the driver and the man reach into his pocket for money.
I sat in the yard, as Nick ran to me. Waving the dollar, he shouted. "I told you I could sell one stone for a dollar—if you believe in yourself, you can do anything."

When my family moved to America from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬) elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment(尴尬) in the United States. I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant.
One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感的) Americans are and how they dislike the description "old". I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.
In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect old people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.
However, in the United States, people think "growing old" is a problem since "old" shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercise or jogging, and women put on make up, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I told them something they didn't want to hear.
After that, I changed the way I had been with old people. It is not that I don't respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don't show my feelings through words.

Few words are spoken more often every day on the streets of Britain than "I'm sorry". This phrase has become such a common response (反应) that it has taken on a lot of meanings.
Saying "Sorry" means to apologize(道歉). This is simple and easy to understand. We learn it both as a native speaker and as a student of foreign languages.
But in Britain, it takes on another meaning. It is a cultural expression. Imagine this: a man walks down the street, looking down at his phone. A woman is walking in the opposite direction, towards the man. She sees him, but she can't get out of the way in time. The man bumps(碰撞) into the woman. Who should say sorry Naturally, the man should say sorry, because it was he who wasn't looking where he was going. Yet in Britain, it is common for both to apologize.
It is known that British people, like most people, do not enjoy conflict(冲突). So to quickly calm the situation, British people will apologize to each other.
Other times it may sound funny to hear "sorry". Some of my friends say it at restaurants, as they ask the waiter, "Sorry, but can I order another drink " It is not to apologize, but just to express that we need the waiter. In Britain, sorry doesn't always mean exactly what you think.
（1）According to the passage, "saying sorry" is a cultural expression in .
A．the USA B．the UK C．the WWF D．the UN

（3）The example in the third paragraph is used to .

D．show how polite British people are
（4）The restaurant example shows that "sorry" can be used to .
A．apologize B．calm a situation down
C．explain what you're thinking about D．ask a waiter to bring something
（5）What might be a good title for the passage
A．"I'm Sorry" Is More Than just an Apology
B．Traditional British Manners
C．How to Best Catch Others' Attention
D．Finding a Way out of a Difficult Situation

I went home one Saturday afternoon in the autumn of 1993 to get some work done in the garden. While I was sweeping leaves on the ground, my five year old son Nick came over and asked me to write something on a piece of paper to make a sign for him.
"What for " I asked.
"I'm going to sell some of my stones," he answered.
Nick was fascinated with stones and had collected many stones from all over. "I'm too busy to do that for you. Go and ask your mum for help." I said.
A short time later, Nick returned with a sign, reading. "Stones. One Dollar Each". He took the sign, a small chair and 4 of his best stones and walked to the road in front of our garden. There he put the stones in a line and sat down on the chair.
After half an hour, nobody passed by. I walked to him and asked him to go back, but he didn't.
Another half an hour later, a small car came down the road. Nick stood up, holding his sign up. A woman rolled down(摇下) a window and read the sign. I couldn't hear their talk, but I saw the woman turn to the driver and the man reach into his pocket for money.
I sat in the yard, as Nick ran to me. Waving the dollar, he shouted. "I told you I could sell one stone for a dollar—if you believe in yourself, you can do anything."
