Any time you ask for something, it’s always a good idea to add this word to soften (变温和) the request. Thank you. When someone does something nice for you or gives you a gift, you should always say “Thank you”, even if it’s something you dislike. Excuse me. This expression is used when you are asking forgiveness (原谅) for leaving the table, coughing, or troubling somebody. May I…? The expression “May I…?” puts you on the same side as the person you are speaking to. For example, when you say “May I read that book?”, you give the person a chance to share what he is reading. Pardon me. This expression can be exchanged with “Excuse me”. But the expression “Pardon me” sounds more formal (正式的). Polite language is always helpful. Why not use it?

C Many people love to listen to music while they are driving. Thanks to musical roads, they can now enjoy music when taking road trips without the radio on. A musical road can create music when a car’s tyre (轮胎) goes over grooves (凹槽) on the road. To produce beautiful music, drivers must pass over the grooves at a certain speed. Signs often tell drivers the right speed. The first musical road was created in Gylling, Denmark, in 1995. Since the mid-1990s, musical roads have appeared (出现) in many different countries. For example, in Japan, there are many musical roads throughout the country. To alert (使意识到) drivers to the incoming music, the roads are painted with colored musical notes. Drivers can decide whether to go over the grooves or not because they are set on the side of the road. In Hungary, there is a musical road in honor of one of the country’s most popular musical performers—Laszlo Bodi. Bodi was the lead singer for the band Republic. Formed in 1990, the group is one of Hungary’s biggest acts and is still active today. Sadly, Bodi passed away (去世) in 2013. But people still remember him as there’s a road where drivers can hear 30 seconds of the Republic song Road 67. Musical roads are also keeping drivers safe. In Indonesia, a road plays the first six notes of Happy Birthday. The fifth note is a little out of tune (走调). This “mistake” keeps drivers awake. It has reduced the number of traffic accidents. Such is the power of music and musical roads. 8．What must drivers do to produce beautiful music on a musical road? A．Drive over the grooves at any speed. B．Drive over the grooves at a certain speed. C．Drive over the grooves while listening to the radio. 9．Why are musical roads painted with colored musical notes in Japan? A．To make the road more attractive. B．To help drivers avoid the grooves.
