37、ot on a bus. The conductor hurried to give her a warm welcome and then kindly asked the other passengers to make more room for the woman and her child. On seeing this, people began to talk. “You know this conductor used to be very rude. Now suddenly he has changed his bad behavior,” said a middle-ag

38、ed man. “Yes, he should be praised and we must write a letter to the company,” said a second passenger. “Thats right,” another lady said, “I wish a newspaper reporter were here so that more people could learn from this conductor.” Just then a gentleman who looked like a teacher turned to the conduct

39、or and said, “Excuse me, but can I know your name, please Your excellent service must be praised.” Before he could open his mouth, the three-year-old child sitting on the young womans lap interrupted, “I know his name.

40、 . A. make a demand for more buses B. thank the conductor for his good service C. criticize the conductor for his rude behavior D. invite a newspaper reporter to write about the conductor 65.

42、l passengers C. has not changed his rude behavior to passengers D. has now been kind and polite to women with children 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 C 【小题 3】 B 【小题 4】 C It is sometimes said that the English are polite people. This can make life difficult for foreigners. Suppose a foreign boy asks an English g

43、irl to go out with him and she says, “If I finish my work, Ill meet you in the cafe at 7 oclock.” Is she saying “yes” or “no” to his invitation In grammatical terms, she is using the conditional structure (表示条件的句式 ). By using the conditional, speakers of English can avoid giving a “yes” or “no” answ

44、er to a question. It enables people to be diplomatic (婉转的 ). If the girl doesnt want to go out with the boy, she wont turn up at the cafe. She will let him understand she is still working. If she wants to go out with him, but doesnt want to appear too easy to catch, she has achieved that with her re

45、ply. But in this case, as she uses the first conditional which shows probability, she is quite likely to turn up at the cafe. Being polite can make life very difficult! The conditional is often used by people in the news - politicians, for example - who wish to avoid speaking out their ideas. This i

46、s very important if they are on their way to discuss an agreement. No one wants to give away his or her points before he or she starts. A government spokesman might say to a group of work ers, “If we could pay you more, we would.” The use of the conditional here makes room for argument although the

47、speaker is using the second conditional form, which shows improbability. So it is unlikely the workers will get their rise. “If ” is a small word, which appears often in the English language. It can show politeness, reported speech and conditionals such as the First - probability - if I can come to

48、your party, I will; the Second - improbability - if I saw you tomorrow, Id give you the book; and the Third - impossibility (meaning it is too late to change something that has happened ) - if you have told me, I would have helped you. 60. The using of the conditional can make a speech _. A. clearer B. quicker C. more polite D.more exciting 61. Which of the following is true according to the passage A. Language used in the news should make room to argue. B. Usually En
