But thanks to etiquette (禮儀) expert and author William Hanson, we realize that little has changed during the past 100 years. In a BBC radio program, Hanson released a list of mon words used in British English that could reveal whether a person is mon or fashionable. And yet here es the interesting part: While some of us might go through life using fancy words, dressing in ways that make us appear more welloff than we really are, there are wealthy people in the world who try to hide their riches because they want to be seen as normal instead of showy. Beatrice, for example, is a New Yorker who inherited (繼承) millions of dollars. She told The New York Times that she has a habit of removing the price tags (價(jià)簽) from her clothes so her house staff don39。t see them and feel unfortable. We don39。t want that 39。Wow39。. said Scott, also a New Yorker, who had just inherited over $50 million. We39。re just not the type of people who wear it on our sleeve.（1）What does William Hanson find? A.People failed to judge others39。 manner.B.People judge others by their way of talking.C.People tend to use more polite words.D.People meet impolite persons frequently.（2）What do rich people prefer to do? A.To hide their riches.B.To earn more money.C.To think highly of their wealth.D.To judge others by their wealth.（3）Why did Beatrice remove the price tags on her clothes? A.To show off her fashion sense.B.To change people39。s attitude to rich people.C.To pretend to be normal.D.To avoid making people around her unfortable.（4）What does it in the last sentence mean? A.The price tag.B.The brand label.C.The inheritance contract.D.The Times magazine.【答案】（1）B（2）A（3）D（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，揭示如今人們依然會從你的說話用詞上來判斷你是“普通的”還是“時(shí)髦的”。（1考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“But thanks to etiquette (禮儀) expert and author William Hanson, we realize that little has changed during the past 100 years.”可知，William Hanson認(rèn)為我們現(xiàn)在仍舊如同以前一樣通過人們講話的方式來判斷一個人。故選B。（2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“…there are wealthy people in the world who try to hide their riches because they want to be seen as 39。normal39。 instead of 39。showy39。”可知，富人更喜歡隱藏起他們的財(cái)富。故選A。（3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“She told The New York Times that she has a habit of removing the price tags (價(jià)簽) from her clothes so her house staff don39。t see them and feel unfortable.”可知，Beatrice除掉衣服上的價(jià)格標(biāo)簽是為了避免讓她周圍的人感到不舒服。故選D。（4）考查代詞指代。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的內(nèi)容可知，Beatrice除掉衣服上的價(jià)格標(biāo)簽是為了避免讓她周圍的人感到不舒服。因此推斷Scott說：我們不想要那些“Wow”，我們不是那種袖子上戴著商標(biāo)的人。此處的“we”指的是Beatrice和Scott，故it指的是價(jià)格標(biāo)簽。故案選A。【點(diǎn)
