　?、?閱讀理解

　　If you are invited to a formal dinner party in Paris，remember that the French have their own way of doing things，and that even your finest manners may not be “correct” by the French custom.For example，if you think showing up promptly at the time given on the invitation，armed with gifts of wine and roses，praising your hostess on her cooking，laughing heartily at the host’s jokes and then doing something to help the hostess will make you the perfect guest，you are wrong.

　　Here Madame Nora Chabal，the marketing director of the Ritz Hotel in Paris，explained how it works.

　　The first duty of the guest is to respond to the invitation within 48 hours.And，the guest may not ask to bring a guest because the hostess has chosen her own.

　　Flowers sent in advance are the preferred gift.They may also be sent afterwards with a thank-you note.It is considered a very bad form to arrive with a gift of flowers in hand，thereby forcing the hostess to deal with finding a vase when she is so busy.The type of flowers sent has a code of its own，too.One must never send chrysanthemums because they are considered too humble(卑微的)a flower for the occasion.Carnations are considered bad luck，and calla lilies are too reminiscent(緬懷往事的)of funerals.A bouquet of red roses is a declaration of romantic purpose.Don’t send those unless you mean it，and never to a married hostess.And though the French love wine，you must never bring a bottle to a dinner party.You may offer a box of chocolates which the hostess will pass after dinner with coffee.

　　If an invitation is for eight o’clock，the thoughtful guest arrives at 8∶15.Guests who arrive exactly on time or early are thoughtless ones who are not giving the hostess those last few minutes she needs to deal with details and crisis.The “correct” guest arrives between 15 to 20 minutes after the hour because dinner will be served exactly 30 minutes past the time on the invitation.

　　1．If you are invited to a formal dinner party in Paris，you’d better ________.

　　A．reply to it within two days and send flowers in advance

　　B．arrive exactly on time at the dinner party

　　C．bring a bottle of good wine to the dinner party

　　D．telephone to ask if you could bring a good friend to the party

　　解析：B項與最后一段意思相悖。C項與第四段倒數第二句意思相悖。D項與第三段末句意思相悖。只有A項與原文第三、四段首句意思相符。

　　答案：A

　　2．Which of the following is TRUE about sending flowers?

　　A．If someone is dead，send carnations.

　　B．If someone is ill in hospital，send calla lilies.

　　C．If you are invited to a dinner party，send red roses to the hostess.

　　D．If you are in love with someone，send red roses.

　　解析：辨別正誤題。依據為第四段中的“A bouquet of red roses is a declaration of romantic purpose.”一句。同時可以由此判定C項不正確。carnation象征噩運，不宜送人，故A項錯誤。calla lilies會讓人聯想起葬禮，很不吉利，故不能送病人，所以B項亦錯。

　　答案：D

　　3．If you are too busy to send flowers in advance，you should ________.

　　A．bring a bouquet of flowers when you go to the party

　　B．send a bouquet of flowers afterwards with a thank-you note

　　C．bring a bottle of wine instead of a bouquet of flowers

　　D．telephone to tell the hostess the truth

　　解析：細節理解題。見第四段第二句“They may also be sent afterwards with a thank-you note.”

　　答案：B

　　4．The text is mainly about ________.

　　A．how to hold a dinner party

　　B．how to send flowers

　　C．how to behave well at a French dinner party

　　D．how different countries have different manners

　　解析：主旨大意題。全文通篇都在講參加法國宴會的禮節；首段是關于宴會上的“正確”做法，第三段關于答復邀請，第四段講如何送禮，末段告訴你何時赴約。故C項為最佳答案。

　　答案：C
