A
Every person uses his own special words to show his ideas and feelings. Some of these expressions are commonly used for many years.1. _________. One such American expression is“Where's the beef ?”It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s,“Where's the beef ?”was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. 2. __________________ .
Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and no food is more popular in America than a hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s, a businessman named Ray Kroch began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Kroch called his restaurant "McDonald's",
3. __________________ .
Other business people saw his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company called“Wendy's" said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by MeDonald's or anyone else. The Wendy's company began to use the expression“Where's the beef ?" to make people know that Wendy's hamburgers were the biggest. 4. __________________ .
The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a bit of meat. One of the women said she would not cat a hamburger with such a lttle piece of beef."Where's the beef?"5._________________ .
The advertisement for Wendy's hamburger restaurants was a success. As we said, it seemed everyone began using the expression "Where's the beef?"
A. It seemed as if everyone was using it at that time.
B. Ray Kroch became one of the richest businessmen in America.
C. The Wendy's television advertisement(广告) showed three old women eating

"How are you?" is a nice question It's a friendly way that people in the USA greet each other But "How are you?" is also a very usual question. It's a question that often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?" hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person's friend isn't fine. The reason is that “How are you?" isn't rally a question and“Fine" isn't really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying "Hello" or"Hi".
Sometimes, people don't say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks“Do you agree?", the other person might think, "No, I disagree. I think you're wrong.." But it isn't very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say“I'm not sure." It's a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone.
People don't say exactly what they arc thinking when they want to finish talking with other people. For example, many 1aks over the phone finish when one person says “I've to go now.”
Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse:“Someone's at the door." "Something is burning on the stove." The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn't hurt the other person.
Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don't say exactly what they are thinking. It's an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it's part of the game of language.
