4.The Lost Rules of Etiquette
    Etiquette,or good manners,used to be the glue that held society together.(36)DSadly,these days it has mostly gone by the wayside.This list is several best rules of etiquette that have now disappeared.
  Opening the Door
  In days gone by,a gentleman would always open doors for ladies.(37)FThis has now almost entirely disappeared-and it is not entirely the fault of the men.I have seen women laugh at men for opening a door for them.They seem to be confusing manners with chauvinism(大男子主义).
    Writing Thank-You Notes
    In days gone by,whenever a person received a gift,they would write a thank-you note as soon as possible.(38)EParents would sit children down after a birthday or Christmas and coach them in their first thank-you note.It is a shame that gift giving has now become a virtual obligation and the idea of a thank-you note would be laughed at.
(39)B   We seem to have completely lost the concept of correct timing when it comes to parties these days.(40)C After all,a party normally has a guest of honor-this is usually the oldest woman present.It was considered extremely rude in the past to leave a party before the guest of honor-and once the guest of honor left,it was a signal to all that they should begin their own preparations to leave.
A.Arriving on Time.
B.Leaving at the Right Time.
C.People leave with various excuses.
D.It enabled people to get on well with each other.
E.This rule was true even if the giver was a relative.
F.It could be the lady they were driving,or a stranger.
G.We've thrown away the concept of a guest of honor at will.

分析 本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章向我们介绍了一些过去的礼仪规则,礼节礼貌曾经是社会的粘合剂,但如今已经几乎被荒废了,因此作者在这篇文章中提醒我们不要忘记过去的这些礼节.

解答 36.D    本题考查前后句子的联系,根据前文Etiquette,or good manners,used to be the glue that held society together.可知礼仪,或良好的礼仪习惯,是维系社会的粘合剂,后文应该介绍它的功能作用,故选D.
37.F    本题考查前后句子的联系,根据前文In days gone by,a gentleman would always open doors for ladies.可知在过去绅士总是会为女士开门,后文应该介绍这些女士与他们的关系,故选F.
38.E    本题考查前后句子的联系,根据前文In days gone by,whenever a person received a gift,they would write a thank-you note as soon as possible.可知在过去的日子里,如果有人收到了一份礼物,他们会尽快的写一封感谢信,这是一个惯例,故选E.
39.B    本题考查前后句子的联系,根据后文We seem to have completely lost the concept of correct timing when it comes to parties these days.可知本段主要讲述了
我们似乎已经完全失去了正确的时机的概念,因此本段的标题应为在正确的时间离开,故选B.
40.C    本题考查前后句子的联系,根据后文It was considered extremely rude in the past to leave a party before the guest of honor-and once the guest of honor left,it was a signal to all that they should begin their own preparations to leave.可知人们会以各种借口离开,故选C.

点评 七选五阅读是完成性阅读,和完形填空很类似,不同的是一个选词,一个选句子.解题时,要注意上下文语境,充分考虑信息词(选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词),选出最符合语境的句子.
