Some British and American people like to invite friends for a meal at home. You should not be upset if your English friends don’t invite you home. It doesn’t mean they don’t like you!
Dinner parties usually start between 7and 8 pm and end at about 11pm. Ask your hosts what time you should arrive. It’s polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a gift.

Usually the evening starts with drinks and snacks. Do you want to be extra polite? Say how much you like the room, or the pictures on the wall. But remember –it’s not polite to ask how much things cost. In many families, the husband sits at one end of the table and the wife sits at the other end, they eat with their guests.
You’ll probably start the meal with soup or something small, then you’ll have meat or fish with vegetables, and then dessert, followed by coffee. It’s polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want to. Did you enjoy the evening? Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short “thank you” letter.

The word \first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant
hunting wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their spare time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during that time the best ones can make a lot of money. For example, a professional footballer in England makes more than ￡3000 a year. The stars make a lot more. International golf and tennis champions(冠军) can make more than ￡50000 in a year. Of course, only a few sportsmen can make as much money as that. It is only possible in sports for individuals(个人), like golf, tennis and motor- racing.
Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is this: the stars can make more money from advertising(广告) than from sport. An advertisement for sports equipment does not simply say \things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their names or a photo of them and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people's spare time. 56. A \＿＿＿.
A. likes sports very much B. makes money by playing a sport C. makes a lot of money D. plays a sport for a number of years 57. The word \＿＿＿.
A. organized games B. professional games
C. hunting wild animals and birds D. games played during people's spare time 58. \＿＿＿.
A. played at special times B. which help people to get good exercise C. play by organizations
D. in which the players know what they can and can not do 59. An international golf champion can make ＿＿＿ in a year.
39
A. more than ￡50000 B. more than ￡3000 C. ￡50000 D. ￡3000 60. \
This sentence suggests that ＿＿＿. A. some people have sports as means (手段) of making money B. sport of today isn't so interesting as that of the past C. sport has become advertisement
D. people no longer play a sport in their spare time

Thirty years ago I worked in a company. My job was to sell the cars. I was young and strong and I had been to most parts of the world and I spent one fifth of my time in the trains or planes. I liked such a life and sometimes I called myself “traveler”.
But one day I got into trouble. It was a cold morning. It blew heavily and the ground was covered with thick snow outside. I was still in bed though it was nine. I finished a long journey the day before and decided to have a good rest. Suddenly the telephone rang and my manager told me to fly to New York to take part in an important meeting. I had to get up and after a quick breakfast I hurried to the airport. The taxi went slowly and I missed the first flight. I had to take the next one. It meant I would wait for nearly five hours in the waiting-room. But five hours later a passenger said the information showed there was a bomb in our plane and the policemen were looking for it. And another five hours passed and most passengers lost their patience before we were allowed to get on the plane. At the entrance each passenger and their baggage had to be examined. A young man who seemed a soldier shouted at the policemen at the entrance, “If I had a gun in my baggage, I would shoot you two hours ago!” 61．The writer called himself “traveler” because he .
