I don’t know why, but sitting in the car, we always talk more than ________.
There was one rainy day when my mom told me something that is going to ________ me forever. Earlier that day she and my dad had been ________ about something; I can’t remember what. So she said, “Don’t spend your life looking for Prince Charming. ________, find yourself a really good frog.” At the time, I found this thought really ________. Who wants to think that you’ll never find Prince Charming? Another thought that ________ my mind: if my mom says there’s no Prince Charming, then what’s my dad? A frog?

Life in the summertime is often full of pests. Like most Long Island homeowners, I want to ensure my suburban life with pest-free living. So it was with wide-eyed wonder that I greeted the smiling exterminator (灭虫者) who rang my bell.
“We’ll be serving your neighbors, Mike and Sarah (I’m not familiar with either one by name),” he waved in the other direction. “Since we’ll have a team here tomorrow, we’re offering a discount.” He came out with numbers beginning from $299 then in seconds to $89.
“You’ve probably been seeing the ant hills around.” he moved toward my front walkway and lawn. “And have you seen the bees that dig nests in the ground?” he continued with his head shaking up and down pushing me to do the same.
“What we do is spray three feet out from your foundation and three feet up.” As he was talking, and without breaking eye contact, he opened his iPad cover and began operating at the screen to show me frightening images. “It also kills other pests, like spiders. It is the best pesticide (杀虫剂),” he said, pausing for effect.
He then went into soft talk to close the deal, correctly foreseeing that I would be concerned about safety and the environmental impact on my vegetable garden, plants and our little patch of planet here on Long Island. “The products are environmentally responsible, safe with children and pets,” he said.
I’m unkind when it comes to unwanted visitors entering on my out-of-doors moments. Any insect found in my house or on my deck is bound to be poisoned or pancaked.
Unfortunately for the exterminator, just as I was considering making an appointment, Billy, my fearless husband, pulled into our driveway, which made me ask for a business card out of politeness instead.
1.How did the author feel at the sight of the exterminator?
A. Frightened. B. Disappointed.
C. Puzzled. D. Surprised.
2.What did the exterminator offer the author if she accepted his service?
A. A discount. B. A group rate.
C. An iPad for free. D. A free pesticide.
3.Why was the author worried about the pesticide?
A. It might cause frightening images.
B. It might harm her family and surroundings.
C. It might be too expensive for her to afford.
D. It might have no effect on unwanted visitors.
4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Billy saw his neighbors cheated by the exterminator.
B. The author is sure to phone the salesman later.
C. The author had planned to buy the pesticide before Billy appeared.
D. Billy made up his mind to purchase the pesticide.

I go out of my way to say“thank you”to my partner frequently,and he’s the same way.We were both raised by parents who valued politeness,and more than that,I want to do all those little things that psychologists say help couples stay together.Expressing gratitude（感谢）is one of those things,so a quick“thanks”seems like an easy one.
But according to a recent study,we’re not at all typical.The study looked at over l,000 recordings of casual conversations among families and close friends.In only about one out of 20 times were expressions of thanks observed.Phrases that meant“thanks”but weren’t a direct translation of the word were counted,including physical gestures of thanks.
The researchers looked at a wide variety of people from different places,representing eight languages:Polish,Russian,Italy,English,Murrinh-patha (an Aboriginal language),Cha’palaa,Lao and Siwu.
The Brits thanked people close to them the most,about 14.5 percent of the time,and close behind them were the Italians at 13.5 percent.The Murrinh-patha came next at 4.5 percent and following them were the Russians,the Polish,the Laotians and the Siwu speakers.The lowest?Well,the Cha'palaa speakers of Ecuador don’t have a word for“thank you”at all.
As the linguists explained,“Expressing thanks,in some cultures,is more of a linguistic tradition than a true expression of feelings.In cultures where thanks are less often said,it’s because social cooperation is taken for granted,and‘thank you’ isn’t really needed or necessary.”
The idea that you don’t need to thank others because it’s assumed that you’re appreciative is beautiful.But it is a bit hard for me to accept.So I’ll keep saying“thanks”as frequently as I do.But as a frequent traveler,I’ll keep in mind to watch the local custom and follow suit.
1.What might be psychologists’ opinion about expressing thank?
A. It can show a person’s values.
B. It is passed down from parents.
C. It is a little and unnecessary thing.
D. It can contribute to close relationship.
2.What is typical among family members according to the study?
A. They say thanks at any time.
B. They seldom express thanks.
C. They often show thanks using gestures.
D. They often use indirect translation of thanks.
3.Who never say“thank you”?
A. The Cha’palaa. B. The Polish.
C. The Italians. D. The Russians.
4.What is mainly talked about in the text?
A. People thank close friends and family less.
B. Family members don’t need to thank each other.
C. Close friends have different ways to express thanks.
D. Different cultures have different ways to express thanks.
