A
Have you ever thought about traveling to the U.K. or maybe studying there? If your answer is yes, then you should learn a thing or two about British etiquette. It will help to ensure that your behavior（行为举止）is always proper during your stay in Britain.
To begin with, people in the U.K. tend（趋向）to over-apologize. For example, someone has booked (预订) a seat on a train but finds that there is another person sitting in it. Who do you think will say sorry first? Well, you may hear the first person say, “I’m so sorry, but you seem to be sitting in my seat.”
Britons like receiving heartfelt（由衷的）apologies（道歉）as well as giving them. If you have upset someone, it is important to offer him or her a sincere apology. A half-hearted apology will not go down well. If someone has offered you an apology, then you should accept（接受）it. You can do this by saying “It’s
But if you don’t accept the apology, the situation will become worse.
In addition to “sorry”, “please” and “ thank you” are also quite common in British speech. When you are given the change in a store, for example, you should thank the cashier ( 收银员). If you are not saying “please” and “thank you” when you should, you may be told to “mind your p’s and q’s.” British people often find it embarrassing (令人尴尬的) to discuss money. Sometimes, talking about how much something costs is considered（视为）rude. If you are chatting with a Briton, it’s better to avoid having discussions about money.
When you are having a conversation with a Briton, also remember to put down your smartphone. It is especially rude if you use your phone when eating at the dinner table. In the U.K., dinner time is a time for talking with one’s fa mily or friends.
21.According to the first paragraph, is important when you are in the UK.
A.behaving properly
B.studying carefully
municating clearly
D.traveling freely
22.W hat does the underlined word “etiquette” mean?
A.知识
B.礼仪
C.传统
D.文明
23.What is the main idea of the second paragraph?
A.Britons like to receive sincere apologies.
B.Britons hardly ever over-apologize.
C.Britons like to say sorry even when it’s unnecessary.
D.It is very important to learn about etiquette.
24.According to the article, British people consider it rude to .
A. make a half-hearted apology
B. count change in a store
C. discuss the cost of something
D. talk with others in dinner
25.You most probably read this article in the “” part of a magazine.
A. ART
B. TRAVEL
C. HISTORY
D. BUSINESS
B
Now I know a lot of people are still in shock about the accident that happened in Seoul a few days ago.
When it comes to big crowd crush （踩踏事件), it is important for the government and the police to have effective（有效的）crowd and traffic control policies（政策). 26
密度). 27 If you can get out, you should get out. And once the crowd stops moving, you first should be to stay on your feet.
Keep your arms from being pinned（被压制）by your side. 28 It's important to keep your feet in a boxer-like stance（姿势）,with feet apart, one foot in front of the other and knees slightly bent (弯曲).
In this kind of crowd crush, shouting is a waste of energy and oxygen（氧气）. Stay calm and keep your head up for maximum air. If you drop your phone or any other thing, let it go. 29 And if you fall or trip, try your best to get on your feet；but if you can't, your odds of surviving(存活概率）are best if you go into a fetal position(婴儿姿势）on your left side and protect your head and your side.
Finally, we need to think about a question. 30 When one person falls, it can cause a dangerous crowd collapse（群集事故), basically a domino effect（多米诺骨牌效应). So if someone around you falls, do your best to help them up, it might not just help their chances（机会），but your chances as well. According to experts, a crowd crush isn't a battle. It's in everyone's interest, for everyone has the chance to live.
根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺、内容完整。

A.Is it safe to help others during a crowd event if you're already struggling(挣扎) yourself？
B.But what can we do and what should we do if we are stuck (卡住) in a crowd crush？
C.Put your arms in front of you, protect your chest (胸腔).
D.Once you bend down to pick something up, you’re unlikely to get back up.
E.If we find it difficult to even move our hands, then it is already very dangerous.
