【题目】 "How are you?" is a nice question. It's a friendly greeting that people in the United States use. 1 It's a question that often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks, "How are you?" expects to hear the answer "Fine," even if the person isn't fine. The reason is that "How are you?" isn't really a question and "Fine" isn't really an answer. 2

3 For example, when someone asks "Do you agree?" the other person may be thinking, "No, I don't. I think you are wrong." It isn't polite to disagree very strongly, so he might say, "I am not so sure." This is a nice way to say that you don't agree with someone.

People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says, "I've got to go now," or the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse such as "Someone is at door," or "Something is burning on the stove." 4 The person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say so. An excuse is polite, and it doesn't hurt the other person's feelings.

Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an opinion, or ending a conversation, people often don't say exactly what they are thinking. 5 and it's part of the game of language.

A.Sometimes, people don't say exactly what they mean.

B.It's very good not to tell the truth to our family.

C.However, "How are you?" is also an unusual question.

D.The excuse may be real, or not.

E.They are simply other ways of saying "hello" or "hi".

F.If you disagree with others, they will hate you.

G.It is an important way people try to be nice to each other

【题目】 The first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971 in downtown Seattle, Washington, D. C., in the United States. It was a small coffee shop that roasted its own coffee beans. The coffee shop's business did well, and by 1981 there were three more Starbucks shops in Seattle.

Things really began to change for the company in 1981. That year, Howard Schultz met the three men who ran Starbucks. Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment. He noticed that Starbucks ordered a large number of special coffee makers and he was curious about the company. Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did, and he liked what he saw. He wanted to become part of the company. In 1982, the original (原先的)Starbucks owners hired Schultz as the company's head of marketing.

In 1983, Schultz travelled to Italy. The unique atmosphere of the coffee bars there caught his eye. To Schultz it seemed that Italians spent their daily lives in three places: home, workplace, and coffee bar. His experience in Italy gave Schultz a new idea for Starbucks back in Seattle.

Schultz created an atmosphere for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable, and customers everywhere seemed to like it. Between 1987 and 1992, Starbucks opened 150 new shops—and that was only the beginning. In fact, by the year 2000, three new Starbucks shops opened somewhere around the world every day!

Today, Starbucks has thousands of stores, including stores in twenty-six countries. One thing that helps make Starbucks succeed in cities outside the United States is the way Starbucks works with local stores and restaurants. By working together with a store already in the city, Starbucks gets an understanding of customers in the city. This understanding helps Starbucks open stores in the right locations for their customers.
