                WHEN ARE YOU AN ADULT?
  Many countries have ceremonies to celebrate their young people becoming adults. However, some countries do not. Instead, young people think of themselves as adults when they can do “adults” things. But when do you become an adult in the U.S.A.? Let’s look at what some American teenagers say.
  Sam: I think you are an adult at 18. That’s when you can vote. You can help to choose who runs the state and the whole country. That’s grown up! My grandfather couldn’t vote until he was 21. They only change it to 18 in 1971. I guess they think we are more responsible at 18 now.
  Jenny: I think it’s hard to choose. I get to drive a car at 16, don’t I? That’s a serious responsibility. When you have a driver’s license you show it to people to prove your age for all kinds of things. So that must be the age when you change from a young person to an adult. Because you have to prove you are that age and not a kid.
  Suzie: I think there is something crazy about American laws about when young people can do things. So I can vote at 18 and drive at 16. So you would think that 18 is grown up, even if 16 isn’t. But then I can’t drink alcohol until I’m 21! If I’m an adult at 21, how can people stop me buying a can of beer in a shop?
  vote: 选举
  43. Which of the following is TRUE?
  A. You can’t vote until 21.
  B. You can drive a car at 18.
  C. You can’t drink until 16.
  D. You can buy beers before 21.

  44. Sam thinks “grown up” means __________.
  A. you can help to choose the president and governors
  B. you can drink alcohol
  C. you are responsible for all things you do
  D. you can drive a car

  "How are you?" is a nice question. It's a friendly way that people in the
U.S.A greet each other. But "How are you?" is also a very unusual question. It's a
question that often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks "How are you?"
hopes to hear the answer"Fine", even if the person's friend isn't fine.The reason
is that "How are you?" isn't really a question and "Fine"isn't really an answer.
They are simply other ways of saying"Hello"or "Hi".
  Sometimes, people also don't say exactly what they mean. For example,
when someone Asks "Do you agree?", the other person might think, "No, I
disagree. I think you're Wrong..."But it isn't very polite to disagree so strongly,
so the other person might say"I'm not sure." It's a nicer way to say that you don't
agree with someone.
  People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking
with other people.For example, many talks over the phone finish when one
person say "I've to go now."Often,the person who wants to hang up gives and
excuse:"Someone's at the door.""Something is burning on the stove."The excuses
might be real,or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't
want to talk any more,but it isn't polite to say that. The excuse is more polite,and
it doesn't hurt the other person.
  Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, of finishing a
talk, people don't say exactly that they are thinking. It's an important way that
people try to be nice to each other, and it's part of the game of language.
1. When a person in America asks"How are you?", he or she wants to hear
"        "
