  An important question about eating out is who pays for the meal.If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you might simply say something like this, “I'm afraid I'll have to find a cheap place because I don't have 1)________ ________.” The other person may say, "OK., I'll meet you at McDonald's."This means that the two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself.He may also say, "Oh, no.I want to take you to lunch at Johnson's ", or "I want you to try the steak(牛排)there.It's great."This means the person wants to pay for both of you.If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him, and you needn't pay for the meal.You may simply say, "Thank you.That would be very nice."

  American customs(习俗)about who pays for a date(约会)are much the same as those in other parts of the world.3) In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals.But, today, a woman who is a university(大学)student or is working in the business world will usually pay her own way during the date.If a man asks her to dinner, outside the normal working hours ,it means "come as my guest(客人)." So you can see it is better for you to make the question clear at the very beginning.

1.将1)处填上适当的词,使句意完整:________ ________

2.回答问题:What does ‘to go Dutch' mean ? ________.

3.将划线的句子译成中文:________

4.找出文中与下列句子意思相近的句子

So you can see you'd better make the question clear at the start.

  Anne Holland’s speech

  Dear Students

  I’m very happy to be your guest speaker today.It is a great pleasure to visit your school and to meet all of you.

  I would like to tell you about myself.I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years.I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons.The work is sometimes difficult.I have seen famines(饥荒), wars, earthquakes(地震), poverty and death.But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.

  In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children.Some were as

  young as four years old.They lived by begging(乞讨)or stealing.But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them.Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children.She clothed them, fed them and taught them.She gave them hope.

  Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake.In one place, I found an old lady whose house was in ruins(成为废墟).Her son was missing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive.But the old lady did not give up hope.For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself.She did not stop until she found her son.He was alive.

  Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious medical condition.He had undergone twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital.I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.

  In life, we need role models that we can admire(崇拜)and learn from.When my life is difficult, I try to remember the courage and goodness of these three people.

1.How long has Anne Holland been a news reporter?

2.What did Rosa do for the children?

3.Was the old lady’s son saved?

4.In which country did Anne Holland give this speech?

5.What lesson do you think Anne Holland learnt from these three people?
