Many experts (专家) use it to tell people its important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight（超重）. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. But, a team of American scientists have found something new about eating sweet food.“When we say some people sweet, we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps(也许) this word can help us learn more about peoples feelings and acts.” said Brian Meier, a scientist from the study team. “Taste is something we experience every day. What we have done is to find whether we can know someones character(角色) and behavior(行为) depending on their taste.”In one of their experiments(实验), students were asked questions about their characterwhether, for example, they were soft-hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favorite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer.In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate were more willing to help other people in need, and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips werent. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in the hospital and so on.The result of the experiments is that peoples helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice-cream.（1）The underlined word it refers to .

Its a friendly way that people in the U.S.A greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. Its a question that often doesnt need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the persons friend isnt fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isnt really a question and “Fine” isnt really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.Sometimes, people also dont say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think youre Wrong.” But it isnt very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “Im not sure.” Its a nicer way to say that you dont agree with someone.People also dont say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say “Ive to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse(藉口): “Someones at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesnt want to talk any more, but it isnt polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesnt hurt the other person.Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people dont say exactly that they are thinking. Its an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and its part of the game of language.（1）When a person in America asks “How are you?” he or she wants to hear “ ” A . How are you?B . Hello.C . I dont know.D . Fine.（2）When a person disagrees with someone, it is polite to say“ .” A . You are wrong. I disagreeB . Im not sureC . Im sure I disagreeD . No, I disagree（3）A polite way to finish talk is to say“ .” A . You have to go nowB . I want to hang upC . I have to go nowD . I dont want to talk any more（4）When a person says “Ive to go now. Someones at the door.” the person may be_. A . giving an excuseB . hurting someones feelingC . illD . asking you a question（5）The rule of the game of language is probably . A .

Use questions such as “Do you like ?” or “Can you ?” or “Have you ever ?”Remember your goal. You are trying to learn about the other person.
