根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多途选项。
1 If you agree to meet friends at three o'clock, you can bet that they'll be there just after three.Since Britons(英国人)are so time conscious, the pace of life may seem very rushed.In Britain, people make great effort to arrive on time. 2 If you are unable to keep an appointment, it is expected that you call the person you are meeting.
"Drop in anytime" and ''come see me soon" are idioms often used in social settings but seldom meant to be taken literally.It is wise to telephone before visiting someone at home.If you receive a written invitation to an event that says "RSVP", you should respond to let the person who sent the invitation know whether or not you plan to attend. 3 You may refuse by saying, "Thank you for inviting me, but I will not be able to come." If, after accepting, you are unable to attend, be sure to tell those expecting you as far in advance as possible that you will not be there.
When you accept a dinner invitation, tell your host if you have any dietary restrictions.
4 The evening meal is the main meal of the day in most parts of Britain.Food may be served in one of several ways:"family style", by passing the serving plates from one to another around the dining table; "buffet style", with guests serving themselves at the buffet; and "serving style," with the host filling each plate and passing it to each person. 5 Food is eaten with a knife and fork and dessert with a spoon and fork.
A.He or she will want to plan a meal that you can enjoy.

Over the past ten years, we have made some big steps forward in our common struggle for development, security and human rights. Aid and debt relief have increased, making the world economy somewhat fairer. At last, the world is taking action against HIV/AIDS. There are fewer wars between countries than there used to be; and many civil wars have ended. More Governments are elected by, and responsible for, the people whom they govern. And all States protect people from war crimes, racial cleansing and crimes against humanity.
But there is so much that still needs doing. The gap between rich and poor continues to grow. Many people still face serious crime, discrimination, and racial conflict. Nuclear weapons require urgent attention. Terrorism, and the reaction to it, is spreading fear and suspicion. It seems that we don't even agree which threats are most important. Those who live on small islands may see global warming as the biggest danger. Those who live in a city that has suffered terrorist attacks, like New York, or Mumbai, or Istanbul, may feel that fighting against terrorism is more urgent. Others again may cite poverty, disease, or genocide. The truth is, these are all global threats. All of us should be concerned about all of them. Otherwise, we may" not succeed in dealing with any of them.
At this time of all times, we cannot afford to be divided. I know that you, the peoples of the world, understand this. Thank you for all the support and encouragement you have given me throughout these ten difficult but exciting years.
Please urge your leaders to work with my successor, and make the United Nations ever stronger and more effective.
Long live our planet and its peoples. Long live the United Nations!
