Generally speaking, a British is widely regarded as a quiet, shy and conservative (保守) person who is 1 only among those with whom he is familiar. When a stranger

is present, he often seems nervous, 2 embarrassed. You have to take a commuter train (通勤车) any morning or evening to 3 the truth of this. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or 4 off in a corner; hardly anybody talks, since to do so would be considered quite offensive (冒犯的).

5 , there is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior, which, once

6 , makes the offender immediately the object of

7 .

One of the few things we can say about the British with certainty is that a British takes a(n) 8 to the discussion of their weather and that, if given a chance,

he will talk about it 9 . Some people argue that it is because the British weather 10 follows forecast and thus becomes a source of interest to everyone. This may

be so. Certainly a British cannot have much 11 in the weathermen, whose predictions, in many cases, 12 to be wrong! The man in the street seems to be

as accurate – or as inaccurate – as the weathermen in his 13 .

Foreigners may be surprised at the number of references 14 weather that the British make to each other in the course of a single day. Very often conversational greetings are 15 by comments on the weather. “Nice day, isn’t it?” “Beautiful day!” may well be heard instead of “Good morning, how are you?” 16 the foreigner may consider this exaggerated (夸大) and comic, it is worthwhile pointing out that it could be used to his 17 . If he wants to start a conversation with a British but is 18 to know where to begin, he could do well to mention the state of the weather. It is a(n) 19 subject to which a response may well

be 20 of even the most reserved of the British.
