We had just finished thirteen miles of hiking in the snowy mountains. We were tired and our muscles  21   as we made our way back to New England.

When I heard that two seats in first class on our next flight were   22   for a small upgrade fee, I jumped at the  23  . We agreed to pay the fee to   24   our tickets. Our spirits lifted   immediately. At least we would  25  our adventure in comfort and style.

As we chatted away about hiking, waterfalls and bears, I could   30  people around us talking about busy schedules and business meetings. It wasn’t long   31  I realized that these people were   32  to flying in luxury. “They are important people,” I thought to myself.

As the stewardess walked by our   35 , I looked at her and said, “Thank you and I hope you have a great night.” She stopped at our seats with a look of   36   on her face, bent down, looked at me and said, “Excuse me?” I repeated my words and she smiled in a rather   37   way, almost as if I had asked her a question that she did not know how to answer.

“You are the only passenger here to say thank you or say something   38   to me tonight and I really appreciate your kindness.”

The   39  of belonging to an elite group of people in first class disappeared as we heard her words. Our seats in luxury offered us more than a comfortable ride. We were   40  that, without kindness, we would be flying in no class.

It is sometimes said that the English are polite people. This can make life difficult for foreigners. Suppose a foreign boy asks an English girl to go out with him and she says, “If I finish my work, I’ll meet you in the cafe at 7 o’clock.” Is she saying “yes” or “no” to his invitation?
In grammatical terms, she is using the conditional structure (表示条件的句式). By using the conditional, speakers of English can avoid giving a “yes” or “no” answer to a question. It enables people to be diplomatic (婉转的). If the girl doesn’t want to go out with the boy, she won’t turn up at the cafe. She will let him understand she is still working. If she wants to go out with him, but doesn’t want to appear too easy to catch, she has achieved that with her reply. But in this case, as she uses the first conditional which shows probability, she is quite likely to turn up at the cafe. Being polite can make life very difficult!
The conditional is often used by people in the news -- politicians, for example -- who wish to avoid speaking out their ideas. This is very important if they are on their way to discuss an agreement. No one wants to give away his or her points before he or she starts. A government spokesman might say to a group of workers, “If we could pay you more, we would.” The use of the conditional here makes room for argument although the speaker is using the second conditional form, which shows improbability. So it is unlikely the workers will get their rise.
“If ” is a small word, which appears often in the English language. It can show politeness, reported speech and conditionals such as the First -- probability -- if I can come to your party, I will; the Second -- improbability -- if I saw you tomorrow, I’d give you the book; and the Third -- impossibility (meaning it is too late to change something that has happened ) -- if you have told me, I would have helped you.
60. The using of the conditional can make a speech _________.
A. clearer        B. quicker             C. more polite        D.more exciting
61. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Language used in the news should make room to argue.
B. Usually English girls are not easy to catch.
