题目内容
An important question about eating out is who pays for the meal. If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you may say something like this: “I'm afraid it'll have to be some place cheap, as I have very little money.” The other person may say: “OK, I'll meet you at McDonald's.”
This means that the two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say: “Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Johnson's,” or “I want you to try the steak (牛排) there. It's great.” This means the person wants to pay for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him and you needn't pay for the meal. You may just say: “Thank you. That would be very nice.”
American customs (风俗) about who pays for dates (约会) aremuch the same as in other parts of the world. In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals. But, today, a university (大学) girl or a woman in the business world will usually pay her way during the date. If a man asks her to dinner, outside the working hours, it means “come as my guest (客人)”. So as you can see, it is a polite thing to make the question clear at the very beginning (开始).
(1) In the old days ________ often paid for all the meals.
[ ]
(2) “To go Dutch” means to ________.
[ ]
A．go to play outside
B．eat out
C．pay for oneself
D．go to a cheaper eating-place
(3) “McDonald's” here means ________.
[ ]
(4) If you feel friendly to the person, ________.
[ ]
A．you should pay for him
B．you needn't pay for him
C．you can accept his invitation
D．you can't accept (接受) his invitation (邀请)
(5) We'd better know who will pay for the meal ________.
[ ]
A．at the beginning
B．at the end
C．in the middle of the meal
D．after drinking
解析：
|
(1) 点拨：第三段中“American women wanted men to pay for...”。 (2) 点拨：第二段的第一句话“...each person pays for himself”。 (3) 点拨：第一段讲的是“eating out”时，“Who pays for the meal.”因此可推出“McDonald's”是“a place for eating”。 (4) 点拨：相应的句子“you can go with him and you needn't pay for the meal”与C意思接近。 (5) 点拨：短文最后一句话可知。 |
