Question

【题目】阅读下面短文，从每小题A、B、C三个选项中，选出最佳选项。
B
If you ask me to tell how to get along in the United States, I think the following “do's” and “don'ts” would be helpful.
Generally speaking, it isn't easy to find anyone to talk to in a busy city, so you should try to do the following. First, get or borrow a dog! Walk him several times a day! Americans love dogs and cats and usually stop to talk to anyone with a dog. Then, try to eat in a restaurant. People generally share the same table and will sometimes talk to you if they see you are new there. Next, take your dirty clothes to a laundry(洗衣店)! It takes about an hour to wash and dry them and people there often pass the time talking with each other. Always ask for information from a woman if you are a man, and from a man, if you are a woman! Learn to say, “Please” “Thank you” and “You're welcome” and use them all the time!
There are some things you shouldn't do. Don't tell the truth when people ask, “How are you?” The only answer they want is “Fine”. Never ask people their age—especially(尤其) women! Everyone wants to be young. Don't tell heavy people they are fat. Tell them they are losing weight. Everyone wants to be thin. Don't be late when meeting people! When someone says six o'clock, be sure to be there by six. Americans respect time and want everyone to be “on time”.
