     Saying "thank you" is probably the first thing most of us learn to do in a foreign language. After all,
we're brought up to be polite, and it is important to make a good impression upon other people-especially across national divides.
     So, what exactly are you supposed to say when "thank you" is only the 20th most popular way to
express gratitude? According to a recent survey, 19 other ways of expressing appreciation finished ahead of "thank you" in a poll of 3,000 people.
     Pollsters(民测调查员) found almost half of those asked preferred the more informal "cheers", while
others liked to use such expressions as "ta", "great" and "nice one".
     So, just what is the appropriate form of words to express your thanks?
     Fortunately, the clue is in the language itself. "Cheers", despite its popularity, is considered an
informal way to say thank you - and this is a definite clue as to when you can best use it.
     For instance, when going for a drink with friends, a smile and a "cheers" by way of thanks is not only
appropriate to the situation, it is also culturally accurate.
     "Ta", originated from the Danish word "tak", was the second-most popular expression of thanks, and
is also commonly used in informal situations, along with phrases such as "nice one", and "brilliant".
Interestingly, one word that didn't make it into the top 20 was "thanks", Thank you is shorter, more
informal cousin.
     "Thanks" can be useful, as it is able to bridge the divide between the formality of "thank you" and the
downright relaxed "cheers".
     Certain words can double as an expression of thanks as well as delight. Again, the words themselves
offer the clue as to when best to use them.
      For example, words like "awesome", "brilliant" and "you star" featured highly in the new poll and they
can hint at both your pleasure at someone's action, as well as serving to express your thanks. If you are
on the receiving end of a "new" thank you, you can respond with a simple "no problem", or "sure".
     Of course, in certain circumstances, a simple wave, nod or smile may be appropriate. For instance, if
a car driver slows down to let you cross the road, simply raising your hand in acknowledgement is enough to show that you appreciate the driver's consideration.
      Sometimes, formality is necessary, and "thank you" is still the best choice in such situations. But students should not worry about when exactly to use certain expressions.
     Many people in Western countries are worried that good manners are in decline. People are tired of
seeing their acts of kindness and service pass without comment. So don't think your "thank you" is clumsy or awkwardly formal. The chances are, if you said "thank you", you made someone's day. You star.

1.We can tell from the results of the poll that _______.
A. people are unconcerned about politeness nowadays.
B. "thank you" remains the best expression of gratitude.
C. there is a variety of expressions of appreciation.
D. there are more formal expressions than informal ones.
2. According to the passage, which is an appropriate response to "awesome" or "brilliant"?
A. Thanks.  
B. Sure.          
C. Nice one.       
D. Cheers..
3. In the last paragraph the author encourages people to           .
A. show their gratitude to others.
B. behave themselves well.
C. continue their acts of kindness.
D. stop worrying about bad manners.
4. Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage?
A. How to Appear More Polite.
B. Ways to Show Gratitude.
C. Never hesitate to Say "Thank You".
D. Good Manners in Decline!

Speak, speak, speak!
     Practise speaking as often as you can. Speaking to yourself is good practice.
Try recording yourself whenever you can.
     Compare your pronunciation with the master version(原版)to see how you can do better and have
another go. If you do this several times, you will find that each time is better than last.
Why not learn with someone else?
     It helps if you can learn with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or family member to study
with you, it will make you keep working.
Don't get stuck by a word you don't know.
     Practise improving ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously(本能地),even
if you don't know the exact words or phrases. Think of things you might want to say whenever you have
spare time. Use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to make yourself understood.
Language learning is also about intuition(直觉)．
     Guesswork is an important way to learn a new language. When listening to recorded material, you aren't expected to understand everything first time round. If you play the same piece several times, you will
most probably understand something new each time.
Build up your vocabulary.
     A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but don't try to learn too much at once.
It's best to study frequently, for short periods of time. Take at most six or seven items of vocabulary and
learn them. Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, and then come back to them later.
And above all, have fun!
