D 结合前三段所描写的情景以及第四段第一句话可知，这一幕发生在一家餐馆中。 2. C英国人和美国人在讨论小费给多少，而中国人根本不知道小费是什么，这是根据第三段所说的 it is not a custom to tip in China 可知。 3. D 在这些国家，给小费是很常见的。 4. A 从第二段中英国人和美国人的讨论可以看出，美国人小费给得相对较多,再结合本段最后 How lucky these waiters and waitresses in the US are! 一句,可以判断美国人小费给得最多。 5. A在这种小费文化之下，人们消费后会被期待付给服务员小费。be expected to do 表示被期待做某事; be required/ needed to do 表示被要求,给小费是一种传统,并不是硬性规定; be allowed to do 是被允许,也不符合文意。 6. B 吃了100美元的食物，再加上15美元的小费，一共消费 115 美元。 7.

D 日本没有给小费的传统，和前面提到的 Indonesia和 Thailand 不一样,因此用 however表示转折。 六 文章大意: Tramper试图发现公主们夜间的行动。Tramper发现了事情的真相，但他并没有立刻告诉国王，而是请求再调查两晚。 1. C 文章开始的时候应该是第一次尝试，之后国王又允许两次，所以一共允许三次。 2. D 从文中 He had enjoyed the fish so much that he was hoping for a second supper.以 及 He had enjoyed the turkey so much that he was hoping for a third supper.可以看出，他喜欢吃公主们送过来的食物，因此没有告诉国王真相。 3. B 根据文中 Again the princesses danced and danced until their slippers were broken.可知,公主们穿着拖鞋。 4. D 从文中可以看出，Tramper打鼾是故意做给国王看的，并不是为了寻找真相而做。 5.
