【答案】

【5】A
【解析】
知道如何在一些场合向别人道别是很重要的社交技能,本文就此给出了一些建议。
【1】F 上文提到“学习适时地说再见是一种技巧”,下文提到“继续读下去学习识别机会当你离开的时候”,此处选择F项“有时候做起来可能比看起来更容易些”承接上下文。
【2】 C 本段主要建议我们要识别出说再见的最佳时机,故此处选择C项“意识到何时可以离开”概括本段主旨。
【3】 D 本段主旨句为“要留意肢体语言”,下文提到几种不同的肢体语言所代表的意义,故此处选择D项“所以尽力要注意肢体信号”承接上下文。
【4】G 结合本段主旨句Make plans to see each other again.可知,此处选择G项“如果你还没有制定计划,就利用这次机会制定再次见面的计划”符合语境。
【5】 A 上文提到很多人渴望编造一个好的离开的理由,而本段的主旨句是“讲真话”,下文提到如果你想离开,只要说“我要离开了,再见”即可,故此处选择A项“你其实没有必要这样做”符合上下文语境。
