Hugh Grant bumps into Julia Roberts and spills orange juice all over her. After the collision, Grant repeatedly says, “Im so sorry. Im so sorry”His actions in this scene are very British. If Roberts were from Britain, then she would probably apologize repeatedly as welleven if the crash were not her fault. But this doesnt happen in the movie, as Roberts is from the US.A report in The Telegraph once said that three quarters of British people apologize when they bump into someone in the streetregardless of whether they are responsible or not. In fact, Britons use “sorry” in many situations. For example, if they mishear someone, they say “Sorry?” The person they are talking to will also apologize by replying, “No, I am sorry!” This can go on for up to five minutes as they compete for who is the most sorry.Why are Britons so sorry? Mark Tyrrell, a psychology writer in the UK, thinks that their apologetic tendencies are rooted in the British class system. “We say sorry because historically the new middle class in Britain had to apologize for not being the working class, but also for not really being the upper class” Another theory is that they apologize to avoid conflicts. For example, if they bump into someone, he might get angry. To avoid this, they instantly say “Sorry!”True manners are about being considerate, and todays constant use of apologizing shows that we are perhaps not as thoughtful as we once were. The word “sorry” has lost some of its meaning. Do you see my point? Sorry, it might just be a British thing.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了英国人的道歉文化及其原因:一是因为历史上英国的新中产阶级;二是为了避免冲突。4Why does the author mention a scene in the movie Notting Hill at the beginning?ATo give an example of British modesty.BTo introduce different ways of saying sorry.CTo show what kind of men are considered gentlemen in the UK.DTo draw our attention to when and how British people say sorry.D解析:推理判断题。根据第一段的描述可知,文章开头用电影举例,描述了英国人道歉的场景,引出文章的主题英国的道歉文化。5Which of the following statements might Mark Tyrrell agree with?APeople should not apologize if they are not responsible.BAmericans care less about manners than British people do.CThat British people apologize so much is linked to the class system.DBritish people care too much about which social class they are from.C解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Mark Tyrrell.thinks that their apologetic tendencies are rooted in the British class system”可知,Mark Tyrrell认为英国人的道歉根源是其阶级制度。由此可推断,C项正确。6What can be inferred from the passage?AIts unnecessary for British people to be so polite.BThe overuse of apologizing shows Britons are truly sincere.CPeople should not stick to the traditional use of the word “sorry”.DUsing “sorry” more doesnt necessarily mean people are more polite.D解析:推理判断题。根据第四段的内容以及最后一段中的“todays constant use of apologizing shows that we are perhaps not as thoughtful as we once were”可知,英国人道歉或是与他们的阶级制度有关,或是为了避免冲突,今天的多次道歉也并不意味着人们更有礼貌。7What is the authors purpose in writing this passage?ATo explore the best way of saying sorry.BTo explain why Britons overuse the word “sorry”.CTo show how saying sorry has changed over time.DTo suggest many British people lack traditional manners.B解析:写作意图题。根据全文内容可知,本文由电影场景引入主题,介绍了英国的道歉文化,并介绍了英国人道歉的原因及今天道歉的意义,主要目的是介绍英国人过量道歉的原因。 完形填空(2019昆明高三调研)You may always hear about people who knew exactly what they wanted to do with their life from the time they were in kindergarten.
