Answer 1

【答案】

【2】G

【3】F

【4】A

【5】E

【解析】

【语篇解读】本文属于说明文，主要谈论的人们在生活和工作个方面都要注意文明礼仪以及有礼貌的好处。

【小题1】横线前两句叙述的是没有礼貌的人生活和工作都不会成功，再根据横线后两句They are liked and supported. They have friends, luck and success.中的they应该是指有礼貌的人，所以本句使用B项＂People with good manners are accepted.＂对有礼貌的人和没有礼貌的人进行前后对比。

【小题2】根据本段第一句Be polite to everyone you meet.可知本段主要讲述的人我们对所遇见的人要有客气，所选答案必须是与polite相关的句子，只有G项＂You will never regret being polite, but you might regret being rude.＂是在叙述polite的好处，故G项符合本段中心思想。

【小题3】根据横线前一句Do not interrupt people.(不要打断别人)可知在你说话的时候要知道对方是否愿意听你讲话，你有没有打断别人的发言，所以F项＂Make sure people are ready to listen to you before you start talking.＂符合上下文串联。

【小题4】根据横线后一句Cutting in front of other cars only gains you a few seconds of time.(插到其他汽车前面只会给你节省几秒钟的时间)说明本段是关于开车的礼仪，故A项＂Use good manners when driving.开车时要有礼貌＂与上下文一致。

【小题5】根据横线前一句A good sense of humor shows good manners.(好的幽默感说明有礼貌)可知本句应该与上句相一致，谈论的都是与幽默有关的话题。选项中只有E项＂Tell jokes or pass on humorous stories that everyone will enjoy.＂是与幽默有关的，所以E项符合前后串联。
