if not, you may not have a dry sense of humor. british people, and particularly the english, are well-known for our dry sense of humor. we often say the opposite of what we mean in order to be funny, and tell jokes in a tone of voice that makes it sound like we are being completely serious. as us writer julian tan put it on the huffpost students blog: “it is as if it is opposite day every day in britain.” if the people of britain are known for having a “stiff upper lip” and not showing emotion, then our dry sense of humor shows this through jokes. often it will take a long time or several beers, to get a british person to tell you what they actually think about something and get behind the wall of humorous sarcasm (讽刺) that they have in front of them.english comedian ricky gervais put it like this: “we play jokes on our friends. we use sarcasm as a shield (护盾) and a weapon. we avoid being serious until its absolutely necessary.”it can be annoying and confusing if you havent been raised with these types of jokes: “why did he just say such a ridiculous thing? is he making fun of me?” but it is also true that understanding this type of humor is a good way to make friends with people in the uk, even if you dont find it funny.its important to remember that the person telling the joke may actually be making fun of himself or herself, not you. one of the characteristics of british humor is “its strong theme of self-deprecation” (making fun of oneself), according to tan. so dont worry often, english people, and british people in general, just want to make fun of themselves!according to the passage, we can know that someone with a dry sense of humor can _.a. not use sarcasm as a shield and a weapon. b. not make friends with people in the ukc. pretend to play jokes on their friends d. say funny things in a serious waywhich of the following words best describes british humor according to julian tan?a. opposite. b. annoying. c. ridiculous. d. funny. the underlined phrase “stiff upper lip” in paragraph 3 refers to a quality of _. a. remaining calm b. communicating feelings c. taking a positive attitude d. focusing attentionit can be inferred from the passage that _.a. british people are famous for being emotionalb. british peoples humor is often misunderstoodc. its a tradition for british people to make fun of each other d. it doesnt take a long time to make friends with british peoplecaudrey hepburn won an academy award as best actress for her first major american movie, roman holiday, which was released in 1953. but she is remembered as much for her aid work as for her acting. born in belgium in 1929, audreys father was british and her mother was dutch. audrey was sent to live at a british school for part of her childhood. during world war, she lived and studied in the netherlands. her mother thought it would be safe from german attacks. audrey studied dance as a teenager and during college when she returned to london after the war. but she realized she wasnt going to be a ballerina. so she began taking acting parts in stage shows. later she began to get small parts in movies. but it was audrey hepburns move to america that brought her true fame. in 1951 she played the character “gigi” in the broadway play of the same name to great critical praise. two years later, roman holiday made her a star at the age of 24. audrey made more than 25 movies. among her most popular roles was holly golightly in breakfast at tiffanys in 1961. three years later she played eliza doolittle in my fair lady. she got married two times and had one son by each husband. in 1989, the un childrens fund named audrey a goodwill ambassador. she travelled all over the world in support of unicef projects. the un agency said she was a tireless worker. she often gave 15 interviews a day to gain money and support for unicef projects.audrey hepburn often said her loyalty to unicef was the result of her experiences as a child during world war. she said she knew what it was like to be starving and to be saved by international aid. she was a goodwill ambassador until her death in 1993 from colon cancer.in paragraph 1,“her aid work” means _.a. making movies b. taking acting parts in stage showsc. winning an academy award as best actressd. acting as a goodwill ambassador for unicefthe reason why audrey lived and studied in the netherlands was that _.a .she wanted to be a ballerina b. her parents were from britainc .the education there was excellent d. it was safe there_ is not mentioned in the passage about audrey hepburn.a. marriageb. identityc. contributiond. religion_ is the right order for audreys life. the first time she began to play in movies.she returned to london from the netherlands.she won an academy award as best actress.she travelled all over the world on support of unicef projects.she played a part in my fair lady.a. b. c. d.dtraveling without a map in different countries，i find out about different“styles”of directions every time i ask “how can i get to the post office?”foreign tourists are often confused in japan because most streets there dont have name signs：in japan，people use landmarks in their directions instead of street namesfor example，the japanese will say to travelers，“go straight down to the cornerturn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit marketthe post office is across from the bus stop”people in los angeles，the us，have no idea of distance on the map：they measure distance by time，not miles“how far away is the post office?”you ask“oh,”they answer，“its about five minutes from here” you dont understand completely，“yes，but how many miles away is it，please?”to this question you wont get an answer，because most probably they dont know it themselvespeople in greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the greek languageinstead，a greek will often say,“follow me”then hell lead you through the streets of the city to the post officesometimes a person doesnt know the answer to your questionwhat happens in the situation?
