Dear Lin Tao,

I love studying in London and I have many new friends. Most of them are my classmates. From Monday to Friday, we have English, math, physics and P. E. in the morning.

We usually have two classes in the afternoon—art and politics. We finish our classes at 3:30 p.m. After school, my friends and I always play football on the playground. And then we go home by bus.
On weekends, we have no classes. We often go to the park and sometimes we go to the movies in the evening. We see movies twice a month. I like some famous(著名的)actors like Jackie Chan.

What do pandas, tigers, whales, lions and wild camels have in common (共同的)? They are all endangered (濒临灭绝的). Here are the reasons.
Hunting: For centuries, people hunted elephants for their tusks, killed tigers for their fur, and caught many other animals for their meat.
Foreign animals: In 1505, some people discovered a beautiful island named Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. People brought dogs, pigs, monkeys and rats with them, but this was bad news for dodo birds. The birds did not have natural enemies (天敌) before. They ate fruit that fell from trees and built their house on the ground. But when people came, dodo birds were in big trouble—men killed them for their meat, and the new animals broke their homes and ate their eggs.The number of dodo birds became smaller and smaller and finally extinct. The last dodo bird was killed in 1681.
Loss of living space: People cut down forests for farming and building houses. People build dams (水坝) to make sure they have enough water.While we make our lives comfortable, other animals have less and less space.

The holiday season will be here soon, and with it come tons of parties. Here's how to mind your manners at the dinner table:
First things first:
Mind the little details. Respond to invitations in time; it's always better to be overdressed; be fashionably on time; bring a gift for your host or hostess; and remember to silence your phone and keep it out of sight.
After you sit down:
The first thing you should do is place your napkin(餐巾)in your lap. Leave it there until the end of the meal. If you excuse yourself from the table, the most common practice is to place it on your seat until you return. If you're worried that your napkin has food on it that could make the seat or your clothes dirty when you sit back down, place it to the left of your plate instead.
To locate your bread plate and drink:
When in doubt, look to your hands. With your palms(手掌)facing each other, connect the tip of each pointer finger(食指)with your thumbs(拇指). You'll see that your left hand will form a "b", and your right hand, a "d". These stand for "bread" and "drink", which you will find to your left and to your right, separately.
What to do with utensils(餐具):
Your safest bet is to start from the outside-the utensils farthest from your plate-and move inward as the meal progresses. However, dessert(甜点)utensils may also be found above your plate.
Resting utensils:
If you are taking a break from eating, imagine your plate is a clock and place your knife and fork down at the 3 o'clock position. You can show that you are finished eating by placing your utensils in the 10 and 4 o'clock positions.
After the party:
Don't forget a thank-you note. It should be sent within two weeks after the event.
16. When attending a dinner at someone's home, you are advised to ________.
A. prepare a gift for the person who is hosting it
B. avoid being overly dressed up
C. thank the host or hostess for the invitation
D. turn your mobile phone off at the dinner table
17. Where should you place your napkin when you get up from the table?
A. Under your plate. B. On your plate.
C. To the left of the plate. D. Over the back of your chair.
18. What is normally put to your right side on the table?
A. Dessert utensils. B. Bread plate. C. Napkin. D. Drink.
19. To show you have finished eating, you can place your utensils in the ________ position.
A. 1 o'clock B. 3 o'clock C. 4 o'clock D. 9 o'clock
【答案】16. A 17. C 18. D 19. C
【解析】
【分析】短文介绍了如何参加聚会以及应该注意的一些餐桌礼仪。
【16题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中“bring a gift for your host or hostess” 给主人带礼物。可知,当你在别人家里吃饭时,你最好为主办人准备礼物,故答案为A。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三部分"If you're worried that your napkin has food on it that could stain the scat or your clothes when you sit back down, place it to the left of your plate instead”如果你担心餐巾纸上的食物会在你坐下时弄脏你的衣服,那就把餐巾纸放在盘子的左。可知当你从桌子上站起来的时候,你能把餐巾放在你盘子的左边。故答案为C。
【18题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四部分"These stand for "bread" and "drink,"which you will find to your left and to your right,respectively这些代表"面包"和"饮料",你会发现在你的左边和右边。可知饮料通常放在桌子的右侧,故答案为D。
【19题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中“You can show that you are finished eating by placing your utensils in the 10 and 4 o'clock positions.” 你可以把餐具放在10点和4点的位置来表示你已经吃完了。可知,为了显示你已经吃完了,你可以把你的餐具放在4点这个位置。故答案为C。

What do pandas, tigers, whales, lions and wild camels have in common (共同的)? They are all endangered (濒临灭绝的). Here are the reasons.
Hunting: For centuries people hunted elephants for their tusks, killed tigers for their fur, and caught many other animals for their meat.
Foreign animals: In 1505, some people discovered a beautiful island named Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. People brought dogs, pigs, monkeys and rats with them, but this was bad news for dodo birds. The birds did not have natural enemies (天敌) before. They ate fruit that fell from trees and built their house on the ground. But when people came, dodo birds were in big trouble—men killed them for their meat, and the new animals broke their homes and ate their eggs.The number of dodo birds became smaller and smaller and finally extinct. The last dodo bird was killed in 1681.
Loss of living space: People cut down forests for farming and building houses. People build dams (水坝) to make sure they have enough water.While we make our lives comfortable, other animals have less and less space.

The holiday season will be here soon, and with it come tons of parties. Here's how to mind your manners at the dinner table:
First things first:
Mind the little details. Respond to invitations in time; it's always better to be overdressed; be fashionably on time; bring a gift for your host or hostess; and remember to silence your phone and keep it out of sight.
After you sit down:
The first thing you should do is place your napkin(餐巾)in your lap. Leave it there until the end of the meal. If you excuse yourself from the table, the most common practice is to place it on your seat until you return. If you're worried that your napkin has food on it that could make the seat or your clothes dirty when you sit back down, place it to the left of your plate instead.
To locate your bread plate and drink:
When in doubt, look to your hands. With your palms(手掌)facing each other, connect the tip of each pointer finger(食指)with your thumbs(拇指). You'll see that your left hand will form a "b", and your right hand, a "d". These stand for "bread" and "drink", which you will find to your left and to your right, separately.
What to do with utensils(餐具):
Your safest bet is to start from the outside-the utensils farthest from your plate-and move inward as the meal progresses. However, dessert(甜点)utensils may also be found above your plate.
Resting utensils:
If you are taking a break from eating, imagine your plate is a clock and place your knife and fork down at the 3 o'clock position. You can show that you are finished eating by placing your utensils in the 10 and 4 o'clock positions.
After the party:
Don't forget a thank-you note. It should be sent within two weeks after the event.
16. When attending a dinner at someone's home, you are advised to ________.
A. prepare a gift for the person who is hosting it
B. avoid being overly dressed up
C. thank the host or hostess for the invitation
D. turn your mobile phone off at the dinner table
17. Where should you place your napkin when you get up from the table?
A. Under your plate. B. On your plate.
C. To the left of the plate. D. Over the back of your chair.
18. What is normally put to your right side on the table?
A Dessert utensils. B. Bread plate. C. Napkin. D. Drink.
19. To show you have finished eating, you can place your utensils in the ________ position.
A. 1 o'clock B. 3 o'clock C. 4 o'clock D. 9 o'clock
