If a Chinese comes to England and wants to drive his car there, he must know the English rules of the road and the English traffic signs．One rule is that he must always drive on the left．Another rule is that he mustn’t drive faster than thirty mph through town and villages．If he does not pay attention to this speed limit, the police will soon be after him．The third rule is that cars on the main road have right of way．It is not easy to drive in London, because the traffic is so busy and buses and trucks sometimes block the roads．It is much less difficult to find your way if you go by one of the red buses or the underground．There are bus stops at every street corner．And if you cannot find one, ask a policeman．He will help you at once．

　　This topic is about greeting in China．A few years ago, people would greet each other with the words “Have you had your breakfast or lunch or supper?” “Yes, how about you?” Then politely, both would leave with a smile on their faces．

　　This kind of greeting tells us what people cared about many years ago．For many years, having enough to eat was the most important thing for the Chinese people．The life of most people in China has become much better now．They do not worry about their food and clothing any more．The greeting has changed to “What are you going to do?” or “Where are you going?”

　　Though the greeting has no other meaning than saying hello, it often puzzles other people who are not familiar with China．Nowadays, more and more people are using “How are you?” to greet each other．It is certainly the best way for people to say hello to each other．

18．What did people mostly care about many years ago?

A．Are you full or hungry?

B．Where are you going?

C．Good manners．

19．What does the change of greetings in China show?

A．People are less polite to each other．

B．People have bad manners now．

C．People’s life is better．

20．Which is the best way for people to say hello to each other?

Marie and Michael had been dating for some time, and felt fortunate that even though they had different jobs, they were able to talk with each other through their work almost every day. Michael is a police officer, and Marie is a “911” dispatcher（调度员）, both working for the same police department.

One day, Marie received a call from Michael who said he was out on the road in his patrol car.

“Marie, would you do me a favor?”

“Sure,” Marie answered, happy to have an excuse to talk to him.

“Could you check a license plate for me? I need to see if this guy has any unpaid warrants（罚单）.” Michael explained.

“Okay, spell it for me.”

Michael phonetically spelled out the license plate, using code names, as all police officers do, so Marie would be sure to get the right letter:

William Ida Lincoln Lincoln

Young Ocean Union

Mary Adam Robert Robert Young

Mary Edward

As she did hundreds of times a day, Marie wrote down the letters on a piece of paper, typed them into her computer, and started to run the license check. At first, she was puzzled. This license plate number was too long,even for a personalized plate. Her coworkers, who were in on Michael’s “plan”, finally had to say, “Marie, what do those letters spell?”

This time, Marie read just the first letters of each word out loud:W-I-L-L Y-O-U M-A-R-R-Y M-E?

With a cry of joy, Marie was all smiles as she got back on the phone to Michael, who was obviously not following any imaginary “driver” with the fictitious plates but was anxiously waiting in his patrol car for her response.

“Michael, are you there?” Marie began. “Yes, Marie?” he responded, his voice cracking a bit with nervousness.

“My answer is: yes!”

There was no “copping out”（回避） on this proposal!

56．Michael asked Marie to check a license plate for him because .

A．he was too busy to check out the identity of the driver himself

B．he wanted to ask her to marry him in this way

C．Michael needed the information urgently

D．Michael didn’t have access to a computer at that time

57．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A．Marie didn’t find the meaning of the letters at first.

B．Michael had difficulty in finding the owner of the license plate.

C．Marie’s co – workers intended to play a joke on her.

D．Michael was asking Marie for help.

58．We can learn from the passage .

A．Marie found the owner of the plate with the help of her coworkers

B．Michael was following a suspicious driver that day

C．Marie was not good at license check

D．Marie understood Michael’s intention at last

59．The underlined word “proposal” in the last paragraph probably means .

A．suggestion B．marriage offer C．plan D．purpose
