(10 points)Passage 1 Keep your elbows off the table. Dont eat or drink noisily. Say “please.” Most of us have heard our parents say these phrases many times. Did our parents simply enjoy enforcing these rules, or do good manners actually have a purpose in life? As we grow, manners, or the socially correct way of acting, become more and more important. Good manners are necessary in business, social, and family situations. In the work place, good manners can make the difference between getting a job and staying unemployed. When calling to set up an interview, one should be polite and professional to the person answering the phone. Arriving at the interview on time and well dressed is another way to impress the boss. Wearing jeans or shorts is not appropriate. Several days after the interview it is polite to send a letter thanking the interviewer for his or her time. Having good manners like these will impress people in business situations, and can increase ones success. Manners are also important in social situations. When a friend calls with a party invitation, one should check the date and either accept or decline. Responding promptly to an invitation is an example of good social manners. When attending the party, one should not bring along people who werent invited. A guest who shows up with five or six uninvited people will probably embarrass the host. When you leave the party it is polite to thank the host and ask if he needs any help cleaning up. Friends feel appreciated when they are treated this way. It is easy to forget about good manners with family members, but manners become very important when people live together. We can be considerate to relatives by remembering to relay phone messages. It can be upsetting when messages are forgotten or written down wrong. Another problem can result from borrowing things without asking or returning them. One should always ask permission to borrow something, like clothes or even toothpaste. Being polite and returning borrowed things quickly will keep family members happy. Another way to respect family members is to knock on the door before entering a room because everyone appreciates having privacy. This type of behavior will improve relationships and keep the house peaceful. Many people believe that having good manners is not important, or is an old-fashioned way of behaving. However, parents realize that manners are important and they teach their children how to be polite so they can achieve many things. Although sitting up straight and remembering to say “thank you” may seem like a lot of trouble, having good manners will keep employers, friends, and family members happy. 51. Which of the following statements best summarises the second paragraph?A. Wearing suitable clothes to a job interview is important. B. To impress the interviewer, you must be punctual. C. Good manners may help you secure a job. D. Your success in business depends on good manners. 52. Which of the following is considered bad manners when you are invited to a party?A. Telling the host whether you accept the invitation. B. Bringing with you people the host has not invited. C. Expressing how you enjoyed the party. D. Offering to help with the cleaning up. 53. It is implied in the fourth paragraph that when people live togetherA. they should respect each others privacy. B. they shouldnt keep borrowed things too long. C. they shouldnt borrow each others toothpaste. D. they should write down phone messages for each other. 54. The writer of the article believes thatA. parents no longer insist that children should be polite. B. saying “thank you” is too much trouble. C. only old people say “thank you”. D. people benefit from being polite. 55. The best title for this passage is A. What Good Manners Mean. B. How to Become a Courteous Person. C. The Importance of Good Manners. D. Courtesy in Society. Passage 2 One hot summer day, a young couple and their four-year-old daughter Emily were on their way to the mountains for a few weeks vacation. Suddenly, a truck in the oncoming lane collided head-on with the familys car. The three of them were seriously injured and immediately taken to the nearest hospital, where Emily was brought to the childrens ward and her parents were taken to the intensive care unit. As could well be imagined, Emily was not only in great pain, but she was also very frightened because her parents were not nearby to give her comfort. Martha, the nurse who was assigned to Emily, was a single, middle-aged woman. She understood Emilys feelings of fear and insecurity and became very devoted to her. When Martha finished her shift, instead of going home, she would volunteer to stay with Emily at night. Emily grew very fond of her and depended on her for her every need. Martha brought her cookies, picture books and toys. She sang songs to her and told her countless stories. As soon as Emily could be moved, Martha took her to visit her parents in a wheelchair every day. After months of hospitalization, the family was let out. Before they left the hospital, the parents blessed Martha for her devoted and loving care and invited her to visit them. Emily would not let ho of Martha, and insisted that she come to live with them. Martha also did not want to be parted from her little Emily, but her life was in the childrens ward of the hospital, and she could not think of leaving. There was a tearful parting as Emily and the loving nurse said good-bye to each other. For a few months the family kept up a close relationship with Martha through phone calls only, since they lived quite a distance away. When they moved abroad, however, they lost contact with each other. Over thirty years passed. One winter Martha, who was now in her seventies, became seriously ill and was hospitalized in a hospital near her home. A nurse noticed that Martha had very few visitors. She gave the elderly lady special care. One night when the nurse was sitting near her patient and they were chatting quietly, she confided in her as to what and prompted her to become a nurse. When she was four years old, she explained, she and her parents had been injured in an automobile accident; there had been a wonderful nurse who had brought her back to health with her loving, caring devotion. When she grew up, she determined that one day she, too, would become a nurse and help others from the young to the old just as that nurse had done for her. After she graduated from a nursing school overseas, she met a young man from America, and when they married, they moved to the States. A few months earlier hey had moved to this city, where her husband had been offered a very good job, and she was happy to get a position as a nurse in this hospital. As the nurse
