Most British people have four or five weeks paid holiday a year. Americans often complain that two weeks are not enough, especially when they hear about the longer holidays that Europeans enjoy. In addition, there are eight days in each European country, which are public holidays (the British call them Bank Holidays) and many of these fall on a Monday, giving people a long weekend.What do people do in Britain and the US when they are on holidays? In the US, outdoor vacations are popular, for example, at the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone or other national parks and forests. Young people may go walking or camping in the mountains. Many people have small trailers in which to travel, or if they have a car, they may stay at motels on the journey. Disneyland and Disneyworld are also popular. In addition, people can go skiing in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, Wyoming and Montana. Some children go to summer camp for a holiday during the summer vacation from school, where they do special activities, such as sports or crafts. When Americans want a holiday for fun in the sun, they usually go to Florida, Hawaii, Mexico or the Caribbean. They may go to Europe for culture, for example, to see art, plays, and places of historic interest.In Britain, many people like to go to the seaside for holidays. There are places near the sea, such as Blackpool, Scarborough and Bournemouth, where there is plenty to do, even when it rains. People also like to go to the countryside, especially to walk, in places like Scotland, Wales and the Lake District. When the British go abroad they usually want to go somewhere warm. Spain and the Spanish islands of Majorca and Ibiza are popular, as are other places in southern Europe. For skiing, people often go to the Alps.Passage IIWelcoming the New YearEvery country in the world celebrates New Year but not everyone does it on the same day. The countries of North and South America and Europe welcome the New Year on January 1. This practice began with the Romans. Julius Caesar, a Roman ruler, changed the date of the New Year from the first day of March to the first day of January. In the Middle East, New Year is on the day when spring begins. People in China celebrate it on the Spring Festival, which is the first day of their lunar calendar. The Spring Festival usually comes between January 21 and February 19. Rosh Hashana, which is the Jewish New Year, comes at the end of summer.In all of these cultures, there is a tradition of making noise. People made noise in ancient times to drive away the evil spirits from home. Today many people do it with fireworks. In Japan, people go from house to house making noise with drums and bamboo sticks. Young people in Denmark throw broken pieces of jars or pots against the sides of friends' houses.In the United States, many people stay up until midnight on New Year's Eve to watch the clock pass from one year to the next. Friends often gather together at a party on New Year's Eve, and when the New Year comes, all ring bells, blow horns, blow whistles, and kiss each other.In many European countries, families start the new year by first attending church service, which is followed by paying calls to friends and relatives. Italian boys and girls receive gifts of money on New Year's Day.New Year's Day is more joyful than Christmas in France and Scotland, In these countries Christmas is a religious holiday only, while the New Year is the time for gift-giving, parties, and visits.Passage IIIThe Spring FestivalThe Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chinese. It comes on the first day of the first month according to Chinese lunar calendar. It marks the beginning of a new year. It's also an occasion for family reunion. Family members and relatives get together to say goodbye to the old year and greet the new one. Guonian means "passing the year." People start preparing for it half a month before it comes. They clean their houses thoroughly, decorate them and even paint them; they buy new clothes for children, and they prepare food for the big feast on the eve of the festival. On the eve of the festival, the whole extended family comes together for a big dinner. Dumplings are a must for this festival dinner in northern China, while for southerners niangao —a sticky sweet rice pudding —is the traditional food for this occasion. People stay up until midnight chatting, playing mah-jong or watching TV. At the turn of the old and the New Year, people used to let off firecrackers to greet the arrival of the New Year. In the old days people believed setting off firecrackers could drive away the evil spirits. But now, people make phone calls or send messages on mobile phones to exchange New Year's greetings. Early in the morning, children greet their parents and are given Hongbao —cash tucked inside red envelopes. The Lantern Festival, on the 15th of the first month according to the lunar calendar, is considered the formal end of the Spring Festival. It is an occasion of lantern displays and folk dances everywhere.One typical food is Yuanxiao — dumplings made of sweet rice rolled into balls with all sorts of filling. The Spring Festival is a national holiday. For most people, it lasts seven days. In the past, people stayed with their families at home. Few traveled during the holiday. Nowadays things have changed.Part C Speakingi. Reflection on the topic"Holiday" is an expression we are familiar with, but few of us have tried to know its origin when enjoying a holiday. Every country in the world has its holidays. Some of them are meaningless, such as those created by companies in order to sell their products, whereas others honor either people or events.A good case in point is the National Day in China. It honors the founding of a new China on October 1, 1949. The other example is Christmas, which is the annual festival celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ in Christendom on Dec. 25.ii. Question for discussion1. Name as many Chinese holidays as possible.2. Talk about one holiday you are familiar with: its origin, the way of celebrating it, etc.3. If you could create a new holiday, what person or event would it honor? Give the reasons. And in what way would you want people to celebrate it?iii. Useful sentences or paragraphs for answers to the questions2. The Spring Festival:The Spring Festival honors an unusual event. In ancient China, man,meaning "year", was believed to be fierce. A man-eating monster came out every year as winter ended and spring began. To keep the monster away, people gathered together, built bonfires, and threw dry bamboo sticks onto the fire. It was believed that the crackling of burning bamboo would drive the monster away. After the night passed and the new day arrived, people felt safe and then they brought out a great array of food to celebrate their victory over the monster. Gradually, the date of the festival was fixed and it became the Spring Festival.Chinese people have developed different activities to celebrate the first day of the Lunar New Year.☆People visit their relatives, neighbors and friends. The family gets together for reunion dinners.☆In the north of China, the typical food of the festival dinner is dumplings and in the south sticky rice puddings.☆Setting off fireworks is necessary.☆The way people celebrate it is now changing. Visiting libraries, bookstores, restaurants, health care centers, or traveling during the festival period, is becoming new ways of celebration.3. If I could create a new holiday, I would like to honor someone who has significantly changed our lives. That person would be Bill Gates. The name of the holiday would be "Bill Gates Day." ☆Bill Gates made computer operating systems user-friendly, thereby opening the door to hundreds of millions of untrained users. Before Bill invented Windows, we had to learn how to speak the computer's command language before we could operate it. It was a rather complicated job. Now, a computer is so easy to operate that even a child can use one.☆Before we had Windows, a computer could only use the programs created by the manufacturer of that computer. There were very few good programs available and most of them were written only for the very expensive brands. Now, with Windows, we can buy an incredible variety of great software programs for as little as $5 and they will run on any Windows computer.☆The way I would want people to celebrate "Bill Gates Day" would be to turn off their computers and stop using computers for 24 hours. It would be a wonderful way to experience what life used to be like before we had computers and it might also remind us of how dependent we are on computers today.。

He was the first Democratic president since Franklin D. Roosevelt to win a second term. He could point to the lowest unemployment rate in modern times, the lowest inflation in 30 years, the highest home ownership in the country's history, dropping crime rates in many places, and reduced welfare rolls. He proposed the first balanced budget in decades and achieved a budget surplus. As part of a plan to celebrate the millennium in 2000, Clinton called for a great national initiative to end racial discrimination. He sought legislation to upgrade education, to protect the jobs of parents who must care for sick children, to restrict handgun sales, and to strengthen environmental rules,President Clinton was born William Jefferson Blythe IV on August 19,1946, in Hope, Arkansas, three months after his father died in a traffic accident. When he was four years old, his mother wed Roger Clinton. In high school, he took the family name. He excelled as a student and as a saxophone player and once considered becoming a professional musician. As a delegate to Boys Nation while in high school, he met President John Kennedy in the White House Rose Garden. The encounter led him to enter a life of public service. Clinton graduated fromGeorgetown University and in 1968 won a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford University. He received a law degree from Yale University in 1973, and entered politics in Arkansas.Clinton was elected Arkansas Attorney General in 1976, and won the governorship in 1978. After losing a bid for a second term, he regained the office four years later, and served until he won the 1992 presidential race. In 1998, as a result of issues surrounding personal indiscretions with a young female White House intern, Clinton was the second U.S. president to be impeached by the House of Representatives. He was tried in the Senate and found not guilty of the charges brought against him. He apologized to the nation for his actions and continued to have unprecedented popular approval ratings as president.I1.Which of the following is NOT true considering Clinton's contributions during his administration?2. When did Clinton take his family name?3. What did Clinton once want to he before he entered politics?4. Who influenced Clinton and led him to enter a life of public service?5.

However, not many people know much about the life of this remarkable man, except that he was born in the market town of Stratford-upon-Avon. We know nothing of his school life and nothing certain is known of what he did between the time he left school and his departure for London. According to a local legend, he was apprenticed to a Stratford butcher, but did not like the life and for this reason decided to leave Stratford.Whatever caused him to leave the town of his birth, the world can be grateful that he did so. What is certain is that he set foot on the road to fame when he arrived in London. It is said that at first he was without money or friends there, that he earned a little by taking care of the horses of the gentlemen who attended the plays at the theater. In time, as he became a familiarfigure to the actors in the theater, they stopped and spoke to him. They found his conversation so brilliant that finally he was invited to join their company.Earlier than 1592 there was no mention of Shakespeare either as actor or as playwright, and the name of the theater he worked in was not known. However, by this date he had become one of the three leading members of a company of actors called the "Lord Chamberlain's Men",From what we know of his later life, it is clear that Shakespeare's connection with the theater made him a wealthy man, since his plays attracted large audiences and he shared in the profits. Towards the end of the sixteenth century he bought a large property in Stratford. It is not certain when he went back there to live, but it was probably around 1603. He is not recorded as having acted in any play after that date, though he continued writing. No less than eleven of his plays were produced during the next ten years.Shakespeare died in 1616. Some years earlier he chose a gravestone under which he was to be buried. He had a curse engraved on this stone which threatened to bring misfortune on anyone who might remove his body from his grave.I1. What does the speaker mainly talk about?2. Why did Shakespeare leave his native place according to alegend?3.Why was Shakespeare invited to join the gentlemen's company?4. What made Shakespeare a wealthy man?5. Why did Shakespeare have a curse engraved on hisgravestone?II1.he left school, his departure for London.2. set foot on the road to fame3. one of the three leading members4. continued writing, eleven of his plays5. Shakespeare diedPassage IIIMichael JordanSports fans all over the world recognize the name of Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan was born in 1963 in Brooklyn, New York. His road to fame began at the University of North Carolina. He brought an acrobatic style to the game that few hadseen before. Michael used his quickness and strength to reach the basket again and again. He became famous for his powerful slam-dunk. Basketball fans from all over the world began to take notice. One reporter wrote that when Michael went up to dunk the basketball, it looked like he could fly. He was given the nickname, "Air Jordan." In his sophomore season, Michael led his school to the national championship and was named to the All-American team.After college, Michael was drafted by the Chicago Bulls. The NBA was amazed at this high-flying scorer. Michael was named Rookie of the Year in 1988 and Most Valuable Player in 1987. He once set a record by scoring 63 points in one game. For seven straight seasons, he led the NBA in scoring. By 1990, he had become the most popular player in the game. As basketball's spokesman, he was featured on dozens of ads in magazines and on TV.One goal that Michael had not yet achieved was to be on an NBA championship team. In 1991, things finally came together for the Chicago Bulls, and they won the NBA championship. But Michael wasn't content with just one championship; he led the Bulls to three straight NBA titles! In just nine seasons, Michael Jordan accomplished more than any other player inNBA history.

Therefore, by improving their Englishproficiency, graduate students can expand their professional networks and gain a competitive edge in the job market.Moreover, mastering English can enhance graduate students' critical thinking and analytical skills. English plays a significant role in the development of these skills as it requires logical thinking and reasoning. The process of reading and analyzing English literature, conducting research, and writing academic papers in English all contribute to the cultivation of critical thinking abilities. This is especially important for graduate students who need to conduct independent research and solve complex problems in their chosen fields.In addition, having strong English language skills also improves graduate students' employability and career prospects. Many multinational companies and research institutions require candidates to demonstrate proficiency in English, as they operate internationally and have a global customer or client base. A high level of English proficiency can open doors to job opportunities, whether it be working for an international company or pursuing a career in academia. Moreover, English language proficiency is often seen as a reflection of one's work ethic, dedication, and professionalism.In conclusion, developing English language proficiency is essential for graduate students in the new century. It allows students to access academic resources, connect with scholars from around the world, enhance critical thinking skills, and improve employability. Therefore, graduate students should prioritize improving their English skills in order to thrive in the competitive globalized world.。

The first of these was the rapid growth of the technological and professional education to meet the urgent demands of a complex industrial and urban society. New schools of technology, engineering, architecture, law and medicine flourished. The second was the provision for graduate study, such as what had long existed in France and Germany. Harvard and John Hopkins Universities quickly took the lead in this field, but the state universities did not lag far behind. The third was the increased provision for the education of women. This included the establishment of new women's colleges, such as Vassar, Wellesley and Smith, and the adoption of co-education in all the new state universities outside the South as well as in many private institutions: Thesedevelopments, the growth of the technological and professional education, the provision for graduate study, and the increased educational opportunities for women began over acentury ago, well over thirteen decades since the end of the Civil War.Exercises with Key1.

Only10percent of the earth's land can be used for farming and another20percent for raising animals.It is possible to increase the amount of farmland,but only a little.Some land in developing countries could be more productive if people started using modern farming methods, but this would not increase worldwide production by much,We all know that there is a limited amount of petroleum.There are also limits to the amounts of metals.There is a limit to the amount of water we can use since most of the earth's water is salt water,and most of the fresh water is frozen at the North and South Poles.It is difficult to say how many people the earth can support,but it will help everyone if we can limit population growth before serious shortages develop.The problem is how to do it.1.Between1990and2000,what changes did the world population have?2.According to some scientists,which of the following is true?3.Why can't most of the earth's water be used?4.In developing countries,what does the use of medern farming methods result in?5.According to the author,what can you infer from the passage?II1.There were probably10million people.2.It is expected to be10billion.3.If the resources could be distributed more equally around the world,there would be enoueh for everyone.4.Only10percent.5.It is how to limit population growth.Passage II:Fresh water,life itself,has never come easy in the Middle East.Ever since the Old Testament when God punished man with40days and40nights of rain,water supplies here have been dwindling.The rainfall only comes in winter and drains quickly through the semiarid land, leaving the soil to bake and to thirst for next November.The region's accelerating population growth,expanding agriculture,industrialization,and higher living standards demand more fresh water.Drought and pollution limit its availability.War and mismanagement squander it.Nations like Israel and Jordan are swiftly sliding into that zone where they are using all the water resources available to them.They have only15to20years left before their agriculture,and ultimately their food security,is threatened.Even amid the scarcity there are haves and pared with the United States,which has a freshwater potential of10,000cubic meters a year for each citizen.Iraq has5,500.Turkey has 4,000,and Syria has little more than2,800.Egypt's potential is only1,100.Israel has460,and Jordan has less than260.But these are not firm figures,because upstream use of river water can dramatically alter the potential downstream.Scarcity is only one element of the Middle East’s water crisis.Inefficiency is another,as is the reluctance of some water-poor nations to change priorities from agriculture to less water-intensive enterprises.Some experts suggest that if these nations would share both water technology and resources,they could satisfy the region's population,currently159million.But in this patchwork of ethnic and religious rivalries,the water crisis is not a clear-cut issue.It is entangled in the politics that keep people from trusting and seeking help from one another.Here,where water,like truth,is precious,each nation tends to find its own water and supply its own truth.1.When does the rainfall come in the Middle East?2.What is the cause of the water crisis?3.How many years are left for Israel and Jordan before their agriculture is threatened?4.What is the current population in the Middle East according to the passage?5.According to some experts'suggestion,what should the nations do in order to avoid a water crisis?II1)10,0002)5,5003)4,0004)More than2,8005)Egypt6)4607)Less than260 Part D1)award,2)glory,3)profit,4)trust,5)dedication,6)significance,7)moment,8)anguish, 9)physical,10)spirit,11)conflict,12)alone,13)worth,14)room,15)heart,16)honor,17)compassion,18)curse,19)lust,20)valuePart D不管在什么地方，只要谈到美国文学，人们都认为威廉·福克纳是二十世纪最伟大的作家之一。

新世纪研究生英语euphemism
Euphemism1. Function for taboo.We have known that euphemism roots in the respectableness to gods in religion. Later on, euphemism spread to many aspects. When we say something about death and senescent变老的,显老的, birth and sex, pregnant and delivery, prostitute and seduction勾引、诱拐, sexual actions and sexual organs, we cannot say them out directly but only to use certain tactful words to instead. This kind of words has been used widely up to now. Today, people also created more taboo euphemism. We can mainly divided them into three sorts:1) Death and old ageSuch as “to pass away, to depart, to go to sleep, to go to heaven, to go to one’s last, to go to a better place, to be at rest, to be at peace, to be with God, to be inHeaven, to be with the angels, to take the easy way out, to lay down one’s life, the final summons: getting on (in years), past one’s age prime, feeling one’s age second childhood, senior, citizens, golden years, longer living, well preserved, seasoned experienced” and so on.2) Birth and sexual loveSuch as “to come into the world, delicate condition, taken ill., the lady-in-waiting, love-begotten, a love brat, business, action, love-making, balling the Jack, larks in the night, belly high, in one’s birthday suit, a chicken, a companion, to make eyes at, a street girl, the oldest profession” and so on.3) Diseases and disastersSuch as “social disease, a growth. Self-deliverance, Self-violence, old Newton took him, happy dispatch, to be blown across the creek and so on. There is no easy to ignore that taboo function ofeuphemism has a firm status in people’s mind. Even today, the Americans are dare to say “Friday” and the number thirteen! 2. Function for cove rAnother reason for using euphemism is that euphemism itself sometimes can be rather spurious and deceptive. Then this kind of character becomes a tool of some politicians and profiteers to cheat the society. They use euphemism to cover some evil incidents in our society. Such as scandal, war, crime, drug, racidism and decline. After the “Watergate” in America, the government created a lot of “plumbers”. This function of euphemism is also used widely in diplomacy and military.3. Function for politenessThe other function of euphemism is for polite. We try out best to use some tactful words to avoid the hurt to others and show our respectableness, politeness, andconsideration. In a civilized society, everyone needs to attach importance to politeness. In a way, the polite function of euphemism may be more important and useful in our daily life. If we want to fire somebody, we don’t use the word “fire” but use “discontinue”. “Professor” means “a person who teach in college”, but now we also call the bass or the magician “professor” to show respectableness. Polite euphemism is used in almost every aspect in our society. We can sum it up into the following four sorts:1). To old men and disabled peopl eWe often use “getting on (in years), past one’s prime, feeling one’s age, second children, golden years, senior citizens, longer living, well-preserved, seasoned, experienced” to express the meaning of “ole age, senility”; use “not all there, soft in the head, of unsound mind, simple-minded” to express “mad,feeble-minded”; use “a slow-learner, under-achiever” to express “a stupid pupil”; use “weight-watchers’ to express “fat people’.2). To the low class in the societyWe use “domestic help, day-help, live-in help” to express “maid, housekeeper”; use “captain, hostess” to express “hairdresser”; use “exterminating, engineer, pest control operator” to express “rat catcher”.3). To poverty and unemploymentWe use “discontinue, lay off, ease out, give the walking ticket, pink slip” to express “fire, sack, dismiss”; use “out of pocket, hard up, badly off, in reduced, circum-stanc e, in difficulties” to express “penniless, poor”; use “the have-nots, the underprivileged, the disadvantaged” to express “the poor; use “on relief, on welfare benefits” to express “living on dole”; use “welfare workers” to express “unemployed workers”.4). To indelicate thingsWe use “go to the bathroom, do one’s business, visit the necessary, answer nature’s call, wait a minute” to express “to urinate”; use “men’s, Gent’s, W.C (water closet), the washroom, the John” to express “Men’s lavatory”; use “Ladies’, the powder room, Women’s, Mrs. Jones” to express “Women’s lavatory”.The famous American writer Mencken called euphemism “gilded words” while Stephen Kanfer called it “cosmetic words”, these can be an exact explanation to the usage of euphemism. Managing this skill well could make our world full of gentle and fragrant atmosphere.英语euphemism（委婉语）意为good talk（说好听的或者善词令），指说话时避免直接提到让人尴尬，惹人讨厌的事物和行为，采取迂回含蓄的表达方法，可以用来保持良好的人际关系，促进言语交际的正常进行。

It's my roommate's doing.Q: What does the woman imply?Part BPassage I Marriage CustomsDespite the recent growth in the number of divorces, we in the West still tend to regard courtship and marriage as a romantic business. Boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl, boy asks girl to marry him, girl accepts. Wedding, flowers, big celebration.But in other parts of the world things work differently. In India, for instance, arranged marriage is still very common. An intermediary, usually a married lady, learns that a young man wishes to get married and she undertakes to find him a suitable bride. The young couple meet for the first time on the day of the wedding.In Japan, too, arranged marriages still take place. But there things are organized in a different way. A girl wishes to find a husband, and the girl's mother, or aunt perhaps, approaches the mother of a suitable young man and the young couple are introduced. They get a chance to have a look at one another and if one of them says, "Oh, no, I could never marry him or her", they call the whole thing off. But if they like one another, then the wedding goes ahead.In parts of Africa, a man is allowed to have several wives. Now that sounds fine from the man's point of view, but in fact the man is taking on great responsibility. When he takes a new wife and buys her a nice present, he has to buy all his other wives presents of equal value and, although we are obviously speaking of a male-dominated society, the wives often become very close and so, if there is a disagreement in the family, the husband has three or four wives to argue with instead of just one.It is true that American women have sometimes found it exceedingly difficult to assume the role of the wife of an African living in Africa. However, various forms of arranged marriage have just as much chance of bringing happiness to the husband and wife as our Western system of choosing marriage partners.1. What is implied in the passage?2. Who would be the intermediary of a young couple in India?3. In what way is the marriage custom of Japan similar to that of India?4. Which of the following is true according to the passage?5. What is not mentioned in the passage?ii.1.They regard courtship and marriage as a romantic business.2.On the day of their wedding.3.The whole thing would be called off.4.It is probable that all the wives might argue with the husband.5.He thinks that the various forms of arranged marriage can bring happiness to the husband and wife, too.PassageII Christmas in AmericaChristmas in America is a time of spreading good cheer. People give cards and gifts to each other. Families enjoy special visits and meals together. The smell of candy and spices fills the air. Christmas laughter warms the hearts of young and old alike. Christmas trees, colorful decorations and brightly-wrapped gifts bring an old song to mind: "It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas."It all began about 2,000 years ago. An angel appeared to a Jewish girl named Mary and gave her good news: "You will have a son. His name will be Jesus, the Savior." When the baby was almost due, Mary and her fiance Joseph went to their hometown, Bethlehem, for a census. The only place they could find to stay at was an animal stable. There the special baby was born.Angels announced the joyful news to some shepherds. They left their sheep and hurried to see the baby. Some time later, wise men from the East saw an unusual star. They knew someone great had been born. The star led them to Bethlehem. When they found the child Jesus, they offered him gifts for a king.The celebration of this special birth came to be called Christmas. Through the ages, people developed many Christmas traditions. The custom of decorating Christmas trees began centuries ago. People in many ancient cultures decorated homes with trees in winter. In the Middle Ages, Christians in Europe added lights and religious symbols to evergreens to make Christmas trees, Santa Claus has become one of the most famous Christmas figures, particularly in America. His legend started witha kind bishop named St. Nicholas who lived around 300 AD and was known for his generosity. The practice of giving Christmas gifts comes from the gifts offered to the child Jesus by the wise men from the East. The star on the top of the Christmas tree symbolizes the star that led the wise men to Jesus.Most Americans feel that Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. It's a time of excitement, a time of joy, a time to show love in special ways. Best of all, Christmas is not just for Americans. Christmas is for everybody in the world. Christmas is the celebration of the God's gift to the world Jesus,l. Who gave Jesus presents after his birth?2. How did the wise men find the child Jesus?3. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?4. When did the legend of Santa Claus start?5. Which is NOT true according to the passage?ii. Listen to the passage again and write T (true) or F (false) for each statement you have heard.1. ( T ) Christmas in America is a time of spreading good cheer.2. ( F ) Jesus was born in Mary's home.3. (T) In the wise men's opinion, the appearance of an unusual star symbolized the birth of someone great.4. ( T ) Christmas traditions have developed gradually through the ages.5. ( F ) The custom of decorating Christmas trees began in the Middle Ages. passageIII Western Table MannersPeople who go to a formal Western dinner party for the first time may be surprised by table manners in Western culture. Knowing them will tell you how to behave at table and help you make a good impression. Beside your napkin you will find a small plate for a bread roll and three glasses -- one for white wine, one for red one, and one for water. There are two knives and forks on the table, forks on the left and knives on the right of the plate. When you see two spoons, the big one is for the soup and the small one for the dessert. The knife and fork that are closest to your plate are a little bit bigger than the ones beside them. When you sit down at the table, you can take your napkin, unfold it, and put it on your lap. Dinner starts with a small dish, which is often called a starter. Some people pray before they start eating, and other people maykeep silent for a moment. Then you can say "bon appetit" to each other and everybody starts eating. For the starter, you will get a bowl of soup -- but only one bowl of soup and never ask for a second serving.The next dish is the main course. Some people use their fingers when they are eating chicken or other birds, but never touch beef or other meat on bones. It is polite to finish eating everything on your plate, so don't take more food than you need.At the table, you should try to speak quietly and smile a lot, but do not laugh all the time.Table manners follow the fashion of the day and are only important at formal dinner parties. If you are not sure about what to do, you can always follow your hosts. You don't need to worry about all these rules while having dinner with your friends.Part D1) sunny 2) Jobs3)Health care 4) social security 5) from the bottom 6) possibility 7) grateful 8) faith and trust 9) all of yo u 10) our notion. 11) progress 12) Republicans.13) beautiful 14) tallest skyscrapers 15) your schools, 16) shared with me 17) aging parents, 18) difference 19) support 20) gratitude.。
