阅读理解（每题2分，共20分）
阅读下列短文并完成后面的阅读练习。从每题的A、B、C三个选项中选出一个正确答案，并将选项字母填入相应空白处。
In the UK, in business situations, when you meet someone for the first time you shake hands and say, “How do you do?”. This is not really a question, and the reply to it is another greeting such as “How do you do?” or “Hello”or “I’m very pleased to meet you” or, if you have met the person sometime before, “It’s good to see you
again”.
You don’t shake hands every time you meet someone, you just greet them. If you are invited to someone’s house for dinner, it is usual to tak e a present– some chocolates or flowers or, if you know them quite well, a bottle of wine. If you do not know the host well, don’t be the last person to leave. Telephone the next day to thank the host for the meal. English people don’t like to talk about p ersonal things, and tend to avoid religion, politics and money.
Good topics for small talk are the weather, holidays, weekend activities, gardens and architecture, especially houses and homes. When you go to a pub or bar, it’s usual to take turns to buy a drink for everyone in your group and pay for the drinks when you get them from the bar and before you drink them.

The chances that you will be a victim of violent crime are low. But you can avoid risk in the following ways.
AT HOME
? You should make sure your house or flat is secure. Always lock the door from the inside at night, but you must keep the key nearby, so that you can use it to get out quickly if there is a fire.
? You must never give keys to workmen as they can easily make copies.
? If you wake up and hear a burglar, stay quietly in bed. Pretend you are asleep.
If you feel more confident, switch on the light and make a lot of noise; even if you are on your own you should call out loudly to an imaginary companion, so that the
burglar thinks you are not alone and runs away. You should have a phone or a mobile in your bedroom to alert the police immediately.
? If you come home and think you see signs of a break-in, you shouldn’t go in, the burglar may be inside. You should go to a neighbour and call the police.
ON THE STREET
At night:
? Always walk facing the traffic, so that a car cannot pull up behind you.
? You mustn’t go through parks or woods.
? If you think someone is following you, cross the road one or two times. If he or she continues to follow you, go to a pub or other public place.
? Always carry your bag close to you, but carry your house keys in your pocket so that you can open the door quickly. If someone attacks you - remember your safety is more important than your property.
