Good Table Manners
　　Manners play an important part in making a favorable impression at the dinner table.Here are some general rules:
　　Napkin（餐巾）use
　　The meal begins when the host unfolds his or her napkin.This is your signal to do the same,so place your napkin on your lap.Unfold it completely if it is a small napkin,or in half,lengthwise（纵向地）,if it is a large dinner napkin.
　　If you need to leave the table during the meal,place your napkin on your chair as a signal to your server that you will be returning.Once the meal is over,place your napkin neatly on the table to the right of your dinner plate.Do not refold it.
　　Use a napkin only for your mouth.Never use it for your nose,face or forehead.
　　Use of utensils（餐具）
　　Start with the knife,fork or spoon furthest from your plate,and work your way in,using one utensil for each course.
　　If soup is served,remember to spoon away from yoursefl.This helps stop the drips.Do not put the entire soup spoon in your mouth.Instead,fill a soup spoon about 75 per cent with soup,and sip（啜饮）it from the side noiselessly.
　　After finishing dinner,place the knife and fork parallel to one another across the plate with the knife alade facing inward toward the plate.
　　Using your fingers
　　Here's a list of finger foods:sandwiches,cookies,small fruits or berries with stems,French fries and potato chips,and hamburgers.
　　Chew（咀嚼）with your mouth closed and don't make noise;don't talk with your mouth full.
　　Bread must be broken with your hands.It is never cut with a knife.
　　Don't pick something out of your teeth.Instead,excuse yourself to the bathroom.
　　If possible,try not to cough at the table.

A Debate on the English Language
　　A measure declaring English the national language is under intense debate in the United States.The US Senate passed two declarations last week.One calls English the nation's official language and the other says it is the “common and unifying（统一的）”tongue.But Americans found themselves divided on the issue.
　　Since people worldwide know that most Americans speak only English,many can't understand why the issue is so controversial（有争议的）.
　　“The discussion is related to fears of immigration issues,”says Dick Tucker,a social scientist at Pittsburgh's Carnegie Mellon University.“It's related to a worry about the changing demography（人口统计）of the US.It's a worry about who will continue to have political and economic influence.”
　　In fact,the notion of protecting the language has been kicked around almost since the nation's founding.John Adams lobbied（游说）in 1780 for the creation of a national academy to correct and improve the English language.But his proposal died,since lawmakers saw it as a royalist（保皇主义者）attempt to define personal behavior.
　　Since then,the country hasn't had a national language,but the idea of recognizing the special status of English lived on.
　　The emotions surrounding language resurface（再次浮现）not because people feel comfortable with English.It is more about the discomfort many Americans feel with the new languages,says Walt Wolfram,a professor at North Carolina State University.
　　“Language is never about language,”he says.
　　According to the 2000 US Census Bureau report,of 209 million Americans over 18 years old,172 million speak only English at home.About 37 million speak languages other than English.Among them,6.5 million speak poor English and 3.1 million don't speak English at all.
　　41.What are the two declarations concerned with?
　　A.The status of the English language.
　　B.The protection of new languages.
　　C.The rights to speak one's mother tongue.
　　D.The improvement of the English language.
　　42.Who suggested in the 18th century that English should be protected?
　　A.Walt Wolfram.
　　B.John Adams.
　　C.Royalists.
　　D.Dick Tucker.
　　43.Which of the following is the current debate NOT related to?
　　A.The immigration issues.
　　B.The changing demography.
　　C.The worry about the new languages.
　　D.The US's military strength.
　　44.Which statement is true according to the 2000 US Census Bureau report?
　　A.172 million Americans speak only English in their work places.
　　B.37 million Americans speak English.
　　C.209 million Americans are above the age of 18.
　　D.6.5 million Americans speak good English.
　　45.The phrase“kicked around”（paragraph 4）could be best replaced by
　　A.“invented”.
　　B.“formed”.
　　C.“shaped”.
　　D.“discussed”.
